Soooooooong meeeeeeeeme.
1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload/link) 5 songs you love that begin with that letter.
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.
I can't resist a meme that enables the stealing sharing of music, so I asked
sarken to prompt me. She gave me an M.
M IS HARD, OKAY. I LOVE ALL THE SONGS. And so, as per usual, I will break the rules of the meme just to be ornery.
However, KNOW THIS: I am deliberately leaving off Munich (Editors) and Mutiny, I Promise You (The New Pornographers) because they are already on ficmixes and you all know them both already. (And if you don't, you can comment and I'll post them anyway. :P)
Monday Morning Cold & My Hips (Erin McKeown)
The first: my Monday morning anthem. (7:50 I'm stopped behind a school bus filled with pubes
Wouldn't it be funny, I think, to sell the little fuckers 'ludes? WORD.) The second: a song about being a woman.
Mood to Burn Bridges, Margaret vs. Pauline, and Middle Cyclone (Neko Case)
Three very, very different songs from Neko. The first one is fun and funky, while the second two are moodier, prettier. And "Middle Cyclone..." i can't give up actin' tough/it's all that i'm made of/can't scrape together quite enough/to ride the bus to the outskirts of the fact that i need love. I...yeah.
Marrow and Modulation (Ani Difranco)
"Marrow"'s chorus just gets me every time, while "Modulation" makes poetry from music. Yes, you read that right: poetry from music, not the opposite.
Marry Me a Little (Company)
Ugh, I LOVE this musical, and this is one of my favorite songs. Cynical, romantic, and completely dysfunctional all at the same time.
Mood Swing (Luscious Jackson) and The Moneymaker (Rilo Kiley)
Two (sexy) dancing songs. Just to balance out all the srs bsns above.
