Helen Dixon told me to do it...

This was actually surprisingly hard. I haven't been listening to music much lately - I've kinda had jez's itunes on in the background, but I've not proactively chosen much to listen to myself.

List seven songs you are into right now, no matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

• Affirmation by Savage Garden - every time I hear this song I cheer up a bit and feel more positive about life.


• I'm Shipping Up To Boston by The Dropkick Murphys - it's my garou song - I play it to get me in the mood prior to game. It also always gets me physically bouncing and energised.


• The January Man by Rachel Unthank - wildrogue - it's not Raven Girl! I've moved on to the January Man! Rachel Unthank and Winterset are the nicest musical gift I've ever been given and I am endlessly grateful to Elle for introducing me to them.


• Dream On by Aerosmith - this is in the aftermath of having seen Aerosmith live in Hyde Park. I've never been a big Aerosmith fan, but Dream On was the one song which I really did lose myself in, and hearing the crowd singing it in unison...


• Silent All These Years by Tori Amos - wraithwitch and anysbryd going to see her play live appears to have reminded me that Tori exists. I've always had a vague guilt about liking Tori Amos - like it's some kind of angsty alternative cliche - rather like reading Neil Gaiman. I still own most of her albums...


• Classic FM - that doesn't count, right? But it's what I've had playing in the background lately. A lot.


• And finally, Independent Love Song by Scarlet was the last song I played on my itunes prior to today, I think after trying to explain why I liked it a lot to bringeroflight whilst driving him home one night.

I'm meant to tag five other people and I'm not sure who. Erm. ksirafai, pierot, wildrogue, adze and anysbryd.
