I have to share this delicious musical cheese. Two of the CDs I ordered a few days ago arrived on Friday afternoon. You know, the Party ones... I squealed like a girly-girl when I checked the mailbox. Why in the world did I get rid of these albums when I had them back in the '90s? I love them. What did I think I was, cool or something? I'm so not cool. If you want to just listen to the cheese, click on the link. It will give you an option to stream the song (play it off the website) or download it to your hard drive.
Spiders and SnakesI remember when Mary-Lou said, 'You wanna walk me home from school?' Well, I said, 'Yes, I do.' She said, 'I don't have to go right home, and I would kinda like to be alone some if you would.' I said, 'Me too.'
This is a cover of a song originally by Jim Stafford. They de-countrified it and made it even more cheeky. I love this song so much that it's ridiculous. I should be ashamed, but I'm not. All this shit is the definition of a guilty pleasure, but I just can't bring myself to feel guilty.
I Gotcha'Word is born. You got it goin' on. Hey, didn't mean to turn you on. Just because I want you, don't tease me, please me, hug me squeeze me. Girl, never leave me.
OMG - the bass line, dudes. I had completely forgotten about this song, but when it started playing, I could sing along to every single word. Pathetic or super cool? Wait, don't answer that.
Independent WomanHe suggested that we should go outside. He dazzled me with money and his fancy ride. He said he'd take me away and buy me diamond rings. Thanks, but not thanks. I got my own thing.
As an eleven-year-old girl, I thought this song was the coolest thing in the world. I still think it's pretty awesome.
I Want YouYou say you don't like it when a guy comes on strong. Who the hell are you foolin'? You know you're wrong. So, let me kiss ya. I won't forget ya.
Why in the hell didn't have I have a crush on Damon when I was younger? I was all about Chase, but Damon was so frickin' cool. He's the lead vocal on this song.
Out of My HeartI walk around, walk all through the crowd and look around. Try not to think about how much I want you and how it feels inside. I said no one would ever hold me down but I don't know if you were around.
Okay, for real. I actually don't think of this song as cheese. It's just so damn good. It's always been a favorite of mine. Again, why in the world did I get rid of my original copies of this stuff? I still love all of it.
Oh, and I just want to say that I finally picked up Eclipse, the third book in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. I'm 200 pages in, and Edward Cullen can kiss my ass. He's a manipulative, passive-aggressive bastard. And here I liked him so much in the first two novels. You fail, Edward. I have faith that my flist will not throw e-shoes at me for offending the fangirl base. Mainly because half of you probably have no idea what I'm talking about, and the other half is chill. Or at least I hope so.
I have to make a birthday cake for Jason's grandmother tomorrow. Boo to baking. It's a double chocolate layer cake. My reward for slaving away in the kitchen and making it from scratch is to have a big, honkin' piece of it.
