on tuesday, oracleasb, quicknow and i went to see wordplay - which i'd wanted to see since asb and i saw trailers featuring jon stewart before thank you for smoking - and it was a truly fantastic little documentary. compelling, funny, and genuinely charming without being saccharine. i can't recommend it enough; it's possibly the best movie i've seen all year.

i desperately want the old 97s live ep that's been released in the itunes music store, and i am pooooooor. sadness. stupid graduate school. stupid poverty.
THURSDAY. top five. etc. top five best songs to seduce someone to. whether it's seduction to a one night stand or seduction in a lifelong romance. whatever. interpret how you will. sexy songs.
my list [files on my webspace, right-click-save, comment if you download, kthx]:1. "let's get it on", marvin gaye. so. there you go. that's your free pass. you can include it on your own lists if you want, or you can say, "min included it, that counts for me", and have a bonus spot! the number one with a bullet greatest seduction song ever. for when you're feeling OBVIOUS.
2. "bodies", soul miner's daughter. soul miner's daughter is a now-defunct georgia band, and they mostly played the sort of crunchy hippie folk rock you'd expect from an athens band of the late '90s, but this track. oh, this track. it's a sultry, sweaty, swingy little a cappella number from their one and only cd, and it's full of double (and single) entendre and it's great. the counterpoint on the line i know that god was with us, girl, i heard you call his name makes my knees weak every time i hear it.
3. "birds flying away", mason jennings. it's actually sort of a creepy song, but the lyrics i remember climbing up those shoulders, coming up under you like a lion, coming down like we were dying give me the shivers every time.
4. "please pass you", whit hill & the postcards. please pass the salt, please pass the sugar, please pass you.
5. "designs on you", the old 97s though i do wish you'd come over but i'm warning you if you do, i'd be lying if i said i didn't have designs on you. dear rhett: OF COURSE I WILL COME OVER. love, min.
OKAY, NOW YOU GO.
