love is just a kiss away.
From the "random things about myself that I've noticed" files: I tend to get really fixated on certain songs and I feel kind of weird about it. For example, right now my most listened to tracks on Last.fm are "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face" by Coldplay (AHHH HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS SONG BEFORE LAST WEEK, COLDPLAY, WHY ARE YOU GROWING ON ME LIKE A FUNGUS) and "Before You Walk Out of My Life" by Monica. Last week it was "Gimme Shelter" (yet another example of a song I've heard my entire life and kind of been like, "Oh, that's cool!" without knowing who it was by). I feel weird about the obsessive listening because it's like I get to a point where I say to myself, "I should be sick of this song by now! Why am I not sick of this song yet?" and I try to listen to something else but I just go back to it again and again.
So that kind of provides a segue into Day 23 (whatever tickles your fancy): a mix, featuring a bunch of R&B from the '90s mostly due to that Monica song. The track listing (in alphabetical order by song, with approximate years of release):
1. A Rose is Still a Rose, Aretha Franklin (1997)
2. Another Sad Love Song, Toni Braxton (1993)
3. Before You Walk Out of My Life, Monica (1994)
4. Don't Let Go, En Vogue (1997)
5. Endless Love, Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey (1993)
6. Fantasy, Mariah Carey (1995)
7. 5 Steps, Dru Hill (1996)
8. For the Cool in You, Babyface (1994)
9. For You I Will, Monica (1996)
10. I Get Lonely, Janet Jackson (1998)
11. I Swear, All-4-One (1993)
12. If I Ever Fall in Love, Shai (1992)
13. Killing Me Softly, The Fugees (1996)
14. Kiss from a Rose, Seal (1995)

In random tech news that only I will probably care about: Zune HD is coming out with a 64GB model next week! I've pretty much decided to get the 32GB one but OMG, shiny.
