List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're 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.

1. Tori Amos- Silent All These Years.
"Years go by will I still be waiting for somebody else to understand? Years go by if I'm stripped of my beauty and the orange clouds raining in head. Years go by will I choke on my tears till finally there is nothing left? One more casualty you know we're too easy easy easy"
-Just a beautiful song

2. The Veronicas- 4.Ever.
"Come with me tonight we could make the night last forever, come on baby we aint gonna live forever let me show you all the things that we could do, you know you wanna be together
and I wanna spend the night with you"
- It's Mindy's fault that I love this song so much now. It really has no significance in my life except that I heard it at EVERY keremy party mindy and I attended last year, and it will forever remind me of the Mindah.

3. Sin With Sebastian- Shut Up And Sleep With Me.
"Don't you listen to those old conventions, no try to suppress your real intentions, you're open minded, at least that's what you keep on sayin', don't be afraid of doing what you're best at"
- This song is just funny

4. Regina Spektor- Braille.
"She was lying on the floor and counting stretch marks, she hadn't been a virgin and he, hadn't been a god, so she names the baby Elvis, to make up for the royalty he lacked"
- Her music requires thought and I really like that. it's not simple pop music, and I need that sometimes. I also like how she compares stretch marks to braille.

5. Bob Dylan- Lay Lady Lay.
"Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed. Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead. I long to see you in the morning light. I long to reach for you in the night. Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead"
- This is a significant song for both Abby and I. We want a big brass bed so we can lay in it and sing this song to eachother.

6. Ani DiFranco- Sorry I Am.
"And I don't know what it is about you, I just know it's not what it was, I don't know why red fades before blue it just does, and I don't know what it is about me, that I just can't keep still, I keep thinking someday I will make this all up to you, and maybe someday I will"
- This is my song for Mindy, Ani puts my feelings into words so well.

7. Melissa Etheridge & Indigo Girls- You Can Sleep While I Drive.
"You know I've seen it before, this mist that covers your eyes, you've been looking for something that's not in your life, my intentions are true, won't you take me with you
and baby you can sleep while I drive"
- Reminds me of just wanting to pack up and move away, something that has been appealing to me more and more. i almost can't wait for college to be over so i can get out of this state.

i'm not tagging anyone, if you want to do it, do it.

ps- ani has a new album coming out august 6th!
