I'm so used to Brian Eno being a crossword answer staple that I forget he's an actual human being sometimes.

I saw this meme on twitter about picking 20 songs that best represent you/speak to you, no repeating artists, and I think this is my 20!

[Spoiler (click to open)]1. Hymne a l'amour - Edith Piaf
2. Hounds of Love - Kate Bush
3. Lady of Shalott - Loreena McKennitt
4. Here's To You - Joan Baez
5. Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen
6. Man in the Long Black Coat - Bob Dylan
7. Sinnerman - Nina Simone
8. Ne Me Quitte Pas - Jacques Brel
9. Fourth of July - Sufjan Stevens
10. Pyar Kiya to Darna Kya - Lata Mangeshkar
11. Likhe Jo Khat Tujhe - Mohammad Rafi
12. Fast Car - Tracy Chapman
13. Take Me to Church - Hozier
14. Into My Arms - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
15. Dancing in the Dark - Bruce Springsteen
16. Caribbean Blue - Enya
17. Video Games - Lana del Rey
18. Francis Forever - Mitski
19. Papaoutai - Stromae
20. Venus in Furs - The Velvet Underground, Nico

Thanks! It was a lot of fun putting this together. It's also entertaining to see other people's lists. I love memes that encourage people talking about their favorite/formative books, movies, shows, music, etc.

I am trying to figure out who is Nicki trying to appeal to with her new song. I suppose it's supposed to evoke Pink Friday but it feels flat.

Okay, so I woke up the other day with this song in my head

and yeah, why are brains so weird?? lol. I haven't heard it in a very long time, but my dad used to like it a lot. No idea what prompted me to think of it - I did talk to my dad fairly recently, but it was like a week before this. Maybe it was playing somewhere and I just didn't consciously clock it? lol.

Otherwise, still listening to new Sufjan... wonder if he'll do another single before the album drops in a month.
