Tagged by Josephine (I like the spin [no pun intended, seriously!] she put on the meme); and also spotted at Debauchette’s.
List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now, shaping your
springsummer. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.
Because I like to bend rules when I can, and because I can be ridiculously uptight and indecisive about music, I’m doing two versions of this: a general one, and a “songs I like to pole dance to lately” one, in keeping with Josephine’s mod.
General version
- She’s Like the Wind - Patrick Swayze (yes!!)
- Bitch - Meredith Brooks
- Ride - Liz Phair (resurrected from summer 2003)
- Human Nature - Madonna
- Tonight and the Rest of My Life - Nina Gordon (I’ve been having some weird synchronicity going on with this song lately)
- Suffer for Fashion - Of Monreal
- Bunny Ain’t No Kind of Rider - Of Montreal (I found it impossible to pick just one Of Montreal song)
Pole dancing version
- Come Undone - Duran Duran
- Who Makes You Feel - Dido
- Get Me Bodied - Beyonce
- Pour Some Sugar On Me - Def Leppard (always!)
- Party People - Nelly
- Precious Things - Tori Amos (a favorite since 8th grade, I had forgotten about it for a while; then Ren put it on a CD for me of “feminist-approved stripper music” [heh] and I thought, “Damn, that’s a good idea!”)
- Uninvited - Alanis Morrissette
I love this meme because I get to find new (to me) music and look it up on iTunes.
Oh yeah, the tagging part. Let’s see, I tag…
- Jenny
- Ren
- J. Brotherlove
- Thomas (his list will definitely be full of stuff I’ve never heard of!)
- Tiffany
- Tara
- Sara
…and anyone else who wants to do it, of course.

Dude.
I am SO not letting this slide: Patrick fucking Swayze???
But okay.
I should talk, as I played “Mandy” by Barry Manilow on my ipod while mowing the lawn.
(Tell her the rest, Kim!)
Uh … I got teary listening to it!
I LOVE Precious Things SO MUCH!
Gonna have to go put it on….
Bitch, Human Nature, Party People. As we say in my part of the world - “CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOWWWWWWWWWWWWN!!!!”
Kim,
Yeah, after what you just admitted? No fuckin’ way do you have any grounds to ride MY ass about listening to the awesomest song from one of the awesomest movies of all time.
And if anybody wants to debate whether Dirty Dancing really is one of the awesomest movies of all time? Well. I don’t think I can speak to you!
Almost made the list: “Amanda” by Boston.
Re: Dirty Dancing. I listened to Be My Baby on XM60s the other day.
I need to steal this meme!
Jen,
I was going to tag you, but I didn’t know if you wanted your blog linked.
