music meme
Dec. 11th, 2003 10:33 pmOkay, so I don't usually do the "list [foo] that [bar]" memes, but I'm in that kind of mood. (This one's via
midorigrrrl, who I'm not sure if I actually know or not.)
Reminds you of ex lovers:
Brian Eno: Another Green World
Brian Joseph.
The Breeders: "Drivin' on 9"
10,000 Maniacs: "Trouble Me"
Shriekback: "Faded Flowers"
Makes you cry:
Not much, although "Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Straits can really get me if I'm in the right mood.
Makes you smile:
Makes you laugh:
[I think I'll skip these. since I dunno.]
You never want to hear again:
Most Weird Al. Sorry, he's kind of a one-shot for me. Funny once, and then I'm done. That's true of most of that kind of thing...
Reminds you of your childhood:
Folk music. Arlo Guthrie. Peter, Paul and Mary. Pete Seeger.
Sums up your teenage years:
Depeche Mode. Devo.
You want to get married to:
We played Dead Can Dance and Shriekback and some other stuff. Does that count?
You like to wake up to:
Nothing, really.
This wasn't included, but it's a better question:
You like to fall asleep to:
Brian Eno: Another Green World and the b-side to Before and After Science
Pieter Nooten and Michael Brook: Sleeps with the Fishes
Brian Eno (and others): Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks
Brian Eno and Harold Budd: The Pearl and Plateaux of Mirror
hOEDH: Hymnus
...lots more. I have lots of sleepy music.
You like out of your parents record collection:
Arlo Guthrie. Pete Seeger. I kinda like PP+M, but got a little tired of them.
You love but you wouldn't know about if it wasn't for a friend:
Robyn Hitchcock. Wire, and especially Wire side projects like He Said and A.C.Marias.
David Bowie, of course. Lots of others.
the_muted_horn is responsible for much of this, and more I'm sure I'm forgetting.
You love the video more than the tune:
Nothing that comes to mind, which is mostly due to not watching a lot of videos lately.
Reminds you of your first crush:
Old Pet Shop Boys. Introspective, in particular.
Or "Sister Christian" by, I think, Night Ranger. Oh the shame. Sixth-grade slow-dancing...
Makes you think of sex:
Pretty much everything, with a few exceptions.
Makes you think of being alone:
Plateaux of Mirror
Are (almost) embarrassed to admit you like:
Freakin' t.A.T.u. So catchy! I am filled with shame.
You love to sing:
Skinny Puppy: "Worlock" Lots of other things. Basically everything. "Boss Drum," by the Shamen. Awyeah.
