Random Writings...
I'm gunna do this once a week from now one.
Every Tuesday night, I will put my winamp playlist on random, and the first 10 songs that come up I will post here alongside some colorful commentary per usual.
Try to enjoy it, this is simply a way of entertaining myself to be honest...
1. Alice In Chains "Nutshell"
Quite possibly my favorite song from my favorite band. People have often asked me who my favorite musical acts of all time are, and I will usually answer with the following:
2. Madonna "Papa Don't Preach"
I was hoping to avoid any embarassing songs, but I will be honest when doing this. My mom and dad owned "The Immaculate Collection" by her, and I found myself bobbing my head to most of the songs on it at the age of 8. "Borderline," "Get Into The Groove," and "Deeper and Deeper" are my faves.
3. Jay Z f. Mary J. Blige "Can't Knock The Hustle"
Not much to say other than this is a rap classic.
4. Ambulance LTD "Young Urban"
It's amazing this CD didn't catch on. I absolutely love it and it's one of my favorites since 2000. People have gotten into similar stuff such as Belle and Sebastian or The Guillemots, but no one has seemed to pick up on Ambulance LTD. Their best song is "Anecdote" by a long shot.
5. Tracy Lawrence "Paint Me A Birmingham"
I do listen to country music as well folks. Tracy Lawrence is the most depressing country music artist of all time. He played last week at The Mohegan Sun, but I passed up the oppurtunity to see him. I probably would have cried when he performed "I See It Now" for some dumb reason. That song gives me the chills. "Paint Me a Birmingham" is not great if you ask me. I would rank it behind: "Used To The Pain," "I See It Now," "Time Marches On," "If The World Had a Front Porch," and "My Little Texas Tornado."
6. Xscape "Just Kickin It"
As soon as this song comes on, I feel like I'm back at the skating rink we went to in 7th grade holding hands with Tiffany Verette and waiting for the next oppurtunity to take her behind the Ms. Pacman machine and act like I know how to kiss. I enjoy 90's R&B but don't really dig this track whatsoever.
7. Mokenstef "He's Mine"
SEE ANSWER TO TRACK NUMBER 6
8. Joss Stone "Some Kind Of Wonderful"
Most overrated artist of the last 10 years. I just don't get the hype. Then again, I'm not a hippy who makes hemp necklaces during Dave Matthews concerts.
9. Brad Paisley "I'm Gunna Miss Her (The Fishing Song)"
My karoake "go-to" song whenever I'm at Thirsty's Pub.
10. 311 "All Mixed Up"
The "other" 311 song ("Down" being its counterpart) lacks everything that I like about 311. I turned it off as soon as it came off.
Tune in next time guys.
