MJ has passed me my first baton!!!!! Im not complaining. Except from lack of batons!

Here we go…

Total volume of music files on my computer:
Um, lemme check… Ok, just finished downloading one, about to feed in another to the hungry little new hard drive, and the current total stands at 1.05GB. Damn, im a total lightweight! Must admit that i dont actually have that many cds… yet....

Song playing right now:
Temperature Rising by Les Nubians (love those girls!)

The last CD I bought:
The Waifs, A brief history…
Actually, i was looking for You Am I Hourly Daily but couldnt find it. I think the next cd will be Talvin Singh, Ha!, or You Am I if i manage to find it…

Five songs or tunes I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:
Hmmmm… well, at the moment its

London Still, The Waifs. Usually i will song along with anything and everything, but this one, my voice catches and my throat closes… after all this time im so homesick!

Missing, Everything but the girl. Reminds me of my biggest fuck up ever, and all the boys i still miss. Still not actually able to listen to anything by this band, but im sure I will be able to in the future… one day… It often plays in my head tho.

Banana Pancakes, Jack Johnson. *sigh* Every rainy tsuyu morning…

You Owe Me Nothing, Alanis Morissette. Still working on that one.

Professor Booty, Beastie Boys. James and Ash, man, listening to that song is like having you guys right there in the room with me.

If i had to do it again, it would be totally different.

Im passing the baton to:

the Indigo Girl (and you will notice that theres none of them on the above list!)

the Flower Girl (I dont know if she does memes, but damned if she doesnt have the most eclectic taste in music!)

Ms. Life Out Here

Arumanda

And just for fun, Id like to know what Shaggy is playing in the Bar From Hell, seeing as im going to be back in One Horse one day soon… not that he’s reading…

Heh, total volume now up to 1.31GB, im getting there…

  ooooh….

  how exciting. something very new for me - i’ve no real idea what a meme is, but i’ll give it a go because i really like the questions and my life is music. thank you j-ster.

  
  you and i seem to have quite a lot in common in terms of musical tastes. we must get together and scratch out some toons on the guitar in a park some day soon. singing is my joy. doesn’t mean i’m any good at it, but i love it all the same. and how could one even think about doing the indigo girls or the waifs justice, on their lonesome?

  
  i should check out Les Nubians. they sound fun. i’ll hit my green lime right now and take a test spin.

  
  thankyou

  Given your comments on The Waifs (one of my fave CDs and I can understand your views on London Calling), you should also check out another really good Western Australian act The John Butler Trio and their CD Sunrise Over Sea.

  Wow Fontella! You are psychic! Those boys -and that cd - are in my cd player this very moment courtesy of a loan from another Ausie boy here! Im kinda getting into them slowly… good morning music!
