 asked the question on her LJ post about "I want to know what the non-negotiable songs are in your life, the ones that are absolutely not up for discussion, they just ARE. I don't know, give me... however many you feel like sharing."

I just had to help my son do this as a homework assignment a few weeks ago.  Never occurred to me to do one myself.  So here's my attempt.  Not in any particular order (and this may very well be embarrassing as my choice of music has drastically evolved over the years but I cannot ignore my early loves.

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. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

In no particular ranking....

Half-life by Duncan Sheik (because I love the vocals)

The Last High by The Dandy Warhols (Fell in love with this song because of a fanvid I saw about Brian from QAF. But then discovered The Dandy Warhols, who are from Portland where I live. Have many of their songs now.)

Sway by Michael Buble (Because I love Michael Buble, and this song makes me want to dance. And I do NOT like to dance.)

Crazy by Gnarls Barkley (which can describe my work life some days)

Babylon by David Gray (Just because I love it. Found this one on an episode of Boston Legal)

Pure Imagination (as sung by Gene Wilder in the original Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Love this movie, love the song.)

Advertising Space by Robbie Williams (I discovered Robbie through the Cole Porter movie "De-Lovely." Also discovered Diana Krall. I now own most of their albums. There's something about this song that I just love, the words, the music, his voice...the combo of all.)
