Recently Dorky Dad and Balou did that seven song meme and I decided to do it again.
I Want You~ Elvis Costello/Fiona Apple
Vocals by Fiona in this version, Elvis accompanying.
Stunning performance
1,000 Oceans or maybe Spark ~ Tori Amos
(What is there to say, its Tori!)
In the Cold, Cold Night~ White Stripes
(A very very sexy little number)
The next one is from the Barenaked Ladies Bathroom Sessions
ox
16 Miltary Wives~ The Decemberists
Phantom Limb~The Shins
(I quite like this group)
For Us Peter Yorn
(Vid is a little weird, but I love his voice and this song)
There were lots of other option, but those are my top picks of this very moment.
OTHER EXCITING NEWS!
My Susie Q is coming to see me again!!
YAY!
Also, I am almost recovered from birthday frivolities.
I know not 1 of those songs.
ReplyDeleteThe Decemberists rule!
ReplyDeleteAwesome. You're like a bonus tag-ee with that one.
ReplyDeleteThat was a totally successful meme, in my view, for the people I tagged had some great lists. And yours is excellent.
Wow! Totally love a lot of that music. My daughter got me hooked on the Shins. Nothing better than Angry Fiona music.
ReplyDeleteYay for a Susie Visit!
For Us is one of my favorite Pete Yorn songs. He was in NE in February and we went to see him. Amazing entertainer.
ReplyDeleteSnavy~ This is your chance, you can learn them now!! YAY
ReplyDeleteGrunt~ They really really do, love the Mariner's Revenge so so so much.
Dorky Dad~ Thank you, Im glad you consider it a successful collateral tag.
Blither~ Oh good, glad you found something you like on there. Fiona doing Elvis, I really do like that.
ARM~ I am jealous, that sounds like a great show. Definitely a great song.
What a terrific list. Listening to that Barenaked Ladies' song in my office just perked me up immeasurably.
ReplyDeleteLove your tunes - The Shins are in the car cd - can't get enough of them. I had that Decemberists clip in The Snark a little while back (love it). Nicely done (cept can't listen from my office).
