Ten random selections from the hard drive, via Windows Media Center:
1985 — Bowling for Soup
— I started 11th grade in the Fall of 1985. Yikes!Do I Make You Proud — Taylor Hicks
— His debut album may have “bombed” but he’s still my second-favorite Idol, behind Kelly Clarkson, and I’d catch him in concert any day.Please to Excuse the Blues — Patricia Smith
— On page, on stage, Patricia’s work holds up long after the first time it blows you away.Mercy on the Battlefield — Oscar Bermeo
— Now happily married on the left coast, this was OB’s coming out.All That I Am — Rob Thomas
— Not my favorite by him, but he’s one of a small group of artists I can listen to a whole album of.Mother — Cristin O’Keefe Aptowicz
— Remains my all-time favorite by Cristin.Amazing — Aerosmith
— From Salomé’s downloads; I fast-forwarded past this one!Hate Me — Blue October
— I love this song, partly because it’s a perfect alternate timeline theme song for me.Buttons — Pussycat Dolls
— What? Don’t hate.II Hype — Entouch
— Underrated New Jack Swingers, this entire album holds up better than the majority of work by better known artists from their time.
Oddly heavy on the poetry today. Hmmm…
