Friday Random 10

[kelliem]

I've never done this before, and now I think I know why. It points out just how weird my musical tastes are compared to most of my peers. Well, here you go, now you all can see it too. :) From my hard-drive:

1. Moonlight Becomes You / Glen Miller & His Orchestra / (Stairway to the Stars)
2. Sometimes / Daniel Lanois / (Shine)
3. Vive la Rose / Emile Benoit / (Music of Canada)
4. Ed’s Wake / Zubot & Dawson / (Music of Canada)
5. How Long Has This Been Going On / Carly Simon / (Moonlight Serenade)
6. Skinwalker’s Moon / Robert Mirabal / (Spirit)
7. Fast As I Can / Great Big Sea / (Up)
8. Begin the Beguine / The Frank & Joe Show / (33-1/3)
9. Mario Takes a Walk / Jesse Cook / (Gravity)
10. Walkin’ My Baby Back Home / Nat King Cole / (Best of Nat King Cole)

That Johari meme that's going around looks interesting but the site's overloaded so that will have to wait.

In other news, I was reading an article about the Opening Ceremonies for the 2006 Olympic Winter Games, and ran across this description of one segment: Rollerbladers in red body stockings who hurtled down ramps onto a white stage, the backs of their heads shooting two-foot bursts of fire. I read that and immediately flashed on that SGA/Xanadu vid that was making the rounds recently. Ah, roller-disco never really dies, does it? ;-D

I had a feeling you would be, if anyone was. :) Right after that 10, Beds Are Burning by Midnight Oil came up. Like I said. Weird.

And how right you were! I think it's fantastic that your taste is your own and that it is so varied! And hey, weird is good. I am currently ripping a Finnish acapella disc I just got *G*.

I'm not suprised to see a Headstones song on my flist (and Cemetary is one of the more amusing ones), but Duke Ellington? Yeah. I feel less alone now! :) (And Rod Stewart! And Flock of Seagulls!)
