The Great CD Project of '04 Soldiers on...

[stoney321]

dusty273 had the request of "Kiss". Got some songs about it, here it goes:


1. Girl Afraid, The Smiths. I was what you would call a "late bloomer." I identified with this song so much. Wanting a boy, not knowing how to get the lips together...
2. Sugar Water (Remix), Cibo Matto. Later I learned to be this girl. Want? Take: Have. This is the sexy dance Buffy does with Xander to get Angel jealous.
3. I Have The Touch, Peter Gabriel. Only, only wanting contact... Mmm. I made out with the Handsome Jew to this song many times... 17 was a good age.
4. Our Day Will Come, K.D. Lang and the Recliners. I love her voice. I love this song of dreaming. This makes me think of first kisses, and those are a precious commodity.
5. Steal My Kisses, Ben Harper. I love him!! I love this song!! I'm bouncing back and forth thinking about the chorus of this song!
6. Kiss Me, Sixpence None The Richer. This song satisfies the swirly girlie in me.
7. Please, Please Me, The Beatles. You know when you see someone [Zach Braff] with pretty lips [Zach Braff] and you just KNOW [Zach!] that they would be great kissers? COME ON! Please! Please me! Hee hee!
8. Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You, Lauryn Hill. Best version of this song. Hands down. Wait, Denise Richards sings this to Doll!Jesus in the fake documentary, right? Okay, this is the SECOND greatest version of this song.
9. For Once In My Life, Stevie Wonder. Stevie. Stevie singing joyous love. Life is good, folks.
10. In The Waiting Line, Zero7. Now, this isn't a traditional love or kissing song. But my husband gets amorous everytime I play it. Works for me. By the way? He's SUPER hot.
11. Kiss of Life, Sade. I would STILL crawl across broken, fiery glass to hear this woman sing.
12. Buffy-Angel Love Theme, Christophe Beck. I don't care what your ship is, this is a good piece of music.
13. Tai Chi with Buffy, Christophe Beck. And how pretty was it watching these two? I like watching them kiss. And I'm Spuffy! And Spangel, and Spander, and Splem... No. Not the last one.
14. Fruta Fresca, Carlos Vives. Mari!! Shout out to you, in a way. I love me some Latin music, and this is a great song. I used to work in a department of all Cuban males (they would say: llay ohrah, say KOO bahn), and they would drag me on the floor and get me grooving every Christmas party, and demand their cheeks kissed when done. Good times.
15. A Kiss To Build A Dream On, Louis Armstrong. I love this song, but not as much as Ben Affleck needs acting lessons. Okay, there should be at least three of you laughing at that.
16. Wedding-Wrong, J Ralph. Remember that terrific VW commercial with the guy rushing to the wedding chapel and it turns out he isn't the groom but is trying to STOP the wedding? This is the killer music in that commercial.
17. Kiss, Prince. You knew it was coming. And this man IS sex. I don't care how wee he is.
18. Kiss Them For Me, Siouxie and The Banshees. Back in my shoe gazer phase, this was the "peppy" song she did. I still love it.
19. I Know What Boys Like, The Waitresses. Boys like me. Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!
20. Hot, Hot Hot!, The Cure. Told you boys liked me. Hee! ROBERT SMITH!! Don't you STILL want to put on bright red lipstick and smear it a bit? No? Just me?
21. Keeping the Dream Alive, Freiheit. Obscure song from one of the best romantic movies EVER: Say Anything. Song of love and triumph, and this is played when the plane takes off and she's freaked out and he's just there for her, and they kiss.

The next CD is out and will be listed in a second post tonight. smashsc, email me your mailing address so I can get you out the door in the morning! Vinnie, yours will go out then, as well.

Most of these I haven't heard, so I can't wait to listen to them :D

I will send you two CD's back, one with my favorite Latin music and the other with my favorite English music. I have them all plotted. :D

You rock so much.

Address sent.

You! Are rad. If somebody had asked me for a Kiss themed CD, I would've been totally tasteless and put "I WANNA ROCK AND ROLL ALL NIIIIIGHT, AND PARTY EV-ER-Y DAY" as the first song. You picked all nice songs, for playback value. Good.

Re: Thanks!!!

Oh, I hope you will like them all. I am making sure that all the songs are things I listen to, so there won't be any outrageously bad songs, I would hope.

I cannot WAIT to get your Latin music! I love to merenge and samba!

Got it, yours will be sent out in the AM, and yours has a song that gives me chills!! It's probably my most favorite guitar piece EVER.

Wheee!!

Beth, by KISS almost made it, but it wasn't keeping with the theme of "can I make out to it?" I know SOME people can make out to it, but I cannot.

Dude, your "crazy" CD is going to kick ass. There will be an sf element to it, of course. I'm working, like, five CDs at a time in my head. I'm gonna splode one day...

Yay! Can't wait to get it.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

i have been waiting for you... Knew you'd come around. (said in best Anthony Michael Hall leer)

I was going to just create one for you (it would have been a shame if you didn't get in, what with you living so close and all) and "Friends" is easy! Five songs just popped into my head.

Done!

Hot, Hot Hot!, The Cure. Told you boys liked me. Hee! ROBERT SMITH!! Don't you STILL want to put on bright red lipstick and smear it a bit? No? Just me?

No, it's not just you. Read crazydiamondsue's CD meme thingy and it got me thinking... Love Cats, The Cure. I tell them to forget the slow dance at the end of the night. Put this on and groove along with me. It’s the most sex I’ve ever had with my clothes on...

And can I say, if I haven't before, that you have the best taste in music bar none (except for me *g*).

What a cute icon!

Tee Hee! I found that while entertaining the three year old today. SHe said, "mommy, it's me!!" Funny thing? My kids are my TWINS at the young ages. They each looked exactly like me at one point. Which kinda sucks for my son.

Flickaflickaflickaflickaflickaflickaflicka here you are!!
Citacitacitacitacitacaterpillar go!

I'm about to put up the list for "Color." That one was fun!

(I would say that "Fly on the Windscreen" was my fave dirty song of the day. Now it would be The Seed (2.0) by The Roots. Guh.)
