La Musica para tu

[stoney321]

I'm sick of this dreary, cold weather. I've been pretending it's warm. So warm I need to put new ice-cubes in my drink because they keep melting. So warm I need to fan myself and sit by the pool and let the sun bake my eyelids. Remember warm?

I made a CD-mix to help me pretend, and I've been super productive and happy for the past 24 hours, so I thought I'd share. Don't you need to rock out a bit at your desk today, or groove and shake your booty while cleaning? Everything has a summery-pool and drink quality IMO. Playlist and songs (in their listening order: it's important!) are under the cut.


A Boy Named Sue - Johnny Cash
Fishing Blues - Taj Mahal
Before you Accuse Me - Eric Clapton, Unplugged
Truckin' - Grateful Dead
Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen
Take Your Mama Out - Scissor Sisters
Heavy Metal Drummer - Wilco
Down With Disease - Phish
Can't Take My Eyes Off of You - Lauren Hill
Sugar Water (Remix) - Cibo Matto
For Once in My Life - Stevie Wonder
The Beautiful - PM Dawn
Watching the Detectives - Elvis Costello
Summertime Rolls - Janes Addiction

I think my age is showing...

I your age is showing, mine will cover it. What?

I'm listening to Work Mix #2 (Radiohead, currently) which includes Sugar Water and Crazy Little Thing Called Love, as well as Elvis Costello, Janes Addiction, Wilco, and Johnny Cash...

I'm cold and sorting files. Bleh.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Files sortin' is of the DEBIL!! Poor, Sue. Music will fix it...

And if that doesn't work... Jame dancing will.

you upload the file to www.yousendit.com

when that is done, you take the link they give you (on screen once upload is complete and do type this:
[a href="link here"}Name of Link Here[/a} and exchange the [ for < and and } for >

Now, what kind of icon do you want, Boo?

Right now I'm curled up on the couch , shivering with cold ( well , I was five minutes ago , then I decided to have a look at my fl )

.. And i'm listening to Johnny Cash = love it!
......to Clapton = love it !
Downloading the rest as I write.

again some minutes later : shaking head as Grateful head is singing!

Internet is just a beautiful thing , don't you think , Laura? You're so far away in Texas , and i'm here lost in the middle of France.. and we're together. Love you.

I know!! I love that part, too.

I hope you are listening to music that makes you feel like you are sitting on a dock with your toes dipping in the water, and the sun baking your skin... Just don't go outside!! Hee!

you are not the boss of me.

Except when you are.

Roger. Wilco. I was over Unger, and Under was under Dunn.

I downloaded, made a playlist in iTunes, and burned a CD. I will think of the pool while I play this, which is much needed as we are expected to receive 5-10" tomorrow. Probably no school, and none of the errands I planned will get done. Instead I will shovel the walk, and rake the roof. Such fun.

I love that the list starts with Johnny Cash, and ends with Janes Addiction. And so far (I've played about halfway through) the progression sounds so completely natural.

I've gotten a present today! Thank you so much! I really needed it. Ron's been gone 8 days so far, and I'm draggin' my tailfeathers. He'll be gone 2 more days. I really don't know how you do this week after week.

Uh, you have bean dip and chips on hand, and lots of things to read or watch. And cats that don't mind being squeezed in the night... Ha!!

Don't you love the story of Boy Named Sue? That song represents a part of my childhood when my parents were singers in a country band. Songs like "Lucile" and "Coat of Many Colors" are some of my faves from my childhood. My son LOVES that Cash song.

I imagined I had sandy toes and hot skin while listening earlier... My kids also love the Taj Mahal song. That makes me think of fish fries out at the lake and swimming suit butt. Hee!

Awesome! Thanks for these! I LURVES Eric Clapton!

*sooches*

For the record, age shmage, I bounced (and DL'd) at nearly every title and I'm like *mumble*cough*mumble* years younger than you. Age ain't nuttin' but a numbah.

<--Just felt like doing this icon :D

[mskakaako.livejournal.com]

That's not *THE* Mike D. remix of Sugar Water, is it?
SHOOOGAH WAAH-TAH!

I want that cd I mailed you to get there FAST! It's perfect for cold weather or any kind of weather. I'm just smitten with it. I've been listening to their demo a lot too. Did you ever catch The Arcade Fire on Conan?

J.C. (no, the other J.C.)Taj Mahal and Queen. Together at last. I loves me some eclectic musical tastes!
