List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

Editor's note: Since my friends list is pretty short, tagging other people is sort of a waste of time. I do look forward to reading other people's lists, though!

My List:

Jessica Andrews, Show Me Heaven. Okay, it's a bubblegum power ballad, but there's method here. I have ambitions of making a movie at some point - a supernatural thriller full of revenge killings and interesting camera work centered around a 30-something-ish female protagonist named "Kate", and this song seems to fit the general feel of what I want for the pop portion of the soundtrack, even if I never use the actual song. Having the song on my daily playlist keeps my head in the game.

Windham Hill Artists. Chanonry Point, Phil Cunningham/Manus Lunny, from Celtic Christmas II. Same reason: general feel for the movie soundtrack. This one for the lighter portions of the soundtrack, and without the annoyingly "ethereal" vocals. Sing or shaddup goddamn you.

Windham Hill Artists. Lament, Brian Dunning/Jeff Johnson, from Celtic Christmas II. Ditto. Okay, not the whole song, just the first 1:46, for a montage of scenes and Kate remembers the day her husband was killed.

William Morris, White Hills of Home. An original piece. Sure, it's a little narcissistic, but I get such a huge kick out of hearing my own stuff with harmony, several instruments. Hell, I sound like a real musician! (It's my daughter's favorite song, too.)

Damn, that's only four. Okay, let's check my playlist in WinAmp...

Alison Krauss and the Union Station, Every Time You Say Goodbye, Live - Disk 1. Everything that's right about modern bluegrass.

Joe Nichols, Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off. Just because.

Blue Man Group, Hamster Dance Techno Remix. When I need a little pick me up, this is the musical equivalent of acid.

I will happily post links to any of these songs if you're curious...

Hamster Dance Techno Remix? What in the name of Great Cthulhu is that, and why are the Blue Men doing it? Link, damnit.

And, just because you've never had the oppotunity to hear it: White Hills of Home. (http://www.seamlyne.com/funstuff/white_hills_of_home.mp3)
