I can assure you that you didn’t succeed, because my phone’s been turned off. I respect the crap out of that Kris Kristofferson, though.

All Because Of You-U2
Hold On- Sarah McLachlan
All Along The Watchtower- U2

From where did this bonus track bidness come? And am I the only one who has ever had a song from the Lion King in the FRT???

I don’t even know what the protocol for bonus tracks is. I’ve asked a few times over at Pandagon, but never gotten a response. So “The Celibate Life” came around on shuffle after the first 10 had already been done, and I like that song, so I decided that it would be the bonus track this week.

Ok, so it’s well past Friday, but I have iTunes on now since the neighbors dog won’t shut the hell up. Here we go…

Fighter - Christina Aguilera
The Lesson Pt 3 - The Roots
Butterflies - Toad the Wet Sprocket
I’m Like a Bird - Nelly Furtado
My Favorite Accident - Motion City Soundtrack
Puberty - Belly
The Touch - Stan Bush
Parachutes - Pearl Jam
The Way You Move - Outkast
Corduroy - Pearl Jam

My iTunes is a little high in estrogen, but thankfully The Touch came on and cranked things back up.

You got the moves, you know the streets
Break the rules, take the heat
YOU’RE NOBODY’S FOOL!

Eric gets mad props for also having a track for Transformers the Movie on His iPod. But does he have the movie heavy metal theme?

Radio War - Iron and Wine
The Ha Ha Wall - Libertines
Break My Body - Pixies
Lavender - 50 Foot Wave
Cupid’s Trick - Elliot Smith
Man in Black - Johnny Cash
Gouge Away - Pixies
Honey - The Screens
Multitude of Casualties - The Hold Steady

I’m stunned the pixies popped twice! 734 songs on my Ipod. I have also come to loathe The Hold Steady.

Pedro, you’re so emo.
10 pedro Nov 1st, 2006 at 10:30 am

It’s cause of Elliot Smith, right? Damnit!
11 Steve Nov 1st, 2006 at 2:55 pm

The Iron and Wine isn’t helping either, you lover of soft-voiced men, you.

Obviously, I haven’t a leg to stand on when accusing others of being sensitive young men, as you know. Cf. the Sarah McLachlan in the above post.

I don’t think I used “cf.” correctly there, but “n.b.” didn’t feel right, either.
12 Eric Nov 2nd, 2006 at 7:07 am

Dude, would you rather be a lover of soft-voiced men or Sarah Mc-fuckin-lachlan. No contest. Pedro’s kung fu is weak. Probably the coiffed emo hair over one eye messin with his depth perception. That’s right I said it. Go back and read all the pussy shit I listen to then re-read “Pedro’s kung fu is weak” and lemme know how that makes you feel (Steve, if he cries we know for certain). Nah, I’m just kiddin. You had the Man in Black. ‘Nuff said.
13 pedro Nov 2nd, 2006 at 10:19 am

I was a little angry at first. But then I realized that you were the one who listens to Toad. And Belly. And you still say Sarah Mc=fuckin’-lachlan like it’s 1998.

And I was fine.

Got to say fellas. I don’t listen to Ms. My-Glock-nine anymore. She gives me cavities now.
