The iPod Game

Rules for The iPod Shuffle Meme*Using the shuffle feature on your iPod (or other MP3 player), write down the first 5 or 10 songs that play.*Justify, defend or explain why those songs are on your iPod.*Tag someone else to complete the meme.*Include these rules--and the phrase "The iPod Shuffle Meme was created by Jenners at Life with A Little One and More -- the greatest blog on the Planet Earth and perhaps the Universe" when you post your meme answers. ***Failure to follow these rules exactly will result in loss of Internet privileges for a month, small warts, and a plague of frogs in your immediate area.
If you don't have an iPod or similar device: Randomly pick some CDs from your collection and then have a CD player pick a song via random play.
If you don't CDs but have cassette tapes: Randomly pick some tapes from your collection and then just randomly pick a song from the tape. (But really, you should at least have CDs by this point.)
If you don't have an iPod, CDs or cassette tapes but have vinyl records: If this is the case, I'm really amazed you've found your way onto the Internet at all so, by all means, feel free to pick some random albums and some tracks from those albums.
If you don't have an iPod, CDs, cassette tapes or vinyl records, my guess is you might have 8-track tapes: No one wants to know what you have on your 8-track tapes so you should not participate in this meme. In fact, if your only source of music is 8-track tapes, perhaps you should get off the Internet now and watch some movies on your Betamax. You'll feel better. The world is probably moving too fast for you, and you should take a rest.

1. Beastie Boys- Fight for Your Right: Of course this album was killer and legendary and I always think of being in 5th grade and riding on the 4-wheeler with my BFF singing this song!

2. Thompson Twins- Hold Me Now : What can I say? I'm a child of the 80's and the 80's were totally awesome!

3. Harry Connick Jr.- Jambalaya: This is my boy! Should anything happen to Steve, God forbid, I'd be hot on the trail for some Harry!

4. REM- Losing My Religion: Another timeless group. Just a good song.

5. Harry Connick Jr. - Elijah Rock: Did I mention I like Harry?

6. Beastie Boys - Brass Monkey: I sense a pattern...play this song at any dance club for some funky, booty shakin'! I didn't mean funky booties, just that the moves will be...oh, nevermind.

7. Smashing Pumpkins- Tonight, tonight: The Pumpkins remind me of college and my old roommate Barbara.

8. Jane's Addiction- Been Caught Stealing: Another fun song with a funny video.

9. Deep Blue Something- Breakfast at Tiffany's: These people were a one-hit wonder, but I liked this song. And it reminds me of the last guy I dated before Steve.

10. Jump, Little Children -All Those Days are Gone: this is a now-defunct S.C. band that I really, really, loved. They were unique, and fun and mellow and happy... (sigh). Their front man, Jay Clifford, still performs some of the Jump tunes at his shows.

And there you have it! Consider yourself tagged!

P.S. As I was telling Savannah nite-nite she told me, "Sleep safe and be strong." ??? I guess she was concerned the boogie man might get me.
