Monday meme

[sabotabby]

mistersmearcase hath tagged me with the music meme.

Here are the somewhat totalitarian instructions:
List ten 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 ten songs. Then tag some other people to see what they're listening to:

1. "Ghost of Tom Joad," Bruce Springsteen
2. "The Triumph of Our Tired Eyes," A Silver Mt. Zion
3. "I Ain't Got No Home," Woody Guthrie
4. "Wear Clean Draws," The Coup
5. "Mack the Knife," (various versions)
6. "Which Side Are You On?" Billy Bragg
7. "White Boots Marching in a Yellow Land," Phil Ochs
8. "Green Fields of France," Eric Bogle
9. "The Mercy Seat," Johnny Cash
10. "Black Friday Rule," Flogging Molly

There's a bit of a theme here.

(I tag you. Yes, you.)

Additional note to self: Just because someone shows you a cafe that makes all of its coffee with espresso machines does not mean that you need to sample that coffee after 5 o' clock. You will not be able to sleep. I don't care how mindblowingly yummy it is.

See, I've heard of most of those people, but I haven't actually heard any of them.

well let me just say that that is sad... you need a file sharing program of some sort and you need to use it to download all of the above tracks... and while you're at it you need to download some death from above 1979 as well seeing as they kinda belonged in this list as well but you were insisting on ONLY ten songs and i think that's kind of fascist cos i'm NEVER only listening to ten songs... not that i think everyone else here is either but ... well.. i'm going to shut up now cos i'm babbling needlessly

I like Massive Attack. I'm not that clueless.

And the meme did mention that it was totalitarian. Sheesh.
