Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they're listening to.

1. Infatuation - Rod Stewart. I forgot how fun this song was, and sexy.

2. Vicarious - Tool. I never get tired of this song, Maynard's voice, the way it keeps its melody while driving forward for 7 minutes.

3. Life is Beautiful - Nikki Sixx. Few singers will ever have the experience this guy has under his belt. When he says "nothing like a trail of blood to lead your way back home", it's not just because the lyrics are cool.

4. Best of You - Foo Fighters. Dave Grohl rocks the socks off this, passionate and intense.

5. Straight Tequila Night - John Anderson. I found this song again after a few years and it's giving me ideas for a RPF fic, so I keep listening.

6. Side of a Bullet - Nickelback. The guitar work is why I love listening to this song. It does things to me.

7. Silver Springs - Fleetwood Mac. This song will always make me think of Mason, and how freeing it was when I realized I didn't want to be miserable anymore. It's one of my all time favorites.

I lurve Rockin' Rod and yeah, "Infatuation" rocks. I might recognize 2-7 I heard them, but surprisingly, none of their lyrics or melodies immediately spring to mind. Maybe we should make compilations of our songs and post them on yousendit so we can all hear what we're listening to.

OTOH, I knew every song Deb listed. LOL Children of the '70s, I tell ya whut. And don't dis the Bee Gees, missy. Their harmonies are truly beautiful. :)

But Kel, I have to dis the Bee Gees. It's the thing to do, ya know? But I do have a weakness for one of their songs. I just can't recall the name. When it comes on the radio, I.....turn it up, sing along.

Shhhhh.

You'd probably recognize one or two of the other ones, just because they aren't obscure. Just not played a lot on the radio. Silver Springs has the memorable line of "I begin not to love you, turn around see me running" and "I could have loved you, but you would not let me"......lyrics that always remind me of that first big train wreck of a boyfriend of mine. In the '97 concert VH1 aired (I can hook you up with a link if ya want), Lindsay and Stevie are just eye fucking big time, as she screams the lyrics at him. And he takes it.

I totally ship that lost cause. lol

What the heck - here's the YouTube link:

Keep your eye on the way she begins to turn her head and look at him as she sings. It's awesome.
