Five Songs I'm Loving This Week (plus an extra one because I'm in a bad mood, and I feel guilty for doing something as precious as the 5 Songs list when my heart really isn't into it)

I'm very tired in general, so there's a very good chance I may accidently repost something I've already done. Also, it's going to have more than one retro song, I believe, because I've been so busy with work I haven't had a chance to download anything new. Also please forgive me if I don't comment much. I'm just really tired--I've been working alot of overtime.

The first song I know I haven't posted before, because I just downloaded it. It can't be too new because I found it on epitonic, which hasn't updated in I would guess over a year. The name of the song is "Lord Gregory," and it's by a Scottish man named Alisdair Roberts. I'd never heard of him before, but he's worked with a lot of bands I like.

This band, Sunny So Brite, I've linked to before, but I'm almost entirely sure I posted a different song. This is an Alabama band, and unlike a lot of Alabama bands, I can actually say I like this one :) The song "Big Empty Space" is the one I think people should listen to.

Online I found a tribute EP of songs from John Hughes movies. I don't think anyone would be surprised to learn that I worship John Hughes movies from the eighties. Farmer Ted, Long Duck Dong, Bender, and of course DUCKIE!!! (I love you Duckie. I'll go to the prom with you.) Anyway, the cd is actually from the late nineties, but the style of the music is the same as the music I listen to now. They're in WMA form. I nearly had a stroke trying to convert them into MP3 form using Musicmatch. Musicmatch is on my shitlist. Very much so. By the by, I'm using this site Ive never used before. If it adds any spyware to
you computer (or if you experience any negative effects), please let me know and I'll stop using it.

I don't like all the versions of the songs, but I really like two of them:

Ciao Bella,"If You Were Here"
and Ninety-and-Nine, "Bring On The Dancing Horses" Also please tell me if these don't work.

I like this song alot. I've been meaning to post it forever, but I just haven't yet. It's by a band called Mobius, and it's called "Starts With A Bang." You can download it from their site. Click on music, and choose the record City Vs. Country. Awesome song.

I've technically reached my five songs, but what the what. I'll do one more retro song. I hope megaupload works.

This song freaked the hell out of me when I first heard it when I was about 19. I swear I thought the woman singing it couldn't be human. It still makes me feel strange even after all these years. It's by Chris & Cosey (who've had hundreds of albums) and it's called "Trust."

Please let me know if these don't work. Thank you, and call again.
