Dolce Vita: we love music and lyrics speak to me.

and it's always fun to see what music others listen to right?

so how fun was this shuffle post/idea jessie had. i loved seeing bands like lucero to artists like elvis costella on her iTunes shuffle. Then seeing claire's with jackson browne to my favorite, coldplay. Tillie with her eccentric taste who's shuffle looked most like mine {a girl who has the Beatles and Nirvana}.

i once had an affaire amour with a guy who looked like Robert Pattinson (no joke) where we dreamt of having sleepovers in my flannel pajamas with apples on them and listening to music. If that was now, this is what would be on my iTunes shuffle:

*forgive my messy writing... i was outside on the porch with my ipod and morning coffee when i penned this on graph paper

yup, if this was a big sleepover we could dance to abba and MJ and have a glass of wine and talk about our affair amours to coldplay and that beautiful one by Rachael Cantu (who i discovered when she opened for B.B. King)

i also love that two of the songs were ones i discovered through mixed tapes made for me by M (#18) and April (#21).

so what would your 25 songs be if you pressed shuffle on your iTunes?

play along and show a piece of who you are {cos doesn't our music taste say a bit about us?} and if you do, leave me a comment so i can check out your shuffle! no editing... hello, i have the beach boys on mine!

Leesh said...: I have Beach Boys on my iPod too - Don't Worry Baby and Surfer Girl. I think my love for them comes from my dad who had most of their records or LPs (I don't remember what they were called back then).

I hope you don't mind but I did the shuffle myself - here's my list > http://blarkness.blogspot.com/2011/03/shuffle.html; March 5, 2011 at 8:08 AM
