So, I am bored and suddenly have a shit load of time on my hands, thus I've decided I'm going to start up a little music blog about my favorite songs ever. It's standing at 156 songs right now, and I'm not really sure if I'm going to make it an even 160 or possibly 175, or just stay with what I'm at. Leaning toward staying at 156, just cuz... you know... I can. Plus, 156 is divisible by 3 and neither 160 nor 175 are, so it'll help me in my goal of doing 3 songs per post. So yeah, I'm staying at 156.
SO!
Here are the ground rules I set for myself:
1. Any song is fair game, as long as I actually possess a copy of said song. B-sides, live tracks, non-singles, it doesn't matter. Between cd's, cassettes, and actual vinyl records, I've got somewhere around 900 albums, and using an average of 10 songs per album that's approximately 9000 songs to choose from. Throw in albums like Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me by The Cure (18 songs) and live albums and greatest hits albums, usually around 20 songs, plus various cassette/cd singles (not to mention shit I've downloaded... shhhhhhhh!) and we're looking at probably 10,000 songs. So yeah, it's all fair game.
2. Yeah, that's really the only rule, actually.
My plan, for now, is to not just list the songs, like this:
156. Blah Blah Blah by So and So
155. Whatever by Whoever
154. XYZ by ABC
No. The plan is to actually write about the song, why I like it, what deep seeded memories I have about it, whatever. I'll also include my favorite line from each song, and try to link a video of it, if I can figure out how to do that. (If anyone knows how to do that, I'd love some help on that one.)
So... Look for those starting probably next weekend, possibly earlier depending on the job situation. Til then...

If you want to post a video, from Youtube let's say, copy and paste the embedded code, then hit the "Edit html tab (instead of compose) and paste the code. That should work. It may not show up while you're writing the post, but it should show up after you post the entry.
