another exercise for you to complete

[constance]

stolen from bowdlerized, and even though I am not so good at this sort of thing, I will do my best because I love the idea of music/person synesthesia.

YOU: Leave a comment.
I: Upload a song that reminds me of you or that I think you will like. Maybe even more than one, if I can't decide.
YOU, OPTIONALLY: Upload a song for me that you think I might like when you leave your comment.
EVERYONE ELSE: Scavenges in the comments for fabulous music and is tremendously happy!

I want to play, but I don't know how or where to upload.

There's always http://www.yousendit.com for your upload needs. Just enter your email address into the recipient field, if you don't want to send notification, and copy the link once it's uploaded so that you can paste it into a comment.

But, you know, it's not strictly necessary to reciprocate! No pressure!

Yours was hard, man, because as far as I can tell you've heard of every song ever and I am a musical philistine. Here, though, are two songs from my youth, for you.

Baby Mine - Bonnie Raitt with Was (Not Was) (http://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=23RAT6G1GBD052YHRPFZAEWXUI). Because you are feeling badly and I want to give you the musical equivalent of a tight hug.

Favorite Thing - The Replacements (http://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1T8344ECI3F6Z02NV11LDKBSLC). We can play this at our wedding.

Has there ever been a redder, hotter mama (http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1N26EBSY9J1802CVEUJ1DAI3FW) than you, My Darling? It's you he's singing about.

hahahahahahahaha

Me, please?

For you, two pretty, poppy songs, one new and one classic:

Blue Skies - Patti Griffin (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1JL3QUS2UJFTV3H09JDYH3KNVU)

I'm in Love with a Girl - Big Star (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=30TTRKL9HA7K33LD8RQ1CVV5WG)

Comment! Comment! Comment!

(It took me so long because I've been trying to think of a song that screams (or just shouts, even) tofty to me. I will have to get back to you on it, I think.)

I know you think of yourself as a gangsta girl, but I think of you more as my De La Soul girl, smart and lively and obviously having fun almost all the time, the one that people will still list as a favorite 15 years later.

Eye Know - De La Soul (http://s42.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0DJL6I22SVFQX2UC7RE5IP8JHY)

And I wanted to do your breakup song meme, but I don't have a playlist, really. This is one I'd have on my playlist, though, if I did have one.

This Is Where - Richard Buckner (http://s42.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=304KYB0GXWCSL1BWA17NLV8NWW)

[kickthebeat.livejournal.com]

Holy crap, I love you.

[tofty.livejournal.com]

:O

I do believe that is the nicest declaration of love I've ever gotten! *adds to memories*

Maybe you already know this one.

[coco-palmolive.livejournal.com]

This song reminds me of being teenagers together, even though it was recorded many years after that fact.

Dressy Bessy -- California (http://s41.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=131LAJY1QLALB21PPK4EZGZAYM)

Re: Maybe you already know this one.

[tofty.livejournal.com]

By a very weird coincidence, I've been using this month's allotment of emusic downloads to download Dressy Bessy! I don't think I've got this one yet, though. :D

I'm not even going to bother trying to upload something I think you'll like that you don't have, because I'm not sure that is possible. However, here are two songs that will always no matter what always remind me of you:

Partytime - Jazz Butcher (http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3VVL48XWDBGY71AB25A29YLTJB)

Sweet Jane - Cowboy Junkies (http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1LH900L6FFMPB0KJ7SWGSCMHRN)
