Honey, anyone who listens to Squirrel Nut Zippers, Enya, and Leonard Bernstein is cool by me. We’re a pretty eclectic bunch – there’s bound to be someone out there who shares your tastes.

And now you’ll have to excuse me. “Now We Are Free” just came on and I need to lip sync.

Thank you for your support. Actually there’s little listed here that I’m unfamiliar with or couldn’t eventually find on one of my random lists. There are some things I’m definitely going to look up though – since obviously age has slowed down my awareness of new music. (It comes with teenagers moving out to college and a ton of stuff the spouse wants you to take care of, and still believing it is possible to become the creative artist you’ve always wanted to be, but took that computer job because the money was just too consistent and not all that bad.) What’s the quote? “Life is that thing that happens while you’re making plans.”

Is the Howard Hughes version of that “Life is the thing that happens to you while you’re making planes?”

I digress. We now return you to your random musical selections. . .

What has surprised me is that in the 2 times I have done this, I have only had 2 Talking Heads songs come up and they are the most represented artist in my collection. Also the two GNR songs back to back kinda freaked me out.

Also, might I suggest A band first, song after format?

I’m guessing a lot of people, myself included, scan over the list of bands they like, and then see what other bands that person is intersted in… and listing the song names just makes it hard to do.

Take two - this time a bit more varied. I’ll use **SenorBeef** ’s suggested format with annotations after the song title where needed.  
[ol]  
[li]D’Oyly Carte Opera Company, We Are Gentlemen of Japan, from _The Mikado_[/li][li]Tom Lehrer, I Hold Your Hand in Mine[/li][li]“Wierd” Al Yankovic, Attack of the Radioative Hamsters From a Planet Near Mars[/li][li]Smothers Brothers, Daniel Boone[/li][li]Jimmy Buffett, I Gotta Go Where It’s Warm[/li][li]Kouda Mariko, Ending theme for the anime Marmalade Boy[/li][li]Tasuki’s Image Song from Fushigi Yuugi[/li][li]Gordon Lightfoot, Cherokee Bend[/li][li]Amy Grant, Where Do You Hide Your Heart[/li][li]Harry Chapin, W_O_L\*D[/li][li]Christine Lavin, I Wanna Be Lonely Again[/li][li]Arlo Guthrie, I’m Going Home[/li][li]Indigo Girls, Fare Thee Well[/li][li]D’Oyly Carte Opera Company, Mad Margaret, from _Ruddygore_[/li][li]Boiled in Lead, Nasrudin[/li][li]Trout Fishing in America, Mine![/li][li]The Producers OBC, Keep It Gay[/li][li]Samuel E. Wright, Kiss the Girl[/li][li]Sakai Noriko, A Happy Tear (The Video Girl Ai opening theme)[/li][/ol]

That’s a bit better, still seems an odd mix to me. No PDQ Bach, or other Bach, and I’ve not listened to that Amy Grant for years…

18. If I Had A Talking Picture Of You - ‘Bertie Wooster’ (Hugh Laurie)/ Jeeves and Wooster.

19. Steven - Alice Cooper.

20. Fly Me To The Moon - Michel Buble.

I was a little dissapointed that no Monty Python or Rocky horror got in there and it’s rather tame but other than that it’s ok. And (BTW) nothing like anyone elses lists. But that’s ok with me! 😃
