songs

Apparently, the point is to list your favorite songs by these artists.

 

AC/DC:  Just really not a fan. 

 

Aerosmith:  Dream On, or Sweet Emotion.  It’s a tossup

 

The Beach Boys:  California Girls, but thats a real hard one.

 

The Beatles (pick 3):  Day in the Life, Penny Lane, Here Comes the Sun

 

Billy Joel:  Piano Man has special meaning for me

 

Boston:  Amanda

 

CCR:  Have You Ever Seen the Rain

 

The Doors:  Riders on the Storm

 

Bob Dylan:  this is TOUGH.  Positively 4th St, off the top of my head.

 

Jimi Hendrix:  Little Wing

 

Led Zeppelin:  Over the Hils and Far Away–although I feel they are one of the most overrated bands of the 20th century.  Sorry.

 

Marvin Gaye:  Let’s Get it ON! 

 

Queen:  Oh jeez.  Fat Bottom Girls?  I love queen, but thats the one I sing along to most often

 

Rush:  Subdivisions

 

The Rolling Stones:  Gimme Shelter

 

Simon & Garfunkel:  The Only Living Boy in New York

 

The Supremes:  Stop! In The Name of Love…only because i like doing the hand motions for it (haha!  me and my mom used to go to the drive-in on saturdays (Biff Burger, jules) and they had oldies night.  Every time, we requested this song and performed it.  If you knew my mother, youd know how ridiculous this must have been)

 

The Temptations:  Just My Imagination

 

Van Halen:  Okay.  Now, there are two different "Van Halen"s.  David Lee Roth VH, and Sammy Hagar VH.

Sammy Hagar: Right Now

David Lee Roth: Running With The Devil

 

The Who:  Behind Blue Eyes.  No one seems to understand why we played this and Lynyrd Skynyrd (Simple Man) at my cousin’s funeral.  He loved this song, and to this day, listening to it makes me think of him.  I can close my eyes, and remember walking down the aisle to his casket, to say goodbye.  To me, it was the most appopriate soundtrack in my life. 

Stevie Wonder:  Superstition!

i’m amazed you see the continuity between you and me. overweight women, weighted with self-loathing, often encourage me, admire me for my ‘discipline.’ and the women with eating disorders leave me the exact opposite, nagging, worried advice. i feel like we live in two completely different worlds. i feel it necessary to add, too, that i’m not thin. i’m not. i’m 5’10”, towering, monstrous. it’s important, for context.
