So, what's everyone listening to at the moment?
Currently, I've been listening a lot to Absolute Garbage, the Greatest Hits album from Garbage.
Both #1 Crush and You look so fine remind me of Logan Echolls, btw

I thought it would be cool to have a topic about music, hope you don't mind.

Ooh, cool idea!
Garbage! Love them! (and yes, it's sounds funny to say outloud). #1 Crush, You look so fine, The World is Not Enough and, of course, Bad Boyfriend are all VM/LoVe/Logan songs to me! And it's so good to find out I'm not the only one. LOL. Hmm, what am I listening to... Such a total, random mass of things. Always Leonard Cohen (at this point, he is the soundtrack of my life, lol), The Essential Leonard Cohen. Amy Winehouse, Back to Black. Her voice owns my soul right now, even if her lyrics make me uncomfortable (maybe that's the point?). Across the Universe soundtrack that someone slipped me. Not the greatest singing, but for some reason I can't stop listening. Even with the less-than-Beatles-caliber delivery, the songs are magic! Happiness is a Warm Gun gets a lot of play with me right now. What else. Odds and ends, really. Some Johnny Cash (one of the few country/folk/whatever I can stand). Some oldies. Louis Prima mostly, but I've got others. And a song here and there from tons of different sources, too numerous to mention. |

I didn't remember the song and judging by the title I wasn't seeing it.
Btw, today I listening to Michelle Branch's "Goodbye to you" and instantly remembered your "Insisting on LoVe" fic |

Quote:"Bad Boyfriend" played twice during 1.22 "Leave it to Beaver." First when Veronica saw Logan at his locker in the empty school hallway, and then later when Logan was on the bridge, when Weevil confronted him. It's definitely a Logan, Logan/Veronica-ish song. |

So weird, Jane you listed a lot of what I listen to. Great minds I guess lol. I absolutely adore The World Is Not Enough, brilliant song. I know what you mean about Back to Black, the lyrics are somewhat disturbing but enthralling too.
I'm also listening to Tegan and Sara at the moment because I told a friend I would go see them with her next month. The rest is pretty much a total mash up, I'll listen to everything and anything depending on my mood. I'm going through a Nick Cave phase at the moment, The Beatles and The Beach Boys (Pet Sounds) are never far away. Mostly old school stuff, there's not many bands that are a)still together or b)all members alive that I listen to. |

XiuFang, as Jennifer said, the song is played twice in the first season finale. And to me, when Logan is balancing on the railing of the Coronado bridge, drunk and defiant, the song is just so him! And a LoVe song, too, especially at that shaky time in their relationship:
"Bad Boyfriend" I've got a fever, Come check it and see. There's something burning and rolling in me. We may not last, but we'll have fun till it ends. C'mon, baby. be my bad boyfriend. I wanna hear you call out my name. I wanna see you burn up in flames. Keep you on ice so I can show all my friends. C'mon, baby, be my bad boyfriend. So ripe, so sweet, come suck it and see. But watch out, Daddy, I sting like a bee. I know some tricks I swear will give you the bends. C'mon, baby, be my bad boyfriend. My fever's rising, you ran into luck. Say what, sugar, You wanna get what? I wanna give you one hundred and ten. C'mon, baby, be my bad boyfriend. It's wild the way you tease me. It's wild the way you free me. It's wild the way you reach me. Wrapped me up in your wire from the start. You've got the women waiting in line. I'm not asking you to make up your mind. But I can make you happy at least now and then. I've got something special for my bad boyfriend. If you can't love me honey, go on, just pretend. I've saved something special for the very end. If you can't love me honey, go on, just pretend. C'mon, baby, be my bad boyfriend. Yeah, not Shakespeare, but it's not intended to be. Quote: Ooh, I'll have to check it out now! And thank you! Jennifer, I have a lot of "old-school" Alanis on my playlist, too! Daria, great minds, indeed! LOL. I love "The World Is Not Enough"! Such an underrated song. Sigh. |

I didn't know what song it was.
Now I do and I see it. Also, how cool is this song? It also reminds me of Logan, the post-"yeah, someday" walking away Logan, leaving Veronica to swoon Apologize I know this is not a LoVe board, but there are a LOT of LoVe fans on the board and out of respect to them, we try not to refer to Veronica as that. Believe us, we are, a lot of times, right there with you feeling frustrated with the character. It's just that we try to have an all-inclusive environment and sometimes it takes watching out for what we say and how we phrase it. No biggie and thank you. |

I'm sorry
I also love Alicia Key's new song now, No One No One This song doesn't remind me of JD and his characters, but that's ok, because sometimes I also need some "me" time |

I hope none of you will report this to Your Hotness Josef and have me banned, but I actually like Britney Spears's new single (can one say it's her
single when that is hardly her voice????)

That's it, you are officially banned!
LOL. It's perfectly fine. I have liked many a so-called "guilty pleasure" thing, except I tend not to feel any guilt. |

Madonna's first single from her new album Hard Candy:
4 Minutes Somehow everything I listen to this song, I imagine good old Josef stomping and swaying at the sound of it Be warned that it is the only decent song in the album though. |
