Seven
I’ve been tagged by May8. Good thing too, because I’ve got the itch to post but my brain is too tired right now to perform complicated functions like thinking. Haha.
Here are seven songs that have been rounding my playlist these past months:
1) One Beat (Sleater-Kinney) – Off-beat and edgy but sends a strong message. Just my cup of tea. And just because Sleater-Kinney has already disbanded does not mean that their songs shall be forgotten.
2) Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll (The Killers) – I just love the beat of this song. Love it, love it, love it! It’s one of those tunes that will make you wanna bob your head. I’m so disappointed that nobody from Rockstar: Supernova sang this during the show’s run. They’re all stuck with Mr. Brightside and Somebody Told Me. Oh well.
3) What I Say and What I Mean (The Like) – “‘Never going back and forth, I'm only going forward’, that's what I keep saying. ‘Never going back and forth, I'm only going back’, that's what I mean...” This has actually been the story of my life for most of 2006. But other than that, I just really dig the vibe of this band. And at the risk of being redundant, I have to say that I simply like The Like.:)
4) The End Has No End (The Strokes) – “Two steps forward, then three steps back…” Same idea as # 3. ‘Nuff said.
5) Where Is My Mind (Placebo/Pixies) – The title of the song is actually a question that I’ve asked myself time and again, especially during the second quarter of the year. Focus, POL, focus!
6) Awit ng Barkada (Itchyworms) – This, I think, is one of the better re-makes from the Kami nAPO Muna tribute CD. Another one is Doo Bi Doo (Kamikazee), but May8 already included that on her list.:)
7) We (Menaya) – “We are the dreams that live and breathe…so tall. We’re the hopes, not fears.” It’s one of those “positive energy” Pinoy band songs. We need more of those.
