Downloadin'

[jon_chaisson]

I downloaded a handful of songs off of MusicMatch last night, mostly all stuff that IMF and/or K-ROCK2 has been playing over the last few months. I've been putting together an "IMF Songs" playlist in the process. The only problem doing that is that most of the non-American songs are hella hard to find. That, and I'd have to do a switcheroo on the songs I'd get from iTunes (like the Lady Sovereign stuff), since it's in a different format (read: burn them onto cd, then create an mp3 of the song by way playing the cd through the Roxio program). Pain in the ass, but it works.

Also, Emm is most likely going to swipe the songs and put them on her mp3 player soon...

Songs I got:
Alkaline Trio, "Mercy Me"
Alkaline Trio, "Time to Waste"
Bloc Party, "Helicopter"
Bodyrockers, "The Way You Move"
Franz Ferdinand, "Do You Want To"
Morningwood, "Jetsetter" (requested by Emm)
Morningwood, "Nth Degree"
Motion City Soundtrack, "Everything Is Alright"
Rise Against, "Swing Life Away"
Sia, "Breathe Me"


Note to self:

Songs I should be downloading:
Hot Hot Heat, "Middle of Nowhere"
MIA, "Bucky Dun Gun" (it's one of those annoyingly catchy songs...)
Rihanna, "Hey Mr. DJ" (ditto)
The Streets, "Fit But You Know It"

Lynxie, any suggestions?


Songs NOT to download:
Fall Out Boy, "Sugar, We're Goin' Down" (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
anything by Hawthorne Heights (*cringe*)
The Shout Out Louds, "The Comeback" (whiny Swedish Emo! w0000t!)

How is the new DM album?

Can you believe I STILL don't have it yet? Man, I'm slacking...

So you prefer endless repetition of "Ya-lakka-lakka-lang-lang" to "We're goin' down, down izza shmby anoun, Ya number wood goin' down swingin'"?

I have some other suggestions written down at home, I'll post them later.
If you can find it, Gomo

"We're goin' down, down izza shmby anoun, Ya number wood goin' down swingin'"

HA! *snerk*

That song is like Nickelback--it's good once, but the next 1,000,000,000,000,000 times it gets a bit annoying. ;)

I got "Random" off of iTunes. I think they have "9 to 5" there too.
Speaking of Lady Sovereign, the ep I was trying to think of is called "Vertically Challenged" and comes out 11/15. Doesn't have "9 to 5" though...

Uh oh, don't let kaisilverwolf hear you dissing Nickelback.

What does have 9 to 5?

[joncwriter.livejournal.com]

It's available as an import single. I came very close to buying it when we were in Glasgow, but for some reason decided not to...

heh

Just what I was thinking! Maybe he'll luck out and she won't read the comments...hmmm... ;)

If you're talking about repetition, Nth Degree wins a prize. That tune is far too catchy! Now I guess I'll have it in my head all evening. *sigh*
