Tom gave me his extra capo, but I left my guitar in Sacramento. ![]()
He’s doing a duet with himself! He also does The Little Mermaid and Whitney Houston…
Currently singing to: Jason Mraz-I’m Yours
When I get a capo, I am learning to play this song. Also on my list is Colbie Caillat’s “Bubbly”, though I had it on repeat so much in one day that I might have overplayed it. It’s just too bad when that happens.
Will be missing the last Superb free concert of the semester.
Von Iva sounded intriguing.
These folks make me wish I had talent. ()=how I discovered them.
Alex (high school)
Ariel S Lee (high school)
Timothy Rabbit (heard him singing outside my dorm)
Connie Lim (linked through from a random facebook page)

My mom said I used to love listening to music when I was a baby. Apparently, I would bop along to everything.
I have a feeling she played a lot of soft rock. My earliest memory of music is Don McLean’s “American Pie”. Yeah, when all the kiddies were freakin’ to their R&B or jammin’ to their alternative rock, I was sighing to sappy “rock”.
I just spent way too long looking up some of my old favorites…
*Billy Joel-Just The Way You Are
*Bread-Make It With You
*Van Morrison-Brown Eyed Girl
*Fleetwood Mac-Dreams
*Journey-Open Arms
*REO Speedwagon-Can’t Fight This Feeling
*Chicago-If You Leave Me Now
*Linda Ronstadt & Aaron Neville-Don’t Know Much
*Foreigner-I Want To Know What Love Is
*Bonnie Raitt-Something to Talk About
Oh yeah, and I also used to love country music.
That’s another list…
I am currently obsessed with the SeeqPod search engine.
Edit: Here’s my “grocery store” playlist. Te-he.
SeeqPod Music beta - Playable Search
I live next to the Greek Theater. I listen to concerts. I likey.
The Shins came last night and they sounded pretty good (recording quality hardcoreness). Bryan Adams came tonight. He sounded pretty good too. Yeah, that’s right, I listen to Bryan Adams (i.e. Summer of ‘69, Heaven, Please Forgive Me, I Do It for You). It still gives me the tingles hearing that “All for Love” song from The Three Musketeers movie. I was such a gosh darn sappy child. Freak yeah.
It’s too bad Tegan and Sara are coming to Zellerbach and not the Greek. I’m still not going to pay. Greek Theater concert season is over. Now it’s back to free Friday noon concerts on Sproul Plaza…
Or, chorale group performances throughout the week. So much talent. It. Hurts.
I have a special place in my heart for 80s/90s soft rock. When I listen to KOIT’s “Love Songs After Dark”, I get all romantic. *sigh* I blame it on the fact that I listened to Mix96 in Sacramento for most my elementary years, interspersed amongst stints listening to R&B, then alternative rock, then more alternative rock and a heavy helping of pop.
Oh, Don Henley…your “Boys of Summer” get to me every single time.
Is it any coincidence that KOIT looks like coitus though? Maybe that’s just me…
Edit: So, somewhat along the same vein (i.e. romantic/90s). A grin-worthy scene from Chungking Express (Spoiler? I think.):
I tried looking for the end, with California Dreamin’ in the background, but this is just as cute. No subtitles. Well, he basically asks her out. She says “Why?” He says “Why not? You’re boss said you don’t have to work tomorrow.” She runs into the kitchen saying the Cantonese version of “Crap! Crap! Crap!”
This is what I do to avoid packing…
