luciabWoo hoo! I must be feeling better. I've been listening to music all afternoon while I've been on the computer and have enjoyed it instead of being annoyed or pained. I've been playing "recently added" stuff, and a lot of it is from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
madlori's ketchup list. When I was searching out music from her list, I apparently also just downloaded some stuff because I like the names, or something. One of my favorites is "Take Your Mama Out Tonight" by Scissor Sisters, and I don't see it on the list anywhere. No idea where it came from. Interesting.
Of the musicians that were actually on her list, I've liked Rufus Wainwright, Presidents of the United States, The Shins, Jack Johnson, Michelle Branch, Dresden Dolls, (esp Coin Operated Boy,) Radiohead (Karma Police) and Franz Ferdinand (Michael.) I also ran across one called "Honeycomb" by Frank Black that I like. And either there are two Frank Blacks, or he has a split personality or I had someone else in mind altogether, because I expected screaming vocals and guitars, and this is neither. It's also not the "Honeycomb" I was expecting, but hey. I like it. I like The Decemberists, too-- I think the song "Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect" got me hooked. Heh.
There's a mystery song... it's a female singer and the chorus says "Goodbye to you/Goodbye to everything/You were the one that I loved/ You were the thing I tried to hold on to." The title downloaded as "Track 08" and the artist's name as "artist." Very helpful. I like it, too, and would like to know who I'm listening to.
It was amusing, though.... all this new stuff was playing, and so far it had all been pretty recent-style rock. All of a sudden a wailing blues rock number came on and woke me right up. Good old George Thorogood!
I've got so little of my Christmas shopping done, I don't even want to think about it. I'm going to have to break down and go, even if my headache doesn't completely go away. Dark glasses, hat, whatever it takes. Oh, yeah. Ideas would help, too.
