For some of you who had just tuned in the program, the 100 songs meme is one started by this guy right here, and is said to be the songs you would want your future children to listen to. Working on the assumption, that I want any future children of my own, here is the list of songs for my very wonderful awesome children should listen to. In continuing with what has been started, songs 11-20. Here we go:
11. Muse - Sing for Absolution
Absolution is one of my favorite words. I like how it can be so encompassing, the idea of forgiveness. Muse's Sing for Absolution is one of the reason's why sinabsolution is my handle in most my internet accounts.
12. Supreme Beings of Leisure - Strangelove Addictions
Electronica/Trip-hop is one of my first loves when it comes to music. In fact, the first few songs scrobbled in my Last.FM account are songs inspired by the Bristol sound. Best played when trippy and high on alcohol and when you feel like dancing and getting crazy.
13. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps
Wait, they don't love you like I love you. Best cued in when the one you love is about to get on the bus bound to his hometown. At the risk of bastardizing the beauty of this song, I would like to tell you that every single line in this one is epic love.
14. Bloc Party - The Prayer
Is it so wrong to want rewarding? To want more than is given to you? Law school song. No song can get me pumped up and excited over a law school recitation than this one. Affirmation gets hyped the moment I will charm, I will slice, I will dazzle them with my wit gets sung.
15. The Decemberists - Here I Dreamt I Was an Architect
I like how the words come out of Colin Meloy's mouth roll out. Birkenau. I like all the war innuendos and the way how this feels like an accidental love song.
16. Maroon 5 - Sunday Morning
Maroon 5 is my guilty pleasure. So sue me. Sunday Morning really does feel like a lazy Sunday morning to me. Best played on a car bound to the north, on a sleepy Sunday morning-preferably around 6am. Perfect when holding hands.
17. Aqualung - Pressure Suit
The soundtrack to the biggest secret of my life (the reason why I am getting a tattoo) is this song. Don't wanna be forgiven. Maybe I will get two spinning spheres on a bed of stars as a tattoo. Maybe.
18. The Only Ones - Another Girl, Another Planet
All Music Guide dubs this song as the best song ever written. While it may be arguable, I like how this song can be one which stands the test of time. Listening can induce smiling and recounting many nights of being infatuated.
You always get under my skin
I don't find it irritating
You always play to win
19. Meiko - How Lucky We Are
When Pandora opened the box, and all hell broke loose, there was only one thing left inside of it: hope. Which is exactly what this song is about. During my mother's stroke and hospital stint, I had this song singing in the background. I remember singing it while cooking for my sister's graduation party (in the hospital room of my mother) and crying. When all things seem to be in chaos, this song grounds me and makes me hope. Plus Meiko is one of the few female singers who I can actually stand listening to her entire album. Along with Feist and Regina Spektor.
20. Télépopmusik - Don't Look Back
I remember listening to this song and thinking: beautiful music must have beautiful images accompanying it. It sounds so light and dreamy. I can think of several images to attach to this song.
Ang labo ng list na ito. However, I would like to think of it as a result of diverse music taste. hehehe
