Erm... I think this is my very first meme. I'm not cool enough to be tagged. But because my friend zach is all chummy and licking Sara Pink's shoes and all that, he got his through her, and sent it on to me.

Also, wow. I have posted more this week than in the last 6 months. I am so better than you.

The rules: list seven songs you are into right now, no matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to. (via knit, purls & curls)

1. Tripping
Robbie Williams
Intensive Care
Badass song, even better video.

2. To All The Dreamers
Soul'd Out
Yakitate! Japan EP
I heart heart heart this song. Japanese rap? Yes. With eng(r/l)ish? Yes. Awesomeliciousness? Totally. I turn this up sooo loudly in my car.

3. Onna no Ko Otoko no Ko
Yuko Ogura
School Rumble EP
J-pop at its finest. Fun, bubbly, singing about boys and how they're stupid. Rokken.

4. Room Without a Window
Operation Ivy
OPIV EP
1990 ska, represent. An oldie but goodie.

5. King Without a Crown
Matisyahu
Live At Stubb's
This is such a kickass album, everyone should own it, even if you're not zionist or jewish.

6. The Mariner's Revenge
The Decemberists
Picaresque
On repeat while cleaning the kitchen - there's nothing better. Use only in the kitchen, though. Do not attempt to play while dusting or other cleaning. That requires different music (Tool, but I'm not going to get into that now).

7. Kissing The Lipless
The Shins
Chutes Too Narrow
I think this will possibly be on my main rotation for the rest of my life, as it's been in there for 2 years or so now. Short, perfect, Shins.

As for the passing on part, zach and ms. pink pretty much monopolized on our shared friends. Therefore, I tag Queen Alisha, Northend Nique, Styro, and LAURA, who hasn't blogged since November, slacker. I know that's not 7, but there's no hope for me. Also, since I don't think any of the aforementioned peope will actually complete this "meme" (since I don't think they actually read my blog), and if you haven't been tagged by this blog chain-mail thing and want to it, consider this an open invitation to do so per my request. Just input a comment down there, and I'll edit this so it includes your name. Onwards, populaire blogophillies.

i always meant to ask you this - why do you like the japanese anime/pop songs etc.? not that there is anything wrong with it, just wondering...

Well, I tend to watch a lot of anime. I like quite a few of the songs my ears are subjected to within said animes, so I download them and listen to them with fervor. A lot of them are rather good for j-pop.
