So... still working on my bucket-list items, going back to careers that were on my "I want to be x when I grow up." Writer, research librarian, stand-up comedian, dj... DJ! I loved being a DJ at Tongue Point, I have put together a music library that doesn't fit on my Ipod at this point, I still love putting together mix-tapes... I'm going to use Thursdays to curate various playlists.
I'm feeling particularly pissed at cancer this week - not just Hank, I'm angry at Mom's cancer, and my group-mates' cancers, and Edward Carter's cancer (he's this puppy that I've been following on Facebook - don't judge me!) At any rate... playlist for kicking cancer to the curb.
First off... let's start out with the Ray-lettes (ok, so it's mostly Ray Charles, but I think the Raylettes are the heart of the song)
Hit The Road, Jake
Next we slide into country - I love this song (Brandy Clark - the ending line of the chorus is something like "The only thing keeping you alive is I don't look good in orange and I hate stripes")
I Hate Stripes
And of course, if you're talking about throwing off a man, you've got to have some Eartha...
My Discarded Men
And a little Martina
When God Fearing Women Get The Blues
Ok, so Aaron Tippin is not precisely like the others here, but the sentiment definitely fits...
Kiss This
Six angry women are better than just one...
An Odd Version of He Had It Coming
Although when that one is Pat Benatar...
You'd Better Run
Or two, if they're the Wilson Sisters
If Looks Could Kill
In a slightly more pensive mode
"Regretting what I said"
And wrapping up with Queen Bey...
Irreplaceable
There - should be something for everyone. Have a great evening, all...
