Curse you MemeMan!

1. Total amount of music files on your computer?
Laptop: 2917 songs; 9d, 14h, 19m, 56s; 15.82GB
Server: At least that many.
You know, I really should consolidate those two libraries.

2. The last CD you bought was...
CD? A *physical* CD? Oh jeez. Um. Wow. I can tell you the *first* one off the top of my head (Berlin, Love Life), but even after looking at the shelf, I can't tell you the last one. Man, that's pathetic.

3. What was the last song you listened to before reading this message?
We Will Become Silhouettes, The Postal Service

4. Write down five songs you often listen to or that mean a lot to you.
Only five? Crap, I could give 20 easy. Okay, random five, not top five.
I'll stick to personal meaning on these, not listening frequency.
New Order: True Faith
Depeche Mode: Knocking on Death's Door
Jane Siberry and k.d. lang: Calling All Angels
Oingo Boingo: Skin
Johnny Cash: Hurt

Oh yeah. I'm a peppy little bugger.

5. What 3 people are you going to pass this baton to and why?
Let's get a west coast: [livejournal.com profile] retcon, a heartland: [livejournal.com profile] flinx and an east coast: [livejournal.com profile] new_apostasy. Represent!

"Calling All Angels" is also one of my favorite songs and I love the Cash Cover of NIN's "Hurt."

About twice a year, we put the Until the End of the World soundtrack on. It's hard for me to imagine many movies which have better soundtracks. I would only change two things (given that the ordering is true to the movie): use the full version of Neneh Cherry's Move with Me and turn down the volume on Humans from Earth. HfE is so jarringly loud after Calling All Angels.

I'd love to have about 60 seconds of plain silence in between CAA and HfE... *and* the volume on HfE turned down a bit.

Cash's version and video of Hurt came out just before my grandfather died... for some reason it became sort of the anthem of life regrets for me. He and I talked a lot in his last year about such things, and I got the feeling it was the first time he'd ever talked about them. There was a lot of pain in his life that he just kept hidden until then.
