6 Days...
... 'til Viki arrives (by which time I will hopefully be better, but more about that in a bit).
Woo-hoo!
Time for another thing I'm going to inflict on the poor girl... my somewhat "eclectic" musical taste, and the fact that if I'm sat here at the computer at home, then I'll have iTunes on "shuffle", and will probably be singing along (somewhat badly) to whatever's on at that given moment.
And if it's something that is just perfect for whatever mood I'm in, or I haven't heard it for a while, or it's the soundtrack to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", then I might even have it on repeat a few times (tonight's repeated track was "Tongue-Tied" from "Red Dwarf")... *Ahem*
I've given up trying to convince anyone (or even myself) that my mp3 player is in any way, shape, or form, credible. There was a bit in a magazine I was reading last night that was going on about various members of the editorial staff and what cheese they had on their iPods... and the more I read, the more I realised that my musical taste is dodgy to say the least. They had:
"Atmosphere" by Russ Abbot (yes, it's there, but someone sent it to me as a joke, and I've just never taken it off)
"Snooker Loopy" by Chas 'n' Dave (thankfully, no)
"Saturday Night" by Whigfield (yes, but don't know why... I hate it)
"I Breathe Again" by Adam Rickitt (ditto Chas 'n' Dave)
Assorted showtunes and music from "Fame", "Flashdance", etc (guilty as charged)
Three Enrique Iglesias tracks (fuck)
"The Ballroom Of Romance" by Chris De Burgh (no, but I do have "Don't Pay The Ferryman")
"The Final Countdown" by Europe (ditto Enrique)
All the Eurovision entries since 2003 (some) and everything recorded by Dana International (no, but I do have "Diva")
"We've Only Just Begun" by The Carpenters (no... whew, maybe there's hope for me yet?)
"Rhinestone Cowboy" by Glen Campbell (er... yes)
"Never Ending Story" by Limahl (er... I plead the 5th - I don't care if I'm not American!)
"We Don't Have To..." by Jermaine Stewart (ditto Enrique again)
Selection of old TV themes (er... zip) and "Agadoo" (thankfully, no)
But I think it's fair to say the Music Police would have me banged up for life with no hope of parole.
So, I'm filling up on cheesy songs and obscure tracks in this week before Viki comes... and, if I can shake off this cold, I'll get the bad singing along out of my system too.
Woo-hoo!

I was putting some tracks on my new iPod yesterday but found myself unable to resist putting a few cheesy tracks on including the likes of Toy Soldiers by Martika and Roxtte U Got The Look...in my defense they just remind me of uncomplicated times :), only problem is they now show on my last fm chart lol.
lol... my last fm chart gizmo here is always showing me up!
I've seen me furiously hitting alt & tab to get to iTunes so I can click "skip" before whatever really cheesy song has just started registers with last fm...
