Music Madness

Have you ever stopped to think about the titles of songs and the bands that are behind them? No, seriously... I've been getting a few songs that I remember from a few years back and was just telling my good friend Matt (who I've known since play school) what I'd gotten - and as I was typing them down stuff was just, ya know, popping into my head. Anyway, here's the conversation from msn:

09/12/2004 12:20
Al: downloaded a few classics lately
Al: Ocean Drive by Lighthouse Family
Al: (did they really live in a lighthouse?)
Matt: I think so yeah
Al: Change by The lightning seeds (is that a drug?)
Al: Always by Bon Jovi
Al: and I'll stand by you by the Pretenders (i.e., liars)
Matt: lol
Matt: you're on form today

So that's got me thinking about that kinda stuff - like the irony of the Pretenders (but guess that could apply to any of their songs really). It's like, I've just been listening to the Hackers soundtrack and there's a track called "Protection" by Massive Attack. I'd go through my whole music collection but to be honest I just can't be bothered when there are more interesting things to do like watch my movies.

I've seen 2 out of the 3 movies I rented. The first one was Beverly Hills Cop II (got the first and seen so many re-runs of the 3rd, but strangely never the 2nd) and King Arthur - both very good movies. Next item on the list is The Ladykillers which I plan to watch tonight at about 10pm.

Went to town earlier. Picked up 2 bottles of shloer. 2 for 1 offer. It's good. Bumped into some guy on the way back home who hasn't seen me in a while. He greeted me. I said hello back. He smiled. I still don't have a clue who he was. Got home. Drank lots of Shloer.
I'm in a very happy place right now...
