trinityvixenLet's see, how long ago did I leave off with this one? Only, um, five months or so? That's not too bad. Where was I?
Day 01 - A favorite song
Day 02 - A song that makes you happy
Day 03 - A song that makes you sad
Day 04 - A song that reminds you of someone
Day 05 - A song that reminds you of somewhere
Day 06 - A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 07 - A song that you can dance to
Day 08 - A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 09 - A song from your favorite band
Day 10 - A song no one would expect you to love
But...it's country. I swear, I can put up with rap a lot better than I can country. Mostly, I think it's the unnecessary twanging of country. This song is a particularly egregious example of that exact thing that drives me up the wall, but I quite adore it. Perhaps it's the grrrrl power of it? I don't know. I think I got this free from iTunes' weekly download, and it came up on one or another of my regular I'm-too-lazy-to-make-a-goddamned-playlist runs through my iPod's contents on shuffle. And I didn't skip it instantly upon that first "AAAAHVE." (It's "I've," for Chrissakes, country music!) So perhaps this song doesn't surprise some of you all, but it sure as hell surprised me.
Also surprising: I like just about every song off the Burlesque soundtrack. That's perhaps not the most surprising thing, since I have been known to like a Christina Aguilera song here or there. The Surprise: I kinda love Xtina's utterly unnecessarily sampling of Marilyn Manson's "Beautiful People" in her song of the same title. It's kicky and a little silly, but I never loved the original so much that I'm averse to her playing with it. Give it a listen. If nothing else, it's just a little jam that you will probably forget one minute after it's over. Maybe you'll actually like it. If you can overlook how every song off of Burlesque's soundtrack mentions "Burlesque," there are actually quite a few equally fun songs on that whole soundtrack.
