Guilty Pleasures

There are way to many tunes on my iTunes. I keep going through my stash of CDs and loading more and more things that I haven't heard in years. I've had to create multiple play lists for different frames of mind - and while I am not out running like SMID, each list serves its purpose.

Getting ready for the Symphony? Various big boisterous classical works.

Busy, must-focus work day? A list of almost all Sondheim that I know so well it's almost like white noise.

Bopping around the Quarter and Marigny, stalking things to photograph? Pure guilty pleasures -upbeat, catchy and wickedly infectious.

The movie Flash Gordon was so deliciously cheesy - but the music by Queen really made it so iconic of that time.

Just give in.

Smile.

And sing along - you know you want to...

Oh. Definitely!!!

And I couldn't think of those pleasures when I commented on SMID's blog this morning, but now one comes to mind:

Music for Elevators by Anthony Head

Oh my gosh - will you still like me after I write this?

I don't know that song. Bad me.
