Yep, that eight favorite songs thing. And let me say right now that thank goodness it isn't supposed to be my top favorite eight songs of all time, because I don't think I could narrow it down to eight. But these are eight songs that mean a lot to me, in no particular order.

• Rebel Rebel - David Bowie



• Prettiest Eyes - The Beautiful South



• Plasticine - Placebo



• Really Rosie - Carol King



• Prodigal - Faith and the Muse



• The Perfect Girl - The Cure



• Cloudbusting - Kate Bush



• Starfish and Coffee - Prince

(re-reads list)

Huh. Five of those are on the 'self-esteem' playlist on Candylike the iPod, and I just realized that two of the three that aren't really should be.

People I'd like to see do this in their journal? Oh, any of you, actually. But I'm curious to see how stroppy_baggage, alexiarnps, and collapseylamb would answer.

While I managed to miss "Bela Lugosi's Dead" for your video mix, I did manage to capture "Cloudbusting" for you. It's really a very affecting video.

Oh! I forgot to mention that I have made Emmett a "Starfish and Coffee" breakfast, with starfish shaped pancakes, because he likes the song so much.
