Yawnnnnn. 172 songs.
Has it really been two weeks since I last posted? I guess the Dave Parker 39 really took it out of me. Well, emerging from hibernation I come with a vengeance. It's as if I came right out of detox and the bus is dropping me off right in front of a happy hour. And it's glorious.
Yes, when we last spoke, I mentioned the songs of 2005 list I was putting together. Last year, I put together string of a hundred songs, alphabetically oragnized and it was magical. Unfortunately, when we rang in the new year this time around, I had nearly double the songs I had the year before. Call it laziness or a lack of selectivity, but I've decided to just drop most of those songs, 172 in total, on one big fat web log. It's like a mix tape for 2005, if it was like... six tapes. And for your information, there were rules to these shenanigans much like the DP39, but I broke them like 30 times. It just wasn't worth depriving you, or to be more exact, depriving me.
Yes, I like music. Indulge me.
