Music.
It’s a powerful thing. Something that can bring both joy and tears- kinda like a puppy that has just eaten your favorite pair of 300 dollar shoes.
Damn that dog.
Anyway, like many of you I work in an office all day. Like many more of you I work in front of a computer monitor all day- which means sometimes your mind wanders. When the mind is left to drift you’d be surprised about the stupid fuckin’ tunes that pop into your head.
Here’s ten songs that get stuck on and off in my head on a weekly basis.
Carmel Dansen:
If you’ve ever been to an anime con- guaranteed you’ve seen someone doing this extra bouncey dance. Hell, it was seen on Jimmy Kimmel a few years ago- I’ve even seen a Severus Snape gif dancing to this damn things. As infectious as it is obnoxious- you’ll wish that more real well-endowed women knew the dance instead of the cartoon ones.
Nyan Cat:
I resisted the urge to watch this thing hundreds of times- that is until two friends of mine from the Morbid Anatomy library were singing it enough times to pique my interest.
Duran Duran Tie- “Is There Something I Should Know” and “Rio”:
My brother was obsessed with a capital ‘O” about these guys when I was younger so it’s no surprise why this invades my vacant thoughts. He’s been to many of their concerts, but I’m still convinced that he is one of very few straight men in the audience not being dragged by their girlfriend or wife.
Tank!!- The Cowboy Bebop Theme Song:
By far the best anime theme I have ever heard- from one of the best shows I’ve ever seen- and it has a Corgi
That Blasted Song from the Tainted Donuts AMV:
I hadn’t thought of this song in ages but a few weeks ago in an effort to distract myself from being super pissed at “ Alice: Madness Returns” I put the game on mute and played this song repeatedly until I beat the level. Thanks to this I didn’t throw the controller into the TV..Whoever made this originally I salute you! And the AMV is pretty damn well edited too.
“Legend of Zelda” Theme Music:
If you were an 80’s kid like I was, needless to say you spent many hours playing this game- stuck in the desert looking for fairies and trying to remember which gosh darn rock you needed to move to find that one castle.
“Look At My Horse” stupid damn internet video:
I still think that one part ( you know which one) is kind of disgusting. However, this song gets constantly stuck in my head-sometimes for days. The fact that it pretty much is an endless loop does not help what’s left of my sanity after grad school.
“Me vs. The Angry Mob” The World/ Inferno Friendship Society:
I am a huge fan of this band. I cannot hear this song without thinking of me bouncing around in over sized combat boots every Hallowmas for the last three years If the idea of punk/cabaret and bitching lyrics appeal to you see them live- it’s well worth it
“Castlevania” Theme Music:
Check out the Minibosses awesome cover of this one. Once again, hours of game play translated to me being cursed to hear this until the end of my days. And what a horrible night to have a curse
Extra Bonus: Super-Annoying- Song- That NoLessThanAGod Uses Against Me
If you were a kid in New York, and your parents left you to watch daytime TV- guaranteed you ran into this one incessantly. It must have been played five times a day when my grandmother used to sit around watching “ Days of Our Lives”.
NOLTAG I hate that you made me remember this fuckin’ thing
