Reader Poll

Yep, that means you.

My cousin Cassie always comes up with these great random questions to spark interesting conversations. I am somewhat smalltalk-challenged (especially when conversing with people who are also not so much with the chit chat), so these come in handy during conversational lulls. Plus, you get to find out obscure things about your friends (if they play along). And also, it's just fun.

So, dear readers, today's question is:
If you could permanently remove five songs (no more, no less) from existence, which ones would you banish forever?
Cassie's picks:
These Hands - Jewel
Hey Ya - Outkast
Jack and Diane - John Mellencamp
Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams
Picture - Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow

My picks (off the top of my head):
Far Behind - Social Distortion
Who Will Save Your Soul - Jewel
Amazed - Lonestar
Baby Got Back - Sir Mix-a-Lot
Happy Birthday To You - Mildred and Patty Hill

Which songs would YOU get rid of?

"Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie
"Glamorous" by Fergie
"Fergilicious" by Fergie
"My Humps" by the Black Eyed Peas
"Candy Shop" by 50 Cent

Hmmm. Bit of a trend with those first four, eh? XD I'm guessing Pat's will be Creed, Creed, Creed, Creed, and Creed. At least we're all consistent...? ahaa

1) She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy - some country singer whose name I don't know
2) Boys and Girls - Good Charlotte, and while we're at it, the entire Good Charlotte empire
3) My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion
4) Blue - Eiffel 65
5) The Thong Song - Sisqo

As I told Cassie, this is only for today. Ask me again tomorrow. :)

Since I'm pretty musically dumb...and can't think of any songs I hate right now...I'm just going to tell you that I've kinda (but not really) tagged you on my latest blog entry. Check it out!

Just wanted to let you know that I have revived the blog. Hopefully I'll have a new layout by Christmas.

Grad school has been killer.

My Five:
"Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie
"Nookie" by Limp Bizket
"Lucky" by Britney Spears (OMG I hate this song)
"What's This Life For" by Creed (Are you kidding me! Why was this even made!?)
That LAME ASS SONG by Los Lonely Boys. I can't remember the name and I don't want to. I HATE it!

I'm bad with songs. I can't remember names or who sings them. Plus you're all picking REALLY good ones, so I'll leave you to it. However...

Don't Monica and Ross have a cousin Cassie? Your cousin Cassie doesn't happen to look like Denise Richards does she?

Kristen said...

Bravo, everybody! You've all chosen perfectly craptastic songs. Good job!

Oh, and Jo, yes - Monica and Ross do have a cousin named Cassie. My cousin does not look like Denise Richards, though. She DOES, however, look like Anne Hathaway. For reals.

ok ok ok. i have spent a ton of time researching this. i have searched catalogues, googled, researched, quizzed friends and looked through their cd's (not MY cd's because, you know, my cd's are aweomes), and finally i have just barely managed to narrow this list down to five. i am exhausted, but i feel my effort has been worth it. the following is the five songs that should be deleted from all playlistsNAY....from history itself:





1. all creed
2. all country
3. all hair metal
4. all boy/girl bands and singers
5. all new rock

- and -

6. hey macarena by los del rio

i honestly tried as hard as i could to narrow it down as much as possible. if you can see any possible way to make this list smaller, please send me your suggestions.

word. i prOwn3d this game.
