Good gracious. Harry Brighouse tagged me for this in JULY. I don’t know whether to be ashamed at my lack of blog monitoring skills, or perversely proud that the wiles of technology haven’t sucked me in that far. Anyway, forgive me, Harry– I just saw this link.

I have to confess that all I have by way of an mp3 player is a 4 year old Shuffle, which I use mainly on long car trips, one ear bud dangling out of sight in my lap so as not to attract the attention of the police. This is because the only audio technology I have in my car is a cassette player.

I’m sensing a theme.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1) Britney Spears, “Stronger”

2) Duran Duran, “Is There Something I Should Know”

3) Aguilera/Pink/Mya/Lil’ Kim (isn’t she in jail now?), “Moulin Rouge”

4) Big and Rich, “Ride a Horse, Save a Cowboy”

5) And the entirety of Janet Jackson’s album “Rhythm Nation,” which I still play in the house when there is much laundry to fold.

Tagging Kate Olson, who wrote an absolutely lovely post in response to “Better” and for which I thank her profusely.
