I so want everybody to do this meme. It's like a snapshot of your personality, and I like imagining what *tone* of scene goes along with the songs. DO IT!!

Also, I now have so many Simpsons icons it's really quite alarming. If you're not me.

best meme ever! I shall ponder.

and thank you for the songs :)

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

You are welcome! I am totally looking forward to seeing your movie soundtrack. *g*

[callsigns.livejournal.com]

That meme is brilliance. I shall do it after I go listen to Vincent D'Onofrio!

[i-naiad.livejournal.com]

What a cool meme. I suspect I will grab some songs later, but be too lazy to do it myself. *g*

Also, did you get the vegemite yet? I would have expected it to arrive by now.

[jewelianna.livejournal.com]

I love the Simpsons icons. So many memories...

And the meme. Hmm. That will require thought.

*raises a shot of whiskey for Spirit of the West*
*raises a lit lighter for Tom Waits*
Some very interesting choices there!
I don't think I know music enough to really give it a go, but I'll ponder and see if I can't come up with something. (If for no other reason than to spread the music, mon.)

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Spirit of the West is *such* a Canadian institution. And Tom Waits is just THA BOMB. ♥!!

1. I went to look at your icons and awww Bender and turtle.

2. I love this meme so much but I can never complete it. Therefore, I will just steal the music you provide (wait, you can't steal free things) and thank you gloriously!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Bender and that turtle make me laugh SO HARD. When they're both lying on their backs waving their limbs! ahahahahaha!

[supersyncspaz7.livejournal.com]

ack, I'm gonna do that in... a few more minutes. Or something.

[strippedhalo.livejournal.com]

I fully intend to do this sometime... soon. When my attention span is longer than 30 seconds. But! Thank you for 'Brimful of Asha', I've been meaning to track it down for a very long time and now I don't have to! The summer that it was really popular, my best friend's boyfriend called me EVERY SINGLE TIME he heard it on the radio and held the phone up to the speaker during "everybody needs a bosom for a pillow" as 'encouragement' for me to go find a boyfriend. It was, in its way, very sweet. :)

held the phone up to the speaker during "everybody needs a bosom for a pillow" as 'encouragement' for me to go find a boyfriend

awwwww. One of my friends kept singing it as "everybody needs a bosom for real" and then she'd look sadly down at her (rather flat) chest. *g* That song is good times all 'round, man!

[cathybites.livejournal.com]

all of those Simpsons icons and not a single one of Lenny and Carl? tsk tsk.

and this meme is awesome. I'll have to do it when I have a bit of time.

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

ahahahh! Lenny and Carl and their homoerotic interracial love are totally YOUR division. *g*

[kaffy-smaffy.livejournal.com]

There can never be too many Simspons icon.

This meme is fantastic! And thank you for the songs.

[leksa.livejournal.com]

ooh, sweet, I love this meme every time it does the rounds. Also, grabbed some songs, thank you.

[ciderpress.livejournal.com]

even if i didn't love you already, your icon of myra with that look on her face and the tag "dear valancy jane" would have had me swearing eternal... eternal things.

the blue castle! ahahaha! and sosososo right. and hey, cool music meme but is it music for the one movie in your head or music from one scene of any number of movies and hey, that doesn't make sense! hah!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

If anybody would understand the Valancy Jane reference (apart from kitchendinah, a longtime fan of all things LMM), it *woud* be you, you wonderful dear little thing. *snuggle*

is it music for the one movie in your head or music from one scene of any number of movies

It is the soundtrack of the *perfect* movie-in-my-head! At least, that's how I understand it. *g*

[prettypinkkitty.livejournal.com]

Hurray! I took a few songs, but the meme was awesome. May do this when I have time.

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

Something I forgot to come back and tell you after you shared all those songs last time. I listened to that Bye Bye Mon Cowboy song and realized I'd heard it before and that made me laugh a really lot. I still can't figure out where unless I saw the video back when we had Much Music for a while in the 90s. I have no recollection of the video, though, just the song.

Also, I nabbed a couple of these as well. Thanks!

[bossymarmalade.livejournal.com]

Heh! hnix mentioned that she'd heard the Mitsou song in a Canadian show that starred Callum Keith Rennie, Molly Parker, and Hugh Dillon; I know you've seen, like, ten times the CKR stuff that I have so I'm betting that (or some other Canuck show) is where you've heard the song! *g*

[mumblemutter.livejournal.com]

ooo...*snatches meme and songs*

danke!

[oneko-briar.livejournal.com]

not on your list, but since i went through the whole alphabet it merits a thankyou.

thankyou.

[birdsflying]

Oooh, interesting. I shall plot my movie theme over the weekend, I think. Grabbed a couple of the songs too.
