"Us Like to Move it! Move it!"
Cameron Crowe is a filmmaker, screenwriter, and personal deity to this particular bloggy writer. Crowe keeps mix tapes of his favorite songs from each particular month of every year. When he listens to an old tape, it brings back memories of what that music meant to him at that point in his life. An audio diary of sorts.
So I'm going to try to regularly list what iTunes says are the most popular songs that I've played in the past few weeks. These aren't just current songs - a lot are older songs that I've just discovered or re-discovered.
If I can do this like Cameron Crowe, then maybe I can write as well as Cameron Crowe. And while I'm dreaming in fantasyland, I'd like a pony.
July 2005 (in no particular order)
Mr. Brightside (Jacques Lu Cont's Thin White Duke Mix) - The Killers
Middle of Nowhere - Hot Hot Heat
All These Things That I've Done - The Killers
Radio Ga Ga - Queen
F*** the Pain Away - Peaches
Collide - Howie Day
Monkey Gone to Heaven - Pixies
Fix You - Coldplay
Handbags & Gladrags - Stereophonics
Cut Here (Acoustic) - The Cure
Hate It or Leave It - The Game & 50 Cent
Feel Good Inc - Gorillaz
I Like To Move It - Eric Morillo and Sacha Baron Cohen

Your taste in music has greatly improved since the days of yore... subjecting your peers to humming renditions of Color Me Badd's "Sex U Up" in Typing Class... I still wake in a cold sweat...
Here at eugeneson.com, WE DO NOT SPEAK ILL OF COLOR ME BADD. To the (aw) tick-tock you don't stop.
And if memory serves me right, you were the one who had to turn his Jane's Addiction "Nothing's Shocking" t-shirt inside out because of nipple issues. You exhibitionist,you.
