in accordance with my world famous procrastination, i have compiled a new itunes playlist, aptly titled "cleaning mix". naturally, the selection has taken a good hour, as it has to be just right if i am to be inspired into vacuuming a house full of moehair (sweaters anyone?), folding all the cats' laundry, and scrubbing the kitchen.
after many revisions, here is the final list, by artist only. you can guess the songs yourselves:
bananie's cleaning mix:
aimee mann
anna nalick
beck
black eyed peas
blackalicious
calexico
cat power
coldplay
damien rice
dar williams
david gray
death cab
eels
emiliana torrini
emilie simon
finn brothers
flaming lips
frou frou
gillian welch
gnarls barkley
gorillaz
imogen heap
jars of clay (sup flibbity)
justin timberlake
kanye west
keane
kt tunstall
modest mouse
my morning jacket
old crow medicine show
raconteurs
radiohead
sarah mclachlan
sixpence
stars
thom yorke (eraser bootleg-yum!)
unicorns
white stripes
yeahyeahyeahs
66 songs, 4.1 hours. now, to clean.
or maybe i should compile my "post cleaning" mix, so that i have something to listen to afterward? something with mellow sufjan or iron and wine? trespassers william anyone? oh the things to do.
i can't be alone in my soundtrack to everything obsession. what would you include in your cleaning mix?
So you're a finn fan, huh? My girlfriends have followed them to New Zealand and back. I don't know about the finns, but if you've never been to new zealand, I highly recommend it. It's the closest thing to heaven on earth that I have found.
rock on....
