gogmagogIt's Learn 10 5 More Things About Yosi Time, Special Music Edition!
Note that they'll no longer be numbered because I've forgot which ones I'm on. -_-;
1. When I was little, my babysitter Nancy watched Dirty Dancing constantly. I mean, CONSTANTLY. Like, every day, sometimes multiple times a day. So needless to say, as long as I can remember I've known all the songs to and most of the dialogue of that movie by heart. Gosh, I need to see that again...
o/` I've had~ the time of my life~ o/`
2. Also when I was very small (about 4 or so), apparently there were a few songs I loved to hear on the radio. Specifically, Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors" (in God's name, why?) and the Eagles' "Take It to the Limit." I don't remember this particularly well. And while the Eagles song has held up pretty well, listening to it now Cyndi Lauper's song is crap on a stick - I have no idea why I liked it so much.
3. When Disney's Aladdin came out, I got the soundtrack on tape for Christmas and played it constantly. My mom finally got me a Walkman so they'd stop having to hear it. As it is, every time they hear "A Whole New World" they feel the need to twit me about playing it pretty much NONSTOP for most of a year.
4. My parents loved Holly Near - who's this hippie lesbian folky singer/songwriter - when I was about 8 or 9. In fact, the first and only concert I've ever gone to was hers, and I got an autographed copy of her autobiography at it. (The other people in line there looked kind of strangely at this little kid wanting to buy her biography all about lesbianism and activism and stuff, but whatever.) My parents processed down the staircase at their poets' wedding (which is an entire other entry unto itself) to her song "The Great Peace March." XD
5. My mom briefly dated one of the guys in Kansas (you know, the "Dust in the Wind" guys?).
THE MORE YOU KNOW.
