no ashanti on this list.

its no secret that i'm scared of lightning. i almost got struck when i was a teen and since then i pretty much need to be under the covers to feel safe. last wednesday i was stuck outside during ernesto's torrent, waiting for kesi to get off work and pick me up. the only thing keeping me from a panicked rage was my music.

*outkast, "Vibrate" "prototype" and "da art of storytellin pt2"
"that's just god doin his work."

*dixie chicks, "changes"
dont judge me! really great remake...

*bjork, homogenic. especially "hunter" and
"all neon like." heavy drums... also, "possibly maybe" from post: "but afterwards i wonder, where's the love you promised me?" deep.

*Erykah badu, "certainly" and "next lifetime"

*busta rhymes, "gimme some more"
the PSYCHO sample goes great with rain.

*deftones, "Lucky you"
this song is just sexy.

*rahiem devaughn, "you"
yes...

*Fiona apple, "Tymps" "oh well" and "pale september"
her voice floats over bad weather.

*incubus, "aqueous transmission"
nice cricket sounds at the end...

*ludacris, "war with god"
unreleased dis track to an unknown rapper. the lady singing does her thing.

*MIA, "amazon"
another song with nature sounds. you could fall asleep if she wasnt talking about being kidnapped...

*maroon 5, "sweetest goodbye"
"how does it feel to know you'll never have to be alone..." pretty good, thanks.

*MCR, "the ghost of you"
*NERD, "provider"
songs about losing love...

*nelly furtado, "Showtime"
"Not fair to love you in chains"

*danity kane "right now"

last but certainly not least...

*TI, "get it"
"cuz i got it bitch."

i was remarkably calm when he finally arrived. the power of music. :)

I think I'm the only guy in the fre world who hasn't listened to rahiem devaughn. And that war with god song is tough

Yes! to the Incubus song... Yes! to Nelly Furtado... and I'm starting to think that if you and Lauren both like Danity Kane, I should maybe give them a try. Esp. after I was blasting "Show Stopper" in the car last night.
