my mullet mix...
So I was reading some of my favorite blogs the other day and I of course I made my way to my good friend Nate's blog. I got really excited because he had a new post…and so I did what anyone would do once they realized there was a new post on one of their favorite blogs…I read it!
Okay so Nate, It was really funny (or at least I thought it was funny) because as I finished reading your blog I saw that you had tagged a few other people to take the iTunes challenge…and I was one of them along with Aubrey and Jessica Red (I don’t know Jessica, but I bet she is super neat!). And it worked out great because Aubrey and I were meeting for a glass of wine before I went in to get my Mullet cut off (long story). But Aubrey and must have spend a half hour just talking about what songs we were going to choose…
Okay so here are the steps (copied and pasted from Nate’s blog):
1. scan through your itunes or cd library. refamiliarize yourself with the nooks and crannies of your musical options.
2. identify five categories — genres, if you will — of music. these should be as obscure and finely-articulated as you’d like. feel free to use modifiers liberally.
3. nominate — select, really — a “perfect song” for each category. include a link for each song to something (the amazon page for the CD, or the artist’s website, or whatever). you may find it easier, as i did, to find “perfect songs”, and craft categories or genres around them.
4. ideally, some of the songs will be nominally obscure, or, at least, not completely mainstream and overplayed. no need to tell us all about songs we all know!
So like any redhead would do…I have risen to the challenge.
