. . . . . entries for 21.8.05 . . . . .
Okay, so I got bored with my APUSH reading (which I'm finally doing) and decided, while listening to some perky techno CTY canon, that I would throw together a playlist of what I would play at a 3-hour-long school dance. It is long. Here it is. The songs that cannot go are denoted in bold. Suggestions on altering the other selections are welcome.
Baby Got Back, Sir Mixalot
Hate to Say I Told You So, The Hives
Zoot Suit Riot, Cherry Poppin' Daddies
Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy, Big and Rich
Boom Boom Boom Boom, The Vengaboys
Venus in Furs, Velvet Underground
The Bad Touch, Bloodhound Gang
Istanbul, They Might Be Giants
The Ballroom Blitz, Sweet'
Stayin' Alive, Bee Gees
You and Me and the Bottle Make Three, Big Bad Voodoo Daddies
Cell Block Tango, from Chicago
Lady Marmalade, as in Moulin Rouge
Fashion, David Bowie
Dragostea Din Tei by Ozone
Alright, Okay, You Win by Diana Krall and Tony Bennett

Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend, as in Moulin Rouge
Walking After Midnight, Patsy Cline
The Way You Move, Outkast
Bohemian Rhapsody, Queen
Let's Dance, David Bowie

That goddamn Sean Paul song Shake That Thing, more to shut up the kids who like rap than anything else
Hallelujah, as sung by Rufus Wainwright
Ice Ice Baby, Vanilla Ice
Blister in the Sun, Violent Femmes
Unchained Melody, Righteous Brothers
Buddy Holly, Weezer
Bei Mir Bist Du Schön - no idea who's singing it in my recording

And damn it, I think that's how a school dance *should* operate. :P
