Day 129: If My Playlists Reveal What Mood I'm In, I'm Mostly Pissed but in the Mood for a Sexy Dance

After design, art, and other things, Music is one of my favorite things.

("Music is My Hot Hot Sex" by CSS, pretty much describes my love for music)

Which means I have a lot of songs,encompassing several genres and time periods. 

and because I have a chronic case of musical ADD, meaning that one moment I may be listening to jazz and then have a sudden urge to listen to heavy metal, I try to organize my songs to whatever I feel like listening to. 

However, I noticed that I really don't give it too much thought when I name these playlists...

Here are the playlists that I have on my itunes.

1) Angry

2) Really Angry

3) Dance Mix

4) Ultimate Dance Mix

5) Sexy Dance Mix

6) Hip Hop

7) Fight Song

8) Why Can't I Sing Like These People

9) Relax

This is actually rather embarrassing, but hey, I think I've subjected myself to worse ridicule than this...(wtf...sexy dance mix? when the heck did I make that..)

I just noticed today that I don't have a 'Happy' Mix or something like that.

I thought that perhaps my dance mix was my unofficial 'Happy' playlist, but wanting to get up and dance is different than feeling happy..I think.

So I decided to make my 'Happy' playlist..today, by going through all my songs and just listening to the ones that I remember made me feel happy, bring back really great memories for me or make me happy just singing along off-key to.

Some of them are pretty embarrassing in my opinion..but hey, like I have said before. If it makes you happy, who cares what anyone else thinks

and so, here they are:


Ventura Highway - America

 Around the Bend - The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

 I Believe in a Thing Called Love - The Darkness

What You Won't Do For Love DZ Remix - Bobby Caldwell

Satellite - Guster

Float On - Modest Mouse

 Always - Stevie Wonder

 American Pie - Don Mclean

 The Book I Write - Spoon

 Band on the Run - Paul McCartney and the Wings

 Qui de Nous Deux - M

 Chariot - Gavin Degraw

(good times, good times)

Dim Sum Girl - Notorious M.S.G

Get Up Offa That Thang - James Brown

Hello Its Me - Todd Rundgren

Duncan - Paul Simon

There are a lot more songs than this, but...I think it'd be overkill to add all of them. But you get the idea. (I'm beginning to see that its mostly songs from the 70's that makes me smile)


I'm glad I took the time to make this playlist. After listening to these songs, I feel a bit better. 


I hope it made you feel better too.
