Looking for Song Recs

[snogged]

My sister (in her most awesome wisdom) got me $30 worth of iTunes gift cards for my birthday and so I'm looking for song recs because I love hearing the music that touches other people's lives.

Specifically, I want songs that make you laugh...whether its a giggle or a full out chuckle

And songs that make you think sexy, naughty thoughts (come on, what do you expect...I'm a perv. A very sweet, non-creepy perv. *g*
(Some of my personal faves in this category are "Bad Girlfriend" by Theory of a Deadman, "Dirty Little Girl" by Burn Halo, and "SEX" by Nickelback but that's just me and I'm always open for new stuff)

As far as laughter...anything by Tom Lehrer (try The Masochism Tango).

As far as sexy, there's Brite Side by Debbie Harry...hmmm, trying to think of other things...

Sadly, none of my suggestions are available. I should have checked first. Let me try and come up with other ideas.

I have the Masochism Tango and it's awesome :)

Brite Side by Debbie Harry...well, even if its not on iTunes...hopefully, I can find it elsewhere.

Do you know if it's on youtube?

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

It sure is:

oh sweetie...that's beautiful!

I love how sensual it is :)

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

It really is. It's one of my favorite of her songs (or any songs, really). I am so glad you liked it!

The entire musical Songs for a New World.
It's a musical, but not really, in a sense that it doesnt involve set main characters or a central plot, but it's a song cycle running on the motif of life and hope.
It's got some FANTASTIC songs, but my favorites are "I'd Give it All for You," "Steam Train," "Opening: A New World," and "She Cries" (I wrote a Barney/Robin fic based on that song a while ago)
It's one of those songs that make me relax when times suck.

Songs that make me laugh... would be Avenue Q songs. Because you know. They freakin' talk about masterbation, sex, and seduction but do them with puppets.
There's actually puppet sex on stage when you watch it. :D

[snogged.livejournal.com]

Avenue Q is hilarious. I own that whole soundtrack :)

I may have to check out Songs for a New World. Sounds interesting :)

Any songs by Flight of the Conchords always make me smile. And they've sung several songs about their dicks and their sex lives, so they're funny AND dirty. =D

[snogged.livejournal.com]

hee...that sounds awesome :)

Any specific faves?

[da-phoenix13.livejournal.com]

You can check them out on Youtube and see which ones you like (just enter "flight of the conchords" under the search tab).

I'm a particular fan of the ones that are more sweet than dirty, like "The Most Beautiful Girl (in the Room)" and "Not Crying". Though I will say that "Sugalumps", the ode to their testicles, is stuck in my head right now. *sings* "Ladies try all kind of tomfoolery to steal a feel of my family jewelry!"

YOU HAVE TO WATCH SUGERLUMPS! As it is the funny!awesome.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I grabbed Sugarlumps in my search

Funny stuff :)

I've been on a big Lady Gaga kick - Poker Face, LoveGame specifically. :)

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

You have Poker Face? *covets*


Gabrielle

[sionnach-ayame.livejournal.com]

[velvetwhip.livejournal.com]

*squees and hugs you*

YES!


Gabrielle

[sionnach-ayame.livejournal.com]

I'll send you a copy right away!!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I'll look into her and see what I think

[tonnic-x.livejournal.com]

Hey! Sounds like we have similar traits in music!

[snogged.livejournal.com]

awesome :)

[lilithisbitter.livejournal.com]

How about...

Cold Hearted - Paula Abdul (80s song that fits Barney like whoa)
Handsome Man - Robbie Williams (Modern song that fits Barney like whoa)

[snogged.livejournal.com]

thanks for the recs :)


I'll check into those

[jewelledfairy.livejournal.com]

There's one that kind of falls into both categories. It is called "(I Wanna Be) Your Underwear" by Bryan Adams.

Monty Python has some good ones, too: sit on my face, the penis song...

[snogged.livejournal.com]

hee! Love the Bryan Adams one. I grabbed that.

And Monty Python rocks :)

[rua1412.livejournal.com]

It's an old but a classic one... "You can leave your hat one" by Joe Cocker.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

thanks hun!

[rileysaplank.livejournal.com]

Common Rotation's "With my Trumpet in my Hand" will cover chuckling and naughty thoughts (Just think innuendo while looking at the title), though probably isn't sexy or sensual. Not sure if it'll be available on iTunes either.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

OMG!

I love that song :)

And I've got the CD so no worries.

[cee-m.livejournal.com]

Um... I'm having a really hard time with this because I would just send things to you... hmm... must think of this and just make you a mix.

But for a funny that would be a good download...

[snogged.livejournal.com]

sweetie...

If you've got songs for me, just send 'em my way :)

And I heart Straight No Chaser.

[cee-m.livejournal.com]

Well it took me the better part of 4 hours to come up with and write up...

There are a few songs guaranteed to get me in the mood. *g* Most...okay, all of them are country.

Doin' Something Right- Billy Currington
Come A Little Closer- Dierks Bentley
The Man That I Am- James Otto
Different Kind of Knight- Christian Kane

[snogged.livejournal.com]

thanks for your suggestions!

Do you have the CK song as an mp3? I couldn't find it at iTunes.

[angelskuuipo.livejournal.com]

I do. I can send it to you.

I couldn't come up with any funny songs last night, but this morning I thought of one that always makes me smile. Do you remember Mahna Mahna from The Muppets? I can send that one to you also.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

hee...Mahna Mahna is awesome :)

Thanks hun!

[angelskuuipo.livejournal.com]

Check your inbox. I sent them late this morning. If you didn't get them, let me know and I'll send you the links again.

[snogged.livejournal.com]

I got 'em both

You're awesome!!!

[angelskuuipo.livejournal.com]

Sweet.

You're pretty swell yourself. :) {{hugs}}
