Crazy Summer Listening

I caved. About two weeks ago, I bought an RCA Pearl mp3 player. I resisted for the longest time and quite honestly, I can't believe that I bought one sooner. I have no idea why exactly that is because my portable CD player was so cumbersome and tempermental. Not to mention the constant changing and carrying my collection of CDs. But with my Pearl, I can be picky and choosy with songs and easy to load. It fits in my pocket and I wouldn't even know it was there. Pure heaven!

So you must ask, what is on my playlist. Quite a bit of everything, but lately I have really been digging Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse. Both youthful with raw lyrics of love lost and careless times. It brings me back to a time before a child that I experienced angst and a path to find out exactly who I am.

And yes, the lyrics, especially Amy's is well, raunchy. I never quite realized it until I started reading the CD insert. But quite honestly, aside from that, I think the music supercedes it. It really is good stuff. I do suggest you check it out. It might be your cup of tea.

So what esle is on there? Well, here is a page to tell you.

hehehe both of those i have and the lyrics arent that raunchy once you knwo the uk context - you should know how i 'talk' so most of it isnt that bad in context, just most usa/canadians dont normally here that sort of 'talk' in the open :)
