Happy Birthday Happy Birthday!

January 15, 2007

Troll Baby (the blog, not the little kid that runs around here) is TWO years old!

Enjoy this little diddy from 16 Candles. Clearly this video is from a time LONG before Crest Whitestrips.

It’s been a great ride, these last two years. Thanks to everyone who ever commented, and to the many friends I’ve made online.

And now, an iTunes meme!

I stole this meme from Amanda and given my love music - I had to do this one:

Open iTunes. Click the column header for  Play Count . What are the first five songs listed?

* Inside and Out by the Feist.

* When I Was a Young Girl by Feist.

* Secret Heart by Feist.

* Mushaboom by Feist (Amanda’s first 4 songs were by the White Stripes…weird.)

* Tango Shoes by Bif Naked.

Click the column header for Last Played. What are the first 5 songs?

* Dare by Gorillaz

* Chick Habit by April March.

* Send the Pain Below by Chevelle.

* Hurt by Nine Inch Nails.

* I Found a Reason (Velvet Underground) by Cat Power.

Click Party Shuffle. What are the first 5 songs?

* Wonderwall by Cat Power <-- LOVE this song!

* Destroy Everything You Touch by Ladytron.

* Smack That (feat. Eminem) by Akon. (*snort* that song cracks me up)

* Monster Hospital by Metric.

* Tarantula by Pendulum. <-- LOVE this song!

Click the column header Year. What are the first 5 albums from 1994?

I don’t have a column header like that, so I put the 5 longest tracks:

* Sweetney Holiday Remix (1:12:04)

* Euphoria by Delirium (9:20)

* Bittersweet Symphony (Jungle Remix) by Capital J (7:33)

* Lover’s Spit (with Feist) by Broken Social Scene (7:32)

* Magic and Mayhem by Afro Celt Sounds System (6:35)

Click the column header My Rating. What are the first 5 albums?

I haven’t rated anything, since I had no idea you could.

Finally, look at the bottom of your iTunes window. How many days of music do you have?

* 3.7 days - holy shit! All I need is coffee and an empty house to enjoy it all by singing along without the constant “STOP DAT SINGING MOMMY!”

I’m tagging a couple of crazy kids who I know have awesome taste in music. I need some new finds, stat. If YOU have awesome taste in music too, please please PLEASE let me know…my ears are STARVING.

    Bittersweet Symphony - Jungle Remix? I’m intrigued.

    My new very favorite song that makes me laugh but is totally not appropriate for kids to hear so I only listen to it on my ipod headphones while running (hello run on sentence) is by Eamon and is called F**k It. Try not to laugh if you listen to it. I dare you. But I don’t thinkit’s meant to make a person laugh, so maybe I am just crazy like that.

  9. Gravatar tori Says:

    Also, happy birthday to your blog! It shares a birthday with my little man who is 3 today, but since he refuses to be three, I guess he is still 2. Whatever.

  10. Gravatar InterstellarLass Says:

    Happy Blog Birthday! Mine was Friday. Two years is grand, ain’t it?

  11. Gravatar Kim Says:

    Happy Birthday!!! I really like your new design, very nice!

  12. Gravatar Sassy Says:

    Happy Freakin’ Birthday! Whaddya get me? Wait, it’s not my birthday, it’s yours. Well not yours, your blog’s. So I guess I get nothing. Oh. Oh. Oh. Whatever betch. F*** You! And by f*** you, I mean I love you. Anyhooooo’s, seriously happy blogging, love the new colors, hate the bday video (it’s annoying and by annoying I mean I want to hang myself or cut you. Whichever.) but I did manage to listen to 1.7 seconds of it just for you. You mean that much to me. Two years,wow, it seems like 87 years but who’s counting? MUAH! (That was a big wet sloppy kiss because, again, you mean that much to me). Let’s get some shoes. Love you more than Britney loves showing her vagina and that’s ALOT dude.

  13. Gravatar Christina Says:

    Happy two year birthday! Love the new design!

    And it’s nice to know I’m not the only one with a toddler who hates to hear me sing. She screams at me anytime I, or any other non-professional, tries to sing. Only professional singers, who have recording contracts and preferrably appear on Jack’s Big Music Show, are allowed to sing in her mind.

  14. Gravatar motherofbun Says:

    Love the new design. And Happy Birthday!

  15. Gravatar Mom101 Says:

    Happy happy two years, Karen! And thanks for the video - much better than the Wonderpets theme song I’ve had in my head all week.

    PS Lurving the new look!
