I've been tagged by The Laundress with the Seven Songs Meme:
"seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now". Just supposed to list 'em, don't need to link to them."
So I give you the Seven Songs of Ameliabee, Right Now.
Everything's Different Now--The Innocence Mission
A husband/wife group with simple, but gorgeous songs about faith and becoming.
So Like Candy--Elvis Costello
Elvis Costello writes the best post breakup songs, and this is one of them.
All Kinds of Time--Fountains of Wayne
I have Much Love for the Fountain fellas--in particular for this song. It manages to capture one of those brief moments when you are completely in the right here and right now. All while talking about a football game.
A Praise Chorus--Jimmy Eat World
I've been on a kick of doing "Positive Self-Talk" (I know, I read too many self-help books...) and this song is a constant companion for that reason. Plus, it rocks.
This Monkey Gone to Heaven--the Pixies
Just saw them on Austin City Limits, and they still got it. In fact, they got more of it than just about anybody else.
American Cancer--The Evil Queens
You probably don't know the Evil Queens yet, but you will. Check em out on iTunes. That's some great Rawk-n-Roll.
When You Close Your Eyes--Night Ranger
Hey, my reunion is coming up, and I'm feeling nostalgic...or I'm still way into the 80's, take your pick.
Happy Labor Day 2023!

By golly, Ms. Bee,
I think we are sisters.
I only know two of your songs too, but they are two of my absolute favorite tunes by two very favorite groups (Pixies and Fountains of Wayne). Dang.
Off to explore your other suggestions.
So, now you are s'posed to go tag seven other bloggers. If you wish. Keep this meme breathing. I realize I have scarfed up all of the shared and most likely candidates. Sorry. Uh, don't have too though!
Love your selections. My goodness, you are just full of surprises! All the best.
I just knew you were a Fountains of Wayne gal! They have some kickass power pop, great harmonies and are just a lot of fun.
I'm coming up with several blogger friends to tag (don't think I have seven though...) but I might email tag a few more folks as well.
