A musical Baton
Richard Rutter has passed me the musical baton. This being the internet, I figure I should go along with it, or risk having my naughty bits chewed by a photocopier or one of those nasty fates that befall those who break these things. Ergo:
Total volume of music on my computer
4.3 Gb
The last CD I bought
Natalia Lafourcade y la forquetina’s “Natalia Lafourcade” (I know. I suck.) I have just been notified that my Bill Hicks order has arrived, though, so that’ll be the very next one (does that count as music?)
Song playing right now
Losing my Religion, by REM. On Virgin Radio through iTunes.
Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:
- “It’s not too beautiful” by The Beta Band
- “The queen and the Soldier” by Suzanne Vega
- “Everybody knows” by Leonard Cohen
- “Depende” by Jarabe de Palo
- “Into my arms” by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Five people to whom I’m passing the baton:

i feel bad… i feel like i’m hording music.
i have about 23 gigs. :X
but having over three weeks of constant play time is kinda nice, eh?
just got a craving for REM and the Sting. is this wrong? and yes… my Spanish is horrible.
who i ammmmmmmmmmmmmm ammmmmmmmmmmm. you sickos know what i’m talkin bout.
Sergio, i am happy that you have found the positive happy side of life. now you can throw out the trash and focus on the “good stuff”. you are lucky, very few people have this satisfaction.
music makes me happier than anything, besides my crazy wife. i don’t know why she puts up with me.
27 going on 50.
I dont know why, but, i remember posting something similar in spanish :P long time ago, Maybe this started from marianitu in spanish :P
As far i remember was extracted from a mail…
i didn’t even try to translate “musical baton” but i have accepted it a bit later bcause my email was dead for 5 days.
btw, Natalia Lafourcade rocks, that Pato song is hillarious
I used “Depende” by Jarabe de Palo for the opening credits of a video I shot in Barcelona. Great tune indeed. The time, place, and song are all special to me because it was the first trip I took with the girl I eventually asked to marry me. (she said yes)
