Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've been putting together a play list that I've been calling either Id Girls or Bad Influences, depending on my mood--songs by female vocalists being up front about wanting what they want and/or living how they want to.

Here's what I have so far:
I Want Candy--Bow Wow Wow
Bad Reputation--Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
Come On- Josie & The Pussycats
Summer Girl-Jessica Andrews
I Need A Lover-Pat Benatar
I Want That Man-Deborah Harry
Rehab-Amy Winehouse
Bad Influence-Pink
Sin Wagon- Dixie Chicks
Physical-- Olivia Newton-John
Still Dirrty--Christina Aguilera
Legend of a Cowgirl--Imani Coppola
Don't Call Me Baby- Madison Avenue
hey now (girls just wanna have fun)- Cyndi Lauper
Nasty-Janet Jackson
Shoop-Salt-N-Pepa
These boots were made for walking--Nancy Sinatra
Sexual Revolution-Macy Gray
Sex (I'm A...)- Berlin
I Want To Come Over- Melissa Etheridge

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Ann, that's a ferret.

I Touch Myself -- Divinyls
I Need a Man -- Eurythmics

I'm not sure these exactly qualify as Id or Bad, but certainly women singing about living how they want to:

You Don't Own Me -- Lesley Gore
I Am Woman -- Helen Reddy

Also, in other music news (heard on the radio, so I don't have a link), apparently Quincy Jones is trying to put together a new version of "We Are the World" to benefit Haiti earthquake relief.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

There's got to be some Eurythmics out there that fits the bill, but damned if I can come up with any off the top of my head.

ETA - Ha! There you go.

Thanks!

eta:

You Don't Own Me -- Lesley Gore

Would you have this, by any chance, and feel like sending it to B'Rawk?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It may be a little cheesy, but there's Gimme Gimme Gimme by Abba.

Hee. I was actually debating putting Dancing Queen on there.

Ooh! Trouble, by Shampoo!

ooh, good ones, but I don't have them--does anyone have them to send?

eta: That was for billytea's originally, but also applies to Little Jackie, "The World Should Revolve Around Me" (I have the others, and will add them!)
