A blog currently wondering which of the One Direction boys will take him home. Other obsessions: hot boys, Britney Spears, the Disney pop princesses, French New Wave cinema.

My Wedding Song?
According to a very elaborate dream I had last night, this is the song I chose as my wedding song. And my mother was not exactly pleased with my choice. In the dream, she couldn't convince me to change my mind, so she tried to get my dad involved and tell me what a dumb idea it was. Lord knows I love the song, but I have to agree with my mother on this one (and you don't know how much that hurts); 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' is not exactly an appropriate wedding song. Besides, I've had mine picked out since high school: 'Stickwitu' by The Pussycat Dolls. Now that's an appropriate wedding song.

Best Actress Playlist
A couple of weeks ago, I randomly noticed that in my iTunes I had three songs whose titles corresponded to the titles of three of Bette Davis' Oscar nominations. I thought this was a funny coincidence so I tried to see if I could come up with any others. I didn't--you try finding a song called Mr. Skeffington!--but it got me thinking about what other Best Actress-titled songs I could find in my iTunes. Here's what I came up with, in order of the Oscar nomination:
Jessica Lange, Sweet Dreams
'Sweet Dreams' by Beyoncé
'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' by The Eurythmics
Reese Witherspoon, Walk the Line
'I Walk the Line' by Johnny Cash

'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' by The Eurythmics
Reese Witherspoon, Walk the Line'I Walk the Line' by Johnny Cash
And, in case you're missing any and want to complete this amazing playlist, click on this link and you can download them.
I know this playlist is hardly exhaustive, so does anyone have any suggestions? There's a song from the 80's called 'Suddenly, Last Summer' but I wasn't able to find it online. And there has to be songs called 'Queen,' 'Blue Sky' and 'A Man and a Woman,' but I haven't come across them. I'm hoping some of my more music savvy peeps can help out in that regard. Bonus points to anyone who can find a song called 'The Story of Adèle H.'
