Actually, no, if [livejournal.com profile] sharkysmachine asked me to, I just might change my mind and do a meme.

13. A song from your past that would be considered politically incorrect now (and possibly was then).
You Could Be Mine - Guns N Roses


14. A song sung by an fat person.

19. A song that has helped cheer you up (or empowered you somehow) after a breakup or otherwise difficult situation.

21. A song from an artist that you are embarrassed to admit you like.
Shut Your Mouth - Garbage.
(It's not that I'm totally embarassed by liking them at all....it's more about embarassed for how much I like them. Though their last album is straight up boring crap that I deleted off my itunes.)
