Ok, So 40 Random Songs For 10 Bucks....

I talked about emusic.com a while back, and having had a stressful day (more on THAT on the next show) and having already paid my monthly ten bucks, I decided I would get myself a little digital happy...and not the porn kind...
Anywho, I got the following CDs and/or singles tonight.  Feel free to make fun of me if you like....
You gotta appreciate the irony of Tina Turner singing "Stand By Your Man."  It's very Honky-Tonk, which is NOT my type of music, but it's Tina Turner, who very much IS...I didn't know this album existed... Plus if you look closely at the album art - it's a freakin' K-tel record!!!The Hives and Cyndi Lauper sing the white-trashiest Christmas song ever, "A Christmas Duel."  Cyndi actually sings the lyrics, "I went down on your mother."  Charming.  It's Rock-a-billy, so I think the Taffy may actually like this one.  Virgin Voices: A Tribute To Madonna is mostly House and Industrial versions of Madonna songs, going up to Ray of Light - it's very 80s and 90s.  Front Line Assembly doing a cover of Justify My Love?  Babaloo should be surprised he's still fully dressed...
I bought the single "Rise" from Herb Alpert.  I always kinda liked this song, though it reminds me of a straight couple alone on a dance floor in 1978, slow fucking and coked out of their minds.  Well....that's a happy thought....
I love me some Vanessa Williams - I have her first Xmas album, Star Bright, and listen to it constantly around the holidays. This is just a repackaging of her second Xmas album, which I hadn't gotten...until now. Vanessa Williams singing "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas?" I can't talk about it......

Looks like I have some new music to listen to when I am not catching up on podcasts this weekend!  What do you all think?? Head over to emusic and let me know what I should consider getting next month!!
