It gets lonely working from home, all alone except for my three cats. Sometimes I get a bit stir crazy, talking to the cats, sometimes even dancing with them.
While the mental health ramifications of the conversations I have with my cats are questionable, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking a little dance break mid-project.
After the jump, my Dance Machine playlist:
- Annie: “I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me”
- The Beatards: “Pretty Lil”
- Big & Rich: “Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy”
- Blacked Eyed Peas: “Pump It”
- Black Eyed Peas: “My Humps”
- Dolly Parton “9 to 5”
- Estelle: “American Boy”
- Fischerspooner: “Emerge”
- Fugees: “Stand By Me”
- Goldfrapp: “Ooh La La”
- Justin Timberlake: “Sexy Back”
- Kanye West: “Stronger”
- Katy Perry: “I Kissed a Girl”
- Katy Perry: “Hot n’ Cold”
- Kid Rock: “All Summer Long”
- Korn: “Word Up”
- Madonna: “Hung Up”
- MIA: “Paper Planes”
- Michael Jackson: “Ease On Down the Road”
- Missy Elliot: “Work It”
- Natasha Bedingfield: “These Words”
- Roxette: “The Look”
This list is horrifyingly embarrassing, obvs, but I didn’t leave anything out. Because I am an oversharer like that. What are your psych-me-up tunes and boogie-down ballads?
I have a playlist to help me get going in the morning. My musical caffeine if you you will. Here is a sampling of my wake up and get going work music:
– Rise, Eddie Vedder
– Whip-smarkt, Liz Phair
– If you want to sing out, Cat Stevens
– I was a daughter, Basia Bulat
– Little Bird, Annie Lennox
– Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo, Bloodhound Gang
– Diamonds on the soles of her shoes, Paul Simon
– Dil Dance Maare, Vishal & Shekhar
– Strong, Kayne West
@syd: I love that Bloodhound Gang is on your list. I don’t know that particular track! Looks like I have some downloading to do.
