asilia assigned me the letter "P"
1) "Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison. I don't know if it's possible to listen to this and not picture Julia Roberts twirling all around in her pretty new clothes. This was the first "grown-up" movie I ever saw in the cinema, and I wanted to be a prostitute for the longest time after I saw it! The vid is clips from the movie plus the song.

2) "Penny Lane" by the Beatles. Ok, the song itself is genius, but this "literal version" is even better. "Stupid bus/you scared my horse/now he's too fast" cracks me up even on the 10th viewing. All these literal versions are GREAT btw; I especially recommend the "Total Eclipse of the Heart" one.

3) Paparazzi by Lady Gaga. I'm totally convinced Lady Gaga is just doing the whole "pop star" thing for the lulz. If her name itself wasn't a dead giveaway, this video is. Watch and enjoy; it's such great pop popcorn!

4) Punk Rock 101 by Bowling For Soup. Fuck, I miss B4S. They were funny and catchy and the music actually had really clever lyrics if you wanted to listen. Plus I just loved their image - nerdy guys with guitars hitting it big. The video for this one is so much fun - I love the pants-wetting scene!

5) Puttin' on the Ritz by Taco. Major earwig alert! I don't think it's possible to hear this and not find yourself singing it all day. I ALMOST didn't listen because it'll drive me nuts for the rest of the day, but I just love it too much to pass it up!

In other news, I've had a SHITTY day at work. This calls for internet porn until Hubby ets home and then some live action porn to make me feel better!
*Puttin' on the ritz... dammit!*
