Sasha songs

[zuhrovet]

Here's the list of songs I associate with Sasha that would annoy her, for a combination of musical reasons and judgment-of-her-relationship-failure reasons:

• Lord Anthony, Belle & Sebastian ("When will you realize it doesn't pay/ to be smarter than teachers, smarter than most kids?")
  
• All My Money on You, Diana Jones ("Might be the smartest thing I do/ put all my money on you")
  
• Come Back From San Francisco, the Magnetic Fields ("... and kiss me--I've quit smoking!")
  
• Acoustic Guitar, also the Magnetic Fields ("You understand where she's coming from/ which I obviously don't/ or she wouldn't be gone")

Heh, poor Sasha. ^_^

Sasha judges me so much for liking "Acoustic Guitar." I can feel the judgment pouring off her.

(Emulating her music knowledge is really hard! The herpetology nerding is much easier to fake.)

Sasha would probably hate my taste in music, which runs to very conventional classical (J. S. Bach and Tchaikovsky in particular), sugary pop, really sugary kpop, sappy country music, and the more melodic/pleasant strains of rock.

You know, I have no idea what Jedao's tastes in music are. Probably country & western because Texan Shparoi.

Kujen is a snob and likes opera and ballet.

Yeah, Sasha likes some pop, but it's "things that were karaoke standards for a female voice c. 225," so I usually look for 1920s music and then go sideways. I should link things here when I'm extrapolating!

I recently found Oom Sha La La by Haley Heynderickx. It's peak Sasha music, in the sense that it starts out pretty, silly, and singable, swerves through tragic love ("She'll never be your ego/She'll never be a bandit/
She'll never get to eat you like your heart's a pomegranate") and then turns into hopeless screaming.
