You're a little bit damaged

and I'm a sucker for that and this song.

Another reason why Asia is cool.

And that reason is BoA. Hailing from South Korea, she is totally gorgeous, a kick-ass dancer and has some catchy songs. I've been obsessed with this track for a while now, awesome music video too.

The " 1 2 3 4" playlist

I couldn't decide what I wanted to listen to so I just made up a playlist searching only for songs with numbers. It brought up a lot of tracks/artists that I've not listened to in ages which was (mostly) nice. I got bored after 10 though, and realised that I wanted to listen to the New Amsterdams and Britney Spears.
Might do another one of these soon as it's quite fun.


1.
One day I'll say it - Buck Brothers

2. Ladybug - The Terrible
Twos

3. Too Lost in you - Sugababes (from the album Three, kind of cheating, I know)

4. It's Four in the morning - Faron Young

5. One Four Five - The Cat Empire

6. Sixteen - No Doubt

7. Alpha Signal Seven - Reuben

8. 8 Mile - Eminem

9. Nineteen in Naples - Jonathan Richman

10. Ten Minutes - The Get up Kids
