Tomorrow is my birthday, 35 years old!
When your name's Ansley, there aren't any songs with your name in them. So here are some songs I like to pretend are about me.
Bootylicious (mp3) - Destiny's Child
Big Brown Eyes (mp3) - Old 97s
Brass in Pocket (mp3) - The Pretenders
Sweet Child O' Mine (mp3) - Guns n Roses
Around the Way Girl (mp3) - LL Cool J
You're All I Need to Get By (mp3) - Marvin Gaye
The Girl from Ipanema (mp3) - Stan Getz & João Gilberto
And one that feels more applicable than I wish
I Remember Being Young (mp3) - Bikini

Happy Birthday!
happy birthday!
Sometimes having songs written about you is no fun. Randy Newman's song "Marie" is a drunk husband apologizing to his wife, Marie, for ruining her life. Dylan's "Absolutely Sweet Marie" is thick with bitter irony toward a decidedly unsweet Marie. I like "Maria" from West Side Story, but Maria isn't really my name. Oh well.
Can I share Bootylicious with you, even though my booty is lacking?
Happy late Birthday Ansley! I totally love your song choices. Especially Around the Way Girl (cuz just thinking about LL makes me blush). Luvs from Austin!
