I often give my kids the "You like that??" My oldest son, the one closest to developing a musical taste, and currently the one with the most musical talent is a fan of Muse and Lady Gaga. He actually gets Gaga, as his mother and I get, and to a less extent enjoy Gaga. He has realized that publicly being a Gaga fan in 7th grade will pigeonhole him by his peers, and he doesn't give a crap, which is all his mother, myself or his monster mother, could hope for. The middle child listens to everything, loves the David Byrne/Brian Eno album "My life in the bush of ghosts" and regularly makes fun/his own lyrics to most pop music. The little girl is all Frozen all the time right now, but has been known to belt out some Katy Perry, and occasionally some Bob Marley. They all hate country, and I love them for it.

Yeah I guess landslide is more of an afterglow/cuddling song. To me, it conveys a sense of submission and acceptance to/of something much larger than oneself. Call me a romantic but the idea of the landslide in the song was always a metaphor for for falling in love, something you couldn't fight even if you wanted to. Your lists are great, but really anything by Depeche Mode, The Talking Heads, or Duran Duran is great music for coitus.

It would be really nice if the person toying with the camera in the first video knew jack crap about cameras.

In my family we call those no bake cookies "Missouri Cookies" and they have sparked all out wrestling matches between uncles and nephews at Thanksgiving.

Twidroid for my g1 I tweet everywhere, pics, video whatever. It all comes through in one stream, so I usually see @s and DMs (though I don't get many)

UHHHH I like twitterfox and Twidroid about equally they both have their quirks.
