November is winter shopping season; this week's Monday Music Moves Me prompt is songs about shopping. Well, there's "My Favorite Things," but it's not really about shopping.
And there's "The Bargain Store," but it's not really about shopping, either. (Actually, when it was new, there was some controversy about exactly what it was about. Google indicates that the video's been pulled down a few times.)
So I turned to Google. Lots of new songs are about shopping. How many can I listen to before it's time for this post to go live? Squeezing them in between what comes up on my own to-listen-to list? Any music links I listen to on Sunday that don't relate to shopping will be in the regular midday link log. Here's Macklemore. (Warning: foul language.)
Usher. (More foul language.)
Fergie. (I'm not taking time to check the lyrics. For all I know, all these new releases may contain foul language. You can sing things on YouTube that you could never have sung on the radio, and apparently that's a primary source of inspiration for new songs.)
50 Cent.
Ariana Grande.
Fabolous.
Shania Twain.
De La Soul.
Madonna.
Patti LaBelle.
Bruce Springsteen.
Nicki Minaj.
Patti Page. (Her style doesn't appeal to me as much as it did when I was three years old, but at least this song contains no bad language.)
Wiz Khalifa.
