Tax jams
April 14th, 2009 by Lorna Bracewell in Lorna Bracewell
It is currently 4:39 p.m. on Tuesday, April 14 and my freakin’ federal income tax forms have yet to be finalized and postmarked. (Believe it or not, folksingers occasionally earn enough income to warrant filing their income taxes!) This, obviously, is a source of immense anxiety. In an attempt to soothe my nerves (and in the true spirit of tax procrastination), I’ve decided to take a break from my number crunching to post a playlist that is sure to chill me and all of you other tax slackers out. Trust me, this is better than Xanax. Enjoy!
Nice and Slow, Usher
Money Made You Mean, Indigo Girls
2 Cool 2 Be 4-Gotten, Lucinda Williams
Mercy Now, Mary Gauthier
Pulse, Ani DiFranco
Keep Ya Head Up, 2Pac
You Can’t Always Get What You Want, The Rolling Stones
Beautiful, Dirty, Rich, Lady Gaga
Ride Wit Me, Nelly featuring City Spud
Oh My God, Whatever, Etc., Ryan Adams

Excellent! I too am notorious for postmarking mine on the 15th. I look at it as a right of passage every year. By the way, you lost me at Usher :) How about “I need some money”, by John Lee Hooker.
*skubz sings off into the sunset* “The best things in life are free, but you can give it to the birds and bees. I need some money…..”
