I saw this meme posted by [personal profile] amadi and [personal profile] torachan, among others, and the national differences are really fascinating, so I thought I'd post too.

Happy International Women's Day to the 51% (and to the 49%, too, and everyone in between). When each of these songs is guessed, I will upload it.

Eight feminist (YMMV!) songs by women for the eighth!

1. Sheela-Na-Gig by PJ Harvey, guessed by [personal profile] lizbee (this track is from an old and fragile CD and is quite soft - turn it up and rock out!)
He said, "Please take your dirty pillows away from me."

2. Powerless (Say What You Want) by Nelly Furtado, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] baggy7
They took her passion and her gaze and made a poster.

3. Deep Red Bells by Neko Case, guessed by [personal profile] musesfool and [livejournal.com profile] newredshoes
Who took the time to fold your clothes
Who shook the Valley of the Shadow

4. oh, if you had a dollar, you would hide yourself away,
but in your silence find some sense that there is no one else to blame

5. Sick and Tired, by Anastacia, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] baggy7
But I'm sad for all the time I had to waste
'Cause I learned the truth

6. Divorcee by 23, by Clare Bowditch, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] looleebelle
Well is that your best reason to stay?
Think about what your baby girl might one day say.

7. The Fear by Lily Allen, guessed by [personal profile] nixwilliams
But it doesn’t matter cause I’m packing plastic
and that’s what makes my life so fucking fantastic

8. 10 Dollar by M.I.A., guessed by [livejournal.com profile] newredshoes and [livejournal.com profile] baggy7
Dial-a-bride from Sri Lanka
Found herself a Yorkshire banker

And three feminist (YMMV!) songs by men, for March

9. Your Woman by White Town, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] lonelywalker
So much for all your highbrow Marxist ways

10. Polyester Girl by Regurgitator, guessed by [livejournal.com profile] eirenn
All I want you to say is nothing at all
And all I want you to do is stare at the wall

11. Pussy Town by Machine Gun Fellatio (m4a file), guessed by [personal profile] nixwilliams (a band officially banned from performing at several Victorian universities for exploiting women...but this is very much a woman-loving song!)
So put on my moan and take off your clothes
Slide down slow beneath your belly I go

The Rules:
First, write down the names of 12 characters. Then read and answer the questions.

2. Neville Longbottom
3. Irina Derevko

5. Henry McCoy
6. Remus Lupin
7. Foggy Nelson
8. Sun (from Lost)
9. Hermione Granger
10. Magnus
11. Tara (from Buffy)
12. Walt (from Lost)
(honestly, I should have looked at the title: "Pairing Meme". Then I wouldn't have put so many kids in. Darn kids. Just assume they're adults for these purposes.)
