I did an exercise like this before, “Compose a Meal“, but this time think Wardrobe. I’m going to be a little tougher and have some stricter rules.
Here they are:
- Pick out an outfit from song titles or lyrics.
- You must pick at least three different articles of clothing (we’ll assume you’re fully dressed with the rest)
- Lyrics like “Putting on the Ritz” don’t count.
- You CANNOT use the same song twice.
- Give song title and artist.
- Have Fun!
Bonus: Song Lyrics, what is the most powerful song lyric or line you’ve ever heard?
“If you wear that velvet dress”
“Get on your boots”
“Mexican Hat Dance”
BONUS: I know that the tide is turning ’round, so don’t let the bastards grind you down
Raspberry Beret (Prince)
Devil with a Blue Dress On (one of my favs, Mitch Ryder)
Blue Suede Shoes (Elvis)
BONUS: (I love these words)
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long.
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong.
Just remember, in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow,
Lies the seed, that with the sun’s love,
In the spring becomes the rose.
