Geek Music

In addition to being tech geeks, most of us in ZingIT are music geeks as well. JoeG’s got his growing record collection (pretty sweet I’ve been told), Craig’s in on all the indie bands and obscure artists, Elph’s a patron of the Ann Arbor Folk Festival, Brian’s got Sirius in his car. Then there’s me. My music collection consists primarily of six CDs from college and a handful of Starbucks Pick of the Week downloads.

But I do have a secret playlist that I like to play for a quick pick-me-up. I go nuts for catchy tunes with witty funny geeky lyrics. First of all, there’s the uber-talented and prolific Jonathan Coulton who brought us the adorable Code Monkey and my personal favorite anthem of the moment re: Your Brains (somehow I feel Elph will enjoy this one too because he’s that kind of guy).

Then recently, I came across this bit of girl-lovin’ nerdcore. Yeah, I’m a Coder Girl!

But this is the song that plays in my head at random times of the day.

I can’t help it. I’m a geek and a nerd. Rock on, geeks of music!
