What's the most embarrassing thing ...

As I confessed in my Tuesday column, I'm a clumsy hooker.

But I'm also nosy, as I want to hear about YOUR most embarrassing ...

Is it really vandalism when it's a sticker with the words "nipple clamps"?

Aside from enjoying humorous ones spied on others' automobiles, I'm not a fan of bumper stickers.

I blame my father, ...

Where is the oddest place you've ever taken cover during bad weather?

During last week's bad weather, when a tornado siren sounded around midnight, I was caught at a midtown QuikTrip.

Ellie Goulding


Much as I loved The Shirelles' version of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," a song penned by the fabulous Carole King and Gerry Goffin, I've always been partial to Laura Branigan's cover from her album "Self Control."

I had a crush on the late-great Branigan in second grade because of "Gloria," which was kinda like my anthem back then. But where "Gloria" was a power-pop song, her melancholy version of "Will You Still Love Me" struck a chord with me more than any other version of the song, which has been covered by dozens of artists.

However, a close second comes via teen Leslie Grace, whose "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," featuring half English-half Spanish lyrics, can be heard in a cute little black-and-white video ...



I'm also digging Taylor Swift's new single, "I Knew You Were Trouble" -- but not quite as much as I like the catchiness of "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." Still, the debut song -- which came in at No. 3 on Billboard's Hot 100, thank you very much -- is kinda growing on me ...



My favorite song of the week, though, might be Ellie Goulding's new single, "Anything Could Happen." She kinda reminds me of a cross between Bjork and Lady Gaga on sedatives ...



So what is YOUR favorite song of the week?

Peace, love and sedatives ... XOXO
