Reply, and I will give you a letter. Find five songs that start with that letter, and then post them in your own journal.
Ally gave me the letter F, so I got to look for F-words:
1) "Fuck You Aurora" by Alkaline Trio - I just couldn't pass this one up. Come on, I'm looking for F-words. Plus, it'll make a great theme song if I ever get fired from/quit my job at Aurora Microsystems.
2) "Fear Of Dying" by Jack Off Jill - F-ing awesome song. Probably my favourite of theirs.
3) "Follow You Down" by Gin Blossoms - Let's face it, 90s rock is just awesome. And everyone knows this song. If you don't, download it and listen to it. Or ask me to send it to you (if you can't download). I'll be happy to oblige.
4) "Faggot" by Mindless Self Indulgence - Too many people would kill me if I left this one out - primarily Kitty. Not that I'd want to of course. Another prime F-word.
5) "Frozen" by Tegan and Sara - Love this song. Love that whole album actually... but this is definitely in my top 5 of their songs. I sincerely thank Sarah for making me sit down and listen to all three of their albums. In a row.
And just because I'm a music fanatic, and I was only able to choose five, I want to mention those that didn't make the list.
Other praiseworthy F-songs: AC/DC - For Those About To Rock (We Salute You), Alkaline Trio - Fall Victim, Alkaline Trio - Fatally Yours, Barenaked Ladies - Falling For The First Time, blink-182 - Feeling This, Brand New - Failure By Design, Evanescence - Farther Away (Live), Flyleaf - Fully Alive, Great Big Sea - Feel It Turn, Linkin Park - Faint, Pennywise - Fight It, Sarah McLachlan - Fear, The Weekend - Flipside, Unloco - Face Down |

Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
1. "Our last day of summer, 1979..."
2. "Hold onto me love, you know I can't stay long"
3. "God bless the daylight, the sugary smell of springtime"
4. "From the minute that I saw her she was different from the rest, but I didn't hear her talking, I was staring at her chest"
5. "Do as I say, not as I do, because the shit's so deep, you can't run away"
6. "Always assuming the worst, but you're going on nonetheless"
7. "Hey, come this May, we'll be running in the sun again" (solved by Biff in person)
8. "When she walks she swings her arms instead of her hips"
9. "I'm everything you know, you wonder friend or foe, I'm the burning in your throat when you swallow"
10. "When you're on a holiday, you can't find the words to say..."
11. "I'm just another little faggot with a problem, fuckin' around over someone else's hard-on"
12. "Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete"
13. "Hey! Do you believe there's anything beyond troll-guy reality?"
14. "What just happened, did you kiss me?"
15. "Every time I look at you, the world just melts away"
16. "We used to leave the blue lights on, and there was a beat"
17. "Drink down the gin and kerosene"
18. "Another dream that will never come true, just to compliment your sorrow"
19. "Maybe when the room is empty, maybe when the bottle's full"
20. "Ayer conoci, un cielo sin sol, y un hombre sin suelo"
I will be very interested to see who gets each song. Enjoy. |

List ten musical artists that you like, and then go answer the questions.
1) Green Day
2) Barenaked Ladies
3) Yellowcard
4) Too Far North
5) Alkaline Trio
6) Great Big Sea
7) Jack Off Jill
8) Tegan and Sara
9) Fall Out Boy
10) The Weekend
What was the first song you ever heard by 6?
Hard to remember, as it was a long time ago... Probably "When I'm Up (I Can't Get Down)" or "It's the End of the World as We Know It"
What is your favourite album of 8?
This Business of Art
What is your favourite lyric that 5 has sung?
There are tons, but this is definitely one of them. Makes for a really great breakup song.
You have every right to be
This appalled with me
Join the club
I signed up a long time ago and I know how you feel
And when you decked me
You left me knocked out on the floor
I came to bloodied up, but you weren't around
I picked my teeth off the ground like they'd been there before
How many times have you seen 4 live?
Oh wow... Every chance I got.
What's your favourite song of 7?
Tough choice. Probably "Underjoyed".
What is a good memory you have concerning the music of 10?
"Into the Morning" will always remind me of the nights and days following my return from Europe.
Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad?
Several, especially during the week at the farmhouse. But there's one that always reminds me of September 2004: Empty Apartment. Sorry Biff.
What is your favourite lyric that 2 has sung?
I'm a few bricks short of a load,
but a full load always hurt my back
I thought that Alcohol was just for those with
nothing else to do
I thought that drinking just to get drunk
was a waste of precious booze
But now I know that there's a time
and there's a place where I can choose
To walk the fine line between
self-control and self-abuse
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
You gotta kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight
What is your favourite song by 9?
"Grand Theft Autumn (Where Is Your Boy)"
How did you get into 5?
I'm not sure if Alex or Jesse told me about them first, but between the two of them, it was inevitable.
What's your favourite song by 4?
"Pass Me By"
How many times have you seen 9 live?
None, unfortunately.
What is a good memory you have concerning 2?
Singing along to "Crazy" and "Grade 9" (among others) in Jocelyn's car on our first date.
Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad?
On the contrary. Tegan and Sara music always seems to make me happy.
What is your favourite song of 1?
Also a tough choice. Either "Minority", "Misery", or "St. Jimmy". |

So let's find a bar
So dark we forget who we are
Where all the scars from the
Nevers and maybes die
Let's go out tonight
I have to go out tonight
You're sweet wanna hit the street?
Wanna wail at the moon like a cat in heat?
Just take me out tonight
Awesome birthday. I've gotta thank Ry, Jesse and Adric for taking me out. Apparently my name is now Lev. We had a blast. And I'm barely paying for it today, hehe. Also, it was great to have Jocelyn for dinner and to see Alex perform with the Hart House Orchestra. Thanks to everyone for their birthday wishes. This was one hell of a way to kick off reading week. |

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there
Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train
Everything is cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there
Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same |

"Love Is A Place"
There's spring in the air
They're sweeping the streets
Wind is a breeze
The sun becomes her, he agrees
What's holding up her face?
Nothing but blue skies
Passage ways to windows
That don't close
Where do you live?
Love is a place
Where are you from?
She says "Ask yourself, ask anyone"
What's holding up her face?
Nothing but blue skies

Stolen from Toma and Gigs:
1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Went outside the country (Boston), travelled to Europe, met an online friend from halfway around the world, started university, went on a couple road trips with friends, and a couple things you probably don't want to hear about.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
Not so much injury, but I did nearly die from an illness.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
I don't buy much... I'll say the souvenirs I brought back from Europe.

Okay, while I hate to be one of those people who posts nothing but quizzes, this one's just too amusing to pass up.
As it turns out, Marie really goes nuts when she drinks... Somehow not surprising. And I'm supposedly a demented Fundementalist Christian. That couldn't be more wrong - well, okay, maybe I'm a little demented. Still, the fact that both Adric and I refuse to drink is absolutely hilarious. Also rather odd is the lovers pairing. I'll let you make your own jokes about that one.

It's one of those nights... One where I'm stressing out over schoolwork and wondering why I'm even in university.
While I do have the skills and potential to be a good student, I just can't stand being in these classes and doing this work. I'm sick of school. It's no different than Lockerby, really - I'm just taking my classes in a different building, and it's easier to skip classes and not do the work. The only reason I'm even there is because I've been conditioned to believe that the only way I'll have a successful future is with a university degree. If I knew for a moment that weren't true... I'd jump at the chance to start making a career for myself here and now. Unfortunately, I understand the importance of a degree in this society - which just serves to frustrate me more, because I can't hack it as a university student.
I want a reason to try, motivation to work harder, a goal to work towards... But all I can think of is some tedious job I'll probably grow to hate. Not much motivation these days. So I try to think of something, anything I won't hate... But I have nothing I really want to do. No drive, no goals... Yeah, I always say I'd like a job in finance, but only because it's the only thing I seem to be even the slightest bit good at (which I'm starting to doubt now that I'm in university), and the only thing I have any experience with. There's no passion there, how could anyone be passionate about accounting? And while I try to find something I do like, I realize that I will have to work hard at it, no matter what it is. But as many of you know, I hate hard work of any sort, and I honestly can't think of a single thing that I actually enjoy, that could orient my career. And while I realize that a job isn't everything, it's not your whole life... The reality of it is that today, if you don't have a good job, you can't afford to lead a decent life.
I would love to hear something that would motivate me, that would tell me I belong in University... But I've been waiting for a while now. It all boils down to me thinking of myself as a lazy, unmotivated, helpless lowlife with no goals or direction for my future, leaving me miserable and frustrated with myself. Even if I do consider the route of leaving university, where do I go from there? I still have no direction and no goals. A lot of people my age have something like music or drama or art that they are truly passionate about. And I used to laugh at them, thinking they would gain nothing from following that path, in terms of a career. But I envy those people. They have something that they enjoy, something they're passionate about, even if it won't necessarily lead to a sucessful career... I don't even have that.
It never mattered before, you know? I used to lead my life like anyone else, not worrying about my future. I was going to go to school, and get a good job, just like my mom. Then I would settle down with someone and start a family. The latter part still sounds great. It's the former I'm having trouble with lately. I've just started to wake up to that, and consider my future. And I've got nothing.
...and here I am writing a long-winded journal post instead of studying for an exam I have tomorrow. And you wonder why I don't think I belong in university. |

Set your media player of choice on shuffle, then ask these questions. Post the song titles as your answers. Your own comments in italics, if you'd like.
01. What do you think of me, Winamp?
Spin Doctors - Little Miss Can't Be Wrong
So I can be a little stubborn... Rather juvenile to call me "Miss" isn't it?
02. Will I have a happy life?
SR-71 - They All Fall Down
I'll take that as a no...
03. What do my friends really think of me?
Green Day - Give Me Novacaine
Life is naught but pain! Seriously guys, I'm okay...
04. Do people secretly lust after me?
Rise Against - To the Core
Nice...

Becoming royalty would probably work.
06. What should I do with my life?
Guess Who - American Woman
I should do an American Woman? *laughs to self about where Marie was born*
07. Why must life be so full of pain?
Rise Against - Heaven Knows
Way to avoid giving a real answer!
08. How can I maximize my pleasure during sex?
Metric - Torture Me
Wow, even Winamp knows I'm a sub...
09. Will I die happy?
AC-DC - Highway To Hell
So... Happy but full of sin?
10. Can you give me some advice?
Dashboard Confessional - Carve Your Heart
That just sounds painful.
11. What do you think happiness is?
Sarah McLachlan - Into The Fire
Pyromania is Love.
12. What's my favorite fetish?
Fall Out Boy - Where Is Your Boy Tonight?
Threesome anyone?
13. How will I be remembered?
The Ataris - Eight of Nine
One of many huh? I can deal with that. |

Thoughts are the shadows of feelings, always darker, emptier, and simpler.
I don't care if they're fake or real.
I just thank them for showing up at all.
I have black periods.
Who does not?
But they do not have me, they are not a part of illness, but a part of my being.
What am I saying?
I have the courage to have them.
Four o' clock in the morning.
This sucks. |

Interesting quiz. Yeah, I know I never post anything. If you really cared, you'd have mentioned it by now. I prefer to communicate more personally anyway. Interesting quiz though.

Just checking in, I've been having a blast Europe, and wanted to post these lyrics to a Third Eye Blind song that I love but had forgotten about. I really miss everyone back home. It really hit me today how long it's been since I've seen any of you guys, and how much longer it will be. But I'm having fun nonetheless.

Motorcycle Drive By
Summer time and the wind is blowing outside
In lower chelsea and I don’t know
What I’m doing in this city
The sun is always in my eyes
It crashes through the windows
And I’m sleeping on the couch
When I came to visit you
That’s when I knew
I could never have you
I knew that before you did
Still I’m the one who’s stupid
And there’s this burning
Like there’s always been
I never been so alone
And I’ve
Never been so alive
Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by
The cigarette ash flies in your eyes
And you don’t mind, you smile
And say the world doesn’t fit with you
I don’t believe you, you’re so serene
Careening through the universe
Your axis on a tilt, you’re guiltless and free
I hope you take a piece of me with you
And there’s things I’d like to do
That you don’t believe in
I would like to build something
But you'll never see it happen
And there’s this burning
Like there’s always been
I’ve ne ver been so alone
And I’ve, I’ve never been so alive
And there’s this burning
There is this burning
Where’s the soul I want to know
New York City's evil
The surface is everything but I could never do that
Someone would see through that
And this is the last time
We’ll be friends again
I’ll get over you, you’ll wonder who I am
And there’s this burning
Just like there’s always been
I’ve never been so alone, alone
And I’ve, and I’ve
I've never been so alive
So alive
I go home to the coast
It starts to rain, I paddle out on the water
Alone
Taste the salt and taste the pain
I’m not thinking of you again
Summer dies and swells rise
The sun goes down in my eyes
See this rolling wave
Darkly coming to take me
Home
And I’ve never been so alone
And I’ve never been so alive |
