Praise or don't praise whatever god or gods you do or do not actively or passively worship -- my Internet connection should, from here on in, work as well as technologically possible it's ever going to. Wireless network is up, and except for a painful and somewhat tedious process of having to "acquire a network address" whenever I start up my computer, it seems to be working fine. Oh thank goodness. I'm supposed to be researching some crap for class right now and I did find some sites earlier, but I haven't been able to do as much as I'd have liked to. Gah.
So anyway. In celebration, why don't I post the first of the Song Lyric memes?
Instructions: - Open your playlist and set it to random - Select your favourite line from each of the first 20 songs that play and post them - Others guess what song the line is from
Now, keep in mind that (a) For some songs, the lines aren't necessarily my favorites, but there weren't that many lines to choose from that didn't include the name of the song in them, and (b) I apologize if a few of these are slightly more obscure than others.
Okay. So here it is. (Note that some people might post comments on LJ rather than here.)
It's kinda hard with all that sexual confusion / Sometimes you don't know if you're gay or straight / But what's the difference, it's a wonderful illusion / Most times you won't make it past second base
Jeremy Fisher, "High School". Thanks, Gonzo!
Not because I'm tough like Dirty Harry / Make her laugh just like Jim Carrey / I'm like the Cable Guy
Blessid Union of Souls, "Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me For Me)". Thanks, Suz! You clearly listen to too much of the same music as I do... ;)
Everybody wants to live like they wanna live and / Everybody wants to love like they wanna love
BoDeans, "Closer to Free". Clearly none of you guys watched Party of Five enough, back in the '90s. Heh.
As the world implodes we fall into it
Our Lady Peace, "Thief". Thanks, Suz!
Ancestors, hear my plea / Help me not to make a fool of me
Mulan soundtrack, "Honor To Us All". Thanks, Suz!
Word has it on the wire / That you don't know who you are / Well, if you could jack into my brain / You'd know exactly what you mean here
Poe, "Hello".
Tarzan was king of the jungle and Lord over all the apes / But he could hardly string together four words: 'I Tarzan, You Jane.'
Crash Test Dummies, "Superman's Song". Thanks, Suz!
I'd like to know where the riverboat sails tonight / To New Orleans, well, that's just fine, alright
Elton John, "My Father's Gun".
Can't sing but I've got soul
U2, "Elevation". Good job, Suz. :)
It feels like I'm starting all over again / The last three years were just pretend
Michelle Branch, "Goodbye To You". Thanks, Suz!
I never meant to be the needle that broke your back
Cat Power, "He War". Thanks, Gonzo!
Hustlers grab your guns / Your shadow weighs a ton / Driving down the 101
Phantom Planet, "California". Thanks, Suz!
I even fell for that stupid love song
Kelly Clarkson, "Since U Been Gone". Thanks, Jess!
Make me laugh / Say you know what you want / You said we were the real thing / So I show you some more and I learn / What black magic can do
Tori Amos, "Jackie's Strength". Thanks, Suz!
The tease, the way you lie / The stumble in your mind / The fear, the hope inside / They hit here
Our Lady Peace, "Whatever".
Do you always say 'I love you' / Well, do you know what that means / Or are they just three words to get you what you what you need
Fisher, "Easy For You".
The smell of cold / Car seat is freezing / The world is sleeping and / I am numb
Ben Folds Five, "Brick". Thanks, Suz!
I could be a caped crusader or space invader / And you wouldn't know the difference / Or would you?
Savage Garden, "Santa Monica". Thanks, Susan, for finally letting me cross this one off. :)
You're cold inside / You're not the one I hoped for / I'll see you on the other side
Keane, "Untitled 1".
I remember standing by the wall / The guns, they shot above our heads / And we kissed as though nothing could fall
The Wallflowers, "Heroes". Thanks, Jess!
So there you go. Knock yourselves out, if you would be so inclined. :D
