Songs Meme

As far as Nip/Tuck goes... I like it. Ish. Mostly, I like it. Yeah, I like it. Yeah, no, I actually do. I was very afraid a couple times, but, yeah. Like it. Love it, even. And... you-know-who. I'm predictable.

And now, the songs meme! Gakked from [livejournal.com profile] stampinground and [livejournal.com profile] gambits_rogue: put your playlist on shuffle mode. Pick out a line from the first 20-25 songs. Have your friends guess the title and artist.

1. Your secret smile so quaint in memories foretold, laughing so viciously, your conscience has been sold.

2. You're jokin', you're jokin', I can't believe my ears, Would someone shut this fella up, I'm drownin' in my tears!

The Oogie-Boogie Song (The Nightmare Before Christmas), Danny Elfman... no clue who performs it. By [livejournal.com profile] jade_plume

3. And you feel like no-one before, you steal right under my door, I kneel 'cause I want you some more

U2, Original of the Species, by [livejournal.com profile] jade_plume

4. Jesse and I weren't looking so pretty, we hadn't been well in a while, ran out of cash and they ran out of pity

5. I followed the waves to you, I counted to see it through, but my heart lies to you, you'll never have me true

6. Well I'm moving through the shadows at night away from the staring eyes, any day they'll be looking for me 'cause I know I show the signs of...

7. Pourquoi faire, ce tas de plaisirs, de frissons, de caresses, de pauvres promesses...

8. Thanks to you I'm much obliged, such a pleasant stay, but now it's time for me to go, the autum moon lights my way

9. She left Ohio, bound for NYC, she broke her ties, she lost touch with me, that place wasn't big enough for a girl with her kind of dream

10. See the sun spread its wings of gold as the dawn unfurls, hear the song that the moon sings to the darkened world

11. I'm on a mission to abuse my position, abuse it with you

12. News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in, news guy wept and told us, earth was really dying, cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying

13. She appears composed, so she is, I suppose, who can really tell, she shows no emotion at all, stares into space like a dead china doll

Elliot Smith, Waltz #2, by [livejournal.com profile] shadesofbrixton

14. It's a tight squeeze vice grip ice and fire, she's a hot little treasure and the wave goes higher

15. Do you ever feel like you just landed on this earth? See the creatures all do their dances back and forth, you get restless and then you join them on the floor.

16. Her velvet shadow in the rain, disturb the stillness of the hour. Each crimson kiss a tender pain, like plucking petals from a flower.

17. Your mouth waters, stretched out on my bed, your fingers are trembling, and your heart is heavy and red, and your head is bent back, and your back is arched, my hand is under there, holding you up

18. For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise, for the life of me I cannot believe we'd ever die for these sins

The Verve Pipe, The Freshmen, by [livejournal.com profile] shadesofbrixton

19. I was lying in bed trying to catch my breath, half ashamed half smiling at the things we did, she made it clear from the start it was a one night stand, I was thinking of ways to make her change her plan

20. Many's the time I ran with you down the rainy roads of our old town, many the lives we lived in each day and buried altogether

Keane, Bedshaped, by [livejournal.com profile] jade_plume

21. Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday and whatever's in my eye should go away, but still the radio keeps playing all the usual and what's a Wonderwall anyway

22. You've made up your mind to go, I won't beg you to stay, you've been in a cage, throw you to the wind you fly away

Alison Krauss, It Doesn't Matter, by [livejournal.com profile] stampinground

23. Same old song, just a drop of water in the endless sea, all we do, crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see

Kansas, Dust In The Wind, by [livejournal.com profile] stampinground

24. People meditate and that's just great, trying to find the inner you, people depend on family and friends and other folks to pull them through, I don't know why I'm a one-man guy

Rufus Wainwright, One-Man Guy, by [livejournal.com profile] shadesofbrixton

25. Love and Hate, get it wrong, she cut me right back down to size, sleep the day, let it fade, who was there to take your place

Bush, This Cloud, by [livejournal.com profile] jade_plume

j'en aurais au moins deux !!

22 : Alison Krauss - Doesn't Matter What I Want

23 : Kansas/Scorpions (je préfère la version de Scorpions perso) - Dust in the Wind

[identity profile] fan-elune.livejournal.com 2006-01-11 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Tu sais, je crois que je n'ai jamais entendu la version de Scorpions. Mais je doute qu'elle détrône Kansas puisque, tu sais, Highlander.

Bref, yay!

13 - Eliot(t?) Smith, Waltz #2. Watch me be not at all surprised that you're a fan of him.

18 - Freshman, by... fuck, The Wallflowers, I think. I always confuse them with Third Eye Blind and The Verve Pipe.

19 - I know this song, and it will kill me when I figure out what it is.

24 - Awww. Rufus Wainwright, One Man Guy

13 - ...am I that predictable? It's all my brother's fault, anyway. I take what little interaction I can get with him, and clearly when it's not him hooking me on the best manga, it's him making me discover music I grow to love.

18 - It was the Verve Pipe, actually. Heh.

24 - Awww, yes. I couldn't believe it turned up, out of all my hundreds of songs.

(Yes, this is how I prepare for my classes. Shuddup.)

2 : the beginning sounds like the Oogie Boogie Song in Nightmare Before Christmas but the end... well, let's try it so ^^
3 : Original of the Species, U2
20 : I think it's Keane, Bedshaped...
And I know the 26 (Bush ?) but just don't remember which one !
(oh,, and about Dust in the wind ? I prefer the Scorpions one too :$)

2: it is! Heee. I was surprised nobody'd recognised it.
3 and 20, yeah! You're good at this.
25 - yep, it is Bush, I'll give you it. :)

(Okay, it really sounds like I oughta try Scorpions...)

Sure! *beams*

I outdid myself ! *g* There's not one I know. Yes, the Allison Krause one but I didn't even recognize it. :p

[identity profile] fan-elune.livejournal.com 2006-01-11 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh. Personally I can't believe nobody's recognised the French one.
