pelicans go to the kitchen!
Oct. 24th, 2007 11:41 pmThe meme of picking 20 songs on random with the help of your media player of choice and letting others guess from the lyrics! was mentioned on the friendslist, and I've always thought that a good enough reason to do it. Again. Every time. (And you too! You do it too! Do it, too.) I couldn't catch sleep yet, so here, here, iTunes will have it so:
1. now talking to god is laurel begging hardy for a gun - josh ritter, girl in the war; guessed by
callmesandy
2. turns out i was a vampire myself - tony lucca, devil town; by
callmesandy and
walkingshadow
3. he's got a woman at home he's got another woman down the hall / he seems to want me anyway
4. and a sun that doesn't set but settles
5. oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung
6. is it a dream? is it a lie? i think i'll let you decide
7. this is a song about anyone, it could be anyone - lily allen, knock 'em out; by
walkingshadow and
adventurat
8. you're my desire / the woman i require / i just changed my tire
9. she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down
10. just something i knew i had to do / but through it all i kept my eyes on you
11. a much up-dated ruin from a much out-dated style
12. sick and tired of trying to save the world / i just wanna spend my time with you, girl
13. if fashion is your trade, then when you're naked i guess you must be unemployed
14. you know, i feel so dirty when they start talking cute - rick springfield, jesse's girl; by
callmesandy and
walkingshadow and
adventurat
15. someone controlled you / they bought and sold you - the beatles, while my guitar gently weeps; by
adventurat
16. is history recorded? does someone have a tape?
17. oh how your bubble's gonna burst when you meet another nurse (she'll be driving in a hearse) - april march, chick habit; by
walkingshadow
18. i'm not dumb but i can't understand why she walks like a woman and talks like a man - the raincoats, lola; by just about everybody, except for the bit that it wasn't the kinks version, which was arguably unguessable
19. drop to my knees to elicit crowd response - da vinci's notebook, title of the song; by
mumblemutter
20. the t-shirt says shoot pool, not people / kill time, not life
PS. Why does one these songs come up every time I do this?
PS2. As usual, cheated in randomizing by skipping: songs with no lyrics; songs with lyrics in languages other than English; songs by Lush the lyrics to which I couldn't understand even after much much concentrated listening.
