Watched two and a half Mel Brooks movies last night--I crashed in the middle of The Producers around "When You Got It, Flaunt It." And I slept like a baby, and lo, it was glorious. And now...I'm back in my comfy pink chair, needles in hand once again.

Also, I'm hungry. But first, as stolen borrowed from axtar...


Our Friends: The Soundtrack

In this post, I want you to upload the song you feel describes you the best. It can be any song you want. Any genre, any language - it doesn't even need to have words, if you don't want them! The trick is you have to tell me (and whoever else is reading) what it is about that song that you feel reflects who you are. In two days I'll put all the songs into a huge .zip file, along with the song I feel describes me the best, and we'll have our own friends-list soundtrack!


...what do you guys think is my song? I can't find/think of a good one for me! ;o;

PLAY ON! \o/

Unfortunately the song that always makes me think of you (and Lauren of course) cannot be uploaded or downloaded anywhere as far as I know...

*sings in dotted-line voice*
Mozzerella cheese! oh mozzerella cheese,
I cannot roll you with ease,
mozzerella cheese....


...I dont remember the rest

Fun idea! My song is Relient K's "More Than Useless":

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DCNR1E4O

This song represents where I am in life right now. I'm struggling to figure out what I should be doing, I'm not exactly content with it, and I keep worrying that I'm wasting time. But I also trust that it's not as bad as it seems and that God is pleased with me.

A sampling of the lyrics:

"I feel like, I would like
To be somewhere else doing something that matters
And I'll admit here, while I sit here
My mind wastes away and my doubts start to gather

What's the purpose? It feels worthless
So unwanted like I've lost all my value
I can't find it, not in the least bit
and I'm just scared, so scared that I'll fail you

And sometimes I think that I'm not any good at all
And sometimes I wonder why, why I'm even here at all
But then you assure me

I'm a little more than useless
And when I think that I can't do this
You promise me that I'll get through this
And do something right
Do something right for once."

The irony is that the guitar intro sounds like a Detective Conan opening!

A song for you? Maybe something from a musical or a singer like Josh Groban (a.k.a. Joshie-poo!) would work. How about "Don't Give Up (You Are Loved)"?

Watch Me Shine

A girl power song, but hey. It's me.

[aishuu.livejournal.com]

As to why, well...

Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won't stop
Till I'm on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what's mine

Might describe my rather determined attitude and somewhat ruthless ambition. ^_~

25 or 6 to 4

It has a marching band-ish sound to me |D Also. All about trying to find inspiration during the early hours of the morning.

Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4

Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more
25 or 6 to 4

Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4


I actually was going to choose Styx's Come Sail Away or Sum 41's Fat Lip but meh. Chicago's more my kind of song, really. It's classic and musical and ahahaha about finding inspiration and failing and yet not--BECAUSE HE WAS INSPIRED TO WRITE A SONG ABOUT FINDING INSPIRATION :DDDD!

I fail at using megaupload! Bwahaha.

Nakushita Kotoba

"Nakushita Kotoba" (Lost Words) by No Regret Life (made famous as an ending theme for the Naruto series).

I'm holding a drop of time in my hands
I quietly grip the forgotten memories, the lost words

When I recalled each event one by one, I thought I understood everything
But the faded words were right by my side

Nights when I can't find an answer, and a single drop of warmth, and my longing for something far away
I'm spending my whole life just repeating those things over and over

I'm holding drops of time in my hands
I quietly grip the forgotten memories, the lost words

I want to grab all the things you love in my hand, never letting them cool down
While we, as people, are unable to share that feeling

The meaning your words release, an unquestionable love, a feeling that has no answers
If only we could convey all that just by looking at each other

I'm holding drops of time in my hands
I quietly grip the forgotten memories, the lost words

I'll keep this love in my heart.

I've lost you...

Why did I choose such a bittersweet song? Because right now, I realized that I want to hold onto every memory I can. Haha, I sound so old!

Hmmm...I can't think of a song for myself. I'll have to better delve into my music library. Hmmm...

I'll try to think of one for you too.

I'm such a musical Geek. With that I'll have to say "Luck be a Lady" from Guys and Dolls.

They call you Lady Luck.
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very unladylike way of running out
You're this a date with me
The pickings have been lush
And yet before this evening is over you might give me the brush
You might forget your manners
You might refure to stay and So the best that I can to is pray.

Luck be a lady tonight
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight.

Luck let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be
I've seen the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me.

A lady doesn't leave her escort
It isn't fair, it isn't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice.
So let's keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady
Luck be a lady tonight.

Luck be a lady tonight.
Luck be a lady tonight.
Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight.

Luck let a gentleman see

Luck let a gentleman see

How nice a dame you can be

How nice a dame you can be

I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with

Luck me a lady, a lady, be a lady with me.

Luck be a lady with me

A Lady wouldn't flirt with strangers
She'd have a heart, she'd have a soul
A lady wouldn't make little snake eyes at me
When I've got my life on this roll.

Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em, snake eyes
Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em!

So let's keep the party polite

Let's keep the party polite

Never get out of my sight

CRAPSHOTERS

Never get out of my sight.
Stick here, baby, stick here, baby.

Stick with me, baby, I'm the fellow you came in with
Luck be a lady

Luck be a lady

Luck be a lady tonight.

Coming out, coming out, coming out
Right!
