Songs of my Friends
15 years ago
So, as I was driving and listening to an MP3 disc I made of various Alternative & Punk songs, I began contemplating FA, and then friends and who's responses I was thinking I'd get when I got back home, and suddenly I thought of doing that thing I did before.
Putting a song to each of my pals. What song reminds me of you and why. ^_^
So, who's wants to know? Just comment. :3
1. You (or a particular character or yours)
2. The song (and hopefully a link)
3. Why?
PS: Don't pay attention to the music videos attached, I just look for sound quality.

FA+

So, for what song would fit me, then :P, just based on what little bit you have talked with me?
2. "Satch Boogie" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzQb79IhoRE
3. I can't really recall alot too much that we've done together, so I'm afraid you were the first "cop out" that I kinda did and went with the first song that came to mind. Of coarse its an instrumental, so I don't really have lyrics to fuel why or anything other than your ID. I listen to this song, and I think I could see you pulling it off in Joe's place if you can play guitar. ;P
If I could, I would pull off something from Dragonforce if I was skilled with a guitar ;). But alas, the only thing I've ever played was Guitar hero.
He's the guitarist, I'm the drummer. Now on Rockband its the exact opposite. He plays drums and I'm the guitarist/singer. XD
Sing = Hard - Expert
Guitar/Bass = Expert
Drums = Hard
Keyboard = Medium
2. "Who's Watching Me" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YvAYIJSSZY
3. Its those glasses! XD I can just imagine your little mousie being the next Iggy, looking over the fence or what-have-you with those glasses peeking over and watching us all. XD
I can see that lol
2. Stryper - "Wait For You" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxRAzgFosq8
3. This was more one of those "Due to the lyrics" cases, cause as much as I've known you and been a pal for years, we do always seem to be standing on opposite sides of the iceberg. Regardless of those differences or conflicts of opinion/interest, the friendship stands. :3
2. I can't believe they had a link! Ether seeds "Undone" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFye8vXjr9Q
3. The energy that fuels this song is quite intense. You're always talking about Chaos, murder, mayhem, sex & violence. Well as I see it, what better way describes all that than saying "I'm going to do whatever it takes to make you come undone?"
She still loves you though.
Just not your fucking music D:
<3
Anything in particular to the song or . . ?
It's not even metalcore
Nil needs to wash her fingers after typing 'metalcore'
agrha, she did it again D:
Well, I'll be sure to try and find something heavier for you that reminds me of you, but these are not meant to be "this song best describes my character" songs, but ones that remind me of my friends. :P
2. As much as I wanted to pick something from 5th Element, this isn't a "what movie do you remind me of," meme. ^^; Don't know if you know them, but Them Crooked Vultures "Interlude w/ Ludes" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBp1RsFbBUE
3. It has this mysterious atmosphere about it that makes me think back to your character and your art in general. Very interesting, out there, and always this tinge of mystery about it and you that seems like we're only glimpsing the mask of the true personality behind the icon.
2. Three Days Grace again with "Riot" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC_Z-EPSVaI
3. As much as you're a big cuddly dragon who just likes to have a good time, you occasionally let out the real outrage of the world you keep pent up. And one of these days I see that big blue dragon finally saying "enough" and doing whatever it takes to make that change. Maybe even if you have to "start a riot."
I love you. You're so damn goofy, while still being right, that this comment right here made my whole day. :3
One of these days... yeah. I'ma have to reach out and Pimp-slap this entire stupid world, one way or another. Lord, keep my pimp hand strong until that day.
2. Oh the temptation of what to grab. Though, I think the best to describe your "dilema" is Living Color's "Glamor Boys" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9PBaSH9G5Q
3. Cause how many times have people roped poor Jet into the "Glamor Boy" lifestyle, eh? How many times have you had to defend your sexuality? XD So, here's the singer's struggle to prove that "I ain't no glamor boy."
However, I may be redoing some folks who are not satisfied with their chosen songs, as I didn't have access to all my music.
Though these are not descriptive tunes, but songs that remind me of people and their characters. :P
2. Cosmic Castaway - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKlMOblghiQ
3. Poor little thing, that this lovely little dragon has had to put up with. Just picturing what may have gone through your mind and I come to this song. Its a back and forth struggle of self worth and escaping to one's dreams for comfort.
"But I'm not broken, in my dream I win
And I take over, coz I'm no loser
And I'm in and you're not, bad dreams don't stop
But I'm all screwed up, a Cosmic Castaway..."
*squeeze*
2. As you love to seem to do it to those of lesser intellects or morale standings, you just seem to thrill to "Put Holes in Happiness." ;P
3. It feels right to me, for a few reasons. 1, you could easily animate your icon to spin with that playing in the background and hypnotize people. XD 2. I could totally see this being the "end boss" theme for Elegy. 3. Though few see it, I know there are parts of your "harsh" truth comments to people that are both humor and truth. You upset the balance for many, or in other words "Put holes in happiness" other peoples ignorant happiness. ;P
2. Green Day's "Basket Case" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTwJo0HeNmU
3. Well, its uplifting to me due to its fast beat, and you do seem to love to play multiple roles in your comments or journals, so its like there's a hint of schizophrenia in there, but the good kind. ^_^ So here's to you my friendly basket case. XD
2. Busy Child - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6twhXA1Gyw
3. Why? Well, it just seems to fit. You do pixel art, haven't posted your character I colored for you before, so I'm not sure if you still feel you have a "fursona" or "character" to fall behind, but the random energy of this song seems to at least fit your icon. I also assume you're "keeping busy" child. ;P
(And later; do it myself, if ya don't mind ^^)
2. Helicopter! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R6S5CJWlco
3. Why indeed. It . just . strikes me. No really, this is one of those cases where I can see our characters side by side and literally playing this tune out. It mostly stems from the excellent wingman and comradery you showed back when we've had to deal with trolls and others picking on friends or innocent bystanders. Without even needing to give a signal, we're both on the case, and that natural synchronization of chivalry and kindness to stand up against jerks just fits to me with this song, as the chords sound like they're well doubled up and with accurate precision.
Either that, or if you'd like something more working along with the comradery instead of something abstract - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c2Zrs5R1h4 "Two Are Better Than One."
Both songs are great ^^ Though; I find myself totally digging Petra ^^
<Mental images building... storing for potential awesome project ^^>
By the by; Do you happen to play Dissidia?
2. Well, I could have gone with the DDR song "Sweet little bumble bee." but bah. :P Well, something uplifting that a bee could fly too, and just seemed to harmoinze well with the pleasant smile often associated with this bumblefox's smile, wink, and a rump shake. Don't know what I'm talking about? Well, "Maybe in the Meantime" you'll find out. ;P http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9AWGc0d8ik
3. I keep saying why in #2 instead of waiting for number 3. ^^;
=^^=
2. Though not certain who the "enemies" would be, you are always up beat and have a smile on your face. . . either that or we just assume that cause your icon is in such a joyous mood. ^_^ Well, The ballad of Tuna I'd say would be similar to the Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxQu.....mp;feature=fvw (originally by XTC, but I prefer the Crash Test Dummies version. Don't ask me why its Sims)
3. As I kinda touched on #2 by accident instead of putting it here, nice guy for sure. Looking through your gallery to get ideas based on looking at your character, I saw a gallery filled with various gift arts to friends here on FA. I don't even have that many here in my gallery other than stuff I may have colored for folks, so I felt a wave of humility to see a friend being so generous artistically to friends. All the talent in the world can't match a genuine kind heart in my book. *hugs* ^_^
=^^=
I found an alternate video, with the guy from Dumb & Dumber - it gave it a funnier spin...
XD
Yeah, but I go for sound quality. I think I know the one you speak of and it was a bit quieter.
2. Was tossing a few around, but ultimately came down to an Ozzy song for the black duster wearing Wolf. Ozzy Osbourne - Black Rain - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyHmivh67os
3. With that cool demeanor and a look that could stay cool in a dark rain as war raged around him, with beer in hand and perhaps a cig (does Tanek smoke?) just commentating and the foolishness of the world rulers around him tearing down the place. I think Black Rain fits him in my opinion. I especially like the little bit with the harmonica. I think I can see my image I'd do for you with that little bit.
I'm not so sure about this one though... Ozzy is kinda hit and miss with me, but I do like how this sounds, its just... it's a bit political. Even though Tanek is a hired gun, he's never let politics sway him one way or another. Though at the same time you did nail the whole keeping his cool in the middle of battle part... I guess in the end I like your thoughts, just not sure how to feel on the political part. Oh yeah, and the harmonica was pretty cool, heh.
2. Its a toss between 2. One I know better by The Doors "People are Strange," http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJY8jJkDoMY
or if we're going more lyrics, but not so much sound (its too slow for my personal taste, but the words hit) then perhaps Jordan Pruitt's "Outside looking in." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfC--K48Yqw
3. Well, you've never updated your journal since you've arrived, you pop in from time to time, and even you say on your page or in response that no one really seems to talk much with you and that we don't know you well enough. So you're the perpetual strange who's face we remember. ;P
2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwxUgefMStM
3. Hard to describe, it just strikes a cord for me.
Or is it more the part where you fear the "animal" is taking control? In which case I'd go for Three Days Grace http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqds0B_meys "Animal I have become."
As for fearing "the animal" taking control....why fear it? Thats when the fun starts!
So should I go with "Oh Hell Yeah," instead then? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ2Mo1jvQaY
2. "Heatseeker" by AC/DC - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GnO.....eature=related
3. I had to go back and forth between a few. I don't know if it was cause I was thinking both Kick & Punch or what, but I finally stopped on Heatseeker. The way the lyrics dual weave (I don't know how I can better describe that from my mind at this point in time) but every 2 lines, just the way they're delivered. To me, I see Kick & Punch attack from both sides, and striking the same opponent on "heatseeker" as its sung by more than just the lead vocals.
1. My bud Bill.
2. "Working Man" by Rush - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h59mDlBSt7o
3. As a hardworking man of the south (right? Or do I mistake the true cowboy in you for you being southern?) this just instantly pops to mind for me. Especially after hearing about how you hogtied that guy. XD One would think a cowboy song, but that'll make people think only of your hat and not the hard working man beneath it.
2. "Nightcrawler" by Judas Priest - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2wzpfPFBlw
3. Because even though your behavior and overall "good guy" totally belies the name and sound of the song I picked for you, there's still a dark, mysteriously cool demon that stands for that name. . . even if you do play a lousy demon cause you're all nice and give everyone a chance. ;P *ruffles your ears*
