2. Include lines from the song you chose!
1) First off, what’s your theme song?
[It has to have words, doesn't it? Damn. >( ]
"Let's Dance to Joy Division" by The Wombats
"So if your ever feeling down,
Grab your purse and take a taxi,
To the darker side of town,
That's where we'll be,
And we will wait for you and lead you through the dance floor,
Up to the D.J booth,
You know what to ask for,
You know what to ask for.
Go ask for Joy Division,
And celebrate the irony,
Everything is going wrong,
But we're so happy,
Let's dance to joy division,
And raise our glass to the ceiling,
'Cos this could all go so wrong,
But we're just so happy,
So happy.
So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
(Let it tear us apart)
So let the love tear us apart,
I've found the cure for a broken heart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart,
Let it tear us apart!"
2) What song reminds you of someone you’re crushing/have crushed on?
"Sally's Song" by Fiona Apple
"And does he notice my feelings for him?
And will he see how much he means to me?
I think it's not to be
What will become of my dear friend
Where will his actions lead us then?
Although I'd like to join the crowd
In their enthusiastic cloud
Try as I may, it doesn't last
And will we ever end up together?
No, I think not, it's never to become
For I am not the one."
3) What song makes you sad when you listen to it?
"Tearjerker" by Korn
"Well I wish there was someone
Well I wish there was someone to love me
When I used to be someone
and I knew there was someone that loved me
as I sit here frozen alone
even ghosts get tired and go home
as they crawl back under the stones
And I wish there was something
please tell me there's something better
and I wish there was something more than this
Saturated loneliness."
4) What five songs mean the most to you and why?
[Thass a really hard question..]
[1] "For The Widows In Paradise; For The Fatherless In Ypsilanti" by Sufjan Stevens
It reminds me of how I'm far too friendly and people end up taking advantage of me. ..Plus, I really like it?
"I have called you children, I have called you son.
What is there to answer if I'm the only one?
Morning comes in Paradise, morning comes in light.
Still I must obey, still I must invite.
If there's anything to say, if there's anything to do,
If there's any other way, I'll do anything for you.
I was dressed embarrassment.
I was dressed in wine.
If you had a part of me, will you take you're time?
Even if I come back, even if I die
Is there some idea to replace my life?
Like a father to impress;
Like a mother's mourning dress,
If you ever make a mess, I'll do anything for you
I have called you preacher; I have called you son.
If you have a father or if you haven't one,
I'll do anything for you. I did everything for you."
[2] "That Was The Worst Christmas Ever!" by Sufjan Stevens
At times when things are supposed to be the best, they more often than not suck balls.
"Going outside
Shoveling snow in the driveway, driveway
Taking our shoes
Riding our sled down the hillside, hillside
Can you say what you want?
Can you say what you want to be?
Can you be what you want?
Can you be what you want?
Our father yells
Throwing our gifts in the wood stove, wood stove
My sister runs away
Taking her books to the schoolyard, schoolyard
In time the snow will rise, in time the snow will rise
In time the Lord will rise, in time the Lord will rise
Silent night, Holy night
Silent night, nothing feels right."
[3] "Danny Boy" by Celtic Woman
This song's gotten me through some tough times.
"Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so."
[4] "Sunshine Highway" by Dropkick Murphys
The song that inspired me to try harder and pull myself out of a downward spiral! :)
"Take another ride on the sunshine highway,
Take another ride, try to turn it around!
Take another ride down the sunshine highway,
Take another ride, try to turn it around tonight!"
[5] "Faking My Own Suicide" Relient K
Because I've always wondered who would miss me if I died.
"I wish you thought that I was dead
So rather than me you'd be depressed instead
And before arriving at my grave
You'd come to the conclusion
You'd loved me all your days
But it's too late
Too late for you to say
Because I'm faking my own suicide
Because I know you love me
You just haven't realized
Oh, I'm faking my own suicide
They'll hold a double funeral
Because a part of you will die
Along with me."
5) What five artists mean the most to you and why?
[Uhhh.. o_o;]
[1] Rammstein
I met my ex-best friend wiff their music and thus their music holds a lot of sentimental value.
[2] Toybox
See above. >_> She's still my best friend, though, and probably always will be. We didn't meet with their music, but she sends it to me all the time, so.. yeah.
[3] Relient K
One o' my best mates sent me two of their songs, Faking My Own Suicide and Deathbed, so.. uhh.. dafhdfh?
[4] Korn
'Coz they rock? >.o;;
[5] Dropkick Murphys
BECAUSE I HAVE A MONOCLE p_o I say!
6) What song best describes your current situation?
"Everything's Just Wonderful" by Lily Allen
"Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental,
It seems to me that it's spiraling outta control and it's inevitable,
Now don't you think,
This time is yours, this time is mine,
It's temperamental,
It seems to me, we're on all fours,
Crawling on our knees,
Someone help us please
Oh Jesus Christ almighty,
Do I feel alright? No not slightly,
I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it,
It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage,
Well it's very funny cos I got your fucking money,
And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit
Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble,
I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles."
7) What song describes what you’re doing now/today?
"Love Today" by MIKA
[No, I'm not having sex. >_>]
"Everybody's gonna love today,
Gonna love today, gonna love today!
Everybody's gonna love today, gonna love today!
Anyway you want to, anyway you've got to!
Love love me, love love me, love love!
I've been crying for so long,
Fighting tears just to carry on,
But now, but now, it's gone away!
Hey girl why can't you carry on?
Is it 'cause you're just like your mother?
Little tyke, like to tease for fun.
Well you ain't gonna tease no other,
Gonna make you a lover!"
8) What song could be a message to an ex of yours?
"Smile" by Lily Allen
[You know who you are. :) ]
"At first when I see you cry,
It makes me smile,
Yea, it makes me smile.
At worst I feel bad for a while,
But then I just smile,
I go ahead and smile."
9) What song just makes you want to smile and sing with a grin on your face?
"Chori Chori Gori Se" by Jimi Mistry
"Chori Chori Hum Gori Se Pyaar Karengey
Chupke Chupke Dil Ki Baatein Yaar Karengey
Chori Chori Hum Gori Se Pyaar Karengey
Chupke Chupke Dil Ki Baatein Yaar Karengey
Aane Waali, Kabh Aayegi Koi De Bataa
Dhoond Rahe Hain, Jaane Kabh Se, Hum Uska Pataa
Aaja Aaja Aaja Aaja Aaja Aaja Aa"
10) What song describes your childhood?
"Surfacing" by Slipknot
"FUCK YOU ALL!
Running out of ways to run!
I can't see, I can't be.
Over and over and under my skin,
All this attention is DOING ME IN!
FUCK IT ALL! FUCK THIS WORLD!
FUCK EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T EXIST!
DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!
Picking through the parts exposed,
Taking shape, taking shag.
Over and over and under my skin,
All this MOMENTUM is DOING ME IN!
FUCK IT ALL! FUCK THIS WORLD!
FUCK EVERYTHING THAT YOU STAND FOR!
DON'T BELONG! DON'T exist!
DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
DON'T EVER JUDGE ME!
AND DON'T YOU FUCKIN' JUDGE ME!
You got all my love, livin' in your own hate!
Drippin' hole man, hard step, no fate.
Show you nuthin', but I ain't holdin' back.
Every damn word I say is a sneak attack!
When I get my hands on you,
Ain't a fucking thing you can do,
Get this 'cuz you're never gonna get me,
I am the very disease you pretend to be!"
11) When you feel like just cranking up the volume and rocking out, what song do you turn to?
"Barroom Hero" by Dropkick Murphys
"He's been at it for years, drinkin' balls and beers,
He's a hero to most he meets. (Hey, hey, hey!)
But inside he cries black, swollen eyes,
This man, he sheds no tears.
Now his wife and kids sing a different tune
As they worry bout their daddy dyin'. (Hey, hey, hey!)
But this arrogant fool breaks every rule,
It'll be nothin but pride that kills him!
Can he listen no he wont,
that's all she wrote,
he'll be dead before the daylight shines!
But the thoughts and prayers
OF A MILLION STRONG might keep this fool from dying!"
12) Twelve is an odd number to end a meme at, but here it goes. If you sent a song/lyrics to the person you dislike the most, what would it be?
"The Virus Of Life" by Slipknot
[Here's the whole song 'coz it's just that amazing! O:]
"(Ah, no...no...don't...tell me you want it...yeah...tell me, tell me if you want it....oh...shh...wait...wait...not yet...not yet...not yet...not yet...)
YEAH!!!!!
I can see you, but you can't see me..
I could touch you and you wouldn't even feel me..
Wait a second and you'll settle down..
I'm just waiting till you REALLY let your guard down..
You're RELAXED, you're SUBLIME, you're AMAZING,
You don't even know the DANGER you're facing..
If I'm quiet, I'll slide up behind you..
And if you hear me, I'll ENJOY trying to find you..
I've been with you all day..
I'm trying to stay calm..
I'm impatient and it's
Really hard to breathe..
I'm going to empty you and
fill you in with me..
Keep the violence down,
Not yet, don't make a sound.
Oh, God, I'm feeling it,
It's reaching fever pitch!
My skin is caving in,
My heart is driving out,
NO MERCY, NO REMORSE!
LET NATURE TAKE ITS COURSE!
Watching - BRING ME TO MY KNEES!
Waiting - I AM YOUR DISEASE!
Lover - SET MY SYMPTOM FREE!
Covered - YOU CAN'T STOP ME!
(Shh... Wait.... Hush... No!... Wait, wait... No!... Shh, wait, wait... Not yet... No, wait! ...Wait!)
I'm sweating through my veins..
I'm trying to hold on..
It's unbearable, it's almost worse for me..
I'm gonna TEAR YOU APART
And make you see- MAKE YOU SEE!
Watching - BRING ME TO MY KNEES!
Waiting - I AM YOUR DISEASE!
Lover - SET MY SYMPTOM FREE!
Covered - YOU CAN'T STOP ME!
(AHHHHHHH...!)
This is the virus, the virus of life!
This is inside us, the crisis, the knife!
This is the virus, the virus of life!
This is inside us, the crisis, the knife!
It's almost time to play!
It's time to be afraid!
I can't control the pain!
I can't control in vain!
Oh God, I'm ready now!
You're almost ready now!
I'm gonna love you now
I'm gonna put you down!
I see you in the dark!
I see you all the way!
I see you in the light!
I see you plain as day!
I wanna touch your face,
I wanna touch your soul!
I WANNA WEAR YOUR FACE!
I WANNA BURN YOUR SOUL!
Watching- Bring me to my knees!
Waiting- I am your disease!
Lover- Set my symptom free!
Covered- You can't stop me!
(AHHHHHHHH...!)
(Heheheh...)
This is the virus, the virus of life..
This is the virus, the virus of life..
This is the virus, the virus of life..
This is the virus, the virus of life..
THIS IS THE VIRUS, THE VIRUS OF LIFE!
THIS IS THE VIRUS, THE VIRUS OF LIFE!
THIS IS THE VIRUS, THE VIRUS OF LIFE!
THIS IS THE VIRUS, THE VIRUS OF LIFE!
(Ah... Ah... Hehahahehehahehahaheh... Ah... Ah... Ah... Oh, God...)"

CUE THE RANDOM SMILEY FACE SEIZURE
"The littlest things that take me there,
I know it sounds lame but it’s so true.
I know it’s not right but it seems unfair
That things are reminding me of you.
Sometimes I wish we could just pretend,
Even if only for one weekend,
So come on,
Tell me,
Is this the end?"
It didn't fit in the five songs part. :< When we first stopped being friends, I really noticed how many things I have that are associated with you, and so that song makes me think of you. :/
