the Frankenstein meme
Dude, this rawks. Go and play, 'cause I <3 mixes. ^_^
01. A song that wakes you up in the morning.
Duran Duran - Sunrise [Jason Nevins Remix]
The Queer Eye for the Straight Guy soundtrack makes me happy. ^_^
02. A song you loved in high school.
Maroon 5 - Harder to Breathe
Yeah, yeah, I'm a young'un. Deal with it. ;)
03. A song that mentions a dead celebrity.
Daniel Bedingfield - James Dean (I Wanna Know)
He was even nice and put it in the title so I wouldn't have to think for long. Yay!
04. A song you'd be embarrassed to listen to with your grandmother.
The Donnas - Take It Off
I'm not even really sure why I'm embarrassed, but I always hit the skip button when this comes on and someone else is in the room. *shrug*
05. A song that MTV will never play in a million, billion years.
Aqua - Lollipop (Candyman)
Hysterically saccharine dance-pop. Possibly the least cool song ever. I absolutely adore it. ^____^
06. A song with a title that ends in y.
The Who - Baba O'Riley
It's just the first song I thought of. And me likey. ^^;;
07. A song that makes you crave something.
HorrorPops - Crawl Straight Home
I've been working on a vid to this song, and I tend to do so while taking advantage of the free refills at my friendly neighborhood McDonald's. A lovely Pavlovian response has developed, and whenever it comes up on my iPod I want Diet Coke desperately. Go me.
08. A cover song that you think is better than the original.
Tatu - How Soon Is Now?
Looooove it. It just has this energy and urgency that I can't get enough of.
09. The original of #8.
The Smiths - How Soon Is Now?
While this version's okay, Tatu's version just has a certain... whatsit.
10. A song that reminds you of a fandom OTP.
Tegan & Sara - Walking With a Ghost
To me, it's always sounded like the narrator is trying to convince herself just as much as whoever she's talking to. Yay denial! What, you want to know the OTP? ... I plead the Fifth. *flees*
11. You have been caught mouthing the lyrics to this song.
Lacuna Coil - Heaven's a Lie
Mouthing the lyrics, belting it out while waiting for the bus, same thing. ^^;;
12. A song that will always make you think of a movie.
Senses Fail - Rum Is for Drinking, Not for Burning
... This is probably cheating, since it's rather obvious that the song was specifically written about Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, but whatev.
13. A song that should totally have fic written about it.
Collide - Transfer
Mmm, sexy-sounding industrial with ambiguous lyrics. Works fo' me.
14. A song you wish they'd play in elevators.
Genitorturers - Lecher Bitch
'Cause you know it'd get excellent reactions from the OMGSATANMUSICEVIL crowd. ^__^
15. You'll stop listening to this song when they pry your MP3 player out of your cold, dead hands.
Tegan & Sara - Superstar
Dude. Those guitars. That beat. <3!!!
