Song meme (It's a contest too, bebeh!)
So, I'm back. It feels good to be home. Anyway, thought I'd kick off my return with a journal that's just a contest. And a meme. Fun times, eh?
So, what I did was simple: I put my Zune on shuffle, and then I posted my favorite lyrics from each of the first 25 songs that played. You have to figure out who the song is by, and what song it is, and post your answer in a comment. You get one point for each song you get right. Whoever gets the most points gets a prize- though I'm not sure what it is yet. I'm good for my word, though.
(Oh, and please don't paste the lyrics into google. Let's try for a little academic honesty, eh?)
**************************************
1. And I'm the one that I counted on for all the favors that I ask of me/ You're the one that'll cry the tears when you see what you've created of me...
2. I'll swing here, I'll hang from this rope just at least until they've found me/ Stay close dear, the note on the floor says I wish that you were here
3. Everybody started having sex/ the music was way too powerful/ A bunch of old people fucking like rabbits/ it was disgusting to say the least
4. Someone told me that love could not save us/ but how could that be, cause look what love gave us
5. Stop the looting, stop the shooting/ Pick pocking on the corner/ See as the rich is getting richer/ The poorer is getting poorer
6. Got a taste, gotta say I'm a junkie for life/ she fuels my fire and adrenaline high
7. I still go to Taco Bell, drive through, raw, yeah/ I don't care, I'm still real, no matter how many records I sell
8. dressed up like a princess/ bettin' that her skin smells/ better than the scent of every flower in the desert come on
9. Here in my heart I believe/ Your love is all I'll ever need/ Holdin' you close through the night/ I need you, yeah
10. I never thought that I would be/ So addicted to you/ On top, underneath, on the side of you/ Better yet baby inside of you
11. I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd/ You're gonna hear my voice/ When I shout it out loud
12. I know I hate you, I can't escape you./ You bring me emptiness and nothing I've become./ I can't resist it, I wouldn't miss it./ It's finally coming out, the darkness and the cold.
13. But all that they can see the words revealed/ Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel/ Just stuck, hollow and alone/ And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
14. I watched the proverbial sunrise/ Coming up over the Pacific and/ You might think I'm losing my mind,/ But I will shy away from the specifics...
15. I'm a big girl I can handle myself/ But if I get lonely I’ma need your help/ Pay attention to me I don't talk for my health
16. I scrutinize every word, memorize every line/ I spit it once, refuel, re-energize and rewind/ I give sight to the blind, my insight through the mind
17. When the morning this feeling will be gone, has no chance going on/ Something so right has got no chance to live
18. He wakes up haunted/ With voices in his head/ Nobody knows it/ But today he won't go unnoticed
19. Something about you caught my eye,/ Something moved me deep inside/ Don't know what you did boy but/ You had it and I've been hooked ever since
20. If you really wanna know me first of all/ You should never try to get to personal/ 'Cause I meant it when I said...
21. She got a light skinned friend, look like Michael Jackson/ Got a dark skinned friend, look like Michael Jackson
22. The panicking cries the roaring of guns are echoing all around the valley/ The mission complete they make to escape away from the Eagles Nest
23. Stimulate, wide awake, need to stop this pain inside my head, cause it's laughing at me/ Injection, explosion, burning as it surges through my vein.
24. You're the star of the masquerade/ No need to look so afraid/ Jump on the tiger/ You can feel his heart but you know he's mean/ Some light can never be seen
25. How does it feel when you kiss when you know that I trust you/ And do you think about me when he fucks you?
