Bored and I cant sleep
Stolen from a friend of a friend (of a friend?)
Step 1: Put your media player on random.
Step 2: Pick your favorite lines from the first 25 songs that play.
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song the lines come from.
Step 4: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly and give them credit
1. "Cause I've seen more spine on a jellyfish. I've seen more guts in eleven year old kids." KATIE
2. "It's thoughts like this that catch my troubled head when you're away, when I am missing you to death." MELISSA
3. "Even though you're seventeen I gotta tell ya, you're too old for me." JOSH
4. "For all of this, I'm better off without you. Do you regret your loneliness?"
5. "I wish the world was flat like the old days, then I could travel just by folding a map"
6. "Go roll down that window. Go crank up that radio. Let's drive until we hit the sky. It's not about where we go, let's start living life before we die"
7. "God speed all the bakers at dawn, may they all cut their thumbs and bleed into their buns till they mely away"
8. "Does our world benefit the earth? Does it help the grass to grow or the sun to shine? Is this darkness in you too?"
9. "I felt so bad when your mom caught us eating ice cream in your room at three in the morning cuz I'd hate for her to not want me around her daughter."
10. "What would you say, if I asked you not to go, to forget everything, forget everyone and start over with me?"
11. "Without the reign of terror over every momentary change, we are exactly as before" LAURA
12. "You can't deny the loser inside, all of your bad tastes won't subside" JAKE
13. "I went to her house, and everybody there was gone, her little cousin just passed out on the lawn" CARYN
14. "Kid with downs, wins the race, even though he stood in place" TOM H
15. "It's just the thought of you in love with someone else. It breaks my heart to see you hanging from your shelf" LAURA
16. "Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain, where rocking-horse people eat marshmallow pies"
17. "I'm pissed off but I'm too polite, when people break in the McDonald's line" JAKE
18. "The timing and structure. Did you hear he fucked her?" JAKE
19. "Bye-bye beautiful. Don't bother to write. Disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars" KATIE
20. "I need you like Ben Affleck needs acting school, he was terrible in that film" JAKE
21. "I'm quiet, you know. You make a first impression. I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind"
22. "Last week was like a day. Time turned fragile when I turned 22"
23. "Forget about the dirty looks, the photographs your boyfriend took, you said you read me like a book but the pages all are torn and frayed"
24. "Well the kids don't eat, and the dog don't sleep. There's no escape from the music in the whole damn street" JAKE
25. "There's pigeons down on Market Square. She's standing in her underwear" EMILY
Some of these are more difficult than others. Some go out to some people (hint, one of them is for jake!). And I cheated, I chose every one of these songs.
If you are a person visiting without a livejournal, get one! feel free to make an anonymous comment and leave your name in it so I know who you are!
GOOD LUCK!
