Show Me Your Soul (muzak meme)
Allright, this came out all kinds of wrong and I apologize for the songs being mostly obscure wierdo songs. I might edit this later with a download of them all, so that you know how fucked up it really is. but til then, enjoy the list and of course my commentary. hehe
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Put your iPod or other music player on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the NEXT button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS!
4. Tag friends who might enjoy doing this as well as the person you got this from. Everyone can do it. XD
IF SOMEONE SAYS "IS THIS OKAY" YOU SAY?
“Nails for breakfast, Tacks for snacks” Panic at the disco.
sure it's okay if you can handle it bitches. Hehe. I'll just sit and watch you make an ass of yourself. And make sure to have the padded cell ready with some valium too? Ouch. Or maybe it's okay because I'm a doctor and you can trust me?
WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONALITY?
“You've got the Wrong Man” Tim McGraw
wtf? Oh, so I'm kinda a stalker and hell bent on proving that I'm not the same as everyone else? Okay. I get that.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
Liminality no. 2 from the dothack soundtrack??
haunting, creepy song of dedication and devotion? Yeah, I like it when they are into me in a cult like way.
WHAT IS YOUR LIFE'S PURPOSE?
“Lay it on the Line” - Triumph
okay, that's a really creepy stalker 'I will make you mine, will you take a chance on a psycho like me kind of song and if not fuck off' song. That's an interesting purpose, to say the least. But sadly (or perhaps awesomely?) enough, it makes sense.
WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
“intimate secretary” -- the raconteurs
What in the hell?!? Apparently my motto is sorta fucked up. Like really. If you don't know this song, you won't get it, even if I tried to explain it. Srsly. Sorta like 3 and a half minutes of stating the obvious in a very friendly, yet condescending sort of way. Oh, wait..... I see..... ok, next song.
WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
“a campfire song” -- 10,000 maniacs
actually, this is sorta weird, talking about being up on the mountain, sitting alone and watching the world go by. And about how the bounds between good and evil are sorta blurry. Something about 'no devil or redeemer can take his gold away'. Thanks guys, for being all straight forward and shit.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT OFTEN?
“white line fever” -- Merle Haggard
this is deep stuff, talking about what makes a man go on. How do they find the will to keep going on the road of life. Wow, that's really kinda appropriate for me, seeing as how I love to drive and go places so much, and have a gypsy sort of soul. It's a song about a trucker, but once upon a time I wanted to be a trucker for that reason, driving every where and seeing so many new places. Very nice.
WHAT IS 2+2?
“magic” -- the cars
great. 2+2 = the 80s. Why am I not surprised? And again with a sort of stalker-ish song. I mean, have any of you actually listened to the lyrics of this song? And not just the chorus? Sounds like he's got this chick tied up in his basement, strapped to a mattress with piano wire. Just think of the scene from YnM where Muraki has Hisoka tied up in the creepy old mansion. Yeah. Like that. So in conclusion, 2+2 actually equals restraining order.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
“masterpiece conspiracy” POD
I knew it. You are out to get me! Lol. Again wildly appropriate, you're both as fucked up as I am. Ah well, at least we can be paranoid and antisocial together. Surprisingly a really great “we rock, you suck” sort of anthem. But also has the intensity of the relationships, the history of I hate you but not really that we have.
WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
“three evil” -- Cohead & Cambria
ahh, so I am evil and I belong in hell. Well I do have the King of Hell as one of my UR personas. But it's also about being alone, misunderstood, in the wrong place, wrong body, with out faith, and searching for a purpose. Lonely and suicidal. Okay. Sounds like me. At least so far. But also a second layer of not taking people's bullshit excuses.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
“who needs shelter” -- Jason Mraz
like I said, a gypsy soul. Lol. Guess I'm going to either be homeless or at the very least out of the ordinary, living a life that isn't anything like the rest of the world. This is about being different and not needing the 'shelter' of society's conventions. How me.
WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
“Maria (spanlish radio mix)” Ricky Martin.
Need I say more? But I will... Hey baby, I wanna sex you bilingually. Hot, huh?
WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
“new kid in town (live)” -- the eagles
yeah, i'm like an alien to them. They just never got how to deal with me. I was like this odd thing that never fit in, always out of step with the rest of the world. 'you're walking away and they're talking behind you' Yeah. Like that.
WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
“headed for a fall” -- Firefall
nice, classic obscure rock. Very classy. Though a song about cheating and leaving your lousy partner... not my first choice I would guess. lol
WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
“hotel california” -- the eagles.
Seriously? LMAO (cuz what else can I do?) guess they never found the body huh?
WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
“another day in paradise (live)” Phil Collins
taunting homeless people? Well that's not nice now is it? Apparently I deserved the whole hotel california thing huh?
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
“Hands of Time” -- asia
obscure bonus tracks for the winz! Looks like my secret is something to do with the Armageddon (and not the bruce willis flick!) Guess I unleashed the beasts of the Apocalypse or something. Kinda reminds me of Tal from the UR, travelling back in time and fucking everything up for everyone. (more UR references here than I thought I'd find, actually)
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
“Cross me and See” -- Bonham
(on a side note, could my media player find any more obscure tracks? I mean really?) seems that I think my friends are all a bunch of thugs, pirates and thieves who are totally BAMF miners/truckers/roughnecks or whatever he's talking about. Sounds like getting drunk, picking fights and stealing some one's girlfriend. Lol.
WHAT'S THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN?
“cowtown” -- they might be giants
are you fucking kidding me? Allright, going to see the cow beneath the sea is really a bad idea. I hope that it wasn't mine. (sounds like the sponge bob theme song. Seriously. Some one should sue. For realz.)
HOW WILL YOU DIE?
“Hole” -- Kelly Clarkson
ahh, so this is how I got to the hotel california. It all makes sense now....
WHAT IS THE ONE THING YOU REGRET?
“the battle of new orleans” -- ray stevens
I didn't have anything to do with hurricane katrina! And it bothers me that there is a song about it. Especially by ray stevens. It's a mess and I now regret listening to it all the way thru. Especially since it is IN SUPPORT of George Bush..... oh wait. That's the joke right?? god I hope so.
WHAT MAKES YOU LAUGH?
“Chile” -- toad the wet sprocket
I laugh at the complexity of differentiating good from evil? And the difficulties of being true to yourself in modern society? Well, okay. Sometimes. (really great song, by the way, very relevant to me right now)
WHAT MAKES YOU CRY?
“I think about you” -- collin Raye
thinking about my imaginary daughter? Well not exactly but trying to protect the family I have from the evils of the world, that's enough to make anyone want to cry sometimes. Actually, I do get a little teary eyed thinking about my little niece in NY. She's the only child in my extended family and I've only spent a few days with her in the whole of her almost 7 years on Earth and that makes me sad, as she's such an amazing little person and I love her so much. Now I want to go to see the NY family. Sigh.
WILL YOU EVER GET MARRIED?
“One Good Reason” -- Celldweller
the answer is - not willingly. I am trying to run off and hide in the mountains! Major commitment phobia! “you can't get me” “give me one good reason why”. Yeah, fighting all the way!
WHAT SCARES YOU THE MOST?
“when I look to the sky” -- train
well I don't like heights but really? Ohh, well it's about being alone, sailing on the ocean and only having memories to keep you company. You know, I used to like this song....
DOES ANYONE LIKE YOU?
“Rio (duran duran cover)” AFI
Yeah, like they like a stripper. Guess I could do worse than being an object of sexual devotion as covered by a moody emo band with a giggly english voice over at the end? Nice.
IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME, WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE?
“can't suspend it” -- Juliana theory
how ironic. It's all about trying to escape the past and how you can't change what's already happened. Could I be more existential?
WHAT HURTS RIGHT NOW?
“tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel” Barenaked Ladies
yeah, that would hurt. Really hard. And of course, it's 8 minutes long, because they put another song on the same track and now it's hurting even longer! I'm a masochist it seems.
WHAT WILL YOU POST THIS AS?
“Show me Your Soul” Lenny Kravitz (bad boys 2 soundtrack)
great title for this meme, I have to say. But the song itself is just nonsense and I don't believe that anyone on this track is actually Lenny kravitz. It's Kanye, 50cent, Jay Z but not Lenny.
