(no subject)
So Eggoface gave me an H for that ~music meme~ thingyjob.
1) If you'd like to play along, reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2) You then list (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 (or 6 or 7) songs that start with that letter (feel free to explain why you chose the songs).
3) Then, as I'm doing here, you'll post the list to your journal with the instructions.
LET'S SEE.
House Party, 3OH!3
OH MY GOD GUYS, THIS SONG. THIS SONG IS SO GREAT. By now my whole flist probably knows that I love these boys to death, and this song kind of captures their whole essence. This essence basically boils down to BEING RIDICULOUS AND TROLLING THE UNIVERSE. I love them, you guys.
Also, LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND, HOLY SHIT.
House of Wolves, My Chemical Romance
Ahahaha MyChem, why do I admit to liking you so easily now. So the first time I listened to The Black Parade I decreed it to be terrible and deleted most of it. This was one of the ones I didn't delete. Aaaand then I went and put the whole thing back on because I am weak. I JUST. HE ROLLS R'S THAT DON'T EXIST, YOU GUYS. IT'S KIND OF RIDICULOUSLY HOT.
How I Saved Roosevelt, from Assassins
This is like. One of my favorite Sondheim plays, you guys. It's not my favorite song, but the one bit? Where Zangara's like "No laugh! No funny!" gives me the goddamn chills, especially on the revival recording I have. Plus, I mean, it's just clever. Sondheeeeim.
Honey, The Hush Sound
HI GRETA HI. I mean. Hushies are great, you guys, and everyone should love them. And this shiny shiny video. Just. Piano! Voice! Greta! I just typoed that as "Great!" This should tell you how much you should love them!
Hello Little Girl, from Into the Woods
AHAHA SONDHEIM. This man is my favorite, okay. This song is great and this play is great and LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD IS ABOUT RAPE, YOU GUYS, DID YOU KNOW THAT, BECAUSE SONDHEIM IS ABOUT TO TELL YOU. IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS. Still subtler than some people I could name.
Holiday, Green Day
SPEAKING OF KING SUBTLE, OH LOOK. This is. Kind of the song that convinced me Green Day was not terrible. It's also the song with the highest play count in my iTunes right now, so. Yeah. Never let me make sandwiches while looping songs, you guys. Especially not on Independence Day when I'm feeling especially ~ironic~.
Hey Pretty (Drive-By 2001 Mix), Poe
I think this was the first song I'd ever heard from Poe. No, yeah, it totally was, and I'd even heard this before I read House of Leaves, which made it extra special when I got around to reading the section that's read in this mix. Also, VIDEO.
MY MUSIC TASTE, YOU GUYS, IT IS RIDICULOUS.
