I got the stuff that you want, I got the thing that you need
So, my first ever Frankenmix! Take... share... enjoy!
An explanation for the concept of the Frankenstein Mix can be found here, and the current round's masterlist is located here.
1. A song that could have been written about/for you.
Queen of the Night - Whitney Huston (shuddup! It's got a line instructing listeners to play airguitar!)
"I've got the feeling & I'm willing tonight / Well I ain't nobody's angel / What can I say? / Well I'm just that way"
2. A song for that bad day to end all bad days.
Stuck in the Middle with You - Stealers Wheel (and I've never even seen Reservoir Dogs)
"Trying to make some sense of it all / But I can see that it makes no sense at all / Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?"
3. A song about the end of the world.
Galileo - Indigo Girls (early 20s flashbacks)
"If we wait for the time til our souls get it right / Then at least I know there'll be no nuclear annihilation / In my lifetime, I'm still not right"
4. A song about the devil.
World's Most Handsome Man - Robbie Williams (oh so perfectly cheesy)
"It's hard to be humble / When you're so fuckin' big / Did you ever meet a sexier male chauvinist pig?"
5. A song that reminds you of your favourite pair of jeans
The Mustard - Once More With Feeling Soundtrack (no notes required *g*)
6. A song for lying to your mother.
The Internet Is For Porn - Avenue Q (um.... yes)
"Normal people don’t sit at home and look / At porn on the internet"
7. A drunk song.
I've Never Been To Me - Charlene (aka the kareoke song of my dreams)
"I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see"
8. A song for truth.
As Is - Ani DiFranco (beautiful!)
"cuz when i look down / i just miss all the good stuff / when i look up / i just trip over things"
9. A song you could have written about somebody else.
Stolen Car - Beth Orton (and how)
"You were sitting / Your fingers like fuses / Your eyes were cinnamon."
10. A song to listen to while watching a fire burn.
Untouchable Face - Ani DiFranco (ok... so it's an angry fire)
"and who am i / that i should be vying for your touch / and who am i / i bet you can't even tell me that much"
11. A song about an angel.
Look At Me - Voice of the Beehive (a slightly debauched angel)
"Its just like you to leave me / Shaking in my go-go boots / I've seen love it might be true / I've seen it it look just like you"
12. A modern-day lullaby.
Let Go - Frou Frou (or, in fact, everything on the Garden State Soundtrack)
"so let go, just get in / oh, it's so amazing here / it's alright / 'cause there's beauty in the breakdown"
