Jan. 2nd, 2009 03:15 pm"Bad Sun" by The Bravery
We are liars like the summertime
Like the spring, we are such fools
Like the fall, we are false prophets
And like winter, we are cruel
I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine
Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
We are liars like the summertime
Like the spring, we are such fools
Like the fall, we are false prophets
And like winter, we are cruel
I don't know what's wrong with us
They just made us this way
There's a hole in you and me
That pulls us together
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
Every day you bring me pain
And we savor it like rain
We hold it on our tongues
Just like wine
Someday back when we were young
I guess something just went wrong
The two of us are hung
From the same twisted rope
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
And I don't know where we belong
I think we grew under a bad sun
I know we're not like everyone
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
You and me, we grew under a bad sun
"guess the song by the lyrics" meme
Sep. 22nd, 2008 06:34 pmStep 1: Put your iTunes player* on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 32 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 3: Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Bold the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
*I used a different program, since I can't be arsed to move all my recently-acquired music to iTunes at the moment.
( I made an executive decision to skip instrumental pieces )
You know what's really annoying? Songs that are officially instrumental which clearly contain singing -- just singing that's mixed under the instruments and extraordinarily difficult to make out. "Tidal" by David Usher is one such song. Very frustrating.

Home on LaGrange (The L5 Song)
Jan. 16th, 2008 10:30 amYou're going to need to know what LaGrange Points are to get this song.
( Knowledge of the tune to 'Home on the Range' is also quite useful ;3 )

Dec. 5th, 2007 06:15 amPut your player on shuffle and post two lines from the first 25 songs to play, no matter how embarrassing. Then let your friends identify them - no Googling allowed!
I skipped over instrumentals, but stuff it, you guys can guess the foreign stuff -- trust me, it could have been worse. ;3
Got it from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

( onto the music )
I think #25 is probably the hardest, because those lines? Are the most English in the song.

Some people would rather live the false life they were given so long ago than return to some "true" identity that leaves them lobotomized. Live and die as a warrior lord. Selena, in the end, was the product of Allen's desires to have his sister back. Lord Dilandau died that day. Perhaps it was a mercy. Perhaps it was even his will.
And, after that randomly purple bit of exposition, I give you some lyrics which just now are striking me as somehow Dilandau appropriate:
Notice of hiatus
May. 20th, 2007 07:44 pmMy bags are packed, I'm ready to go~
Well, tomorrow morning I'm leaving on a aeroplane. I am heading north (yes, NORTH!) to go take care of some family business and very likely attend the funeral of my grandmother. (But as of today, so far as I know, she is still alive. Hallucinating freely, but alive.) I should be back Friday.
If you're the praying type, pray my plane doesn't crash in the ocean, or pray I don't get in a fight with a moose, or, really, pray for Nan's pain to end.
If you're not the praying sort, but you're the 'drinking to things important to other people' sort, well, raise a glass to Sally Brown.
Kathy, I set you free
Ride with the spirits,
Fly like the wind
On your journey to find your peace
In my heart you'll always be
Kathy, I set you free

A song for the Fourth Horseman
Mar. 5th, 2007 02:23 amSo, I've bene listening to a predominantly Aerosmith playlist today, adn just now one of the songs I particularly like struck me as appropriate for Warren Worthington III in the whole fall of the Angel storyline, coming back as Death. It's probably a hell of a lot more mellow than he was capable of being at the time, but it works well for, say, when he's going after Hodge for cutting off his wings and kidnapping/torturing/killing Candy Southern.
In fact, Candy would be repeatedly mentioned. FYI when Jean was gone, Candy adventured with Warren and a few others as a (non-powered, I believe) Marvel Girl. Wore the green minidress and the mask and everything. Right dress, wrong girl.
The song is ( Ain't That A Bitch )

Screaming Kings - lyrics
Jan. 12th, 2007 05:51 amI went looking for the lyrics to this song to give a link to lakidaa, because I use it as inspiration when writing Booster Gold. (I use three other song from the album for Guy/Bea. :3) To my great dismay, every site I looked at had obviously pasted the same transcription of the lyrics -- right down to some slightly wonky formatting -- and it was wrong. I know I wasn't looking at a "misheard lyrics" page or anything, and I know that it's not just that it's sung differently than it's written in the lyrics sheet for the CD, because I have the CD and the lyrics aren't provided.
So, here they are: the lyric to Screaming Kings from the album Another Spin Around the Sun, by Edwin.
( Boy, you're in your make-up )

Feb. 13th, 2006 08:22 pmThis is a song by Tea Party. The name eludes me right now. I shall edit it in. It might be "Sister Awake".
When the winter was over
She returned there to find him
And her memories filled her
With light
She remembered the beauty
She remembered desire
And her memories filled her
With light
I am the sun in the flame
Cold from the flame turns away
And in these winds came the change
She wakes, ahhhh
[sitar & drums solo]
Sister, walk through these fields of delight
I want you to know
Desperation's the tenderest trap
So gently you go
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
When this beautiful cult of desire
Has left you for dead
Isolation will cradle the lies
Of things left unsaid
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
And you'll look to the heavens above
And taste its deceit
These temptations have blinded desires
To sleep at their feet
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
Sister!
And you'll hear them call out your name
Invoking their Fates
Chances are you've travelled too far
In stirring their hate
So what will it take?
My sister, awake!
Sister, awake!
Sister, awake!
Awake!
Awake!
When the winter was over
She returned there to find him
And her memories filled her
With light
She remembered the beauty
She remembered desire
And her memories filled her
With light
I am the sun in the flame
Cold from the flame turns away
And in these winds came the change
She wakes, ahhhh
[sitar & drums solo]
Sister, walk through these fields of delight
I want you to know
Desperation's the tenderest trap
So gently you go
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
When this beautiful cult of desire
Has left you for dead
Isolation will cradle the lies
Of things left unsaid
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
And you'll look to the heavens above
And taste its deceit
These temptations have blinded desires
To sleep at their feet
What will it take?
Sister, awake
Sister, awake
Sister!
Sister!
Sister!
And you'll hear them call out your name
Invoking their Fates
Chances are you've travelled too far
In stirring their hate
So what will it take?
My sister, awake!
Sister, awake!
Sister, awake!
Awake!
Awake!
Found things!
Jul. 14th, 2005 05:52 pmFound the fic scenes I've been looking for. They were on looseleaf, not in a notebook after all. D'oh.
So I'm staring at the whipped cream tag scene I wrote and wondering if I can work it into Once More, With Feeling... *ebils*
( And now, gratuitous depressing lyrics that reminded me of Booster today )
