The iPod/iTunes meme

Put your iTunes/Winamp/WMP on shuffle. Say the following questions aloud, and press play. Use the song title as the answer to the question. NO CHEATING.

1. How does the world see me?
Psycho: the musical (Moosebutters)

Norman Bates was just a motel owner
No one liked him
He was such a loner
Through the wall he sees me
An evil plan connives he
I am nude; I get a sudden fright...

"Reee! Reee!"
Was the music in the night.


Apropos.

2. Will I have a happy life?
Sunspots (Nine Inch Nails)

she turns me on
she makes it real
i have to apologize
for the way i feel

my life it seems has taken a turn
why in the name of god would i ever want to return


Sounds good...

3. What do my friends think of me?
Cure for Pain (Morphine)

Where is the cave where the wise woman went?
And tell me where, where's all that money that I spent?

I propose a toast To my self control
You see it crawlin helpless on the floor


I'd hope I had a bit more integrity in your eyes, but damn.

4. Do people secretly lust after me?
Taste of Blood (Mazzy Star)

The taste of red,
The taste of fear
From your seemingly convincing smile


Fuckin' vampires.

5. How can I make myself happy?
Casiotone nation (Soul Coughing)

The five percent Nation of Harmful Free Radicals.
The five percent Nation of Oxygen Cocktails.
The five percent Nation of Casiotone.


Wow. I got nothin'.

6. What should I do with my life?
Thursday (Morphine)

One day she said come on come on she said
Why don't you come back to my house
She said my husband's out of town
You know he's gone till the end of the month


I should hang out in bars and bang married women with violent husbands?

7. Will I ever have children?
So Far I Have Not Found the Science (Soul Coughing)

I don't mind the worry following me like a dinosaur
I don't fear I am descending into the molten core
So far, I have not found the science
But the numbers keep on circling me
I'm gonna give you most of mine
I'm gonna give it if I don't slip you


I'm gonna take that as a negative.


8. What is some good advice for me?
Los (Rammstein)

(translated)

We were nameless
We have a name
We were wordless
The words came
Without a good voice
We are still
But not soundless
You can hear that
We aren't perfect
Only a bit uncontrolled
You went quiet
Don't (let) us go


Uh... persevere?

Incidentally, this is one of my favorite songs.


9. How will I be remembered?
Give You My Lovin' (Mazzy Star)

People give me warnings,
Stay away from you
They say you’ll hurt me,
I don’t think that’s true


Twisted little song, really.


10. What's my signature dancing song?
You Speak My Language (Morphine)

Fast and spastic. Nobody understands me but you.


11. What's my current theme song?
Collapse (soul coughing)

Mid-level manager
Says he heard about
Some mulatto girl
Shot him in the mouth,

And left him a hotel Near the mid-south offices.
He worked in distribution,
Regional vice-president.

Collapse, unload it, pop! pop!
I must accumulate, unload it,
Pop! Pop! I must accumulate.


Another favorite song.


12. What do others think is my current theme song?
Testy Tiger reprise (the Blanks)

Grr

Testy Tiger
Look out, ‘cause this cat’s the bomb
Testy Tiger
You don’t want to test his calm

He’s a real sourpuss, and he’s liable to snap
His bite’ll be incited by the slightest mishap

Don’t even tap him on the shoulder, or you’re really screwed
He’s touchy and tetchy
And over the edge
He’s Testy Tiger
He’s in a real bad mood

Ouch! That’s my scratching post!

Gr-owl


Raar!


13. What shall they play at my funeral?
Ohne Dich (Rammstein)

I'm going to go into the fir trees
There where I last saw her
But the evening is throwing a cloth upon the land
and upon the ways behind the edge of the forest
And the forest it is so black and empty
Woe is me, oh woe
And the birds sing no more

Without you I cannot be
Without you
With you I am alone too
Without you
Without you I count the hours without you
With you the seconds stand still
They aren't worth it

On the branches in the ditches
it's now silent and without life
And breathing becomes oh so hard for me
Woe is me, oh woe
And the birds sing no more

Without you I cannot be
Without you
With you I am alone too
Without you
Without you I count the hours without you
With you the seconds stand still
They aren't worth it without you


Damn, that's... appropriate.


14. What type of women do I like?
Jack and Tina (Morphine)

Tina was fast Tina was using her head last.
Tina was fast Tina was bright Tina was using her head last.
Tina was fast Tina was bright Tina was using her in.
She was bright. Bright as sunshine.


Fast and bright. Yeah, baby.

15. How's my love life?
Paint (Soul Coughing)

Paint!

Paint!

Collide a clause, unremitting can you cram?

I know you're dumb as paint.


Huh? Okay, that's cryptic.
