Meme-ific
Two memes in one week? Shocking. I think the last meme I did was last summer - maybe I'm having withdrawal symptoms.
The meme is thus: one line from each of the next 20 songs to appear from your music library being played in random order.
Deep inside of a parallel universe
No voice resounds
I'm intrigued, I'm unsure, I'm searching for more
Graceless lady, you know who I amBut you're working in a factory
Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
We live in the shadows and we had the chance and threw it away
I don't know how you could not love me nowShe said, "I'm gonna be another Marilyn"
I'd rather stay single and thin
Dancing through the night with you
Because I’ve got troubles enoughWell the rain exploded in a mighty crash
My heart is broken, it's worn out at the knees
In a haze, a stormy haze
I'm waiting for you againWe were born with our eyes wide open
I'm sat here licking my wounds
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
Because it's finally something you believe
You can award yourself points for recognition (I've just composed it, and I can't identify all the lines). No cookies, mind, just points. Give yourself a gold star if you feel you deserve it.
Comments
On first reading, I can only spot Pulp and Catatonia.
Oh, there's all sorts in there. One of them, I found, isn't even Googleable. There's - lessee...
Stereophonics, Beatles, Coldplay, Oasis, Shannon Campbell, Wings, Suzanne Vega, David Gray, Meatloaf, Aimee Mann, Remy Zero, All Saints, The Sundays, My Bloody Valentine, Moxy Fruvous, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sia (the lyric you won't find on Google)...
Um. Is that it?
I've spotted the Red Hot Chili Peppers, David Gray, and Shannon Campbell. Considering I'm the one that introduced you to Remy Zero it's rather apalling that I can't spot the lyric. 'No voice resounds' maybe?
Oh, and what do you think you're doing reading the non-illustrated version of Stardust? Shame on you.
Yep, you got the Remy Zero right.
And as for Stardust, it's for a few reasons:
1 - I don't own the illustrated version
2 - I don't feel guilty for reading the text-only version for reason 1) and also because I looked through it when Kevin lent it to me many months ago
3 - the illustrated one wouldn't fit in my bag! I have to carry this on the train, you know ;-)
Cool! Tho' I feel left out cos I don't have a "music library" at least not one with the ability to play randomly. Also a lot of my music doesn't have words.
