    by Blackbird_1565 on January 04, 2009
    Taken from another journal... any qualms, let me know and I'll delete this entry. I'm a sucker for these surveys. What should they have played when you were born?: "Hour of Darkness" - Social Distortion. Haha! That's amazing. What song will people play at your funeral?: "6 to 8" - AFI. That's a long frickin' funeral. What song will you play at your wedding?: "City of New Orleans" - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Perfect Party band, for sure. What song will you play at your 50'th birthday party?: "The Wizard and I" - Carole Shelley. Cool. Musical theme. Awesome. If you get your dream life... What song will you dance to when you win the lottery?: "Funcoland vs. the Southern Electorate" - Bomb the Music Industry! More like mosh to when I win the lottery. What song will you play when you get your dream job?: "Take a Chance on Me" - Ted Leo cover. Perfect! That I can get behind. What song will you play when you discover your own island?: "Black Stars" - Jolie Holland. That's pretty relaxing, if you think about it, it's perfect island music! What song will you play when you rule the world?: "Nervous Habits" - the Cute Lepers. Haha... my tyrannical despotism is a direct result of an extreme anxiety disorder. What song will you play when you're in heaven?: "Remedy" - Hot Water Music. To steal a quote from a friend of mine, "Chuck, yeah!" What song makes you feel.... Happy: "The Legend of John Henry's Hammer" - Johnny Cash. Uh, not really. Sad: "One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)" - Bob Dylan. What makes me sad is not knowing how this got into my iTunes library. Sexy: "Scattered" - Green Day. Again, nope. Angry: "Fixing a Hole" - the Beatles. Wow. Way off. Jealous: "Since U Been Gone" - Ted Leo cover. Well... at least it fits, though I can't listen to the original without laughing. Thanks a lot, man! Flirty: "By the Sea" - Sweeney Todd Movie Cast. This just makes me feel pitiful. And annoyed. My roommate plays this soundtrack way too much. Evil: "Top of the Charts" - MxPx. Wow. No. Innocent: "Hold Me Down" - Motion City Soundtrack. Now, this song makes me sad. Beautiful: "Tracy's Blood" - Mike Borgia. Nah. It makes me feel kind of down. What song makes you feel like you're an armadillo?: "The End" - Hot Water Music. Well, alright then. At least it would be the end of me being human. What song makes you feel like you can fly?: "We Will" - Ryan's Hope. At least it's optimistic, judging by the title anyway. What song makes you cry?: "Part IV (The Index Fossil)" - Bad Religion. Nope. It makes me want to mosh. What song makes you feel like dancing?: "Four Inches of Heaven" - Radon. Yup! What song makes you feel like being emo?: "Pompeii" - Sleater-Kinney. Hey! This one's actually kind of emo! What song makes you feel like a donut?: "Disappointment" - The Cranberries. Yeah, that would make me feel like a donut, all right. What song reminds you of your childhood?: "My Band" - D12. Wow... haven't heard this song in years. What song reminds you that life sucks?: "Navigating the Windward Passage" - the Lawrence Arms. If anything, a Larry Arms song would remind me how awesome life can be. What song makes you eat compulsivly?: "I Feel the Earth Move" - Carole King. Hahaha!! That's frickin' awesome. What song makes you nervous?: "5,000,000,000" - The Secret Stars. Well, it is pretty foreboding... What song makes you need to pee?: "Punk Rawk Celebrity" - MxPx. No, but the lyrics kind of make me cringe. This song describes... Yourself: "Finale: Wicked" - Original Broadway Cast. Ugh. No chance. Your mom: "Smallpox Champion" - Fugazi. Ha. No. Your dad: "Knife in My Belly" - Josh Small. No way, not even close. Your best friend: "Special Professional" - Dead to Me. Okay, who switched up the tracks for me and my best friend. SHE's the Wicked freak, and I'm the DTM freak. Duh. Your stalker: "Another Word for Desperate" - Straylight Run. Well, yeah. Duh. Your school: "Brat" - Green Day. Well, UCI is filled with a bunch of trust fund cases... it fits! Your life: "The Nephilim" - AFI. You know... I have no idea. Your death: "The Small Print" - Muse. But, I'm not Catholic. Your attitude towards life: "Suspect Device" - Ted Leo and the Pharmacists cover (What's with all the Ted Leo covers!?) I can't really argue with that. Dang. All the covers have been dead on! This is why I

  • Great, She's On Another Rampage...

    by Blackbird_1565 on September 15, 2007
    Wow... it's been awhile since I've written something in here, huh? Ok, here it goes: just because someone is the vocalist in a band, doesn't mean that they wrote the lyrics to every single song. Look at the Ramones: Dee Dee wrote a lot of the lyrics to their songs, but who sang them all? Joey. Look at Bad Religion: there are two songwriters people (and if you're lucky, three to four!) Geez! Give the proper people credit! It's not right!!!

  • Whoa!! There's a Journal Feature?!

    by Blackbird_1565 on March 10, 2007
    Oh, wow! I never realized that there was a journal feature on this site. That may seem like a stupid thing to base one's first entry on, but... if you've never really known that it was there, what do you expect? I could go on for hours on end, but I think that I'm going to stop before I sound too much (more) like a dork. The bass guitar's a calling!
