.i got lost in the sounds.

So I decided to make the most expansive, most descriptive "about me" ever. Inspired by facebook (my new boredom tool!), encouraged by many non-existant classes and classes I have cut, and my love of music.... I decided to go through my songs, picked a bunch out, and pulled lyrics from each of the 21 songs I chose, and put them all into paragraph

Comments

[break_the_stars]

hahah yuppppp. :D so up your alley isn't it?

I definitely know some of these songs

[deeplyunhip]

It's My Life - Bon Jovi
Wreck of the Day - Anna Nalick
La Vie Boheme - Rent (and in case you haven't seen the Harry Potter La Vie Boheme, ridiculousness yet, I thought I'd put a link here!)
I'm Like A Bird - Nelly Furtado
Unwritten - Natasha Bedingfield
Consider This - Anna Nalick

Also, I have no idea what the "church of hot addiction" is from, but it sounds like a pretty kickass song. ;)

Re: I definitely know some of these songs

[break_the_stars]

no I haven't! I'll have to click the link. I'm excited. Haha and you got a bunch of the songs as well. :) Then again, you would.

And, it is a kickass song. You should dl it. See the comments to see who it's by. Because I like to put people in suspense so I'm not telling you lol.

Hmm... the ones I can think of first are

"It's My Life" -- Bon Jovi
"La Vie Boheme" -- RENT
"Fidelity" -- Regina Spektor
"The Flowers" -- Regina Spektor
"The Church of Hot Addiction" -- Cobra Starship
"Après Moi" -- Regina Spektor

This is really cool by the way. I think I'll have to give it a shot!

[break_the_stars]

Great job! I'm glad you figured out the Regina Spektor songs - I thought more people were going to pick up on those, but apparently not. :X And Cobra Starship! :D

It's fun - it was weird to compile at first. Haha I looked up a bunch of lyrics, pulled out excerpts and made a big msword doc out of it. And then eliminated more from there as I went along. It gave a cool result though. It seems for the most part, really surprisingly coherent.... even thought it's 21 different songs. Haha.
