For instance, I seem to be convinced, deep down, that "Hear them roar/Watch them soar" should be followed by "Sit right down and cry" for some reason. My brain has also come up with a couple of rhymes in case the producers ever want to turn it into a <I>Robot Wars</I> type of show, like "Mighty machines/Pointy bitey machines" or "Mighty machines/Mean and fighty machines".Matthew Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01007497367844755093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9931308.post-81976282741199562202007-05-11T06:35:00.000-07:002007-05-11T06:35:00.000-07:00Thanks to Scrubs, whenever I hear "Africa" I hear ...Thanks to <I>Scrubs</I>, whenever I hear "Africa" I hear J.D. going "I bless the RAINS down in Africa... ba dun dun dundun dun DYEA nuh... ooh, mango body butter."

It's "I bless the rains down in Africa," not " I guess" or, as I used to sing it, "I'd test." Although personally, I think, "I'd test the rains down in Africa," makes for a way better love song, but anyway. <BR/><BR/>And thank you so much Doppelganger for pointing out the "look at my too-cool obscure playlist" phenomenon. I hate that! I just saw Toto, for godssakes, you're obviously not going to find much obscure music on my list. I'm just not cool enough, but even more importantly, I'm lazy.

This is going to be humiliating, and also awesome.<BR/><BR/>1. “Girlfriend” or whatever that new piece of shit Avril Lavigne song is. It gets in my head because I think of songs that I fucking hate and there it goes.<BR/>2. “Lips of an Angel” – Hinder. See Number 1 re: Songs I Hate.<BR/>3. “Call Me Al” – Paul Simon. This is my bounce in my chair song. I always feel happier when it’s playing.<BR/>4. “Before He Cheats” – Carrie Underwood. Don’t love this song, don’t hate it. It’s on the radio a lot.<BR/>5. “Never is Enough” – Barenaked Ladies. Huh, interesting. I thought, “What BNL song goes in?” and that was the very first thing to pop into my mind. I haven’t listened to that song in ages.<BR/>6. “For You” – BNL. Now I’m going to be on a BNL roll for a minute.<BR/>7. “Call and Answer” – BNL.<BR/>8. “Demons” – Guster. That was the first Guster song to come to mind. Love it.<BR/>9. “Manifest Destiny” – Guster. Again with the awesome.<BR/>10. “Either Way” – Guster. Go buy some Guster. Now.<BR/>11. “Winter” – Tori Amos. One of my top favorite songs by Tori or anyone else.<BR/>12. “Time After Time” – Cyndi Lauper and Sarah McLachlan. If you haven’t heard this version yet, it kicks ass.<BR/>13. “When You Come Back Down” – Nickel Creek. The mandolin rocks me out of my shoes. <BR/>14. “Man of Constant Sorrow” – Foggy Bottom Boys. Well that’s random and also excellent.<BR/>15. “Never Again” – Kelly Clarkson. I love her to a degree that embarrasses me.notanillusionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11950738178858717020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9931308.post-19543124146080982922007-05-10T12:54:00.000-07:002007-05-10T12:54:00.000-07:00My brain can only really handle one mental playlis...My brain can only really handle one mental playlist song at a time. Currently, it's the Zoom Zoom song they used to play during Mazda commercials. Not so interesting. Alright, let's see how many times I have to hit the random button on my iPod before I come to something shameful. My prediction: it'll happen two songs in. Here goes.<BR/><BR/>Oh, one. "Crunchy Granola Suite [Live]" - Neil Diamond. I honestly have no idea what that song is, but I'm ashamed all the same.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856187137331544258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9931308.post-22154740512251719192007-05-10T11:57:00.000-07:002007-05-10T11:57:00.000-07:00Oh, so embarrassing.
