hey do this.
1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter. 2. List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter. 3. Post that to your journal with these instructions.
here's my contribution to the cause, I was assigned "N":
I'm going to resist the urge to list "Nigger With a Seizure" by Richard Pryor, although it was the first thing that came to mind. Here are the next five that came to mind (with links!):
"No Spill Blood" - Oingo Boingo
"The Night of the Trees" - The Young Knives
"Never Be Rude to an Arab" - Monty Python
"No Man's Land" - Sufjan Stevens
"The New Face of Zero and One" - The New Pornographers

07:26 pm - I put way too much time into this
I was assigned the letter F by bonitalydia for a music meme where I locate 10 songs that begin with that letter and explain why I chose it.
Comment if you want a letter. F was unusually difficult.
For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her Simon & Garfunkel: I played this song on the jukebox at the Edgewater Queen diner because 1.) its quite whimpy, 2.) its a predominantly black diner, and 3.) Paul didnt want me to. For the record, we also played some James Brown, The Hustle and Listen To The Band, an extremely obscure Monkees song. |
Fox Confessor Brings The Flood Neko Case: Neko Case is a hot talented redhead, what else needs to be said? |
Fly On The Wall XTC: A song of legend after its appearance in a Dr. Riffic commercial where Paul jumps out of Matts Celica into a bunch of soda cans. |
First Of The Gang To Die Morrissey: One of my dads favorite Morrissey songs... Morrissey has been playing it for 3 straight tours now so he must like it too. |
Farewell To John Denver Monty Python: You came on my pillow hwaaaaaagh. *cough* |
Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle Nirvana: There should be bonus points if the first two words of the song title BOTH begin with F. Picture of Kurt Cobain seconds before he shot himself on the left. |
Free Form Guitar Chicago: Just try to listen to this song all the way through
you cant do it. Another double F. |
Forever The Beach Boys: Made famous by Uncle Jesse on Full House, this song was originally written and performed by very dead Beach Boy, Dennis Wilson. |
Frying Pan Patkins Wangarang: Between my keyboards, Eds guitar and loud microphone stand movement, and Brians vocals, this is the stuff of legend. No drugs were used in the making of this song. Frying Pan Patkins is actually Jonathan Atkins, a flamboyant small black kid from our high school. |
Fired Ben Folds: Fond memories of singing this and other Ben Folds songs on the way to and from Rowan and the Deptford mall back in my college days
except Carrying Cathy, we werent allowed to play that song. Mother fuckerrrrr. |

be glad it's not taking me a year and a half to do this, only a few weeks.
List five songs that you are currently digging... it doesn't matter what genre they are from, whether they have words or even if they're any good but they must be songs you're really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artist and the song in your blog along with your five songs. Then tag five other people to see what they're listening to.
1) "Only To Other People" by The Cookies... extremely poorly recorded song, but it's annoyingly catchy. and sung by 3 black women in the early 1960's, whats not to love? 2) "Quicksand" by David Bowie... just a good song. 3) "Big Sur" by The Beach Boys... because I'm very lazy and don't change the CD in my car very often and it's the first song on the CD. 4) "At Last I Am Born" by Morrissey... probably one of the dumber songs on his new CD, but I've played most of the rest of the CD to death so much that this song still feels more fresh. 5) "Redemption" by Blood Sweat & Tears... even though Paul hates the voice of David Clayton-Thomas, the horns and drums are rather rocking in this tune.
All this said, I tag.. uh.. Paul Huntington, Nick Kimminau, Nikki Cochran, Kaity Cochran, and Kurt Magnum

You Are 8% Democrat
|

If you have anything in common with the Democrat party, it's by sheer chance.
You're a staunch conservative, and nothing is going to change that!
|
For the record... the two answers which contributed to the 8% were:
"Gay people are fabulous - you love them." and "Even if you believe in God, you're not particularly religious."
You Are 60% Republican
|

You aren't a full fledged Republican yet, but it's probably the party that fits you best.
You probably consider yourself an independent Republican. You usually support the party, but you also think for yourself!

04:53 am - "Hawks get Havlat in 3 way"
But seriously... I'm in London, England for those of you that don't know yet! And boy have I been taking the city by storm. A storm that has trouble walking through non-turning turnstiles, but a storm nonetheless. For the purposes of this entry, the british monetary unit pound will be abbreviated as "lb." or "lbs." I weigh myself in money. I'm staying with Paul who is interning in parliament and it's been a pretty fun time. So far I've been to: Tower of London, various bridges, The National Art Museum, Buckingham Palace, Hamley's, Harrods, a malaysian restaurant, a couple pubs, the Odeon movie theatre, a grocery store, some public toilets, a McDonald's, a Starbucks, and probably other places. Oh and this egyptian statue that the british stole. That was a highlight. Have not yet peed in the Thames.
Random Thoughts/Observations:
The 1 lb. being a coin and not papermoney is unbelievably annoying. As most of you know, I abhor metal currency. A pocket full of 1 lb. coins is a nightmare! So for the first days of the trip I only bought things with paper money causing me to receive an insane amount of change. Wonderful. Then at the Odeon movie theatre, the cashier inexplicably gives me a metric ton of change of various denominations. Rage. I'm just gonna dump it on the desk at the Travelex in Philly when I get back and let them sort out it's worth.
The way the woman's voice on the tube speaker system says "Willesden Green" is amazing.
British women I think are quite attractive. Pale skin, very little makeup... I'm in heaven! Steve Jordan would cry. I still have not met the Orbit gum commercial girl.
TV is pretty odd. Although they have this word descrambling show which was awesome. Except for the part where they solve math problems. Americans don't like math unless they're Asians. Lot's of those over here, it's like Japan didn't fight the British in World War II or something. Go figure.
The service employees at various stores talk unusually quitely it seems to me. I'm always having to strain to hear what people are saying to me. I don't think it's the accent, they just talk like shy mice on ambien. That or my hearing is really starting to go. I just kind've guess what they're telling me and sometimes get it wrong, sometimes get it right.
More to come, stay tuned...

<td align="center">You are a shy flirt

You are more inclined to leave anonymous love notes for your crush then go up and ask them out. You prefer to leave the ball in their court and see where it takes you. A lot of people find this style romantic, but sometimes you are going to have to work up the nerve and ask your crush out, because if your crush is shy too, you may both like each other and never know.
