vivo per lei, la musica!

All right, everyone - it's almost the last day of the month, which means Fahye Downloads Like Crazy Because The Limit Gets Reset Soon.

So.

If you have the time and YouSendIt is obliging, I am humbly requesting:

1) A song that makes you happy whenever you hear it
2) A song that gets stuck in your head and causes you to break into song at embarrassing moments
3) A song that is your current stick-on-repeat-for-hours favourite

Or anything else you feel like gifting me with :D

Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] lunamystic (again), [livejournal.com profile] freeformchick and [livejournal.com profile] cyrulean! When I finish my current project I will write you all the drabble-fic-thing of your desiring, so leave comments here.

I've finished The House of God by Samuel Shem and somehow I still want to do medicine. My parents made me buy and read it as a kind of trial. I can't really describe it as a book; that said, of course I'm going to try. It's sort of like being let into someone's nightmare, horror alternating with pornography and brief flashes of amazement. Something from the subconscious, characters larger than life and the feeling that the only reason you're not taking it seriously is because if you did then you'd go just as mad as the narrator. It's raw. Utterly human, purely cynical with occasional streaks of compassion. Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but somehow a book about the filthy degrading work of an intern and the way a world can close in on itself and become unreal manages to spill over with clever language and imagery too stark to be lovely but very, very good.

Read it.

'Cos you haven't had enough of my shtick? ;D

1) Weird Al Y.: Ugly Girl (http://s24.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=25H2T12M4JW6B3BCATLWO65AXG). To the tune of, famously, Barbie Girl.
2) School House Rock: Telegraph Line (http://s24.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3NMWEZYROHCSI0U1LKK3MR32R0). There's a telegram for you, sir, better read it on the spot. It says your hand is near a stove that's very very hot! The results can be quite painful, and there's no time to thi-i-ink . . . oh, NO. WHY.
3) MC Solaar: Hijo de Africa (http://s24.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=08YOOCS0YQM3C2P4D0U6P5DLP3). I'll convert you eventually.

*clicky*

MY AIM IS DEAD. DEAD AS MY MOTIVATION. I CLICK ON THE SHORTCUTS AND NOTHING HAPPENS WHATSOEVER.

What! I like MC Solaar. I get Today Is A Good Day stuck in my head all the time, although mostly I just hum and bop.

That icon is too pretty.

In Soviet Russia, that icon wants you!

That's why there is: MSN. Also that new-fangled Google thang.

MC Solaar is FAST; it's near impossible to sing along. It used to be kind of a status thing in my French class that exists no more. 'It' being how much MC Solaar you could rap a tempo. Not easy!

One day, I will be told where that whole Soviet Russia thing comes from. I never know these things! It took me weeks to find out what the fuck a did-a-chuck was.

Eh. I just sort of sing the chorus, which is nice and easy.

These really all work in every category, but I shall post them where they currently fit best.

1) Eisley - "Laughing City" (http://s58.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=03A9VSKQTDCGV29KH6278NCYSI)
2) DeVotchka - "How it Ends" (http://s58.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1MXFKYAEUZ1S10RK9SQVRU21HI). This is form the Everything is Illuminated trailer.
3) Lost (Score) - Do No Harm (http://s58.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3PKWOK8YP2F241GXJPIO94BO10). So this is pretty much the song I have on repeat for hours on end. It's the song that played after Boone died and Jack had to tell Shannon. It still sometimes makes me want to cry. Oh, and according to iTunes, I've played it 1,083 times. Just a fun fact.

Thank you. Ooh, drabble-fic-thing! *frolics* Erm... anything with Lucifer, Adam and the Trebonds? :D

I shall root around my playlist immediately. *hunts*

[identity profile] not-in-denial.livejournal.com 2005-09-30 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
A song that gets stuck in my head and causes me to break into song and embarrassing moments: "Good Time" (http://s17.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2COM5YYPC1AF91BQA0ITEEZL39) by Leroy Williams. Got stuck in everyone's head from Scrubs and now continues its terror through my playlist :D

As for the other two options, they're too hard, so I'm just going to give you some songs that I like, okie? :D

Blutengel - "Black Roses (Opposite Sex Version)" (http://s9.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=14DE11IIF4HLL2VGGH07569KFB)

John Williams - "Battle of the Heroes" (http://s4.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0L022LQZKF1Y31PXGNFL5Q52XT) (yes, I'm a bad person I know.)

Rammstein - "Morgenstern" (http://s7.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2AVO10JC205GB3OOZL77SQDR4V)

YSI is only being semi-cooperative tonight. :/ However, since we are working on a deadline here...

Matthew Good - Avalanche (http://s63.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=031DAE998GNSX1XXWANYJOAGWD)

This would be #3, by the way. :D
