waking dreams

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line (unless the first line reveals the song title) from the first 30 songs that play, no matter how embarassing. Skip the instrumental-only pieces (non-English too if you want).
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and title correctly. (If it's a cover, the original artist is okay, and vice-versa.)
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like this game, post your own!

( be warned, I have very eclectic taste in music... )

"You're Beautiful" by James Blunt.

It's just... STUPID. Every time I hear it I just want to scream OK, WE GET IT, YOU'RE A LOSER WHO CAN'T TALK TO GIRLS, NOW STFU at him.


(FYI, "Love Story" by Taylor Swift is a very, very close second, because a) it is, in one sense, the musical equivalent of Twilight and b) there is at least one line in that song that makes absolutely no sense and trust me, I've thought about it.)

... that could have turned out worse...

Basically, I'm bored. So I opened up iTunes, and made a new playlist. Most of my playlists are mood-based, but not this one.

This playlist is a selection of songs that, for some reason, remind me of one (or more) Doctor Who characters.

( May the music begin.... )

If anyone has suggestions for tracks to add to the list... let me know!
