Not to be outdone by -j

I listen to a lot of radio... a lot of radio...

some days it's the only thing that keeps me sane whilst my employer, my coworks, the golfers, and complete strangers make fun of me (LOTS OF LEAVES MADE IT OVER THE FENCE!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!! ***SOBSOBSOB***)

anyways...

The radio station I listen to is often quite hillarious... They have a weekly DnD report that makes me feel... well... I associate with it (especially the jokes about being a gnome)...

but ulimately, the reason I stick with the station I do is the songs they play... It's amazing how much some songs can really pick up the day, or make me a lot less bored (depending on the day, really) here's a selection of my favourites...

First off Muse -Supermasive Black Hole
favourite line "you're the queen of the superficial, but how long before you tell the truth?"

this song is a mixture of dark and falsetto with just the right mixture of catchy techno-esque sound which in my mind redeems muse from the trainwreck that is "starlight" (that song makes me gag and really turned me off muse for a while)



Next up is... umm... well... I couldnt find a proper video for it (cuz live performace + youtube = vomit) but here is Radiohead - Bodysnatchers... not even worth explaining why I like it since it doesnt shine in this video >.<

fave lyrics "I have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm trapped in this body and can't get out"



Next up is Rise Against - All the Good Left Undone

probibly the catchiest song (assides from the next one, but I'm getting ahead of myself) since it's the only one I can actually sing along with... I've always appreciated rise against and the contribution their songs have made to sonics play list, so here it is...

oh yeah... fave lyrics "I believe in angels, not the kind with wings, no not the kind with halos; the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place"



If you've ever seen me thrashing about like a retard for no apparent reason it's wither because I've tripped, fallen, and accidentally swalled a piece of orange that was on the ground... or I am "dancing" to this next song (no... not actually sancing... but the beat definately gets to me a little more than it should)...

The lyrics are retardidly cheesy, and the song has little to no value other than being the song that makes me squeal with girlish delight...

Beck - Timebomb

(fave lyric... well... for lack of a valid option... "tick tick tick")



Against Me - Thrash Unreal

I'm getting tired.. so... I like this song?

favorite lyrics: "they dont know a thing about redemption, they dont know a thing about recovery, some people just arent the type for marriage or a family"



Still sleepy, but wanna get one more song off...

Jimmy Eat World - Big Casino

fave lyrics (because I belt it out when I'm stuck on a machine all day at work) "I have one last wish, and it's from the heart, let me down easy"
(music video embedding disbaled)

OUTDONE.... oh its on now.

I've never taken the time to listen to it, but the Jimmy Eat World the lyrics in Big Casino, are really deep, and they're such great lyrics too.

I've actually liked most of their CD (since sonic played all of it over a couple of days when it was first released and a "first single" hadnt been chosen)...

scary, I know =P

You realize the CD is free-for-download from their website right? Pay what you feel, even $0.00. You'd prolly like their previous CD too, similar stuff...
