rodneyscatI've worked a lot lately and now I'm too tired to reply/comment etc. I'll have tomorrow afternoon off, so I've got good hope I can catch up with LJ and email tomorrow evening, since I'm not too far behind.
If anyone feels like guessing the songs to these first lines, be my guest.
These were the first 20 songs that popped up when I put my playlist on shuffle:
Now with the answers (and an lj-cut...)
1. Anticipation has the habit to set you up
(Arctic Monkeys - View from the afternoon)
2. Oh, I've been working a week, I'm tired
(Hard-Fi - Living for the weekend)
3. Sally was a fifteen year old girl from Nebraska
(Gogol Bordello - Sally)
4. I feel so extraordinary, something's got a hold on me
(New Order - True Faith)
5. Because we can, can, can
(Fat boy slim - Because we can)
6. What were you thinking, I guess I'll never know
(Korn - Open up)
7. Shake down 1979
(Smashing Pumpkins - 1979)
8. Tattva, acintya bheda bheda tattva
(Kula Shaker - Tattva)
9. Oh nice, this is really a mash-up. Bonus points for getting both of them:
a. Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly
(Beatles - Come together)
b. Help me, I broke apart my insides
(NIN - Closer)
10. Wake up in the morning with a head like 'what ya done?'
(Scissor Sisters - Don't feel like dancing)
11. No sign of life pulsing through these ageing veins
(Badly drawn boy - Peak you reach)
12. You've got a great car, yeah, what's wrong with it today?
(Dandy Warhols - Bohemian like you)
13. Break me in, teach us to cheat and to lie, cover up what shouldn't be shared
(Muse - Citizen Erased)
14. Remember me when you're the one who's silver screened
(Placebo - Special needs)
15. Like anyone would be I am flattered by your fascination with me
(Alanis Morissette - Uninvited)
16. When I was a young boy I tried to listen, and I wanna feel like that
(Coldplay - White shadows)
17. It's a godawful small affair
(David Bowie - Life on mars)
18. There's spiders in your room, but there always will be
(Editors - Spiders)
19. Distant flickering, greener scenery, this weather's bringing it all back again
(Imogen Heap - Headlock)
20. She's taking her time making up the reasons, to justify all the hurt inside
(Savage Garden - To the moon and back)
[edit] I'm not screening, because I'm going to assume you're not peeking, just as I'm assuming you're not googling. Right...?!

Date: 2008-06-02 09:02 am (UTC)You can be sure that the NIN song (which is called 'Closer') isn't in the playlist I use at work.
*rereads and laughs at myself*
I get that when I read my own feedback to particular fics sometimes, especially when I don't know the writer (very well). '...I especially loved the rimming...'. It really feels like I should at least formally introduce myself or something!
