Have got my headphones in today (as I try to write a digestible synopsis of the Financial Plan).
This is some of what I’ve been listening to.
Song title and artist please. No cheating, it’s no fun!
Just for this lifetime, you can be my past-timeI’m ready to bet it all, unless you don’t care at allIf it wasn’t for chip fat they’d be frozenJust give me something, I’ll take nothingWhat drives you on can drive you mad, a million lies to sell yourself is all you ever had- I don’t know no love songs, and I can’t sing the blues anymore
I had a mission, I could turn you right, a stupid mission, an illegal fightYou know I’m going to lose, and gambling’s for fools, but that’s the way I like it baby, I don’t want to live forever- I took this man’s love and put it on a shelf, and like a fool I thought I had it all to myself
If I seem edgy I want you to know, that I never meant to take it out on you- He’s laughing with another girl and playing with another heart
Why pamper life’s complexity when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?- It’s chewing at my bones and my brains, it’s working through the flesh that remains
- Get out of my life with your fuss and fight, I don’t want it
- I’m no King Kong, I may be hairy, but don’t get me wrong
I love you like a fat kid love cakeI haven’t been the same since my teenage lobotomy- Tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of ambition
- I’ve got the cultivating music that be captivating me
Always moving and going nowhere
Bonus Question:
You have a temper like my jealousy, too hot, too greedy
1. Spiller ft Sophie Ellis Bextor – Groovejet.
7. Cardigans – My Favourite Game (I think).
16. 50 Cent – Erm… can’t recall the title, is it something like ‘Seven Questions’?
17. Ash – Kung Fu.
I think I know 4, 8 and 12 bu my brain has stopped working…
5. Garbage – Stupid Girl ?
8. Motorhead – Ace of spades
Bonus question : Kate Bush – Wuthering Heights
Quick off the mark girlies – and most of them are right. You’re going to kick yourself over some of the others though.
Keep going!
4. Badly Drawn Boy – Pissing in the wind
the only other ones I knew have already been guessed! Great lyrics though…
Right, I’m going to start
editingthe ones that you’ve guessed correctly so it’s easier to see what’s left.2- Pharrell- Frontin’ (altho i actually knew it from the Jamie Cullum version)
20- Jimmy Ruffin- What Becomes of the Broken Hearted
14 is driving me crazy, i’m sure i know it!!
Yep, mine was the Jamie Cullum version too. Well done on # 20
12. The Smiths, This Charming Man
I knew you’d get that one!
But I told you – I am so ovah messers Morrisey and Marr…
aha i’ve got another one! 3- Kaiser Chiefs- I predict a riot.
Thankyou for keeping me occupied on an otherwise very boring afternoon at work!
Well done! Keep ‘em coming.
16 is Fiddy Cent’s 21 Questions.
Well done Dan – apologies for pedantry Holly.
By the way Holly, I think your dancing performance on Friday deserves an alcoholic beverage of choice.
Hahaha, no worries, I would probably be quite ashamed of myself if I knew the actual answer to the 50 Cent question. I’m no hip-hop hater but that mumbling eejit just ain’t worth the hype (‘In Da Club’ apart).
Dance!
10 is from Kill Bill… Santa Esmerelda? Or something.
A version of the song is on the Kill Bill soundtrack….. but it’s not the one that I was listening to.
5 : Garbage – Stupid Girl.
One of the first MP3s I downloaded from Napster, when such things weren’t frowned upon 😉
I believe I’ve already said this Max, and it has been unacknowledged even though it checks out 😦
5. Garbage – Stupid Girl
humm, on reading the comments, maybe not.. :-s
10 is the Animals’ (at least that’s the version I’m thinking of) Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood. Wouldn’t’ve got it without Mat’s help though. Ta.
Sorry Helen, yes #5 is Stupid Girl. Forgot to cross it out.
..and yes Dan, it is Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood, although my version was Nina Simone.
