[prismakaos]

This is sort of like a meme, except that I don't want to go tracking through everybody's lj, so, like, just answer it in the comments... Although it does say "song," feel free to substitute "album" if you'd like.

1. What's the song you can't stop playing right now?
2. All time favorite?
3. One for good measure.
4. A song that reminds you of revolution?
5. An endlessly annoying or retarded song?
6. Something you can groove to?
7. Song with your favorite lyrics?
8. Gimmie a song that makes you hot?
9. A song that you (want to) play at work when your boss is being annoying?
10. Driving-around-in-car song!
11. Something you can frag to?
12. It's 2am and you've got to get a problem set/paper done. What're you listening to?
13. Makes you happy?

Right, well. Please answer, since i do want new music...

In other news.... I have a plan for the next OSE! YES! it will happen. I'm thinking "OSE: Ordinary Sweetness Event"! The theme is desserts! The dress is formal! The event is ironically extravagant! The time is TBD! Let me know what you think of that as well...ie, give me days/opinions of theme.

I believe that the 500 Miles song is by the Proclaimers. At least, assuming my copy is the original version, and assuming that we're talking about the same song.

[faerieloch.livejournal.com]

I think you're right. :) Thanks. :)

Well, you mentioned knowledge of my eclectic taste, so I'm answering with "no holds barred" - be warned. Though your questions might not all lend themselves to the truly weird parts of my collection. :)

1. What's the song you can't stop playing right now?
Gotta Knock a Little Harder (Cowboy Bebop movie)

2. All time favorite?
Yeah, RIGHT. I can't even think of narrowing it to like, 20 favorites... or even really favorite artists… I mean, stuff from Splashdown, Garbage, various RPGs, Move, Aiko, TMBG, classical stuff, jazz stuff, Bowie stuff... this is just silly, look at my facebook profile or something... which isn't even complete... agh.

3. One for good measure.
Like, a song, for good measure? Stress by Jim's Big Ego... why not.

4. A song that reminds you of revolution?
Heh.... Chopin's Revolutionary Etude? :)

5. An endlessly annoying or retarded song?
Drop it Like It's Hot - ugh.

6. Something you can groove to?
Stereo Sushi or Lemon Jelly. Duvet (Boa).

7. Song with your favorite lyrics?
Ugh. Do you actually have answers to your own questions? That seems nutty to me. I mean, I can think of good ones, but all-time favorite lyrics? Also impossible. I mean, Procreation Chick, Karma Slave, Galileo, Cheap and Evil Girl, It's the End of the World as We Know It, Ordinary World, Only Happy When it Rains, When I Grow Up, a lot of other Garbage and Splashdown songs, uhhh.... She's on Time... Let it Be... Blackbird...

8. Gimmie a song that makes you hot?
Let's Get it On. ;)

9. A song that you (want to) play at work when your boss is being annoying?
You Don't Know (RBF) or Don't Ask Me (ok go)

10. Driving-around-in-car song!
Anything by Move (esp. Drivin' Through the Night)... the staunton lick... I have weird taste in driving music, admittedly, for I am a racer. Eurobeat crops up a lot.

11. Something you can frag to?
Anything by Beatallica, Lost in Space (Apollo 440)... really, I just let random go when I'm gaming, most of the time.

12. It's 2am and you've got to get a problem set/paper done. What're you listening to?
Final Fantasy VII piano collection. Especially "Descendent of Shinobi".

13. Makes you happy?
I Just Can't Wait To Be King, Biaxident (Liquid Tension Experiment), Oye Como Va, Iron Man (Cardigans, not the original), Animaniacs music, TMBG stuff, Wake Your Love (Move), Procreation Chick (Splashdown), Raffi! Most stuff by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes... stuff by the Swingle Singers... the Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra. Prozzäk. DaVinci’s Notebook. Morning Musume.






As for OSE, I am quite interested, but I do not consume dessert foods... yeah. So that's kind of a problem for me. :)

[semer.livejournal.com]

Oh, and somewhere in there, Richard Cheese should have gone. Things I can groove to and things that make me happy. Richard Cheese = massive ownage.

[prismakaos.livejournal.com]

1. motorhead - louie, louie / ladytron - seventeen
2. bon jovi - something to believe in / robert plant - S S S & Q
3. led zeppelin - yallah
4. guns and roses - don't damn me
5. snoop/pharell - drop it like it's hot / anything by britney
6. splashdown - karma slave / A3 - strobe life
7. boc - veteren of the psychic wars / guns 'n roses - welcome to the jungle
8. salt 'n' pepa - sexy noises turn me on / marvin gaye and someone else - sexual healing (rmx)
9. Bad Days - Flaming Lips
10. tweet - oops, oh my / massive attack - mezzanine
11. prodigy - minefields / don't fear the reaper - apollo 440
12. tweaker - 2am wakeup call (worse than yesterday/sleepwalking away) / batman forever soundtrack
13. boc - godzilla / frank sinatra - fly me to the moon

and i'm sure the ose will be extended to not so much only being desserty-type things... in some cultures, salads are considered after dinner things, so maybe we'll just throw in some cheese and fruit, etc. but the main focus will be sweetness things.

1. Eternal Harvest, but damn my finger unable to play anything more complex than C major on the piano...
2. Oh shit this is a tough one... Prelude from FFXI or The Black Gate opens? The Black Gate Opens (RotK)
3. Deus Ex Theme
4. Rome: Total War Intro Music
5. The song with the weird "hip-hop" instrument that blares high and low, sounds like some sort of car siren. I hear it all over the place, it's very annoying.
6. Wind Theme, Chrono Trigger
7. Arg... I don't like lyrics in my music. One Winged Angel would be fine if it wasn't for music that sounds like it came straight from the circus, so I'd go for the excellent esperanto in FFXI opening theme.
8. Ewww... hot songs are icky.
9. Concerning Hobbits, FotR
10. Savage Garden album. It's not good, but it's the only thing my sisters play in the car.
11. Anything with tempo > 160 bpm (yes, that includes classical music, and I've fragged to fast Mozart. It's an awesome experience, try it some time. Nothing like blowing something apart as the scales fly up)
12. Terra, FFVI OST
13. PEACEFUL DAYS, kLuTz-arranged from Chrono Trigger. Just awesome. Brightens anyone's day.

[spamchang.livejournal.com]

Montgomery Gentry - Gone

2. All time favorite?

3. One for good measure.
Gershwin - Rhapsody in Blue
Pachabel - Canon
Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries
Metallica - Enter Sandman
Rob D - Clubbed to Death
(sorry, can't count)

4. A song that reminds you of revolution?
Todd Ganovski - Breathe Prophecy

7. Song with your favorite lyrics?
Bon Jovi - Livin' on a Prayer

8. Gimmie a song that makes you hot?
Freak Nasty - Da Dip

9. A song that you (want to) play at work when your boss is being annoying?
Anything loud, classical, or both. Holst - Mars, a Mozart or Verdi Requiem, Linkin Park, Evanescence, Metallica, general anger music, etc.

10. Driving-around-in-car song!
The Roots ft Cody ChesnuTT - The Seed (2.0) [extended mix]

11. Something you can frag to?
Medium volume, intense music. Too loud distracts from the audio cues you can pick up :) Maybe a techno james bond remix, or metallica - enter sandman, or the default game soundtrack.

12. It's 2am and you've got to get a problem set/paper done. What're you listening to?
Late night classical music from 102.1FM KDFC (yes i'm back on my classical kick)

Kingdom Hearts OST - Hikari Orchestral Instrumental Version
