haha so you don't have to be lame as I was but Im a lyrics person..
If you're wondering the point of asking all these question then uhm..me too. I'm avoiding hw.

What song describes how your life is currently?
Possibly a less dramatic/depressing version of Everyday is Exactly the Same (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqXmaFPn604&feature=related)

What song describes how you feel about yourself currently?
I'm finally dandy with the me inside; one look in the mirror and im tickled pink, I dont give a hoot about what you think (http://youtube.com/watch?v=muP9eH2p2PI&feature=related)

What song would you really love to be written about you?
As a whole, I think Stolen (http://youtube.com/watch?v=epHN4uSHox0) is about one of the sweetest songs ive ever heard.. ohoh and also Set On You (http://youtube.com/watch?v=bnCD32l_wa4&feature=related) awwwwwwhhh. and as for that particular video, I loved The Invisible..

Name a song that describes your ex.
I will no longer be disciplined by the frustrations of an insecure man, and while I kissed your face you know I will no longer apologize for other peoples mistakes. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5LGGOZD7Yz0&feature=related) (my past is mine to keep, who are you to question me??)

Name a song that describes how you feel about your current relationship/relationships in general.
I have nothing to be specific to, but I dont have to be since it seems to always end the same way. With a lot of questions and utter insecurity (http://youtube.com/watch?v=lzJT2MVmwwU)

If you could confess something, what would it be?
Haha so I do really have the perfect song and the worst of confessions, but Im not sure why I'd sincerely answer this question in public..so I threw in the song under another question. you can guess but i might not answer.

Do you have any words of wisdom?
Love is not a victory march. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsa_xWLOghg)

I'd really like to Stand Up (http://youtube.com/watch?v=L8xTOadn1n0&feature=related).

Describe something you don't like about yourself.
This part of me wont go away. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=CHfbXifI4Fc)

Describe something others love you for.
haha I cant think of one. which is not even really a self-esteem thing because right now I like me, I just dont expect anybody else to.

What words could totally convince you to love someone?
I'd really love to be the northern lights. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=Bm3lWq4s5-U) "And they try and they try but everything that they do is a ghost of a trace of a pale imitation of you."

What are the worst words to hear from a loved one?
I'm sorry. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=YZDF3IjcxpM) But I like to think Im not that pathetic...usually :smallfrown:

What do you plan on doing with your life?
I would be happy with all I've done in my life if I've truly helped anywhere that wasn't camoflauged in gold (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5osTBS2_g0g)

Summer:
Cliche but, hell, schools out (http://youtube.com/watch?v=E4ifcNW74wY)

Winter:
For more than just the fact that it's called my december (http://youtube.com/watch?v=xVsiZPsSVyM), basically encompasses all my feelings during the winter-time. lol and no, I dont have SAD or anything

Your first bf/gf:
Everyone knows that you're my favorite boy (http://youtube.com/watch?v=WHyqMQMhvH4) but some things in life are just not meant to be; im not meant for you and you're not meant for me

Your entire life:
Im on a rollercoaster, but im on my feet. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=2tjM7v7VOpU&feature=related)

A song that describes how I feel right now... let's see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEbgB6X6S5c

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say it clear,
I'll state my case, of which Im certain.

I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and every highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way

Regrets, I've had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way!

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it MY WAAAAAAY!

I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my waaaaaay

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows... I took the blows -
And did it MY WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Rat Pack for life :smallcool:

What the heck, I'll take a crack at it.
CAUTION: A lot of the music I listen to will have strong language in it.


A song that describes how my life is currently:
Trying To Find A Balance (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igNDd2G7Y0A) by Atmosphere is a pretty good hit here.
In the days of kings & queens I was a jester, they treat me like a god, oh they treat me like a leper.

A Song that describes how I feel about myself currently:
This one is hard, but I'd say something like Godlovesugly (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXSjWfbFhX0) again by Atmosphere. I wear these scars like the rings on a pimp. I live life like the captain of a sinking ship. The one thing that I can guarantee I'm like a stepping razor, I suggest you stay fair with me.

What song would I like to have had written about me?
Most likely Big Bang (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vtklwuj0rM) by Aesop Rock. I wanna be a big bang. Gotta be. Never bottle me up in a probably.

A song about an ex? This should be rough, considering i've been married for 4 years now... hmmm....
I'll go with The Gentle Art of Making Enemies (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJAX_JSe9Wk) by Faith No More
And I deserve a reward, cause I'm the best .... you've ever had.

A song that describes my current relationship?
Still Crazy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46bkXgxb66E) by Paul Simon.

If I could confess something, what would it be?
In all honesty, I don't hide anything from anyone. I'm generally far too frank about everything, even to a fault, and I can't think of a song that would allow me to confess something, except, possibly that I'm the Man In The Box (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFWkPVHKwCY). Won't you come & save me? Save me....

Word of wisdom... this one is easy...
Kids, if you really want to (rhymes-with-miss) off your parents, buy real estate in an imaginary place... oh yes. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpP-8tJ-9Js)

What would I do to help the world?
I would teach them how to get Get Fly (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aOjZTBU2zE).

Something about me I don't like about myself?
most likely my Hockey Hair (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GTjYm004kM)

Something others love me for?
I have nothing I can put here, simply because I don't have a song that describes my positive attributes very well.

What words would convince me to love someone?
I'd go with I'm Yours (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkHTsc9PU2A).

Worst words to hear from a loved one?
Again, nothing to put here, really.

What do I plan on doing with my life?
Aesop Rock explains this best in 9 to 5er's Anthem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTGDn111U3E)

Summer? SO Easy:
Atmosphere - Sunshine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvY38j7JdCk)

Winter?
Counting Crows - A Long December (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNF1a-ZG1uc) (funny, I was just listening to this cd today)

First girlfriend? I love Atmosphere, he has a song for pretty much every occassion:
Number One (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QT97KZ8UBzc)

My entire life?
Gonna go with Atmosphere again (Big shock eh?) and Musical Chairs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RucHDCklbK8)

I see nothing has changed since my absence. Jae still posts the best topics. By the way--Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah is great. My other two favorites are Damien Rice's and Bono's.

What song describes how your life is currently?:
Insane by Damien Rice. Melody makes it so much better.

"Should I speak?
Should I bother shakin' hands?
Am I weak
If I leave it as it stands?
I've submerged,
And I surface with the blame,
I guess I'm no good,
I guess I'm insane.

Should I go
If she calls out my name?
If she bleeds
Should I wipe up the stain?
If I'm low
Can I drown in this rain?
Guess I'm no good,
Guess I'm insane.

And I hate when you say
That I never fight for your
'Cause sometimes you breathe
All over my skin
And you always end up
Closer than close
And that's when I give in."

What song describes how you feel about yourself currently?:
Lowside of the Road by Tom Waits. I kind of feel like I'm in a detective pulp, and the song fits.


"The dog won't bite if you beat him with a bone
She's so shy when she's talkin' on the phone
The ground rises up and starts to groan
I'm rollin' over to the lowside of the road..."

What song would you really like to be written about you?:
Bowl of Oranges by Bright Eyes. I'd rather have written a song for someone else, but that's a pretty good pick for that, too.


"So that's how I learned the lesson
That everyone's alone
And your eyes must do some raining
If you're ever gonna grow
When crying don't help, you can't compose yourself
It's best to compose a poem
An honest verse of longing
Or a simple song of hope

That's why I'm singing, baby, don't worry
Because now I've got your back
And every time you feel like crying
I'm gonna try to make you laugh
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad
Then we'll wait for it to pass
And I will keep you company
Through those days so long and black

We'll keep working on the problem
We know we'll never solve
Of love's uneven remainders
Our lives are fractions of a whole
But if the world could remain within a frame
Like a painting on a wall
Then I think we'd see the beauty then
And stand staring in awe

At our still lives posed
Like a bowl of oranges
Like a story told
By the fault lines and the soil."

Name a song that describes your ex:
Time Heals Everything.

Name a song that describes your current relationship/relationships in general:
Skullcrusher Mountain by Jonathan Coulton.


"I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
What's with all the screaming?
You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?"

If you could confess something, what would it be?:
Wrote my own song about that a little, actually. Very close friend of mine, love her to pieces, loved her to more pieces prior, but I'll always resent her for a particular thing she used to say to me.


"You told me it was better to feel nothing
Because you felt I felt for you too much
I told you there was something wrong with something
And then said some other such and such and such

So I worked away at dulling all the feeling
I had within my gray and tired heart
I convinced myself to love you was like stealing
So the whole process was doomed right from the start

My fickle muse
Throw off your shoes
It’s not ‘cause the ground is sacred
It’s ‘cause the ground is wet
While you’re burning old carnations
I’m waiting at the subway station
To get off between my dreams and my regrets

When I hit things now it isn’t out of anger
It’s ‘cause I’m curious if it’ll hurt
My mother told me not to talk to strangers
So when I talk to me I don’t listen to a word

I thought the prison that I’d made would free me
That my newfound apathy was for the best
But it only left me captive with the longing
That was gnawing at the insides of my chest

My fickle muse
Throw off your shoes
It’s not ‘cause the ground is sacred
It’s ‘cause it’s made of cake
But the frosting is too bitter
Moths are feeding on the glitter
And there’s nothing but my worthlessness to taste

I’m walking by myself now in the garden
Where all the bees and flowers are now dead
That saline drip is coming back to haunt you
It’s probably best if we just stayed in bed

My fickle muse
Throw off your shoes
It’s not ‘cause the ground is sacred
It’s ‘cause it isn’t there
Now that I’m done with my confession
I thought it prudent just to mention
Are you sad when I’m around or just don’t care?"

Do you have any words of wisdom?:
"It's not hard to grow when you know that you just don't know," from Cannonball by Damien Rice.

What are you going to do to help the world?:
I'm afraid my answer to that is this Tom Waits song--especially the last two lines. Not quite as much the first two, but they're there.


"If there's one thing you can say about mankind
There's nothing kind about man
You can drive out nature with a pitch fork
But it always comes roaring back again."

Describe something you don't like about yourself:
Psycho Killer by the Talking Heads.

Describe something others love you for:
I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen.

What words could totally convince you to love someone?:
First Day of my Life by Bright Eyes.


"So I thought I'd let you know
Yeah, these things take forever
I especially am slow,
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home."

What are the worst words to hear from a loved one?:
Someday You Will be Loved.

What do you plan on doing with your life?:
How I Go by Yellowcard.

Summer:
Education by Modest Mouse.


"Hardly education
All them books I didn't read
They just sat there on my shelf
Lookin' much smarter than me."

Winter:
As Time Goes By.

Your first girlfriend:
Cheers, Darlin' by Damien Rice.

Your entire life:
No Poetry by Gary Jules.


"'There's no poetry between us,'
Said the paper to the pen,
'And I get nothing for my troubles
But the ink beneath my skin,'
If your clothes are getting weary
And your soul's gone out of style
Blame the miracle mile
And the bottom of the ladder
Paint your eyes and hide the tatters
What's the matter, baby?"
