riicchan - music memes!
1) Have your music library ready.
2) Choose one song from your music library whose title starts with the first letter (or number) of your screen name.
3) Repeat this process with each successive letter (or number) in your screen name until you run out of letters (or numbers).
4) Post up your results.
5) BONUS POINTS: Add the line around the 1:10 mark of at least five songs.
R - Road to Joy by Bright Eyes - I read the body count out of the paper and now it's written all over my face.
I - I Feel Fantastic by Jonathan Coulton - The phone is ringing when I get to my desk. What was a stinging's now a sharp pain in my chest, so I take a Calminex and just chill... and then it's time for lunch again.
N - No Sensitivity by Jimmy Eat World - Cry if you want, the return of no sensitivity, you don't have to scream to say something that you honestly mean.
N - New Born by Muse - When you've seen, seen too much, too young, young, soulless is everywhere.
I - Independence Day by Elliott Smith - it's instrumental at 1:10, but the closest line after that is this: I saw you caught between all the people out making the scene and a bright ideal tomorrow.
A - Always New Depths by Bloc Party - this one's also instrumental at 1:10, and its closest line after is: Summertime has come and gone, all used up with wishful thinking.

1.) Put your mp3 player on random.
2.) Post a line from the first 32 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing it may be!
3.) Let everyone guess what song and artist the lines come from.
4.) The person who guesses the most on the list gets one freesketch ficlet.
I've done this before completely random, but you know, it loses some of its joy when you don't recognize songs from your own library, so I'm only putting down ones I'd have a shot at recognizing. The embarrassing song part still exists, though. Sadly.

10. Catch the curve of your leather heel before he blacks out.
11. Let's strip you down so we can see your old scars. Now you're gonna feel it, now you're gonna feel it.

13. Boy, one day you'll be a man. Oh girl, he'll help you understand.
14. I'll take your invitation. You take all of me.
15. I'm sitting, I'm standing, I'm thinking, I'm thinking.
