Thanks, guys. <3

In response to my desperate plea for MEMES, manic_subbie foolishly asked me for my Top 5 songs to Angst To. So. Hahaha, fools, it's the ATTACK OF THE GIRL BANDS! In no order:

1. Brooke Fraser, "Better."
Tried all the things they told me to do
Tried to close up the wounds left open by you
And if I seem awful distrusting I am
You said you wouldn't do it again,
You said we wouldn't do it again...
... you're not helping yourself by hurting me.

2. Michelle Branch, "Goodbye to You."
And it hurts to want everything
And nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you, but I'm not giving up this time...

3. Jewel, "You Were Meant for Me."
Put on my PJs, and hop into bed
I'm half alive, but I feel mostly dead
I try to tell myself it'll all be alright
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight...

4. Bic Runga, "Making a Scene"
Making a scene
I'm coming clean
Thought I'd like to put you in your place
My drink in your face
Wouldn't look so bad
Now I'll live this down
Let me know if I'm talking much too loud
Drawing a crowd
I don't mind if you don't mind.

5. Simon and Garfunkel, "My Little Town."
In my little town, I never meant nothing
I was just my father's son.
Saving my money, dreaming of glory
Twitching like a finger on the trigger of a gun.

Honourable mentions: Dido, "Isobel," Letters to Cleo, "Because of You," Beth Hart, "LA Song," Simon and Garfunkel, "I am a Rock," "Homeward Bound," Bic Runga, "Ne Me Quitte Pas," "Delight," "Suddenly Strange", Les Miserables, "Stars," "On My Own" Dashboard Confessional, "Vindicated"... okay, stopping now that I've revealed my taste to be so SHITE. Usually it's much better, I swear.

And because that's depressing: 5 Top Songs to be Crushing/In Love to (delete whichever is less applicable.)

1. Katrina and the Waves, "Walking on Sunshine."
I used to think maybe you loved me
Now I know that it's true

2. Bic Runga, "Sway"
I'm practising your name
So I can say it to your face
it doesn't seem right
To look you in the eye,
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth.

3. Bic Runga, "Close the Door, Put Out the Light."
Talk some more
Till I grow tired don't leave
Till you know that I'm sleepin'
Don't say goodnight
Just slide away into the dark
And take with you my heart

4. Goldenhorse, "Maybe Tomorrow"
All of your sorrow
Maybe tomorrow will fade away
In the air.
Trying to please me
Making it easy...

5. Letters to Cleo "I Want You to Want Me"
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I love you to love me

6. Tom and Jerry, "Dancing Wild"
Dancing Wild, we'll do the applejack
Drop your shoes in the corner till we get back...
there's only one thing more that you should know
I love you so
Dancing wild with me.

Honourable mentions: Tom&Jerry, "Hey Schoolgirl," Cat Stevens, "Can't Keep it In," Barenaked Ladies, "One Week,"

and Top 5 Songs to Party To

1. The Killers, "Somebody Told Me"
Somebody told me
That you had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in february of last year

2. Goldenhorse, "Cool Pants"
Yeah he looks good,
And he looks fine
And in, and in his step and stare
Well he's got the time.

3. TATU, "All the things she said"
All the things she said,
All the things she said,
running through my head,
running through my head

4. Steps, "5,6,7,8"
my boot-scootin' baby
is driving me crazy
My obsession from a Western,
my dance floor date
My Rodeo Romeo, my cowboy god
from head to toe
Wanna make you mine, gotta get in line
5,6,7,8!

5. Jet, "Are you gonna me by girl?"
Well, so 1,2,3, take my hand and come with me
because you look so fine
and i really wanna make you mine.
I say you look so fine
that I really wanna make you mine.
Oh, 4,5,6 c'mon and get your kicks
now you dont need that money
with a face like that, do ya.

Honourable mentions: Will Smith, "Switch," Dar Williams, "As Cool as I Am," Moulin Rouge "Lady Marmalade," ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, "Rewrite", The Killers, "Mr Brightside"

... yeah, I'm a total music pleb. Well, not, I really do honestly have a lot of really good music on my playlist, I'm just kind of in a shite music mood lately. :D

Anyway. Pass it on, do the meme! :P
