  • Name That Tune: Female Vocalists

    2007年 11月 13日, 6:02 作者:jadedingenue

    Note: I didn't do the usual "shuffle and post the first line" thing going around. I handpicked the songs and the lyrics could be from anywhere within them. More fun that way, I think!

    Remember: Using search engines is cheating!

    Have fun!


    1. I've had bad dreams, so bad I threw my pillow away Angel

    2. Patron Saint of nothing

    3. Red is the color of memory Dying Breed

    4. I'd rather eat my soup with a fork Poem to a Horse

    5. I am checking my face in the back of a spoon Geek Love

    6. Tea time at Damascus computer cafe

    7. Snow White is doing dishes again Fairytale

    8. I'm the only one who knows that Disneyland's about to close Red Vines

    9. I know black folks real well cause I watch me some Dave Chapelle Woke Up Hwite

    10. It smelled like cheap perfume and it didn't smell like you Everything Back But You

    11. Feel like I'm countin' the raindrops in a hurricane 7 Days

    12. I'll give you one more chance to try and knock me down again

    I have pilfered this from an unsuspecting last.fmer and adapted it to suit myself, cos I'm like that! But then he had pilfered it from another unsuspecting last.fmer.. So I say pilfer away guys, I deserves it!

    Dunno if anyone will ever read it, or care, but I had fun so it's all chocolate sauce.. :-)

    Name your top 10 most played bands on Last.fm..

    1 Regina Spektor
    2 Josh Ritter
    3 The Dresden Dolls
    4 Elliott Smith
    5 Ani Difranco
    6 Duke Special
    7 The Magnetic Fields
    8 HEM
    9 Cowboy Junkies
    10 The Postal Service

    And then answer 13 questions about them..

    1. What was the first song you heard of 6?
    I think it might have been Some Things Make Your Soul Feel Clean, or possibly Portrait. It was at a gig- he hooked me right out of a conversation, and I was glued

    2. What is your favourite lyric that 5 has sung?
    You guys have heard of Ani, right? Her lyrics are stories. I couldn’t possibly pick one but I do really like the lyrics to Fuel, an excerpt being:
  • ok . lets try this again. guess from lyrics.

    ./Step 1: Open up whatever MP3 program you use and add every song in your collection.
    Step 2: Put it on random.
    Step 3: Post the first (two) line(s) from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarassing the song. (if it's instrumental or contains less than 20 words - skip it!)
    Step 4: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
    Step 5: Cross out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
    Step 6: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

  • 'Educated Guess' by Ani DiFranco

    MY RATE: 4.5/5

    Well... Everyone has said that Ani Difranco is not the same... And I agree with it, many people has said that she's not as good as she used to be and basically they say that 'Educated Guess' doesn't worth your money. Well... It's true, Ani is not the same, well, after about 25 albums the woman has to change!. Wouldn't you be bored hearing the same old Ani still writing things as 'Both Hands' or something like that?... Well.. I would, I don't know your opinion...

    In fact, this CD grows on you after you let it grow... It's so intimate, depressive, lonely and introverted, like when you feel you are in a deep deep hole full of love-hate/marriage/divorce and other feelings very mixed up. Obviously Ani is very bothered by her recent divorce, and basically that's the topic of the whole album.

    The vocal tracks in this album might not be her best - Like comparing 'The True Story Of What Was' to 'Fuel'... 'Story' lacks of many elements…
