Flee! It's another survey!
Aug. 26th, 2001 11:30 pmActually, this one is kinda appropriate for me, seeing how I tend to quote song lyrics ad nauseum any way. ;)
1.) Are you male or female?
"And when you were born, they looked at you and said
What a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl…"
"What A Good Boy", Bare Naked Ladies Gordon
2.)Describe your neighbourhood
"I love a sunburnt country
A land of sweeping plains
Of rugged mountain ranges
Of drought and flooding rains…"
"A Sunburnt Country", Dorothy McKeller (actually a poem, but has been set to music)
"And a decent cup of coffee wouldn't go astray
And if I make tracks I might be tasting one today
You say living here's just fine
Each to his own, I for mine
I've just lost the one reason to hang around…"
"A Decent Cup Of Coffee", Weddings Parties Anything Riveresque
3.) How do you look?
"…Takes her chances, eyes wide open,
Big green eyes looking through me.
Met my match, she was pretty as a garden,
Gap-toothed, bright as a button.
So tiny curled up warm in bed,
Big green eyes looking through me."
"Met My Match", The Whitlams Undeniably
4.) If you could say something to the person you love, what would it be?
"I'm the one who reads your mind
Sees my life in your design
True companion by your side
I'll give you something
For when I'm not around
To make you smile
And if you think it then it must be true
If only I could make it through
Climb into my bed
Wherever you are…"
"Wherever You Are" Neil Finn One Nil
"We may never meet again
So shed your skin and let's get started.
And you will throw
Your arms around me…"
"Throw Your Arms Around Me", Hunters and Collectors (not sure of the album)
5.) Where do you wish you were right now?
"I've got a plan
Let's take off in the blue station wagon
And find the open road to salvation
Away from here.
I've got a plan
Change the patterns that I form a lot
Not try to be something that I'm not,
That I'm not.
I've got a better plan, this time it will work…"
"I've Got A Plan", My Friend The Chocolate Cake, Brood
6.) What would you say to your best friend?
"And if you make some strange mistake,
Fall down hard, break your neck,
Well I'll hang in there just right beside you…"
"Talk About Love", My Friend The Chocolate Cake Good Luck
"When I was younger, so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now those days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now that I've changed, I've found I've opened up the door.
Help me if you can I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round…"
"Help" The Beatles (not sure of the album)
7.) Any words of wisdom:
"Everybody needs some beauty,
Some reassurance…
And you can tell a lot about a place
By the way it treats its own
The way it treats its own deserters."
"The Deserters" David Bridie Act Of Free Choice
"And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring…
And love is not the easy thing…
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind.
And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong
Walk on, walk on
What you got they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on…
Stay safe tonight."
"Walk On" U2 All That You Can't Leave Behind
8.) What do you wish you were doing right now?:
"You see whenever I'm alone
I tend to brood
But when I'm out on my bike
It's a different mood
I leave my brain at home
Get up in the saddle
No hanging around
I don't diddle-daddle…
Pedal on, pedal on, pedal on for miles
Pedal on."
"The Acoustic Motorbike" Luka Bloom The Acoustic Motorbike
9.) What do you think of drugs and alcohol?:
"I'm a one drink dreamer
A one drink dreamer
But a ten or eleven drink clown."
"Ten Or Eleven Drink Clown", The Whitlams You Sound Like Louis Burdett EP
10.) If you could say one thing to your enemy, what would it be?:
"In the stories, that I've been reading
And repeating, over and over again
In that dead space, behind your pretty sky blue eyes
Wishful thinking, there's nothing there."
"Can't Find Love", My Friend The Chocolate Cake Good Luck
11.) What do you usually do on Friday nights?:
"…Hung around in places where nobody speaks
Got online to an Internet club
Played Trivial Pursuit with the Goddess of Love
And counted his imaginary friends, got up to ten
Lost count and went out to walk the streets
'Til God knows when."
"Imaginary Friends", The Lightning Seeds Dizzy Heights
12.) What do you think about school?:
"And we're flat on out backs
Taking the rest of the day off…"
"Rest Of The Day Off" Neil Finn One Nil
13.) How do you feel right now?:
"Now the task at hand, it's the life that we lead
It's the rent that we pay, It's the mouths that we feed.
It's not wrong to cry
But it's wrong to weep while life passes by.
I got the sun in my eyes
I got the wind in my face
I got the rain in my heart
But I'm falling in line, not falling apart."
"The Rain In My Heart" Weddings Parties Anything Kingtide
14.) Any closing words?:
"It's trust that brought me here
And trust will bring me home…"
"Sister", Indigo Girls Come On Now Social
