The MP3 Player Shuffle

Recommended Posts

Found on mog.com, a nice time waster for digital music players or computers so afflicted.

So, here's how it works:

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.).

2. Put it on shuffle.

3. Press play.

4. For every question, type the song that's playing.

5. When you go to a new question, press the next button.

6. Don't lie and try to pretend your cool...because none of us are

(<-personal note - i will ******* you not on a single one of these - itunes is freaky psychic, and i think i know at least two other people out there who are with me on this, namely my friend shitbird, dare i call him out on it. but seriously - itunes/ipods have this mysterious sense of both humor and soothsaying. like for example, just now, as i was writing the above while the second song was playing, when i pressed the button for the next question, the song that came up for me was the song that was leftover from the person before me in the spot i'd just answered. i think i am about to be visited by a spiritual force now. so on with the meme.)

* Waking Up: dancing diamonds - les baxter

* First Day At School: 80s fan - camera obscura

* Falling In Love: definite choice - 7 seconds

* Fight Song: the centre will hold - swan island

* Prom: cinderella, stay in my arms - vera lynn

* Life: sou preto nao tenho - from the brazilian version of the musical HAIR (i dont know what this means or what song this is so i can't determine what itunes is telling me)

* Mental Breakdown: impossible love - daniel johnston (he had a mental breakdown)

* Driving: believing is art - spoon

* Flashback: ne me quitte pas - jaques brel

* Wedding: boogaloo - keith mansfield orchestra

* Losing your virginity: world without love - del shannon

* Birth Of Child: ballade de melody nelson - serge gainsbourg

* Final Battle: crystalline green - goldfrapp

* Death Scene: don't forget - martha wainwright

I'll go first to see if MP3 players/programs even have OUIJA functions:

* Waking Up: "Ka Lei E" by The Peter Moon Band

* First Day At School: "Little Red Light" by Fountains of Wayne

* Falling In Love: "Mr. Postman" by The Carpenters

* Fight Song: "They Can't Take That Away From Me" by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong

* Breaking Up: "Kaleleonalani" by Pekelo

* Prom: "Hi'ilawe" by Sean Na'auao & Robi Kahakalau

* Life: "New Year's Day" by U2

* Mental Breakdown: "Impossible Anna" by John Cruz

* Driving: "Lover's Cross" by Jim Croce

* Flashback: "Lucky Me" by Great Big Sea

* Wedding: "We're All Alone" by Cecilio & Kapono

* Losing your virginity: "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac

* Birth Of Child: "Homeward Bound" by Simon & Garfunkel

* Final Battle: "(There'll Be) Peace In The Valley (For Me) by Elvis Presley

* Death Scene: "New York's Not My Home" by Jim Croce

* Funeral Song: "Devil's Dream" by Mark O'Connor

* End Credits: "Lady D'Arbanville" by Cat Stevens

:stars: I don't know what Pekelo's song is about, since neither the CD nor his website have lyrics. "Hi'ilawe" sort of fits, since it's a song about a Hula dancer, her lover, and the gossips who dog them. "Impossible Anna" is a bitter break up song.

Having Mark O'Connor playing a jig at a funeral is either genius or in bad taste. :couch:

Oops! you beat me to the punch!
