if i get it all down on paper

[slumber]

• I have re-uploaded songs from my old anime soundtracks (and I'm sorry, guys, but I am so old school--no Bleach, PoT, or whatever else is new now for me. Instead I've got Gundam Wing, Fushigi Yuugi, and YuuYuu Hakusho or something. :|) and am listening to them currently. I love how I can still remember some of these lyrics despite, you know, not being Japanese. And BESIDES. They have Character Image Songs, in which characters angst about their life/love/feelings through songs sung by the guys who voiced them. I wish Harry Potter had that or something. :|
  
  
• Carnival yesterday. It was amazing, I was knocked every which way and turned upside down and this is quite possibly the first time I actually felt my stomach churn. Had to stop after a while, couldn't even go on the bump cars or eat some food because I might push my luck and throw up or something, lol, but I tried everything I was interested in and MAN, it was so cool.
  
  
• Mushroom soup + Nan = Love
  
  
• I am being asked to debate again, primarily because a lot of the old people aren't anymore and they "can't afford me to sit it out again", which is amusing because seniority does not make up for the fact that I haven't trained in ages and debate comes with plenty of issues I don't want, thanks very much.
  
  
• I had no idea there were so many songs used in The L Word, how the fuck do I get all of these? :\ I hate Limewire so much, I swear. It's either that or teh_music, which might or might not come up with something, only I'll need to put up a song for every one requested and I want quite a lot. I have soundtrack lists but the songs I want may or may not be there, I might as well go back through the first season and write down lyrics and google them. :| This is the tentative list of songs I managed to get were from the series, if anyone wants to see how fucked I am trying to get any of them:
  
  women who long love lust
  women who give
  this is the way
  the way that we live
  
  just a little loving early in the morning
  beats a cup of coffee for starting off the day
  
  paper paper obsolete
  how will you reach out to me
  i thought you asked me not to leave
  lonely lonely that is me
  
  here we are at the carnival
  lots to do at the carnival
  
  i am the it girl
  graduated from the finest school
  
  i got everything that a man could want
  i got more than i could ask for
  i don't have to run around
  i don't have to stay out all night
  she's some kind of wonderful
  
  finally
  right in front of my face
  that i just cannot hide it
  and brightened up my world
  in my heart i feel it
  i'm a special kind of girl
  the way i feel about you
  
  treat you right
  fever
  when you
  
  let's not talk about the other girl
  
  hit me with your best shot
  why don't you hit me with your best shot
  
  hey baby girl
  your hometown
  why are you dreaming
  why are you sleeping

• On fandom commentary, you know if you do things like faking your death just so the poor emo kids can be given inspiration and pick up the pieces of their lives because the way you dealt with your obviously-fake-so-people-can-figure-it-out sickness, you might as well stay dead and let them keep the inspiration instead of doing a resurrection and destroying everything people believed could be good in humanity. I'm just saying. It's stupid.
  
  
• Everyone should also try sleeping naked every once in a while. Or everyday.

I have The Vanishing.

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Haha, I know, I forgot to remove a couple of songs I already had off the list. You have also sent it to me in a fit of what I am certain is premonition that I will one day thank the dear Lord that at least that's one song less to look for.

[enderxenocide.livejournal.com]

OMG. Old school. Oh, the love. I completely agree, I love that you can sing along, and have NO IDEA what you're actually saying. I have so much love for Duo, Trowa, and Treize's image songs. I think I just love the concept, that they're singing songs from their character's POV, and most of them are not even trying to hide the subtext. Like, the lyrics from Duo's "Good Luck and Goodbye". Which Fushigi Yuugi songs do you have? I've been trying to get my hands on those for AGES, especially Tamahome, Tasuki, and Hotohori's. I have such a soft spot for Tamahome/Heero's nasal voice; he's so cute. And Hotohori/Treize's voice is sex.

But, you know, even if they did Harry Potter image songs or something like that, I don't think I could listen to them with a straight face. Have you read some of the translated lyrics? *dies* I think the fact that it's in Japanese, and those voice actors are GODS, makes it bearable.

Everyone should also try sleeping naked every once in a while.

I'll second that.

*g* I KNOW. Oh my god, I LOVE the subtext in those. I have a personal weak spot for Duo's and Wufei's singing, really, but CLOWN is such a sad song and Good Luck and Goodbye is love. :P I have four (and don't ask me why, I have no idea what I was thinking either) Fushigi Yuugi CDs: The FY Special, Best Vocal Collection, Character's Vocal Memories, and the OST. Under Best Vocal Collection I don't know which songs are Tamahome's and Hotohori's but I think I know which ones are Tasuki's (HE DUETS WITH CHICHIRI AND TOMOKAZU SEKI = LOVE):

Meccha Hajikite Gattsu Tobashite - Tasuki, Nuriko, and Chichiri and Tamahome, I think
Aoi Jiyuu, Shiroi Nozomi - Tasuki and Chichiri
Mizu-Kagami - Tasuki and Chichiri, I think

Under the OST and Character's Vocal Memories I have:

Sassouto Rou - Tamahome
Something Unnamed from Hotohori
Ai To Iu Na No Tatakai - Tamahome
Soshite, Yami no Saki Ni - Tamahome
Sadame no Hoshi - Hotohori
Boku no Uchuu ni Kimi Ga - Hotohori
Heart ni Kiraboshi Sakashi - Tasuki
Do=Be's Gayatte Kuru - Tasuki

I love Nuriko's and Chichiri's songs, actually, which are so much fun, as well as Yui's.

ANYWAY. Are any of these what you're looking for? I will upload for you if you like. :D

[jetsam-porridge.livejournal.com]

I have five or six of those songs, I think. :O

[slumber.livejournal.com]

Which? Seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeend. :D

[jetsam-porridge.livejournal.com]

Into My Arms - Nick Cave, Closer To Fine - Indigo Girls, The Weakness In Me - Joan Armatrading, but you've already got those! I have got All Star - Smash Mouth also, and I think one or two others but I can't remember. :| Will upload All Star for you tomorrow!

I slept naked once. I couldn't sleep, which led to other things, which led to Al enjoying himself immensely.

[lina-harrison.livejournal.com]

I love old anime songs! Evangelion, for example. And Fushigi Yuugi or GW is still fun to listen to.

Harry Potter image songs? Fancy that - Daniel R. singing "I don't want to die, I don't want to lie, I love you Dracooooo" *is being silly* Nevermind LOL
OR SNAPE! LMAO

Sleeping naked? Only once or twice. It was far too hot to sleep in any pjs. Teh summer of hell.

[longsunday.livejournal.com]

this is so annoying - there was at least 5 tracks there that i had, but i can only find one. >O

Iron & Wine - Naked as we came (http://s54.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=16F4PXATEC03X0VM8HJIOYY1V0)

re: yr last point. you mean there are people that don't? o_0

Tell me if they ever convince you to. Debate again that is.
