Rain, rain, go away (original) (raw)
July 20 2008, 03:38
Well, I got my wish (the power of hope!): Friday was declared a typhoon day and I didn't have to go at work. I celebrated by sleeping until 3:00 in the afternoon. Followed by a nap around...5:00? Yeah, a busy day.
Unfortunately, the typhoon also knocked out my internet connection for all of Friday and most of Saturday. It only came back sometime after 4:00pm. And it rained all day today, just enough to make it unpleasant to try and go anywhere, so I was kind of stuck inside. So it's been a very sleepy, quiet weekend so far.
Have a meme: Put your playlist on shuffle, take the first lines of the first 10/15/20 songs, and put them here. Update the list when someone identifies song and artist. No Google!
I admit, I fudged my shuffling and the definition of "first line" heavily (partly out of necessity--sometimes it took a considerable while to find songs in English, or with words at all). I think the fun of these memes comes not from actually trying to stump anyone (seeing as several of these songs actually give away the title in the first line), but from seeing if anyone's paying attention. And if any of your friend's musical tastes are significantly in line with yours.

2. Mother, daughter, sister, lover, her needles and pins hold the pieces together
3. I been run down, I been lied to, I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool
4. Baby, you're the one that mends my heart, I swear I'm not lying
5. The lines across your face are drawn with hate 'cause I'm drawn to someone else
6. It seems uncertain, I wish it was foregone, to know the version that made life go wrong
7. I won't stand in your way, let your hatred grow
8.
And I'd give up forever to touch you, 'cause I know that you feel me somehow

9. All that you touch, and all that you seek, all that you taste, all you feel
10. I feel you, your sun it shines, I feel you within my mind
11. Crucify my love, if my love is blind, crucify my love, if it sets me free
12. In your dream you see me clear, I have no restraint no fear
13. Hey girl, what's your name, L-U-V I see your game
14.
I woke up this morning with a bad hangover, and my penis was missing again
