Well, this is a little thing from Rae's LJ, the idea being to listen to the first 10-15 songs you hear after hitting shuffle on winamp and then writing down the lyrics you like best in the song that comes up. Here goes --

First song is an instrumental, "In Flames - Whoracle [2:40]", the only lyrics being a sort of chant using only the word "ahh".

Next up, a two hour long session of Airbase from the eleventh of October. I'm not really interested in listening to the full two hours right now to find the best lyrics, so I'll skip this one.

Wow, a series here. Instrumental from Great Teacher Onizuka's OST, "Teacher Forever [1:45]". Good song, no lyrics. Next!

Agh, this song is from the Initial D soundtrack, and is mostly in Japanese... Bring it back and Rock and Roll! *toonnnsss of Japanese* Yeah, the only English is in the chorus. Next song, thats a total of 4 skipped. "Gamble you got a chance to make a membo(?), Gamble you've gotta dive into the scramble!"

Ugh. Outkast - So Fresh and So Clean [4:10]. I'm almost ashamed to have this on my playlist. No good lyrics here...

"Weird" Al Yankovic's - Since You've Been Gone [1:22]. Weird Al is definately not known for his lyrical prowess...

1) Opeth - April Ethereal [8:41] - Good stuff, here goes ^_^
"I will endure, hide away.
I would outrun the sky, glaring with failure.
It is a mere destiny I thought, a threshold I had crossed before.
The rain was waving goodbye, and when the night came
the forest folded its branches around me.
Something passed by, and I went into a dream.
She laughing and weeping at once: take me away.
I don't know how or why, I'll never know WHEN."

2) The Postal Service - Recycled Air [4:29] - New band I got some of, I like them.
"I watch the patchwork farms' slow fade into the ocean's arms
And from here they can't see me stare
The stale taste of recycled air
I watch the patchwork farms' slow fade into the ocean's arms
Calm down, release your cares
The stale taste of recycled air"

3) Opeth - Advent [13:45] - More Opeth, hm. If I get too much of these guy's then somethings up, I only have 21 songs by them.
"Time grows short
As the piper plays his time
We are almost there
You are beyond all help
Dancing into the void
We are almost there"

4) Lacuna Coil - Purify [4:36] - Lacuna Coil roxxors.
"Celebrate!
I'm alive again!
It's time to turn the page and start
And then
Don't you think that it's time
To convince yourself it's over?
Celebrate!
I'm alive again!"

5) After skipping another 2 Weird Al's, a Lacuna Coil, and an hour long trance set... Blink 182 - Dysentary Gary [2:45]. Good song.
"Fuck this place, I lost the war
I hate you all, your mom's a whore!
Where's my dog?
'Cause girls are such a drag"

6) Ah, it pains me to have to skip a Hellsing OST song, but alas. Then, over Van Halen's Eruption (instrumental awesomeness), and on to .hack//SIGN - Edge, which is entirely in Japanese. Argh, next. Another Hellsing OST. I think shuffle is rigged. Finally! In Flames - December Flower [4:10]
"Green is the colour of my death
As in winter-guise I swoop to the ground
Green is the landscape of my sorrowfilled passing"

7) Cake - Going the Distance [3:00] appeared next.
"The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns,
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns."

8) In Flames - Cloud Connected [3:42] - Great song. I'm getting a lot of the songs that I listen to most though, I think by shuffle it means - play the songs with the most amount of listens.
"I've come to realize:
With every little glimpse you fade;
I was told that I could fly
When least expected - Cloud connected!"

9) In Flames - Touch of Red [4:12] - might have to put down a lot more than 10 at this rate...
"Fear - there's a way out
Touch of red
Break away
Nothing has it all
Bury the place I've been
I fear there's a way out" --seems the chorus is usually the best lines...

10) Puddle of Mud - Take it All Away [5:04]
"So make up your own ending
and let me know just how you feel
'Cause I am lost without you --
I cannot live at all.
My whole world surrounds you;
I stumble and I crawl"

11) Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop [4:35]
"Kick start the golden generator
Sweet talk but don't intimidate her
Can't stop the gods from engineering
Feel no need for any interfering"

Alright, I just spent the last like two hours helping Jordan out on RO, giving him some Priestly support, so I'm going to sleep. Maybe today I'll post some more...

Adion is currently listening to a LOT of songs >.>
