there's a party in my closet

[asimplechord]

+ I forgot that Less Than Jake used to be a Fueled By Ramen band, and that Vinnie Fiorello was unhappy with the way the label was moving with the Decaydance influence. Now that I think about it, I guess that explains why the lead singer trash-talked about Panic At The Disco during their set. Huh.

+ Cobra Starship's new tour already has a date in Texas posted at FrontGate Tickets - The Scout Bar in San Antonio in November. YAY. Hopefully that means they'll be at Houston's Scout Bar shortly before or thereafter.

+ Here, have another music meme, via why_me_why_not.

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first two lines from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Check off the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly. I'll screen comments for 24 hours for fairness.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING, and that would make you a cheating cheater who cheats! Not allowed!


1. If you love me / you will give your heart
2. Bye bye babydoll / you know I'm never coming home
3. I candy coat and cover everything that I'm still hiding underneath / It's been a long time, it's been a long time
4. When you were young / you were the king of carrot flowers
5. You ask too much of me / you try my patience
6. Your dream vacation, smile hostage refuge / a work in progress you bleed Pretty Handsome Awkward, The Used
7. Rambling, where to begin? / I tasted summer on your peppery skin
8. Before you hedge those bets you placed against me / Be reticent of fortunes they fortell
9. Yeah, you've been alone / I've been gone for far too long
10. Some people said, if I could only care for you / Some people said, he will never love again
11. All the times I've tried / I know they don't erase
12. Your mother came up to me / she wanted answers only she should know
13. I'm dreamin' / in the mornin'
14. Occident out on the weekend / That's the way we relax
15. This blood that's in our veins it / carries all of these mistakes that we've ever made
16. An angel's smile is what you sell / you promise me heaven and put me through hell You Give Love A Bad Name, Bon Jovi
17. I'm so money / so money
18. She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene Billie Jean, Michael Jackson (Chris Cornell)
19. I'm packed and I'm holding / I'm smiling, she's living Semi-Charmed Life, Third Eye Blind
20. Come save me from walking off a windowsill / or I'll sleep in the rain. Mad As Rabbits, Panic At The Disco

This is sad, but the only one I know is:

#18 is Billie Jean/Michael Jackson

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

Indeed it is, although the version I have is sung by Chris Cornell. :)

[angela-snape.livejournal.com]

ooh, that sounds interesting. I've never heard that version.

Yes, yes, and yes. I knew you'd get the last one. :)

that's b/c I'm in love with all things Brendon-related. Even if I still don't have any bandom icons.

#6 is The Used--Pretty Handsome Awkward
#19 is Third Eye Blind--Semi-Charmed Life

I know I should know more than that, but I'm blanking. I might have to keep thinking and come back...

[asimplechord.livejournal.com]

Yes and yes. :)

Um, some of these are really random. Like, I only listen to them every once in a while, so I don't know what algorithm made the shuffle pick them out.
