Dec. 20th, 2005 09:34 amOkay, I'm feeling a bit better, enough to do this meme, from a playlist I made for my stepmom (of stuff I thought she'd like musically). They're probably far too easy for several of you...but play anyway, it's fun. :-) Guess song and artist; I can't remember any rules other than that, other than no googling for answers.
1. I was a pretty young girl once; I had dreams, I had high hopes.
2. Kundalini sunrise, the clamouring of church bells. - Bruce Cockburn, "Open"
3. Rain falls in real time, and rain fell through the night. - Tragically Hip, "Ahead by a Century"
4. As they huddled there, in petalled prayer; they told me this, as I knelt there. - XTC, "Wrapped in Grey"
5. I will bend the light pretending that it's somehow lingered on.
6. I got a big chain around my neck. - Lucinda Williams, "Can't Let Go"
7. We'll raise 'em on tiger's milk and green bananas. - Michelle Shocked, "When I Grow Up"
8. Sensitivity builds a prison in the final act. - a cover of John/Taupin's "Sacrifice" (yes, it's Sinead's version)
9. Then I'll take your hand, finally glad that you are here.
10. You always say your name, like I wouldn't know it's you... - REM, "At My Most Beautiful"
11. Some drink to remember, some to forget, some for satisfaction, and some to regret. - Ben Harper, "When It's Good"
12. Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup. - (a cover of) Crowded House, "Don't Dream It's Over"
13. I fill the bath and climb inside, singing...alalalalala... - 10,000 Maniacs, "Verdi Cries"
14. Sun on my skin, day burning bright. - Patti Witten, "Black Butterfly"
15. Everything is governed by the rule of one thing leads to another. - Ani diFranco, "Hour Follows Hour"
16. I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to its knees. - (a cover of) Paul Simon, "American Tune"
17. It goes like this: the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift. - Rufus Wainwright cover of Cohen's "Hallelujah"
18. Somehow I found myself far out of line from the ones I had drawn. - Poi Dog Pondering, "Thanksgiving"
19. We've shared the thoughts that two could share; we feel the truth, magic that we send.
20. I will fly like the falcon when I go. - Dave Carter, "When I Go"
