Song of the Day

Favorite Songs of All-Time (238-224)

     Okay, so it looks like I have some explaining to do here.  I suppose I could start with the insanely random number of 238 as my total amount of songs ranked.  Well, many moons ago, I made a playlist on my iPod dubbed "Ol' Reliable" which was basically a playlist of all my "favorite" songs.  The songs that when I hear them, no matter what, I never skip past them.  I didn't make the list with a set number in mind and over the months, I have added even more songs.  So as of right now, the playlist has 238 songs on it and thus, I will be ranking all of them over the next couple weeks from 238 until number 1.  This is pretty similar to my favorite movies of all-time post I did a while ago.  You're going to see quite a bit of reptetion when it comes to bands, but hey, I know what I like.  I just figured, since I listen to my iPod so much, it could be a fun little project for me to bestow upon myself.

     With my impeccable math skills, I figured out that 238 divided by 14 is 17, which means I'll be doing 17 posts over the next 2+ weeks featuring 14 songs in each one until we're all done.

    I have never been one who is ashamed of the music he listens to, nor do I ridicule others for liking their favorite songs.  If you enjoy it, if it speaks to you, sparks some sort of emotion in you, then it's doing its job if you ask me.

     I like to post lyrics with my songs, not always because I relate to them personally (although more often than not, that is the reason) but honestly because I may just think it's a powerful/good/clever line.  Not everything I post is directly how I feel.

   I'm rambling now.  Let's get to it.

Cliche much?

Song(s) of the Day

No It Isn't - (+44)

And my mouth is filled with blood, from trying not to speak.  So search for an excuse and someone to believe you.

Let's slit out wrists and burn down something beautiful.

You Be Tails, I'll Be Sonic - A Day to Remember

You killed what was left of the good in me.  I'm tired so let me be broken.  Look down at the mess that's in front of me, no other words need to be spoken.  And I've got nobody else to blame, though I tried.  Kept all of our past mistakes held inside.  I'll live with regret for my whole life.

Song(s) of the Day

Jealousy - Good Charlotte

For every lie I ever told, for every line I ever sold.  For everyone I ever hurt before.  I could always find a good excuse, I could always find something to use.  I could always find a way out of the truth.  Well it used to feel okay inside, to get in their face and tell these lies.  But not today, I'm breaking free.

Jealousy, look what you've done.  You've got a hold of me, you've made me become.  Thought I'd never be, what I'm running from.  This jealousy look what it's done.

I swear that I've been waiting, I've been waiting to say...

You rip apart my insides, you know that I can't sleep.  You tear apart my whole life, you take the best of me.

You Won't Hear This - Envy on the Coast

It's a quarter past four, I packed my bags with less things than we hold in conversation, if that's even possible.  I wish it weren't true, the fact that I could write this song and you can't speak a word.

And maybe, I'm crazy.

Don't want to have to write to you.  But you made me, you made me.  Because you never changed.

I think I'll move somewhere inviting, where my heart's not being lied to, 'cause I'll keep on trying.  But you can't change anymore, so put that smile behind your lack of effort, it's the only thing that shows anyway.

You'll never change.
