I pod poetry

[puffin-away]

Something XFM are doing in the UK.
Put your Ipod on shuffle and write down the 1st line of the first 5 songs.
Mine came out to this.

I used to rule the world.I like to party.Georgia
Tell me all the things you would change.
Please don't stop the music.

OK, I'll try. I like random.

There is a house in New Orleans.
Stars can't fight city lights.
Well, my Daddy left home when I was three.
We skipped the light fandango.
If it keeps on rainin, the levee's gonna break.

Here's another one that worked out quite well:

I could be wrong I could be right.
I follow the night till the morning's light.
Your sorry eyes, they cut through bone.
Spread your wings.
Hey there lonely girl.

Rise -- Public Image Limited
Waterlow -- Mott The Hoople
Lost Cause -- Beck
Ballerina -- Van Morrison
Hey There Lonely Girl -- The Stylistics

I got a gold chain like it was 1980.
It's a groovy time for a movie time.
Out in the streets they call it murder!
All I want is your understanding, as in a small act of affection.
Please allow me to adjust my pants, so that I may dance the good time dance!

Dirt nasty-1980
Mastodon-linoleum knife
Damien Marley-welcome to jamrock
Gnarls Barkley-Just a thought
Clutch-The mob goes wild

What's an "I Pod"?

 

[Surf Monkey]

Because you're sweet and lovely, girl
I know, you know, everybody knows it's true
You need to straighten your posture and suck in your gut
I like it
We're through being cool

Beatles - For You Blue
Joan Jett and the Blackhearts - Make Believe
CAKE - Comanche
Echo & The Bunnymen - No Dark Things
DEVO - Through Being Cool

An I pod is a small electronic device that gives a great deal of enjoyment.
Tonights offering.

As I walk this land of broken dreams,
It's five o'clock on a saturday,
step inside walk this way,
we dreamers ahve our ways,
I wanna be rich and I want loadsa money.

Jimmy Ruffin- What becomes of the broken hearted
Billy Joel-Piano man
Ded Leppard- Pour some sugar
Barry Manilow-I made it thruogh the rain ????
Lily Allen-The fear

 

[Surf Monkey]

I'm pretty sure you mean iPod. I've never seen anything named I pod, and I'm pretty up on the various media players.

 

[puffin-away]

Sorry for that. Something wrong with my eyes.

 

[Surf Monkey]

No problem. I'm just giving you a hard time. I knew what you meant.

I'll play!

I like celtic and so had to skip a few because they didn't have lyrics or are in Gaelic and I don't know the language:

Colder eyes, they look through me
Hope is your survival
Until the distant becomes close
By chance it was I met my love
There is a place on the east

 

[Rhetoric Camel]

I was born in Dixie in a boomer shed
It was all true a parlour strode, and the night sets forever
We lost the skyline we stepped right off the map
Mindless drifter on the road carry such an easy load
Pilgrim, those are dry and bitter tears and lonely

wow those fit together quite well actually, who would have though, Bob Dylan, Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Neil Young, and Bad Religion would fit that good together.

 

[puffin-away]

my best yet

As I was walking down the street one day
Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long girl
Wait a minute baby
Hello it's me
You are so beautiful

Joe Cocker

 

[Mac]

I see a world filled with possibilities
I smell the liar
Oh so many ways for me to show you how your dogma has abandoned you
Bad luck wind, been blowing on my back
I'll travel down the road and I'm carrying that heavy load.

Genitorturers-Liars lair
A perfect circle-judith

Gwar-The road behind
