So Sick: An iTuned Life

I know I've done this meme, or a version of it, at least once before, but I like doing iTunes memes, so I'll do it again. (This time I got it from Gwenda Bond.)

RULES
1. Put your iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc. on shuffle.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS.
4&5. Deleted the part about tagging people, so just do it if you like.
6. Have Fun!

IF SOMEONE SAYS 'ARE YOU OKAY' YOU SAY?
"It'll Be the Same Without You" by The Mendoza Line
Which means, I suppose, "If you want to continue to be allowed to talk to me -- or perhaps to live -- confine your conversation to pleasantries."

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF
"To the Rain" by French, Frith, Kaiser, Thompson
With non sequiturs, I guess. I seem to be a quite obnoxious person, according to this meme.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
"Black Wings" by Tom Waits
It's true; I can't get enough of chicks with big dark-feathered appendages sprouting from their backs.

HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
"Take My Life" by Black Helicopter
Possibly, but more in the Henny Youngman sense rather than the Wristy McSlashalot sense.

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE'S PURPOSE?

"(We Workers Do Not Understand) Modern Art" by Camper Van Beethoven
It's true; they don't. So my purpose is complete!

WHAT'S YOUR MOTTO?
"Skin & Bone" by The Kinks
Anyone who's ever seen me will laugh at that one.

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
"12345678" by The Hard Lessons
They do think that I can count, and I thank them for that.

WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
"The Dream" by The Cure
They still dream that I'll become rich & famous and enwrap them in luxury, perhaps.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
"Josie and the Pussycats" by Juliana Hatfield and Tanya Donnelly
It's futile of me to deny it...

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
"Born to Run" by Cowboy Mouth
I'm not sure I have a best friend, and if I did, it would be either my wife or my brother. But I do think that undefined person is born to run. (Though I certainly do want Wendy to let me in and be her friend -- I certainly will guard her dreams and visions.)

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
"So What" by The Cure
Quite appropriate, actually. But two Cure songs that quickly?

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
"Darkness" by The Police
Not bad, since I am already grown up.

WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
"Valentine's Day" by The Dollyrots
Only if I kill myself because my boyfriend jilted me on V-Day, I think. And even then, only if I'm about sixteen. Still, it's a great song.

WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
"My Main Attraction" by The Lime Spiders
Recursion, I guess.

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST FEAR?
"Under Control" by Soft Targets
Oh, yes, I greatly fear being under control. And don't throw me in that brier patch, either.

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
"Shade" by Portugal. The Man
That I'm sitting in the shade, or that I already am a shade? I'll never say.

WHAT DO YOU WANT RIGHT NOW?
"Baby Don't You Do It" by The Who
More like the reverse, I'd say.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
"It Goes On" by The Psychedelic Furs
I just can't get rid of them.

WHAT WILL YOU POST THIS AS?
"So Sick" by Tracy Shedd
And so I will.

And, like I did last time, here's a widget with as many of those songs as I can get. (And that's barely half; I'm surprised at how many of these aren't available.)
