    How could I possibly forget the Smashing Pumpkins!!!!! I have a massive sentimental attachment to Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness...

    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Let's see if I can even do this... (without too much Andrew Bird, of course)

    1. Rocky Raccoon ~ The Beatles
    2. Honey Pie ~ The Beatles (I need at least two from them)
    2. Measuring Cups ~ Andrew Bird ("get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game, come to the front of the class and we'll measure your brain, we'll give you a complex and we'll give it a name")
    3. Plasticities ~ Andrew Bird ("we'll fight, we'll fight for your music halls and dying cities; they'll fight, they'll fight, they'll fight for your neural walls and plasticities and precious territories")
    4. Rollin' and Tumblin' ~ Muddy Waters ("you know I coulda had religion, but I was a diving dove")
    5. Gronlandic Edit ~ of Montreal ("physics makes us all its *****es")
    6. Cyanide Breath Mint ~ Beck ("cool off your jets, take off your sweats, I got a funny feeling they got plastic in the afterlife")
    7. Seahorse ~ Devendra Banhart ("I want to be a seahorse")
    8. The Book of Right On ~ Joanna Newsom ("I killed my dinner, with karate, kick 'em in the head, taste the body"
    9. Prelude ~ Glenn Gould (because it's so good they put it in space)
    10. The Way the Wind Blows ~ A Hawk and a Hacksaw (oh so sublime violin)
    11. 21st Century Pop Song ~ Hymie's Basement ("root root root for the home team, shout like your dad at the TV screen, tie a dollar bill around a circus flea")
    12. Message of Love ~ Band of Gypsys/Jimi Hendrix
    13. Slow Blues ~ Jimi Hendrix
    14. Sax Rohmer #1 ~ The Mountain Goats
    15. A Chicken with Its Head Cut Off ~ The Magnetic Fields
    and somehow a dog
    has taken itself & its tail considerably away
    into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
    behind: me, wag.

    Niamhs Playlist

    The songs i choose reflect more who i am, how i feel and what i think, that what i listen too.
    So here goes!
    Why does it always rain on me- Travis
    I'm Irish. Its always raining... well most of the time!
    Run- Snow Patrol
    Sometimes we just need to escape. Even if its not by physically running.
    In Between- Linkin Park
    I always seem to get caught up in the middle of arguments.
    Sometimes right, sometimes wrong- Mickey Harte
    Arent we all!
    I have a Dream- ABBA
    Because i aspire to be many things in my life. Many may not come true and thats why they are dreams.
    I am, I Feel- Alisha’s Attic
    I'm only human, and i can get angry and fume sometimes.
    Ironic- Alanis Morissette
    Life likes to bite me in the bum too often.
    Stanger things have happened- Foo Fighters
    Because strange situations seem to revolve around me.
    Haunted- Evenescence
    This is because of my passion for all things paranormal... and being haunted by things in my past. (only because i cant let go.)
    Basket Case- Green Day
    I can go a bit crazy at times!
    Tamacun- Rodrigo Y Gabriela
    You'd need to listen to this and feel the music.
    Rusty Halo- The Script
    I'm no angel and i'm not perfect.
    She’s got her ticket- Tracy Chapman
    Because one of these days i'm just going to take off.
    Flight of the bumblebee- Rimsky- Korsakov
    I'm always doing something.
    Always look on the Brightside of life- Monty Python
    Pessamism gets me nowhere and sometime it is better to see the brightside than dwell on the bad.

    I thought about that song too. But the drama queen era ended years ago so...

    Ah yes! Hence why i went down the "It always rains in Ireland" route instead!

    Very interesting thread. I know the songs that would be on mine, but the thing is that there are just so many different ones for so many different times in my life. I would almost have to have more than one list just to have the perfect music for each time in life. I will have to give this some serious consideration, though, and see if I am able to come up with only 15.

    Oh my gosh, this is truthfully one of the hardest things i've ever done. So hard to pick.

    1. Hurt - Nine Inch Nails
    this song will always be there for me when the times get hardest, it's a song about losing everything. When you think you got it bad just listen to this song for a second, and it's hard to complain about your current situation knowing there is someone out there who wrote the lyrics to this song.

    2. X.Y.U - The Smashing Pumpkins
    The angriest song ever from an album that has changed my life, Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness.

    3. How Indiscreet - Andrew Bird's Bowl Of Fire
    represents everything I truly like about music.

    4. Roll Over Beethoven - Chuck Berry
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsp4VCbVvn4
    you gotta see this live to understand.

    5. Golden Slumbers - The Beatles

    6. Happiness Is A Warm Gun - The Beatles

    7. Oh Yoko - John Lennon
    this song is just really catchy.
    In the middle of the night.
    In the middle of the night I call your name


    8. Milk It - Nirvana
    this song is so weird, but it's fitting on this playlist. And it's from the album that made up my adolescence.

    9. Memory Lane - Elliot Smith

    10. Head Over Feet - Alanis Morrissette.
    Don't lie to yourself and say you didn't like this album.

    11. Under The Bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
    I hate the direction this band has gone in, but I used to LOVE this song.

    12. A Day In The Life - The Beatles
    this may be my favorite song of all time.

    13. Poor Places - Wilco

    14. Song For The Dead - Queens Of The Stone Age
    this song is pretty intense, gets me pumped.

    15. Motion Picture Soundtrack - Radiohead
