Well god, I ignore coming to this board for a couple days, only to figure out that I apparently started a thread all on my own. Well thank you
pointup for overcoming the extreme obsticle, known to many as my procrastination. Glad to see that people are finally catching on to this. It great to see how other people are feeling on a daily/monthly/whatever basis, specifically thru music. Anyhow, I wanted to finish posting what has become my May playlist (in addition to the first post in this thread), and also my "cracked out on adderall and have to have something playing in the background while I spend three nights learning what I should have learned all semester" playlist
11. "Out Here All Night" - Damone:
I absolutely have no idea where I found this song. Maybe mtvU? Its a touch scene for my tastes but right now it seems to be hitting the spot. Great energy to it.
12. "Casimir Pulaski Day" -
Sufjan Stevens:
Haunting to say the least, yet surprisingly sentimental without being excessively emotional. I am in love with the verse about 'Tuesday night at the bible study,' for some unbeknownst reason.
13. "Wasted & Ready" - Ben Kweller:
Do I honestly really know much about Ben Kweller? No. No, I most certainly do not. However, I know that this song involves being drunk and therefore it makes Finals Week '06 seem a hell of a lot shorter.
14. "To Your Love" - Fiona Apple:
I said before that there are certain artists who always make it on my playlists, and Fiona is one of them. It came up on shuffle while at the library, and decided it had to be my Fiona song. After all who doesn't love this: "Don't be down when my demeanor tends to disappoint/Its hard enough even trying to be civil to myself."
15. "Phenomena" - The Yeah Yeah Yeahs:
This song. So simple but Karen O just does something with words that is inexplicable to a certain degree. Everything becomes so enchanting and exotic. Plus this song is kind of hot!
16. "Autonomy" - Heartless Bastards:
This is straight rock. I love this ****...basically the story of my life right now. If you have the capabilities to download this or purchase it, PLEASE do. "Someday, I'd like to play a part in the life I've waited to start, I'll bet I could live it well, if I take deep breaths and exhale."
17. "Night On Fire" - VHS Or Beta:
What's not to love, honestly? Catchy.
18. "You Look So Fine" - Garbage:
The other artist/band most likely to make an appearence monthly. Shirley Manson, what can I say...haunting song, with some great lyrics. I really believe that Shirley is a completely underrated lyricist.
19. "Come Pick Me Up" - Ryan Adams:
One of my Top 5 most played songs on iTunes, and I figured it would be apropos to put that on here since this is my month. In all reality though, this is an amazing song.
20. "Scratch" - Kendall Payne:
I had no idea where this song came from in my music library, but damn I'm glad I found it. The perfect way to end my playlist.
