Well, I notice I constantly get obsessed with different bands and songs, and I figured I'd make a thread where people can post about what they're really into right now. Lately, I've had this horrible obsession with a song called "Sideways" by Citizen Cope. It's weird, because I don't like blues, but the sound is extremely bluesy, complete with that guitar sound you always hear in a blues song. It's just really moving with the guitar and the lyrics, and I find myself humming it randomly, or just outright belting out the lyrics when I play it on repeat on my computer.

Sideways - Citizen Cope

You know it ain't easy
For these thoughts here to leave me
There's no words to describe it
In French or in English
Well, diamonds they fade
And flowers they bloom
And I'm telling you
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
They've been knockin' me out lately
Whenever you come around me
These feelings won't go away
They've been knockin' me sideways
I keep thinking in a moment that
Time will take them away
But these feelings won't go away


I can't stress enough how much the guitar adds to this piece. You really should check it out.

i'd like to list a particular song i'm obsessing over but i'm good at multitasking. I've been obsessing over at least twenty.

"starting at the sun" by TV on the Radio is just really addictive though. I don't even know who that group is, but it matters not.

AH! Cody introduced me to this! I freaking LOVE it. Insta-obsessed.

Coin Operated Boy - Dresden Dolls

coin operated boy
sitting on the shelf he is just a toy
but i turn him on and he comes to life
automatic joy
that is why i want a coin operated boy

made of plastic and elastic
he is rugged and long-lasting
who could ever ever ask for more
love without complications galore
many shapes and weights to choose from
i will never leave my bedroom
i will never cry at night again
wrap my arms around him and pretend....

coin operated boy
all the other real ones that i destroy
cannot hold a candle to my new boy and i'll
never let him go and i'll never be alone
not with my coin operated boy......

this bridge was written to make you feel smittener
with my sad picture of girl getting bitterer
can you extract me from my plastic fantasy
i didnt think so but im still convinceable
will you persist even after i bet you
a billion dollars that i'll never love you
will you persist even after i kiss you
goodbye for the last time
will you keep on trying to prove it?
i'm dying to lose it...
I'm losing my confidence
i want it
I want it
I want it
i want you
i want you
i want you
i want a
I want a
i want a
i want a coin operated boy.

and if i had a star to wish on
for my life i cant imagine
any flesh and blood could be his match
i can even take him in the bath

coin operated boy
he may not be real experienced with girls
but i know he feels like a boy should feel
isnt that the point that is why i want a
coin operated boy
with his pretty coin operated voice
saying that he loves me that hes thinking of me
straight and to the point
that is why i want
a coin operated boy

I've been currently listening to alternative bands. I'll always love Linkin Park and Breaking Benjamin, they are my favorite bands. But lately I've been listening to The Killers, Click Five, Fall Out Boy, Relient K, and a new artist who is actually from around my neighborhood, Jason Mraz.

I've also been into some acoustic artists like John Mayer. And a small obsession with Spanish hip-hop and reggae started last year.

Here are some of my favorite lyrics ever:

Highvoltage (Linkin Park, Mike Shinoda's part)

I've been diggin in the crates, ever since I was livin in space,
Before the ratrace, before monkeys had human traits,
Mastered numerology, and Bigbang theology,
Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology,
Invented the mic, so I could start blessing it,
Chinchecking kids to make my point like an impressionist,
Many men have tried to shake us,
But I twist mic cords to double helixes to show them what I'm made of,
I buckle knees like leg braces,
I cast a spell of instrumental-ness on all of the mecees who hate us,
So try on, I leave you without a shoulder to cry on,
From now unto infinity let icons be bygones,
I fire bombs, ghostly notes haunt this,
I tried threats but moved on to a promise,
I stomp shit, with or without an accomplice,
Mixed Media!
The stamp of approval is on this.


There is more, but this is my favorite part. I don't know why, its just very fluid and has been my favorite lyrics for years now.

Xantar: And for your information, I didn't call on any minions. They got into this on their own, and they seem to be having a blast.

Marci: Screw you too, I'm not your minion.

Xantar: Also, Makokam is not my minion. Just thought I'd point that out.

This song has been making me feel warm and fuzzy lately. I'm sure you can figure out why. If not, you must be out of the loop. ;)

Brighter Than Sunshine - Aqualung

I never understood before
I never knew what love was for
My heart was broke, my head was sore
What a feeling

Tied up in ancient history
I didnt believe in destiny
I look up you're standing next to me
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, i don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine

I never saw it happening
I'd given up and given in
I just couldn't take the hurt again
What a feeling

I didn't have the strength to fight
suddenly you seemed so right
Me and you
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.

Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

I got a feeling in my soul

the Dresden Dolls own my soul right now...though I like Girl Anachronism or Gravity better than coin-operated boy.
i acutally just like everything they've done.

but "Missed Me" is especially fun because it's psychotic and easily stuck in my head, but it unfortunately lacks spirit without the music, as many songs tend to do:

missed me missed me
now you've got to kiss me if you kiss me
mister
i might tell my sister if i tell her
mister
she might tell my mother and my
mother,
mister,
just might tell my father and my father
mister
he won't be too happy and he'll have his
lawyer
come up from the city and arrest you
mister
so i wouldnt miss me if you get me,
mister,
see?

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you kiss me
mister
you must think im pretty if you think so
mister
you must want to fuck me if you fuck me
mister
it must mean you love me
if you love me
mister
you would never leave me
it's as simple as can be!

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you miss me
mister
why do you keep leaving if you trick me
mister
i will make you suffer and they'll get you
mister
put you in the slammer and
forget you
mister
then i think you'll miss me won't you miss me
WON'T YOU MISS ME??

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you kiss me
mister
take responsibility i'm fragile
mister
just like any girl would be and so
misunderstood
(so treat me delicately!)

missed me missed me now you've gone and done it
hope you're happy in the
county penitentiary
it serves you right
for kissing little girls
but i will visit
if you miss me
do you miss me? MISS ME??
how's the food they feed you??
do you miss me
will you
kiss me through the window?
do you MISS ME? MISS ME??!!
will they ever let you go???
i miss my mister so!!!!

I LOVE this song. But NOT the crap version they used in How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days. The good one is the one from the movie Michael, by Bonnie Raitt. *Hugs song*

Feels Like Home - Bonnie Raitt

Something in your eyes, makes me want to lose myself,
Makes me want to lose myself, in your arms.
There's something in your voice, makes my heart beat fast.
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life.
If you knew how lonely my life has been,
And how low I've felt so long.
If you knew how I wanted someone to come along,
And change my life the way you've done.

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I'm on my way back where I come from.
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I'm on my way back where I belong.

A window breaks down a long dark street,
And a siren wails over my head.
But I'm all right, 'cause I have you here with me.
And I can almost see through the dark there's light.
If you knew how much this moment means to me,
And how long I've waited for your touch.
If you knew how happy you are making me --
I've never thought I'd love anyone so much.

Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I'm on my way back where I come from.
Feels like home to me, feels like home to me,
Feels like I'm on my way back where I belong.

I have two songs that are preying on my mind: Bother by Stone Sour and Eyes on Me by Faye Wong (from the FFVIII OST)

Ill do the Stone Sour lyrics just for now.

Stone Sour - Bother

Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on

I'll never live down my deceit

I just absolutely love this song. It's such a good personification of how I've felt in times of dispair.

Anywhere - Evanescence

Dear my love, haven't you wanted to be with me
And dear my love, haven't you longed to be free
I can't keep pretending that I don't even know you
And at sweet night, you are my own
Take my hand

We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the morning light
We'll be half way to anywhere
Where love is more than just your name

I have dreamt of a place for you and I
No one knows who we are there
All I want is to give my life only to you
I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore
Let's run away, I'll take you there

We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the mornings light
We'll be half way to anywhere
Where no one needs a reason

Forget this life
Come with me
Don't look back you're safe now
Unlock your heart
Drop your guard
No one's left to stop you

Forget this life
Come with me
Don't look back you're safe now
Unlock your heart
Drop your guard
No one's left to stop you now

We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the morning light
We'll be half way to anywhere

Eminem's Loose Yourself is one thats been on my mind. It's been a great help for me, just before I start college and It sums up what Im feeling (mostly)


Eminem - Loose Yourself

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

Yo, His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin, how everybody's chokin now
The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy
No, he won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap city
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo,

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better,

His soul's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin, but superstardom's close to post mortom
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose cause here goes the cold water
These ho's don't want him no mo, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it’s old partner, but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo, you better

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothafuckin roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cause man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Makai Pfeiffer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter-totter caught up between trying to be a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothafuckin option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not or not this may be the only opportunity that I got

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you better,

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

Ok, you caught me. I'm actually Xantar. I hacked Dragon's account because he's being an ass.

Dragon: You don't have the respect for me because you are entered the forum into a contest where it is impossible for one to survive unless they are the one survivor. You speak as if setting up a situation in which to make my fail by stating that I cannot live. Therefor my logic proves that over yours and you are making a direct threat on my physical life.
Xantar: I think you mean
Xantar: "You made me accidentally the whole fleshlight!"
Dragon: .....
Dragon: Sometimes I just love you.

Bordeline by polar
Forever biting your nuts

I've loved this song since i was a kid:

Gerry Rafferty - Baker Street

Windin' your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This city desert makes you feel so cold.
It's got so many people but it's got no soul
And it's taking you so long
To find out you were wrong
When you thought it had everything

You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're tryin'
You're tryin' now
Another year and then you'll be happy
Just one more year and then you'll be happy
But you're cryin'
You're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a lad in his place
He opens the door he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been
You tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he'll settle down there's a quiet little town
And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'
You know he's never gonna stop movin
Cus he's rollin'
He's the rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new mornin'
The sun is shinin' it's a new morning
You're goin'
You're goin' home.

New CD, new obsession. You know how it works.

Nickleback-Rockstar-All the Right Reasons

I'm through with standing in line
to clubs I'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth
and I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out
quite the way I wanted it to be

I want a brand new house
on an episode of cribs
and a bathroom I can play baseball in
and a king size tub big enough
for ten plus me

I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
and a big black jet with a bed room in it
gonna join the mile high club
at thirty-seven thousand feet

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and
James Dean is fine for me

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
and live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
the girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat.
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
in the VIP with the movie stars
every good gold digger's
gonna be there
every playboy bunny
with her bleach blond hair
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without tassels
Hire eight body gaurds who like to beat up assholes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free

I think I'm gonna dress my ass
with the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the playboy mansion
gonna date a centerfold that loves to
blow my money for me

I'm gonna trade this life
for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair
and change my name

Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
and live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
the girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat.
And we'll hang out at the coolest bars
in the VIP with the movie stars
every good gold digger's
gonna be there
every playboy bunny
with her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in private rooms
with the latest dictionary and
todays who's who
They'll get you anything
with that evil smile
Everybody's got a
drug dealer on speed dial
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs
that offend the censors
gonna pop my pills
from a pez dispenser

I'll get washed up singers witting all my songs
Lip synch em every night so I don't get em wrong

Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
and live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
the girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat.
And we'll hang out at the coolest bars
in the VIP with the movie stars
every good gold digger's
gonna be there
every playboy bunny
with her bleach blond hair
And we'll hide out in private rooms
with the latest dictionary and
todays who's who
They'll get you anything

Everybody's got a

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
THIS is my side, THIS is the demiltarized zone, and THAT is your side.

"Good and Evil" is too complicated. I prefer, "Us and Them".

If you ever wonder what to do in life, ask What Would Jack Bauer Do, because what Jack Bauer would do sure as hell will get things done faster than what Jesus would do.

I've been listening to a lot of Johnny Cash for the first time in months and (strangely enough) have started to get into H.I.M. but for now I'll do the Cash song Im listening to for now:


Johnny Cash - One
From the Solitary Man album.

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
If youve got someone to blame

You said one love
One life
When its oone need
In the night
One love we get to share it
It leaves you baby if you dont care for it

Did i disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well its too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgivness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play jesus
To the lepors in your head

Did i ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing now
Its all i got
We're one but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other and we're doin it again

You said love is a temple
Love the higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law

You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
I cant be holdin on
To what youve got
When all youve got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
Youve got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sister
Brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

Hell yeah! *High five!*

Well I have had two full albums going a'through me head: The Waynes World OST and The Rocky Horror Picture Show OST. So heres the two main songs from them that have a'ma head a swirling:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Ballroom Blitz - Tia Carrere

Oh, it's been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see

I see a man at the back as a matter of fact
His eyes are as red as the sun
And the girl in the corner let no one ignore her
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one

Oh yeah, it was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Oooh yeah

And the man in the back said "everyone attack"
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said "boy, I wanna warn you"
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz

I'm reaching out for something
Touching nothing's all I ever do
I softly call you over
When you appear, there's nothing left of you

Now, the man in the back is ready to crack
As he's raising his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's woman
She could kill you with a wink of her eye

Oh yeah, it was electric
So prefectly hectic
And the band started leaving
'Cause they all stopped breathing
Whoa, yeah

And the man in the back said "everyone attack"
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said "boy, I wanna warn you"
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz

It was electric
So practically hectic
And the band started leaving
'Cause they all stopped breathing
Whoa, yeah

And the man in the back said "everyone attack"
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said "boy, I wanna warn you"
It'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz

WHOAAAAA!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

And the classic song of my life:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The Time Warp

RiffRaff:
It's astounding;
Time is fleeting;
Madness takes its toll.
But listen closely...

Magenta:
Not for very much longer.

RiffRaff:
I've got to keep control.
I remember doing the time-warp
Drinking those moments when
The Blackness would hit me

RiffRaff:
And the void would be calling...

Transylvanians:
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Narrator:
It's just a jump to the left.

All:
And then a step to the right.

Narrator:
With your hands on your hips.

All:
You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Magenta:
It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me.
So you can't see me, no, not at all.
In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention,
Well secluded, I see all.

RiffRaff:
With a bit of a mind flip

Magenta:
You're into the time slip.

RiffRaff:
And nothing can ever be the same.

Magenta:
You're spaced out on sensation.

RiffRaff:
Like you're under sedation.

All:
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Columbia:
Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think
When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink.
He shook-a me up, he took me by surprise.
He had a pickup truck, and the devil's eyes.
He stared at me and I felt a change.
Time meant nothing, never would again.

All:
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Narrator:
It's just a jump to the left.

All:
And then a step to the right.

Narrator:
With your hands on your hips.

All:
You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.
Let's do the time-warp again.
Let's do the time-warp again.

Whitesnake - here I go again

I dont know where Im goin
but I sure know where Ive been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.

Tho I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what Im looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin down the only road Ive ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time.

Just another heart in need of rescue
waiting on loves sweet charity
an Im gonna hold on for the rest of my days
cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin down the only road Ive ever known.
Like a hobo I was born to walk alone.
An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go.

An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time.

Here I go again on my own
goin down the only road Ive ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone
cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin down the only road Ive ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An Ive made up my mind, I aint wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again,
here I go again, here I go,
here I go again.



and another. a typical oneday-fly band called Stiltskin (uk band, and yes, the same name as the moogle from FF9)

Stiltskin - Inside

Swing low
In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a sone dark night
We take to fight
Snowfall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man start to fall
Long year in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call
And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded
Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside
Strong words
In a ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in Paris
Ring out from a bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of the black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end
Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes round
River starts to bend
And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded
Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside



try em, both are more or less rock songs.

There are not enough mentions of me in people's signatures. This should be fixed.

Okay, I've started listening to a Spanish rapper (He raps in English) named Cuban Link, and also a little of Big Pun. Any rap fans heard of these two? Big Pun used to be platinum, but he died in 2000 of a heart attack I believe. He was a big guy.

Here's a little history:

Cuban Link was his best friend, like a brother to him. They called each other Twin. They formed Terror Squad together and recruited Big Pun's Puerto Rican friend Fat Joe. Together they made a couple albums and made some kick ass music. Sadly in 2000 Big Pun died and Fat Joe and Cuban Link, who were never too cool, started beefing. Fat Joe had the rest of Terror Squad with him when he confronted Cuban Link one day and they literally beat the crap out of him and Fat Joe cut his cheek with a knife which scarred his face for life.

Cuban left Terror Squad of course and started making songs for Big Pun and against Fat Joe.

I think that anyone who likes rap should definitely check out Cuban Link and some of Big Pun. Their old music is pretty good and Cuban's new stuff is very good in my opinion. Check him out at Cubanlink.com you can even download a free mixtape called "Man on Fire."

He sounds like a Hispanic Ja Rule, except with better flow and rhymes. I dislike Ja Rule, but Cuban's voice is intimidating and inspiring.

Here is a cool piece by him, about a minute long, but its almost spoken but rhyming and very inspiring:

M.O.B. Record, proudly presents,
Cuban Link,
Chain Reaction,
the album,
Its not just music, its a movement,
The time has come for the truth to be told,
I am the truth,
I am the proof,
I am that secret that was never told,
I felt like I was trapped in a hole,
Strapped to the flo',
With the rats and the cold,
Like somebody done snatched up my soul,
Now I'm back like a crow,
They're reactions like, "No.",
Cause' they know I hold that key,
To the next chapter in the scroll,
Nobody knows, the troubles I been through,
The hustles I'm into,
Fuck muscles, this struggles all mental,
It was so simple,
But then my brother died,
Shit fucked up my high,
I had to watch his wife, his kids, and his mother cry,
While them other guys was fronting just cause it was publicized,
Little undercover spies,
Thats why I don't got no love for the other side,
They touched my pride,
But I had to ride through them dark days,
We had to part ways,
But still the mark stays,
This ain't a movie but truly I'm fuckin' Scarface,
A desperado with guns in his guitar case,
Like a fugitive on the run, caught in a car chase,
I do this here for Pun,
I swear to God says,
This is my fight,
My struggle,
My glory,
This is my life,
My music,
My story.

Yeah, its almost like a poem I guess. Anyways, another great song is "Letter to Pun" which is touching and also very impressive. He flows with rhymes for five minutes and no chorus. Anyways, anybody interesting in this kind of music shoudl check him out.

Xantar: And for your information, I didn't call on any minions. They got into this on their own, and they seem to be having a blast.

Marci: Screw you too, I'm not your minion.

Xantar: Also, Makokam is not my minion. Just thought I'd point that out.
