Valentine's Playlist 2013

So as you all know, yesterday was the entirely commercialized Saint Valentine's Day! Hooray for plastic foil and chocolate! Well, I didn't have the opportunity to share my SOTD or holiday playlist with you all! So here it is! Yesterday's Song of The Day was I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz.  Now for the Holiday Playlist! It's either shorter or longer than usual, I'll let you decide.

1. Yellow by Alex Parks
A song about a color! No. The Color Yellow is just there. Everywhere. Listen to it.

2. Gang Of Rhythm by Walk Off The Earth
"I got this old guitar, the strings are rusty but it's all I need" Here's to the broken-hearted musicians reading this. At least you got a song out of it right?

3. Last Train Home by Lostprophets
For every broken heart in general.

4. Have Faith In Me by A Day To Remember
For the ones that are always there for eachother, and the ones working on getting back to eachother.

5. Heels Over Head by Boys Like Girls
I actually don't remember why that one is on here. I can't even remember the lyrics. Strange...

6. You Give Love A Bad Name by Bon Jovi]
Who hates their ex? Show of hands? Now who raised their hand at the computer screen?

7. Bruised by Jack's Mannequin
If you take one thing away from this song, it should be that this should never happen to you.

So that's it for this Holiday! Just wait for Saint Patrick's Day!
What was your Valentine Song?

Stupid battery

So as I might have mentioned before, I'm using an older MP3. One that doesn't recognize any charger not made by the company that made the device. WHICH IS STUPID in terms of consumer convenience, but genius for the company because I'll bet they make the chargers so they only last a week or something so anybody dumb enough to buy one in the first place has to go back and buy more.
Anyway, I just use a USB cable and charge it from the desktop at home. That doesn't work at the library.
SUPER LAME
So no song for today.

Honestly

So that band that did the song This Should Have Been A Love Song? Well I finally got in contact with them, which was a lot easier than getting in contact with the chick that showed me their music in the first place. Anyway, look them up on soundcloud or something, it's Lost Without Lacie. So their song Honestly has absolutely NOTHING to do with my day or week or feelings as far as I know. (I didn't really listen through the whole song, but don't tell them that it might hurt their feelings.)
So yeah, the Song of The Day is Honestly by Lost Without Lacie. What's your song of the day?

Honor For All

So as I mentioned a month or so ago, I got the game Dishonored for Christmas. I beat it (with high chaos, meaning I didn't do stealth very well.) within days of getting it. I LOVE this games soundtrack. The background music, the combat music, even the voice acting, but my absolute favorite song from the game is the song played at the ending credits. Honor for All by Jon and Daniel Licht. You may recognize the second name from other game soundtracks (ex. Silent Hill Book of Memories).
not the song of the day, maybe, just thought I'd share.

Photograph

The Song of The Day is Photograph by Def Leppard. Not sure why actually, I just get a good vibe from the song today.
Comment with your song of the day if you want.

Smile

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROCKET!!!! I know you won't be reading this but fuck it I'm writing this to you anyway. Well, in a way don't I kinda write all of them to you sorta? No? Whatever.
The Song of The Day is Smile by Unkle Kracker, and yes it's a country song. BE SURPRISED!!! So yeah, happy birthday love <3 Sorry I'm not there, but some prick judge decided that it's a good idea to separate two people who left to be together, not like that's a reason to try again or anything. (I take a small bit of pleasure in knowing that this all goes back to the judge. Just a small bit though, because there's a chance this may come back to bite me in the ass, and that never feels good.)
Anyway, despite how sappy this is gonna sound; This song always makes me think of you. No matter how low I get, some song like this comes on and thoughts of us come back and I'm smiling again. So here's the lyrics, be embarrassed that all of my 23 readers, most of which live in Iceland (do they speak English in Iceland or am I going to have to start writing these in another damn language? Just asking.) will know that this one's for you Rocket. Happy Birthday love

You're better then the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that's right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it's ok, yeah it's ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking through sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that
You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Don't know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

What the fuck happened to my font? seriously.

Sanctuary (After The Battle)

So those of you who are my friends on Facebook, which would require you knowing who I am which unsettles me a tad bit, know that I recently (yesterday) acquired a copy of the greatest Playstation 2 game ever (Kingdom Hearts 2). So I got the game, and yesterday afternoon I started a new game. Since then, that profile is now a lvl 58, I've unlocked the Secret Ending, and done pretty much everything but make the Ultima Weapon, which is pissing me off. Anyway, the Song of The Day is the credits music for Kingdom Hearts 2; Sanctuary (After The Battle) by Utada Hikaru. That's all. Back to gaming.
Readers, what's your SOTD?

99 Red Balloons

So yeah, I can't sleep. Mum was just down here bothering me about getting up to bed though, so this one will be quick, no ranting tonight. At least I hope not.
The Song of The Day is 99 Red Balloons by Goldfinger. Again, I remember Rocket and I half-singing-half-reciting it this one time. I can't remember if it was when we were making a cake at her place (which I didn't even get to try!) or our last picnic in the park though. I think the park one was when I sang Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold as she spun me around on the "Spinning Circle of Dizzyness and Death" (y'know, those things that you lie in the middle of in the playground and have your friends spin you till you puke. I don't know what they're actually called.) no wait, that wasn't Nightmare, it was some A7X song though so whatever.
When I first heard this song I didn't really get it, so I was talking to my mum about it and her understanding of it is that every balloon represents a dream or hope. As he's letting the balloons go off, he's letting go of the hopes and dreams he held in the past. Which is kinda sad...
Anyway, the song is a cover of some German song, 99 Luft Balons by.... well shit, I can't remember who played it originally. But the original sounds all funky, in a good way.
Readers, what's your song of the day?
