Katy Perry - Dark Horse (feat. Juicy J)

This song would have to be one of my fave Katy Perry music videos ever. I love the Egyptian theme they did with it.

 

[maccrash]

"Shampoo Suicide" ~ Broken Social Scene

simply one of the best albums ever

 

[PunkPhantom]

That's Youth by Anti-Flag

This song makes me sad. It makes me think of my wasted teenhood that I'll never get back...

I Fight Dragons - The Future Soon [Jonathan Coulton Cover]

Lyrics

Lyrics


"Last week I left a note on Laura's desk
It said I love you signed anonymous friend
Turns out she's smarter than I thought she was
She knows I wrote it, now the whole class does
And I'm alone during couple skate
When she skates by with some guy on her arm
But I know that I'll forget the look of pity in her face
When I'm living in my solar dome on a platform in space

Cause it's gonna be the future soon
And I won't always be this way
When the things that make me weak and strange get engineered away
It's gonna be the future soon
I've never seen it quite so clear
And when my heart is breaking I can close my eyes and it's already here

I'll probably be some kind of scientist
Building inventions in my space lab in space
I'll end world hunger I'll make dolphins speak
Work through the daytime, spend my nights and weekends
Perfecting my warrior robot race
Building them one laser gun at a time
I will do my best to teach them
About life and what it's worth
I just hope that I can keep them from destroying the Earth

Cause it's gonna be the future soon
And I won't always be this way
When the things that make me weak and strange get engineered away
It's gonna be the future soon
I've never seen it quite so clear
And when my heart is breaking I can close my eyes and it's already

Here on Earth they'll wonder
As I piece by piece replace myself
And the steel and circuits will make me whole
But I'll still feel so alone
Until Laura calls me home

I'll see her standing by the monorail
She'll look the same except for bionic eyes
She lost the real ones in the robot wars
I'll say I'm sorry, she'll say it's not your fault
Or is it?
She'll eye me suspiciously
Hearing the whir of the servos inside
And she'll scream and try to run
But there'll be no place to hide
When a crazy cyborg wants to make you his robot bride

'Cause it's gonna be the future soon
And I won't always be this way
When the things that make me weak and strange get engineered away
It's gonna be the future soon
I've never seen it quite so clear
And when my heart is breaking I can close my eyes and it's already here"

This is such a great song. The original is better, I think, but this one is much more upbeat, tone-wise, so I'm listening to it instead. Well, and I Fight Dragons is awesome.

Impending Doom - Murderer

A coming fight is on the horizon
Violent love, we can not hide from
A broken man watches vainly
To a world that can never save us
He prays for the first time
He cries out for a chance and justice
Soon a great light will see
The people of the darkness
Of the darkness

We have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The Antichrist is gonna rise and we'll
Have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The Antichrist will fall

A Christian Deathcore band? Wow... Just... Wow... I do like this song though. But I can't get over the concept of a christian Deathcore band.

 

[Sableye~]

KoRn - Twist

Supposedly, this song has no lyrics at some parts, and he just is making noise. However, I have found the supposed lyrics online and can understand a little bit of what he's singing. Now I don't know.

Orpheus, I actually could hear him singing while reading those lyrics. :D

 

[Hikamaru]

Foster The People - Coming Of Age

I hate to say this, but oh god Supermodel is a really awesome album from these guys. The video clip is really beautiful as well.

Relient K - This Week The Trend

Lyrics

Lyrics


"And this week the trend
was to not wake up till 3pm
I picked the few conscious hours that I chose to spend
and slept away the rest of them

and this week the trend
was to crash and burn and then return again
to practice the life that I pretend
provides enough to get me through the weekend

so I say
get me a solution
and watch me run with it
and then you gave
you gave me a solution
what have I done with it
cause I was absolutely sure I had it all figured out
way back then
and now it's this minute, this hour, this day

And this week the trend
was to backstab every single one of my friends
and leave a voicemail message trying to make amends
all the while hoping things work out in the end

and this week the trend
was to borrow all the strength that you could lend
to keep my head above the water and not descend
back to where I said I'd never go again

So I say
give me a solution
and watch me run with it
and then you gave
you gave me a solution
what have I done with it
cause I was absolutely sure I had it all figured out
way back then
but after this day it's this week all over again

And I just want to get mugged at knifepoint
to get cut enough to wake me up
cause I know that I don't want to die
sitting around watching my life go by
and what we take from this is what we'll get and we haven't quite figured it out just yet
because all of us are all too stuck
strapped to a chair watching our lives blow up
stuck watching our lives blow up"

I don't often listen to Relient K, but was randomly in the mood to, so. . .

Blow Me Away by Breaking Benjamin

I first heard this song during the Gravemind level of Halo 2. It was in the room where Brutes, Hunters and Elites battle it out. I have liked this song ever since

Let It Go - Indina Menzel

I've watched this way too many times on Youtube. xD

Chicane - Don't Give Up

Probably the only notable song you'd recognize from this outfit, but funnily enough it took me years to find out the vocalist was actually Bryan Adams.

 

[Gulpin]

For some reason the song that I just can't stop listening to right now is Pumpin Blood by NONONO. It's just so catchy and gets me in the mood for spring!

 

[Hikamaru]

Example - Stay Awake

I love this guy's music. He combines rap-like vocals with dance music tunes.

 

[Pendraflare]

A Rite of Passage by Dream Theater.

So awesome and enigmatic, and what my usertitle refers to. Cliche but true :P
