alexmegamiAlrighty. Here's my goes at everyone's playlist.
Remember: I make no promises that you will not a) already have the song, b) know the song, c) hate the song. These just make me think of you. Especially you, David; I suspect my tastes run 90% counter to yours...
1. Alanis Morisette - Thank U
(The only song you've ever given me was Alanis, but I didn't want to put that on your playlist, so I went for something that sounds like something you might say.)
2. Morcheeba - Can't Keep a Good Girl Down
(My only girl-power song that I can think of offhand, I think you might appreciate lyrics like 'a roundhouse kick will leave you dead'.)
3. A*Teens - Halfway Round the World
(You, like everyone else, seems to want to travel. This will be my pop sendoff, goddamnit ;)
4. China Dolls - You Mei You Lai
(I have no idea what the words to this song mean. I think it's in Thai? It was a rec from CJ, anyway. But it's fun, even if it makes no sense.)
5. Christine Lavin - A Musical Apology (Regretting What I Said ...)
(The song actually has a much longer title. It's fun. And vengeful. Thus = Amber.)
6. The Fables - Heave Away
(I needed a pirate/sailor song. This is it.)
7. Lit - I'm In Over My Head
(Because two out of every three Amber posts are "AAAAAAAAAAAGH! STREEEEEEEESS! Good stress! But AAAAAAAAGH!")
8. The Nylons - Prince of Darkness
(Because I've been remarkably camp-free thus far. I think you could appreciate the amusement factor of this entry.)
9. Reel Big Fish - Leaving on a Jet Plane
(This is my nod to your love for hearing about Aberrant. This song cover = Jake's first song ever sung for the group. He never really lived it down.)
10. The Black Mages - Those Who Fight Further
(Video games + rock = true love. I can only assume that applies for you, too.)
1. A Perfect Circle - Orestes
(It's the first song I think when I think "dark subject matter".)
2. Dave Navarro - Avoiding the Angel
(This one probably rates as the most depressing song I know. Also has connotations to Vampire for me, which went back to you.)
3. Mike Oldfield - Far Above the Clouds
(Non-vocal. Well, a little kid talking. And a few other things. Mostly instrumental.)
4. Prodigy - Narayan
(I knew I was going to choose one song by Prodigy... It wound up being this one. Why? I think it's the most danceable-to.)
5. Slipknot - Wait and Bleed
(Uh... This actually came up on my playlist as I was cycling through songs and I was like, 'yeah... David'. I just have mental images of you slamming around to it.)
6. Stratovarius - Millenium
(It's not JPOP, but it is foreigners... Swedes, I think? Anyway, it's fast. Honestly, that's a pretty big consideration. Not as angry, sad or weird as some of the others.)
7. System of a Down - Aerials
(I did consider Chop Suey, but I figured that was a copout. However, you did not specify angry, just dark... I think this is dark, myself. Maybe not your usual dark, but it's certainly not a happy-making song.)
8. The Tea Party - Angels
(It's a get away from it all type song.)
9. UnWoman - Envy
(This is another one with the synth involved, I think. Anyway, it's sad and kind of weird.)
10. Beborn Beton - Hemoglobin
(Another one for mostly the vampire associations. What can I say - two years of LARP pretty much cemented you in the whole vampire mindset for me.)
Doug, you'll have to wait a little bit - even just these two lists took me a while.
