What are you listening to?

TB · Oct 19, 2008 5:23 AM

I thought this would be a good way to discover new music and find out others' tastes. Basically, you post a song that you have listened to lately or listen to alot. Also post a youtube link to the song (if there is one) and some lyrics. It's not necessary to post the lyrics if you don't want to.

NO flame wars over bands! mad

Like so:

The Distance by Cake

Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__PU5CVS … re=related

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.
The arena is empty except for one man,
Still driving and striving as fast as he can.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But hes driving and striving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

Hes going the distance.
Hes going for speed.
Shes all alone
In her time of need.
Because hes racing and pacing and plotting the course,
Hes fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
Hes going the distance.

No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
Hes haunted by something he cannot define.
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force.
In his mind, hes still driving,still making the grade.
Shes hoping in time that her memories will fade.
Cause hes racing and pacing and plotting the course,
Hes fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But hes striving and driving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

Cause hes going the distance.
Hes going for speed.
Shes all alone
In her time of need.
Because hes racing and pacing and plotting the course,
Hes fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
Hes racing and pacing and plotting the course,
Hes fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
Hes going the distance.
Hes going for speed.
Hes going the distance.

Smash by The Offspring - EXPLICIT

Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7y7EvcnnKw

Head over heels I've fit in before
Now I don't wanna do it no more
I've held it all in with blood on my face
Built it up man so bad you can taste

I don't slag no one
I don't even judge
Don't give a sh-t 'cause I'm not gonna budge
I just want to be who I want to be
Guess that's hard for others to see

[Chorus]
I'm not a trendy a--hole
I do what I want
I do what I feel like
I'm not a trendy a--hole
Don't give a f-ck
If it's good enough for you
'Cause I am alive

Smash is the way you feel all alone
Like an outcast you're out on your own
Smash is the way you deal with your life
Like an outcast you're smashing your strife

Head over heels I've fit in before
Now I don't want to do it no more
I just want to be who I want to be
Guess that's hard for others to see

Aicebo · Oct 19, 2008 6:24 AM

Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny (Subtitles can be chosen):

http://2ch.ru/f/src/1223585287336.swf

Lyrics:

Old Godzilla was hopping around,
Tokyo City like a big playground.
When suddenly Batman burst from the shade,
and hit Godzilla with a Batgrenade.
Godzilla got *bleep*ed and began to attack,
but didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq.
Who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq Fu,
when Aaron Carter came out of the blue.

And he started beating up Shaquille O'Neal,
then they both got flattened by the Batmobile.
but before it could make it back to the Batcave,
Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave.
And took an AK47 out from under his hat,
and blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat.
But he ran out of bullets and he ran away,
because Optimus Prime came to save the day.

This is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see.
And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be.
This is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny

Godzilla took a bite out of Optimus Prime,
like Scruff McGruff took a bite out of crime.
And then Shaq came back covered in a tire track,
but Jackie Chan jumped out and landed on his back.
And Batman was injured, and trying to get steady,
when Abraham Lincoln came back with a machete.
But suddenly something caught his leg and he tripped,
Indiana Jones took him out with his whip.

Then he saw Godzilla sneaking up from behind,
and he reached for his gun which he just couldn't find.
'Cause Batman stole it and he shot and he missed,
and Jackie Chan deflected it with his fist.
Then he jumped in the air and did a summersault,
while Abraham Lincoln tried to pole vault.
onto Optimus Prime, but they collided in the air.
then they both got hit by a Care Bear Stare.

This is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see.
And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be.
This is the Ultimate Showdown...

Angels sang out in immaculate chorus,
down from the heavens descended Chuck Norris.
Who delivered a kick which could shatter bones,
into the crotch of Indiana Jones.
Who fell over on the ground, writhing in pain,
as Batman changed back into Bruce Wayne.
but Chuck saw through his clever disguise,
and he crushed Batman's head in between his thighs.

Then Gandalf the Grey and Gandalf the White and
Monty Python and the Holy Grail's Black Knight.

And Benito Mussolini and The Blue Meanie,
and Cowboy Curtis and Jambi the Genie

Robocop, the Terminator,
Captain Kirk, and Darth Vader

Lo Pan, Superman,
every single Power Ranger.

Bill S. Preston and Theodore Logan,
Spock, The Rock, Doc Ock, and Hulk Hogan -

All came out of no where lightning fast,
And they kicked Chuck Norris in his cowboy *bleep*.
It was the bloodiest battle the world ever saw,
with civilians looking on total awe.

And the fight raged on for a century,
many lives were claimed, but eventually.
The champion stood, the rest saw their better:
Mr. Rogers in a bloodstained sweater.

This is the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.
Good guys, bad guys, and explosions as far as the eye can see.
And only one will survive, I wonder who it will be.
This is the Ultimate Showdown...
This is the Ultimate Showdown...
This is the Ultimate Showdown...

Come Back by Foo Fighters

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOJ5kntI_GM

Moving, again
Comfort of the chase
Now and again
This my saving grace

Dead on the inside I've got nothing to prove
Keep me alive and give me something to lose
Goodbye, this time
Leaving you
I've been gone so long, so, gone so long
But I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
For you

Changes, changing
Back and forth again
Trading faces
Strangers in the end

Dead on the inside I've got nothing to prove
Keep me alive and give me something to lose
Goodbye, this time
Leaving you
I've been gone so long, so, gone so long
But I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
For you
For you

I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
For you
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
I will come back
