May be a regular posting, but who am I kidding?
Must play loudly for full understanding of the work week I have ahead of me.

Justin's Charlotte's Web
"I made this trailer for a "Pro Tools" class project at DVC College in California. All I had to work with was the original trailer on mute. I composed all the music and added the sound effects. I recorded my family and friends for the voices used in the trailer. This is the first trailer I've ever worked on... I loved putting this together and can see myself working with music/film in the future. I hope you'll enjoy it too. Please let me know what you think. Thanks Justin"

Hurting for substance, meme it is
Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing. I copied the first lines from a lyrics site because I'm lazy.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: For those who are guessing -- looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.
- Peace up, a Town Down, Yeah! Okay! (Yeah!, Usher)
- Oh oh, day in, day out, sidewalk sleeps turn about (Where are we going?, Marvin Gaye)
I keep your picture beside my bed(Sara: How come you dont call me anymore, Alicia Keys)L.L. Cool J is hard as hell(Sara: Rock the Bells, LL Cool J)- Nah, nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah, nah nah nah...I'm the lyrical gangsta (I left out the next line because it's the name of the song. I'm sure I got the Nah's wrong.) (Here Comes the Hotstepper, Ini Kamoze)
Well, I just got into town about an hour ago(Christina: L.A. Woman, Doors)- Do what I want cause I can and if I don't because I wanna be ignored by the stiff and the board (Hate To Say I Told You So, The Hives)
Don't let it go away(Christina: New, No Doubt)If you want my lovin(Sara: Baby I love you, Aretha)- Come closer and see, see into the trees, find the girl, if you can (A Forest, The Cure)
After removing all songs from the list that didn't have a title or artist as well as removing all non-English songs, and songs whose first line was the title, here are the top 10 from my shuffle. I feel like I probably should have included more of the lyrics, but then again, maybe not.
Good luck.

Pearl Jam - Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town
I was in a restaurant bathroom the other day and this song was playing. After I washed my hands I found myself standing there listening to the rest of the song before leaving. I'm not sure if it was just because I haven't heard it in awhile or if it stuck me for some other reason. Either way I thought I would share it with you.
I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place, I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me, you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former
It's hard when, you're stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream...hello...
My god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are, and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away

On Vox: QotD: I'm A Completist
Do you own all the albums of any particular musical artist or group? Who?
Submitted by dutterman.
Music is like my Liberal Studies degree. I like variety so buying many records of the same person doesn't usually interest me. I doubt I have more than 2 albums of the same person in all of my Cd's. I am the person who will buy one album, love it to death, listen to all the time, for years, and never buy another album of that artist simply because it doesn't cross my mind to do so. If it's an artist that has been around a long time, I'll pick up the greatest hits and be content with that. I enjoy music, but I'm not into the history of the artist, their never before released live CD, the follow up CD to their debut album, their tour dates, or anything else really. Now a days I end up with an album because I hear a song I really like in a movie or on the radio and yes I will go buy the album instead of downloading just the one song on-line. I would say I buy about 1 or 2 albums a year which tells you how often I find music I feel is worth spending money on. It has nothing to do with being against downloading music, I use to do it all the time, it has to do with me not wanting to take the time and effort to get the music off the Internet. I know that sounds lazy, its not that, it's just not a priority. I'm sure I'm missing out on all sorts of great music by artists I already love, but really, I don't care because I've already got my goto album for them. Show me something I don't have, then maybe I'll listen.
