Yay letter W. :|
Comment to this post and I'll give you a letter. In your journal, list 10 of your favorite songs that begin with that letter. Then, post in your own, if you see fit.
1) Yasunori Mitsuda - World Revolution (Brink of Time remix)
Yes, the final boss music from Chrono Trigger. I love love love this song. <3 <3 <3. The especially brassy trumpets in the Brink of Time arrangement add a certain... odd flair to it that you grow to love.
2) Dragon Half - Watashi no Tamagoyaki
Nobody really knows who the singer of this song is, do they? I know the song itself rips off various pieces from Beethoven wholesale, but... a Japanese singer singing about omelettes and tomatoes... Perky-happy, which was just damn perfect for Dragon Half, and is probably one of my favorite animoo songs to date.
3) The Association - Windy
This song is from like the sixties, or seventies, or some other time when people loved each other and LSD. I don't know why I love this song so much, but it's very probably because of the lulz caused by mental images of putting a Card Captor Sakura AMV to this song.
4) Slipknot - Wait and Bleed
Yes, Slipknot is decidedly emo "I HATE YOU ALL GONNA GO SLIT MY WRISTS NOW :(" death metal. I know. However, due to events that have gone on in a RP I do recently, this song has found itself on my playlist frequently. And I can't help headbanging to it, dammit.
5) Nine Inch Nails - We're In This Together Now
Speaking of emo hate music... I first found this during a stint I had with deluding myself into thinking I was dating a lesbian even though it was online and I was confusing deep friendship style love for 'I want to marry you' love. Regardless, I've always thought this fairly...fitting for me at my worst.
6) Information Society - What's On Your Mind (Pure Energy)
I love Sega. With the original run of Sega CD systems, SoA released a 'Rock Paintings' CD+G CD, which included (amongst other things) this song. This is pure late-80s/early-90s new age schmaltz, and I love it.
7) Chris Issak - Wicked Game
Man, where has this song gone? Back when I was younger, this used to be the ultimate 'get a girl wet for you' song if you could sing it like Chris.
8) Bon Jovi - Wanted, Dead or Alive
I'M A COWBOYYY ON A STEEEEEEEL HORSE I RIIIIDE
9) Duran Duran - Wild Boys
There aren't any other Duran Duran songs I have that start with W. I heart Duran Duran. And the song is a good example of how they were awesome back then. (Not that their stuff circa Astronaut is bad or anything!)
10) Green Day - Whatsername
At first I saw this as more of a 'bonus song' to the rock opera that is American Idiot, but now I think it's one of the most approachable, catchy songs on the album. Why, exactly, do people never play it on the radio? Why the hell did they focus on Wake Me Up When September Ends? Were they all SIVNIOGHRIO ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG 9/11 NEVAR FORGET? If so, I want to kick them.
