The iPod Prophecies

I’ve never done this game before, so I thought I’d give it a try…. At first, I was a bit wary of exposing the bitter truth to my musical side. Mainly, that I don’t have a wide knowledge of musicians or genres like many of my peers. That being said, I’m not going to hide behind a desk and hope to avoid mass judgement! I like what I like, and love to open my ears to new stuff whenever I can. So, I am taking the plunge!

Here are the songs that describe my life, according to iPod shuffle. With my comments of course ;)

DIRECTIONS:

1.Put your iPod on shuffle.
2 Type in the song name as an answer to each question (no matter how weird it is).
3 Go to the next song on your iPod for the answer to the next question.


What do your friends think of you?
Hey Jude- Beatles

Guess I am a sad song all my friends are trying to make better… Thanks friends, I am glad you are so determined to be with me through it all. J

If someone says "Is this ok?" You say?

Love Drunk- Boys Like Girls

LOL  “Is this ok? “I used to be love drunk, and now I’m hungover.” Looks like I am very frank with others…
How would you describe yourself?

October- Evanescence

Well… that song is depressing. At least October is my birth month.

What do you like in a guy/girl?

Seasons of Love- Rent cast. 

Oh my goodness. Well, that is probably accurate. I dolook for a guy who loves me/others in spring, summer, fall, AND winter. 

How do you feel today?
I Knew You Were Trouble- T-swift!

So I suppose I’m feeling… bitter? Vengeful towards men? Regretful about my life choices? Geez, iPod, you’re not very optimistic today.
What's your life's purpose?

We Both Know- Colbie Calliat ft. Gavin DeGraw.

Does that mean my life’s purpose is to have meaningful relationships with good communication? I am more than ok with that! Yes!!! Fifty points for the mind behind the ipod curtain!

What's your motto?

Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles.

Wow. I could not think of a more perfect motto! Not only is this one of my all-time favorite songs, but it is also a life philosophy I have always abided by.  Goody!

What do you think about very often?

Forget me not- The Civil Wars

So I guess I often think about how to be unforgettable? A bit of a stretch, but this does remind of my senior quote: “In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different,”-Coco Chanel.  You know that’s uncanny.

What's 2+2?

Hello- Karmin

Ha. This answer perfectly “sums up” my mathematical ability.  What is 4+4? Red. If you have 10 basketballs and 11 footballs, how many pancakes fit on the roof? None, because aliens don’t wear hats. I’ve never understood math, but I accept that about myself!

What do you think of your best friend?
Just a Dream- Nelly

Does that mean I don’t have real friends? They’re all just in my head? How sad.  I am either lonely enough to have imaginary friends as my only company, or crazy enough to have friends that exist solely in my mind.  Success.
What do you think of the person you like?
Breathe (2AM)- Anna Nalick

So I guess I think the person I theoretically like is a drunkard with beautiful eyes? I suppose the rest of it is appropriate; I do need take a chill pill most of the time. 
What is your life story?

Good N’ Evil- Jekyll and Hyde

I knew broadway music was bound to pop up sooner of later.  Well, it would be wrong to say my life hasn’t been a combination good and evil. Although this song is very naughty, and I would like to believe I have more morals than a lady of the evening.  Let’s hope.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

Maybe- Ingrid Michaelson

According to Mr. Shuffle, I want to grow up to be someone who waits around for my lover to return to me.  Oh great. That sounds a lot like a crazy cat lady who can’t let go of the past.  Might as well start calling me Ms. Havisham.  I am going to sit around in my wedding dress for millions of years waiting for my estranged husband to return. *Sigh*

What will you dance to at your wedding?
Can’t Help Falling in Love- Ingrid Michaelson cover.

Well… that is perfect.  Such a beautiful song, and Ingrid Michaelson has an amazing voice. I am pleased. 
What will they play at your funeral?

Im Ready- Jack’s Mannequin

… I’m ready. Ready to die? I guess when I am dead I will be ready for the afterlife.  See? It could be a positive thing.  And this concludes my thoughts of death for the day.  I will leave the morbid details of passing to Moaning Myrtle. 

What's your hobby/interests?
The Feeling- Ben Rector

My hobby is feeling.  Ha! I am an emotional being, and I love most everyone, so I guess my hobby could be feeling.  Or listening to this song, because Ben Rector rocks. 
What is your biggest fear?

Brokenhearted-Karmin

My biggest fear is being alone, so this is actually pretty close to true! Mr. Shuffle understands my soul.  Brillant.
What do you think of your friends?

When You Get Home, You’re So Dead- Mayday Parade

My friends can be very sassy, and they are often at my house, so I think this fits very well.  Let it be known I love them, even when I want to smack them sometimes!

What will you post this as?
Good Life- One Republic

Just as I hoped, we end on an optimistic note.  As is life… We all go through periods of turmoil and suffering, but each and every day, God shows us little miracles. My secret to happiness is to count all the wonderful, beautiful parts of life, and ignore the sour bits that only serve to weigh me down. 

I would love to hear everyone else’s iPod story! Copy and paste this into facebook or blogger and make musical history!
