Music For Life

This is hilarious. After reading about using your Ipod as a divinatory device (chez Maitresse), I stopped by Nessa's and found a music-player related meme. Needing to waste some time, I did it. And it's funny.

So pull out your favorite music player, put it on shuffle, and record the order of the songs. Each song is the answer to important questions in your life:

How does the world see you?
I Feel Good - James Brown
Well, now, that's snazzy

Will I have a happy life?
Lady Madonna - The Beatles
Not sure how to interpret this.

What do my friends really think of me?
Upside Down - Donna Summers
Ok, so I'm a weirdo, but a fun one!

Do people secretly lust after me?
One Nation Under a Groove - Funkadelic
Again, not sure what that means. Maybe somebody funky secretly lusts after me. Or maybe the whole funky planet does?

How can I make myself happy?
Happiness is a Warm Gun - Tori Amos
I shit you not!

What should I do with my life?
People in the Middle - Spearhead
So I guess I should just love people and stuff

Will I ever have children?
Why oh why? - Spearhead
So apparently I will have a son who likes basketball and mourns his former teammates

What is some good advice for me?
Roxanne - The Police
I dunno... you figure it out

How will I be remembered?
Et Pourtant - Charles Aznavour
Great! One line: "Sans un regret, je partirai..."

What is my signature dancing song?
That's the Way I Like It - KC and the Sunshine Band
Sure. Not the first to come to mind, but ok.

What do I think my current theme song is?
I Get High - Talib Kweli and Mos Def
Um...

What does everyone else think my current theme song is?
I Need You Tonight - INXS
Whoa.

What song will play at my funeral?
Thank You - Dido
Ok? But I have already requested "Billie Jean"

What type of men/women do you like?
Shadowboxing - GZA
It appears I like tha gangstas

What is my day going to be like?
Gold Dust - Tori Amos
I don't even know this song

I did a similar-but-different version of this a while ago: http://punclox.blogon.com/archives/002308.html#002308

just for kicks I tried your version-- and they'll apparently be playing Madonna's "Live to Tell" at my funeral! so did I live to tell the secret I have learned??
