rivers_bend at 09:14am on 03/07/2011 under memeShuffle meme. I'mma have to cheat a little bit, because I'm pretty sure Stephen Fry reading various chapters of Harry Potter doesn't fit into the meme that well, and my shuffle LOVES HIM LIKE AIR.
So here's how it works:
1. Open your music library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc).
2. Put it on shuffle.
3. Press play.
4. For every question, type the song that's playing.
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button.
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool....
OPENING CREDITS Freedom Fighter -- Creed
WAKING UP Bits and Pieces -- Joan Jett
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL Bend to Squares -- Death Cab for Cutie (I have never even heard this song before! but my friends in school were definitely squares, and I was pretty much that girl who did what I was told, so it works)
FALLING IN LOVE Catch your Wave -- The Click Five (again. WHO? well. I have heard of Death Cab, obviously. but I have never heard of this band or song at all. But it's all Hey, girl I wanna catch your wave, hey girl, I wanna drift away with you, so I'm down!)
FIGHT SONG Aftermath (Live) -- Adam Lambert (a song I know! and this is so my fight song. Well done iTunes!)
BREAKING UP High School Heart -- John Michael Montgomery (who the fuck is John Michael Montgomery???)
PROM Ghost -- Indigo Girls (omg I love this song so much. So much more than I ever loved Prom. But last truth we ever came to from our adolescent war totally works)

MENTAL BREAKDOWN My Love Bites -- Autobody Experience (seriously. how how how do I have so much music on my iTunes that I have never heard of? dreaming of those studded-collared boys tho. I like this kind of mental breakdown)
DRIVING Half the World -- Belinda Carlisle (I would love to drive around half the world so I approve)
FLASHBACK Old Apartment -- Barenaked Ladies (PERFECTION!! this is where we used to live)
WEDDING All the Money's Gone -- Greg Brown (I hear this happens with weddings.)
BIRTH OF CHILD Never Get Old -- Sinead O'Connor (I'm pretty sure children make you older instantly)

FUNERAL SONG Raven -- Dave Matthews Band (no. just no.)
