because "Cover Songs Meme" was not as cool

So, [livejournal.com profile] saba1789 and I are cover songs worshippers and decided to make a meme to GET MOAR spread the love :)

Saba managed to keep the linkage under control... Me, not so much.

Cover songs are <3 )

Anyway, while I was browsing my cover songs folder, I came up with a game that I call "From Beatles to Bandom". The aim of this game is to connect the Beatles to someone in Bandom by means of cover songs and without using the obvious Ealeanor Rigby cover by Panic in less than 6 steps (because with Bandom, 6 degrees are too many).

I managed to win twice \o/

one. The Beatles' song "Something In The Way She Moves" has been covered by Radiohead (1), whose song "Creep" has been reworked by Bob Dylan (2), authour of the song "Desolation Row" recently covered by My Chemical Romance (3).

two. Bono and The Edge of U2 covered "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" (1), U2's song "With Or Without You" got covered by Keane (2) whose song "Everybody's Changing" has been reworked by Lily Allen (3) who also covered "Womanizer" by Britney Spears (4), whose song "Baby One More Time" got covered by Panic! (5).

:D?

If you've managed to reach this point without gnawing on your wrist, GOOD JOB! As a prize for your resiliance to my faily spazzing, I'll give you some goodies!

a. The .zip with all the songs mentioned above
b. Across the Universe OST (Complete with "All You Need is Love" that wasn't in the original cd)
c. The link to download "They Just Howl" cd, an Empires' songs cover project
d. The link to the most wonderful site The Covers Project

Ok, your turn to join the fun!

Hey, I'm late to the party, but I need to squee over here too so:
HOLY SHEEP HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEW PANIC!? AREN'T YOU SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THE NEW ALBUM? ISN'T THE RETURN OF THE ! AMAZING? DON'T YOU WANT TO DANCE AROUND THE ROOM AND THROW YOUR ARMS IN THE AIR AND JUST LAUGH AND SPIN IN CIRCLES UNTIL YOU GET DIZZY?

(You know you've gotten over the Split when you write WASP drabbles about Ryan leaving Greta's household to go with Jon to explore the wild, wide world and you don't feel bad about it)

Ok, now that we got that out of the way, how are you flist? I've been kind of shitty in the comment department lately, but I promise once I finish typing this up I'm going to check the journal filter and comment on everything :)

This reminds me: HELLO NEW FRIENDS! *waves* I... lack an intro post. I never got around to write one because I never know what to tell about myself beside random things that don't make a lot of sense...
For example )

In other news, [livejournal.com profile] bandgirlsbang just put up the list of summaries for artists and mixers. This means that I really need to finish my art assignement for [livejournal.com profile] boxofmagic (looks like I'll spend tomorrow playing with paint :D).
Also, I'm getting an iPhone in three days! You know what this means? It means that I have to find a name for it! I have Bob the iPod and William the laptop, so maybe the iPhone could be female? Go on and tell me nice phone names :)

Empires!

Flail with me? :D?

Wow... I virtually vegetated all day....
I had a lot of little things to do, none of them important, and I just started a bunch of them and didn't finish even one. I'm in that mindset where I want to do things, but I'm not ready to do them.... This happens to me a lot. It's like, if I'm not keyed up enough to complete a task in a way that will result in an amazing outcome, then it's not the right time to start it. Usually I can work myself up and then focus on one thing and do it, but today I really couldn't. I should be upset with myself , but I'm not... which upsets me >:[

Ok, change of topic!

If you amuse yourself doing art (of any kind, really! Graphics in general count!) and you want a tough challenge with hardcore prompts go to [livejournal.com profile] art_bingo, join the community and leave a comment asking for a bingo card for the "It's a Small World Challenge". The prompts are kinda hard, but that's the beauty of the challenge :) (also, you'll get to learn a lot of things about countries whose existence you weren't aware of :D. If only my Geography classes had been so interesting I might have studied my stuff better. Well, it's never too late.)

Since I'm a lamer who doesn't have anything better to do on Sunday night, have a nice (and hilarious) music meme :) )

I'm always disappointed when I do this kind of meme because the shuffle option on my iTunes must hate me big time. The "answers" are always either hilarious or hilariously accurate (scarily so).

Anyway. You know what's the most hilarious of all of them? The one about my wedding. Because when "Umbrella" came out I was obsessed with it and got my hands on any cover ever done of that song. I was so fixated that I went and burned myself a cd with 16 tracks of Umbrella-covers! Now, I don't want you to be jealous. Why don't you click here and burn yourselves a copy too? I even included coverart :)
And just because I'm in a present giving mood have these versions too:
Amanda Palmer sang it live.
Linkin Park did a cover when they played in London
And someone did a very Cool Mashup titled "Thnks fr th Umbrellas". You can't resist the awesome that is FOB and Rihanna in a single song.
