07-02-2008: It's time for the 2008 Lyrics Challenge! A lot has changed in the past year...like I actually know last year's winner (Anna) in person (and she still owes me a guest entry). Anyway, the rules are the same--there are lyrics from songs YOU SHOULD KNOW (there are no trick questions) that have been translated to French, then to German, then back to English. It's your job to figure out what song it is and then email me the answers. The winner gets a guest entry! Awesome!!! All entries are due by July 9th at midnight. Good luck!
Song #1
What's with this dissin' homies; my girl?
Why they have to make/received; to defy?
Which us has never, makes at
these types it made so violent?
But you know I'm of their.
And I know you; mine
And that's during the whole time.
To seem it I as fair holly the friend
And you Mary Tyler of Moorlands.
I don't care of this they say anyhow regarding we.
I don't maintain that.
Song #2
She saw that the sight in its eyes
And they knew them better
She wished this evening
And it is now or never
It does not form feels oh so sadly to him
Whoa Whoa Whoa cry Jamie

Song #5
Before a long era me, my brother we made Kyle
From Self-stop sign down long and a road alone.
Suddenly, there a shining devil source…

And so it said: "Play best song at the world or I eat the souls"
Song #6
Sometimes I feel
Like I am a business partner for you
Sometimes I feel

Only the angel city

Song #8

Thought that I heard you chriping
I tended to think I saw you testing
Song #9

Main affecting moving reach hands,
Those, outside ME, which concern you ah,
Oh, tender Caroline,
the good times seem never so well
I'm bent around you not never
07-02-2007: I haven't updated in a while so I thought I would start with something good: a lyrics contest. I took some very mainstream songs and translated them in honor of my nearly complete thesis. First I took the first verse and translated it into French. I then took the French and translated into German before taking the German back to English. Can you figure out what these songs are? Below the lyrics is a form for you to answer. The winner can write a guest entry! Today's image is a hint for Song #1 in case you're not a big Hendrix fan. NOTE: once you submit you'll just get redirected back to this page. Rest assured your form has been successfully submitted.
Song #1
Well, I rise beside a mountain
and I it cut swallow with the edge of my hand
Well, I upwards hold it beside a blow of axe of mountain downwards with the edge of my hand
Well, I take all the pieces and make an island could even raise a small sand
Song #2
each time I look in the mirror
the lines on my face obtaining more clearly
the past suited him
ran out as the twilight at dawn
is not than the manner
everyone obtained their rights in the life to pay
Song #3
I would want that you know
that that I am not lucky for you
I wish anything am it only, but the best for you
is an older version of me it spoiled than me?
Would it go downward on you in a theatre? Does she speak by Ă©loquence
she would have her your baby?
I am sure that she would make a really protruding nut/mother (haha, I laughed hysterically at protruding nut/mother for twenty minutes)
Song #4
Just a small city girl
who lives in an isolated world
took it the train of midnight
to which everywhere it goes
just at Detroit of the south more born and highly
city boy that he took the train of midnight
to which everywhere goes
Song #5
There is a ramme(?) which has surely everything
which sparkles is, but and it buys stairs in the sky
and if it arrives there, it knows whether the shops
with a word are closed to receive that it can
which came it the problem of
OH OH OH OH OH
and them buy stairs in the sky
Song #6 (hint: NOT a rock song)
Here the thing, which we began outside of the friends
it made costs, but that was everything you pretends
yes yes, since you are dedicated gone
you taken up the time was mentioned to I you mine
yes yes since you not, long, had gone
Song #7 (pop, not rock)
Because it inherited the window
which it the noise of a Crescendos
was it inherited left his apartment
it the blood marks on the carpet
it under the table
it see run could that it could not in such a way
put it run in the room it down downward struck
it was their unfortunate fate
Song #8
Everyone aboard!
crazy but that one is
how it goes from the millions the person life
because the enemies too much perhaps
is not it in delay to like in order to learn, how and forgets
how the mental injuries
to abhor welfare a bitter dishonor of the life
I go over from the rails on a crazy course
I go over from the rails on a crazy course
Song #9
Roxan
you may not place the red light above
that these days are not more you your body to the night
Roxan
sell may you this dress carry may not to go this evening
the roads for the money
that you do not worry you, if it is wrong, or if it is correct
Song #10
I see a small shadow a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will make you fandango
to coup of lightning, and lightning very awful very much me
(Galilée), Galilée (Galilée), Galilée bar beer of Galilée Magnifico
I is fairly a poor boy, and nobody likes me
it is just a poor boy of a poor family
saves that its life of this monstrosity
Venu simple, simply to disappear
will that you let Bismillah leave me!
Will we you not let leave (to leave it to go!) Bismillah!
We will you not let leave (to leave it to go!) Bismillah!
We will you not let to leave (to leave it to go) it leave not to leave (to leave it to go) it to leave (to leave it to go) ampèreheure
Non not to leave, not, not, not, not, not, not
(Mia. mummy of the OH, Mia. mummy)
Mia. mummy me let to go
Beelzebub leave at a side devil for me, for me for me to place
07-02-2006: jamie, chris, michael and I piled into the speed machine around 9:15am and headed off to the beautiful beaches of Destin. It was painfully hot but nonetheless a fun day. I tried to buy a suit for my upcoming trip to Orlando at the Outlet Mall but alas they did not have my size. My size, just so you know, is a 40L. I did manage to spend a little bit of money elsewhere but on the whole the shopping wasn't as good compared to when Jamie and I went last year for our two year anniversary.
So we're almost caught up on Lost. We've learned that Henry Gale is one of The Others and Sayid dug up his "wife", Hurley is totally crazy (along with his mega-crush Libby), Locke's dad screwed him up even worse than we thought and Sun is pregnant with a baby we do not suspect to be Jin's. We only have six episodes left in the season despite our best rationing. When does the new season start? I'd hate to have a big gap between the last episode we see and the start of the next season. It's going to really suck to have to sit through commercials and not be able to start the next episode when they leave you with a cliffhanger. 07-02-2005: I had a pretty quiet day until about 5:30am when Ab woke up. Jamie went to Alligator Point to relax at the beach so I was on pup patrol. Since Abby wouldn't go back to sleep I brought her and Chompy on a two hour car ride around town. I managed to not get lost despite driving around with that intent. Jamie took Chris and out to dinner to Bennigan's as a thank you for helping her move last weekend. We then hit up the new Hollywood Video they built across the street and got a couple of movies. We watched Sideways and it was pretty good. I had read about half of the book when I first got it and it seemed to capture it pretty well. The movie reminded me of a trip that Matt Flynn and I would take in about 15 years. Not that Matt is nearly that slutty but still. Naturally, I would be the balding guy. I also rented Saw to watch when Jamie isn't around since she doesn't like scary movies. Chris saw A Beautiful Mind was for sale so I picked that up for future watching as well.
