Aka. "Destination Anywhere", "The Boy and Girl from County Bavaria"... After a very intense year in Würzburg (Germany), I'm back in Salamanca. I probably won't have that many experiences to write, but there's always an excuse to post a new entry!

1. What is your favorite song of all time! Pick one, no lists:

Moonlight Shadow - Mike Oldfield

2. Name your favorite lyric from that favorite song, and tell us why its your favorite lyric?

Stars moved slowly in a silvery night - It's so poetic and so visual!

3. Write down lyrics from any song, that make you sad:

He put that bottle to his face and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memorye
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up of his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said "I'll love her till I die"
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

Whiskey Lullaby - Brad Paisley feat. Allison Krauss

4. Write down lyrics from any song that actually could cause you to cry, and why:

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

My immortal - Evanescence

It's probably one of the saddest songs ever, and even more after knowing what it is about (note: I don't like Evanescence)

5. Write down your favorite Michael Jackson (R.I.P) lyrics:

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son

Billie Jean - Michael Jackson

6. What lyrics from any song makes you instantly happy?

Hey! Read my lips
'Cause all they say is kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss
No, it won't ever stop
My hands are in the air, yes I'm in love

My heart is beating like a jungle drum

Jungle Drum - Emiliana Torrini

7. What lyrics make you want to dance?

Come on, girl, believe me

I'll make you see

That I am the true way to ecstasy

Touch me, feel me

And you will find

We were meant to be

And I ain't lying

Let Me Think About It - Ida Corr feat. Fedde LaGrand

8. Write down the lyrics from a song that make you sing out loud:

Master
Apprentice
Heartborne
Seventh Seeker
Warrior
Disciple
In me the wishmaster

Wishmaster - Nightwish (ok, pretty much anything by Nightwish or Within Temptation... if only I could sing like those ladies...)

9. Write down the lyrics from a song that most reflects you:

I haven't ever really had a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize if once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I minded your heart being exactly breaking
It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

Life for rent - Dido

10. Write down the lyrics that make you think of your best friend:

No fear, no shame
We play this game
And the best thing about it
Is I don't even know your name

Hey! Okay! Why don't you stay another day?
And if it feels alright, won't you stay another night?

Hey! Okay! - Agua de Annique (I could totally picture hair singing this song)

11. Write the lyrics that make you think of your significant other/crush:

My ex:

I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place.
And you're still probably working
At a 9 to 5 pace
I wonder how bad that tastes

When you see my face
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
I hope it gives you hell, I hope it gives you hell

Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car
Did it ever get you far?
You never seem so tense, love
Never seen you fall so hard
Do you know where you are?

Truth be told I miss you
Truth be told I'm lying

Gives You Hell - All American Rejects (I'm soooooo proud of this one! xD)

My current/crush (which I don't have):

Never stop hoping

Need to know where you are

'Cause one thing's for sure

You're always in my heart

I'll find you somewhere

I'll keep on trying

Until my dying day

Somewhere - Within Temptation

12. Write the lyrics that make you want to fight:

I hope that you never
Get the things you want to do
Now I cast this spell on you
Complicate your life

Hope you get a punchure
Everywhere you ever drive
Hope the sun beats down on you
And skin yourself alive

Loud and clear - The Cranberries

13. Write down your favorite Eminem lyrics:

I always hated him, but if I have to do it...

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

Lose Yourself - Eminem

14. Write down lyrics you cannot stand, yet are considered popular:

Me muero por besarte
Dormirme en tu boca
Me muero por decirte
Que el mundo se equivoca

Me muero - La Quinta Estación (well, any song by this band annoys me like hell)

15. Write down lyrics from a song you are sick of hearing:

La llaman reina de las diosas
La más coqueta, la más hermosa
Es tan rabiosamente bella
Que les da miedo con sólo mirar

La reina de las diosas - Marcos Llunas (they always play it in my gym)

16. Write down lyrics that make you smile:

A-well-a bird, bird, b-bird's the word
A-well-a don't you know about the bird?
Well, everybody knows that the bird is the word!

Surfin' Bird - The Trashmen

17. Write down your favorite love song lyrics:

I'm gonna show you how to take me
Go down, go down, oh
I'll show you how to turn me
Right on, right on, oh
I'll show you how to touch me
Right on, right on, right on
Right on, right on, right on

Independent Love Song - Scarlet

18. Write down the lyrics from a song that make you think of your family:

Father wears his Sunday vest
Mother's tired, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up downstairs
Sister sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our House - Madness

19. Write down the lyrics that make you feel like there is still hope:

Oh, this night is too long
Have no strength to go on
No more pain, I'm floating away
Through the mist see the face
Of an angel who calls my name
I remember
You're the reason I have to stay

Have to try
To break free from the thoughts in my mind
Use the time that I have I can't say
Goodbye
Have to make it right

Have to try
'Cause I know in the end it's worthwhile
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away
It will be alright

Pale - Within Temptation (I really sing this to myself when I'm feeling down)

20. Write down the lyrics that make you feel hate:

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Every step that I takeI have failed you
Is another mistake to you

And every second I waste is more than I can take

Numb - Linkin Park

21. Write down the best break up lyrics:

You bored me with your stories
I can't believe that I endured you for as long as I did
I'm happy it's over
I'm only sorry that I didn't make the move before you

And when you go I will remember
To send a thank you not to that girl
I see she's holding you so tender
Well I just wanna say
I never really loved you anyway

I Never Loved You Anyway - The Corrs

22. Share with us your lyrics that make you want to work out:

I feel the waves begin to rise
Far across the ocean
Deep within your eyes
Silently watching as they fall
I can see the future
Locked within the crystal ball

Locked within the crystal ball - Blackmore's Night (I don't know why, but the rhythm makes me want to do something like aerobics)

23. Write down lyrics from the very first song you remember falling in love with:

Say it's true
There's nothing like me and you
I'm not alone
Tell me you feel it too

Runaway - The Corrs

24. Write down lyrics from a song you can remember from your childhood:

Hands up, baby, hands up,
Gimme your heart, gimme, gimme your heart
Gimme gimme
Hands up, baby, hands up,
Gimme your heart, gimme, gimme your heart
Gimme gimme
All your love,
All your love.

Hands up - Ottawan

25. Write down lyrics from a song that you will play at your wedding one day:

How I long to see you here before me
Your smile will light the sun
To feel the sweet sensation washing over me
To melt in your arms

Caritas - Lesiëm

26. Tell us the lyrics you would like played at your funeral:

Time telling me to say farewell
But I know that I would fight hell
And I know we will
Go for another time
We can see for another time
We'll be free for no more farewell

Farewell - Avantasia (ok, it doesn't really fit to a funeral, but I like the idea of "this is not really goodbye"... and I didn't want to use another WT song, lol)
