Lord. I want to start posting again -- but I do hope it's not going to be all memes!
rahalia_cat tagged me, so here I go.
Six songs that I really enjoy and/or mean a lot to me [in no particular order]:
01 : Loreena McKennitt - Full Circle
Now, this one is first because it really truly is my favourite song ever. I wish I had more to say about it than that, but I'm not sure I do. I think this is just one of the most stunningly beautiful songs I've ever heard. And it makes me think of
deerdancer, because she's the darling soul who introduced me to Loreena's music. *happy sigh*
02 : Frou Frou - Let Go
This is an incredible song. Stirring and different and wow. See, the more I like something, the harder and harder it gets for me to really talk about it. Alas and woe. But yes, I love this.
03 : October Project - Paths of Desire
It's a toss-up between OP and U2, for being my favourite band. This is my favourite October Project song. October Project makes me happy. I think I may have also indirectly influenced a lot of fandom into October Project...
04 : U2 - Where the Streets Have No Name
Oh oh oh but this song just makes me stop and listen and just feel. Which is bad, because it's a fantastic driving song ;) Also, it's really difficult for me to pinpoint my favourite U2 song, but this one just has a really special place in my heart, even though I'm not sure that it's really my favourite.
05 : Sting - Why Should I Cry For You?
*squee* Actually, really, just see above for my U2 comments. But this is a fantastically gorgeous song. ♥
06 : Sarah McLachlan - Do What You Have To Do
This song makes me ache in such a good (but not porny!) sort of way. Again with the ♥.
Honourable Mentions:
Depeche Mode - I Feel You; Melissa Etheridge - The Different; Blue Rodeo - 5 Days In May; Keane - Bedshaped; Enya - Book of Days; Nightwish - Dead Boy's Poem; Bach - Prelude from Unaccompanied Cello Suite No 1 in G Major; Dead Can Dance - Sanvean; Kate Bush - Under Ice; Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard - Now We Are Free; Jann Arden - I Would Die For You
So who can tell me just how many songs above I've vidded to? *g* Bonus points to anybody who can tell me which of the songs above I've made a vid to, but never ever released because of the paranoia that I do way too many cliched songs.
And, gacked from
faramir_boromir, a movie meme.
( 114. This list is skewed towards two genres that I don't watch pretty well on principle. Guess what those genres are! *G* )

Movie quote meme... again!
Jan. 11th, 2005 09:03 pmOkay, since last night's was all guessed up, except for one of the quotations, within something like twenty minutes, here we go again. With added obscurity! Maybe.

1. Pick one dozen movies that are ones that you have special feelings about.
2. Pick a few lines of dialogue that mean something to you.
3. As people guess the film, strike out that entry.
4. If possible, after the film is guessed, explain why that movie made the list.
( Ash has a clever, clever flist. Or made this way too easy. )
deerdancer, wherever you might be, #10 is dedicated especially to you. Cookies to anybody else who recognises it!
ETA:
Okay, obviously, this was way too freaking easy. Am off to plot!
