Kick @$$ Song: Number Nine

Yeah Yeah Yeahs--"Maps"

The wife thinks this band is just plain weird. She's right, but I still enjoy this song. Not entirely sure why.



Pack up;
I’m straight;
Enough;
Oh say, say, say;you'll
Oh say, say, say;you'll
Oh say, say, say;you'll
Oh say, say, say;you'll
Oh say, say, say you'll

Wait, they don’t love you like I love you;
Wait, they don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you.

Made off;
Don’t stray;
Well, my kind’s your kind;
I’ll stay the same!
Pack up;
But Don’t stray;
Oh say, say, say;
I'll Oh say, say, say!

Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you;
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps;
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you!
Ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aps!
Wait! They don’t love you like I love you …

Kick @$$ Song: Number Seven & Eight

Filter: "Take a Picture"

This one and "Hey Man Nice Shot" are my two favorite Filter songs. The later because I love to listen to it to "pump up my primal manness" either before or during working out. Also, there is a common misconception concerning what the song is about. Many assumed/assume that it is about Kurt Cobain's suicide, but in fact it's about another suicide.

As for "Take a Picture?" Well, what can I say? The song has a surreal, dreamy quality to it, which is echoed in the music video as well. Recognize "Goldie" from Sin City? Also, what guy can't relate to the lyrics, "Hey dad! What do you think about your son now?"

A bit of trivia: The lead singer, Richard Patrick, is the younger brother of the T-1000.



Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
My skin is bare
My skin is theirs
Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
My skin is bare
My skin is theirs

I feel like new-born
And I feel like a new-born
Awake on my airplane
Awake on my airplane
I feel so real

Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember - yeah

I don't believe in
I don't believe in your sanctity; or privacy
I don't believe in
I don't believe in sanctity or hypocrisy
Can everyone agree that no one should be left alone
Can everyone agree that they should not be left alone
And I feel like a new-born
And I feel like a new-born (kicking and screaming)

Could you take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you take my picture
Cuz I won't remember - yeah

Hey dad what do you think about your son now?
Hey dad what do you think about your son now?

Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember
Could you wanna take my picture
Cuz I won't remember - yeah

How Some Movies Should Have Ended

Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope



The Lord of the Rings



Superman



Spider-Man 3



The Matrix Trilogy



Braveheart



The Blair Witch Project



There are some other ones out there, but those were the ones I found most amusing. I found the Star Wars and Lord of the Rings ones to be particularly funny, and the Superman/Batman exchange in both the Superman & Spider-Man 3 videos was enjoyable as well. The Braveheart video is just...odd.
