Okay, I know this is kind of stupid, but I thought it would be fun anyway... What I thought we could do in this thread, was to gather all the if-you-were-stranded-on-an-island-and-could-only-bring-one-thing-what-would-it-be?-type questions that exist and discuss and compare.... basically best-of-lists, but more fun.:)

 

Like, for example, if you were stranded on an island, and you got to bring an iPod with only five songs on, which songs would it be? (and every song must be from a different artist or band, so you can't take 5 Coldplay-songs)

 

Or if you got a tv and a dvd-player with three movies to watch for the rest of your life, which three movies?

 

I thought we could just make up list-subjects as we go, and you know, not just music/movies/books, but random stuff as well(like what Simpsons-character would you bring with you to your island, if you could only pick one). Everyone just come up with subjects, and we'll take it from there.

 

Okay, to be a bit boring, I'll start with the first one, 5 songs from different artists/bands, I would choose:

 

- Yellow:smug:

- It's late, by Queen

- Chop Suey, by System of a Down

- Lazarus, by Porcupine Tree

- Simon, by Lifehouse

 

Okay... maybe this was a lame idea, I don't know.... Me and my friends do these things all the time when we don't have anything to do, and I just thought it might be fun to try here... :anxious: What do you think?

2.- Water

3.- A map

4.- A compass

^hee you are supposed to make a song list..:P

 

this is so freaking hard....5 songs?

 

Bittersweet symphony would definitely be one of them.

 

But the rest is too hard....it is not possible...it depends on my mood.

 

So, I'd be stranded on a deserted Island only with my bittersweet symphony...

^ One song only? :inquisitive:

well, I can't think of 5....I can only think of 12423....there those for my angry moods, for my sad moods, for my sentimental moods, for my happy moods...I find it impossbile...

 

maybe I'm gonna add "A Reminder" by Radiohead...
