Skinned Alive

It's all so stupid. The songs are unbelievably shit, and the voting system is completely stupid. Countries always just give 12 points to their neighbours - Ukraine and Russia always do it, Sweden and Finland always do it, Turkey and Greece always do it. It's all political voting, which is just rediculous - can you imagine how stupid it is for a government to get worked up because their "friends" didn't give them 10 or 12 points in a contest to see whose song is the least shit? Our commentator Terry Wogan was laughing so hard because he, like all of us, correctly guessed who was getting full points from every country. The Eurovision Song Contest is a farce. I didn't watch it for the last 3 years, and I wish I hadn't wasted my time this year. Don't get me wrong, I'm not annoyed because we didn't win. I couldn't care less if we won or not. It was just a complete joke and a waste of everyone's time. And sorry if I annoy you Theresa, but I thought Germany's song was horrendous. But then, the only song I thought had any quality about it was the Cyprus entry. Even the UK entry was shocking.

Radiohead - How To Disappear Completely That there that's not me I go where I please I walk through walls And float down the liffey I'm not here This isn't happening In a little while I'll be gone The moment's already passed Yeah, it's gone I'm not here This isn't happening Strobe lights and blown speakers Fireworks and hurricanes I'm not here This isn't happening

common knowledge (or "common sense") is stuff you could (and should) easily have picked up by yourself, and you can safely assume that pretty much everyone knows. stuff like Pythagoras' Theorem, and Newton's laws of physics, and the dates the Roman Emperors were born and when they died, and how the nervous system works. These things are NOT common sense.

Britney Avril is one of the least charismatic people I've ever seen. She is a complete joke. At least Britney has some dignity - she might not have a lot, but she's got more than Avril has ever had, or will ever have.

I saw Pulp Fiction again on DVD last night Best. Film. Ever.

Oasis - Sad Song Sing a sad song in a lonely place And try to put a word in for me It's been so long since I found a space You'd better put in two or three We as people are just walking 'round Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground What we don't see, well it can't be real What we don't touch we cannot feel Where we're living in this town The sun is coming up and it's going down But it's all just the same at the end of the day And we cheat and we lie Nobody says it's wrong so we don't ask why Cos it's all just the same at the end of the day We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away At the end of the day If you're needing something I can give You know I'll help you if I can If you're honest and you say that you did You know that I would give you my hand Or a sad song in a lonely place I'll try to put a word in for you Need a shoulder? Well, if that's the case You know there's nothing I wouldn't do Where we're living in this town The sun is coming up and it's going down But it's all just the same at the end of the day And we cheat and we lie Nobody says it's wrong so we don't ask why Cos it's all just the same at the end of the day We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away At the end of the day

Oasis - Let's All Make Believe Is anyone here prepared to say Just what they mean or is it too late For anyone here to try to do Just what it take to get through to you? Let's all make believe We're still friends and we like each other Let's all make believe In the end we're gonna need each other Strangle my hope and make me pray To a God I've never seen but who I betray To the people who live the afterlife In a place I'll never be till I'm crucified Let's all make believe We're still friends and we like each other Let's all make believe In the end we'll need each other Let's all make believe That all mankind's gonna feed our brother Let's all make believe That in the end we won't grow old

Oasis - Round Are Way The paperboy is working before he goes He's lying to the teacher who knows he knows He didn't and he should've brought his lines in yesterday Ernie bangs the sound as the day begins The letterbox is open your cash falls in I'll meet you at the office just before the staff clock in Round Are Way the birds are singing Round Are Way the sun shines bright Round Are Way the birds sing for you Cos they already know you Cos they already know you The game is kicking off in and 'round the park It's twenty-five a side and before it's dark There's gonna be a loser and you know the next goal wins Cab it to the front as it's called a draw Everybody's knocking on yours once more Ernie bangs the sound and no-one's spoken since half-past four Round Are Way the birds are singing Round Are Way the sun shines bright Round Are Way the birds sing for you Cos they already know you Cos they already know you Round Are Way the birds are singing Round Are Way the sun shines bright Round Are Way the birds are minging Round Are Way it's alright Round Are Way the birds sing for you Cos they already know you Cos they already know you

UNKLE (featuring Thom Yorke & DJ Shadow) - Rabbit In Your Headlights I'm a rabbit in your headlights Scared of the spotlight You don't come to visit I'm stuck in this bed Thin rubber gloves She laughs when she's crying She cries when she's laughing Fat bloody fingers Are sucking your soul away I'm a rabbit in your headlights Christian suburbanite Washed down the toilet Money to burn Fat bloody fingers Are sucking your soul away If you're frightened of dying And then you're holding on You'll see devils tearing your life away But if you've made your peace Then the devils are really angels Freeing you from the Earth White worms on the underground Caught between stations Butterfingers I'm losing my patience I'm a rabbit in your headlights Christian suburbanite You've got money to burn Fat bloody fingers Are sucking your soul away

why yes! however did you guess? :o :D

Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out) Rows of houses all bearing down on me I can feel their blue hands touching me All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole Fade out again Fade out This machine will, will not communicate These thoughts and the strains I am under Be a world child form a circle Before we all go under Fade out again Fade out again Cracked eggs dead birds scream as they fight for life I can feel death, can see it's beady eyes All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole Fade out again Fade out again Immerse your soul in love Immerse your soul in love

Jeff Buckley - Last Goodbye This is our last goodbye I hate to feel the love between us die But it's over, just hear this and then I'll go You gave me more to live for, more than I'll ever know This is our last embrace Must I dream and always see your face? Why can't we overcome this wall? Baby, maybe it's just because I didn't know you at all Kiss me, please kiss me Kiss me out of desire babe, and not consolation Oh, you know it makes me so angry Cos I know that in time I'll only make you cry This is our last goodbye Did you say no this can't happen to me? Did you rush to the phone to call? Was there a voice unkind In the back of your mind? Saying maybe I didn't know him at all The bells out in the church tower chime Burning clues into this heart of mine Thinking so hard on her soft eyes And the memories offer signs that it's over It's over

Oasis - Champagne Supernova How many special people change? How many lives are living strange? Where were you while we were getting high? Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannonball Where were you while we were getting high? Someday you will find me Caught beneath a landslide In a champagne supernova in the sky Someday you will find me Caught beneath a landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova in the sky Wake up the dawn and ask her why A dreamer dreams, she never dies Wipe that tear away now from your eyes Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannonball Where were you while we were getting high? Someday you will find me Caught beneath a landslide In a champagne supernova in the sky Someday you will find me Caught beneath a landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova Cos people believe That they're gonna get away for the summer But you and I we live and die The world's still spinning round We don't know why Why, why, why, why

ARGH! double post

Snow Patrol - Chocolate This could be the very minute I'm aware I'm alive All these places feel like home With a name I'd never chosen I can make my first steps As a child of twenty-five This is the straw, final straw in the Roof of my mouth as I lie to you Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it at the time You're the only thing that I love Scares me more every day On my knees I think clearer Goodness knows I saw it coming Or at least I'll claim I did But in truth I'm lost for words What have I done? It's too late for that What have I become? Truth is nothing yet A simple mistake starts the hardest time I promise I'll do anything you ask this time

Radiohead by a mile

:lol: brilliant If anyone ever needed any conclusive evidence of how bad Nickelback really are, then this is surely it.

The Rapture - Echoes The city breathing The people churning The convesating The price is what? The convesating This place is heaven I put on lipstick The price is what? Life makes echoes If you see them Life makes echoes Come together Come together Come together Come together Saint
