Title: Playlist Poetry
Post by: yuichen on Feb 02, 2015, 12:08PM

I thought this topic was already on UYS but I guess not. Maybe I'm thinking of Sims Supernova.

Anyway, the idea is to shuffle your playlist and take the first line of ten songs. It can make for some pretty interesting poetry, and it's also kind of fun to try and figure out the song the lines are from (but you don't have to if you don't want to).

I wanted love, I needed love
I sat by the ocean
For a moment the world turns its back
Living your life like a bull in the trade
Love me
I dig my toes into the sand
She tripped on a hole that I dug in the soil
Dear Haley, can you save me from the borrowed cloud I'm on?
You have sailed through the eye of my needle
Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true

Well I thought I would try it out. What the heck, right?

Why did love put a gun in my hand?
Nothing is a color
My veins are blue and connected
I was walkin' down the street
The rain brought us together
Keep your love around me
Why, why
You have forsaken
There is no light, there is no charm
Heavy is the head that wears the crown

That is actually pretty good. Also, yay for Zac Brown (and Chris Cornell).

There is a lovely playlist on Spotify that I'm hooked on. Thus this particular "poem."

I've been meaning to make an account but I always forget. Thus my trusty old Ipod. I'm glad I looked at this post cause I remembered I need to charge my little bluetooth shower stereo thingy >.>

Bat your eyes girl, be otherworldly
Policy woman got a hold of my baby
It's the glare from the reflection
Living your life like you're bull in the trade
Man watchin' video
Honey, you're so fine
Again the burden of losing rests upon my shoulders
I'm floating down a river
Wanna see my past in flames
Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could

Gah all the Incubus. Love.

You know there's a full app on your PS4 for Spotify? It's pretty nifty and their playlists are typically solid.

Yeah I think you told me before. Just haven't gotten around to doing it. Attention span and all that >.>
