The Hippie Chick

To kill a few minutes. First ten songs to come up on iTunes on shuffle:


01. depeche mode // world in my eyes
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is

02. simon and garfunkel // the only living boy in new york
The only living boy in New York.
Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know where.


03. r.e.m. // stand
If you are confused, check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around

04. fiona apple //shadowboxer
So I'll be sure to
Stay wary of you, love
To save the pain of
Once my flame and
Twice my burn

05. led zeppelin // dazed and confused
Lots of people talkin', few of them know
Soul of a woman was created below.

06. david bowie // cracked actor
Crack, baby, crack,
show me you're real
Smack, baby, smack,
is that all that you feel

07. america // a horse with no name
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

08. badfinger // day after day
This song was produced by George Harrison and Todd Rundgren

I remember finding out about you
Every day, my mind is all around you
Looking out from my lonely room, day after day

09. blind melon // no rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane

10. nirvana // dumb
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy

Put your music on shuffle, then answer with the first line of the songs.

Just a song before I go, to whom it may concern: traveling twice the speed of sound it's easy to get burned.

On one of my really good days, I look like this:
Everything, everything, everything, everything in its right place

If I could remind people of just one thing, I would remind them:
The way you wear your hat, the way you sip your tea - the memory of all that, no, they can't take that away from me.
Frank Sinatra - They Can't Take That Away From Me

After a night of decadence, when I get home, I say to myself:

Watch the sun as it crawls across a final time, and it feels like, like it was a friend.
NIN - In This Twilight
