Teenage Failboat, Random Stuff
For some reason I ended up seeking out songs I used to listen to as a kid on youTube. Great hilarity followed. Jesus, I had no taste as a kid.
The three highlights. Because, you know. Hilarity.
Blue - Eiffel 65
Okay, so I'm guessing most people know this one. It was released in '99, which would have made me thirteen years old. I wasn't the electronic music type at all, but this song's just catchy. Now, it mostly makes me laugh because it's so the Doctor. Everything he sees is blue, he lives in a blue house, even his suit is blue. His damn Vespa is blue. 'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen.
Join Me In Death - Him
Him's first hit. Also released in '99 - it must have been the year of bad song releases. You need to watch this and revel in the unadulterated emo that they so innocently displayed back then. It's hilarious. Also, I love how the lyrics don't fit the metric at all. 'Our lives have just bee-gun.' Oh yes.
If you make it to the end, pay attention to the little *gasp* he does. He's all, 'Baby, join me in deeeaaaath' - *gasp*. It's hilarious.
EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE OTHER ONES, WATCH THIS NEXT ONE. I PROMISE YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.
Fell In Love With An Alien - The Kelly Family
In my defense, I must point out that this song was released in 1996, and I was therefore an innocent 10-year-old girl who just didn't know any better. And even back then, I thought it was kind of a silly song - but I had a friend who had wallpapered her room in Kelly Family posters, and was in love with Paddy, so their music kinda seeped into my play list. Their songs are damn catchy, if nothing else. I still get this one in my head from time to time.
It's a gem. The alien, and the kid who falls in love with her, and the terrible countryside setting and the fact that he ends up spawning a huge family with her. (He's such a Sue. ;) )
So what are your most embarrassing secrets when it comes to what you listened to as a (pre-)teenager?
Summary of other more or less interesting things:
- If my icon confuses you, you are missing out. Their love is epic.
- I want this. Yes. Please.Master. This pastede-on hat shouldn't look so sexy.
- I watched The Devil's Whore, and apart from the Devil, who was just badly done, it's quite awesome. I burst out laughing every time someone called Simm Sexby, though. Why yes, I am five. Also, Sexby is so the Master. Such a hard-on for war, I was waiting for him to go tapping his fingers: da-da-da-dun. The main character is quite awesome as well, I like her a lot. Will watch again. (Oh, and and, most important: Guh.)
AND LOOK. SIMMY SIMM HAS A TAG NOW. I hope he knows what a privilege that is. So far, only the David has had an individual tag on this journal.
That's it, really. Will go watch Merlin now.

You did? Omg! When? I must've been distracted, or maybe tired and sleepy. Anyway, yay! How'd you like it?
