things you don't care about

i have very strong music associations, and most of the time a particular song i am listening to privately betrays my mood. i'm attempting to catalog them here and hide them from my friends

  • Fuck you girlsssssssss








  • How do you try and talk someone out of a decision you’ve absolutely convinced yourself they’ve made, without knowing a single thing they’re thinking and just going by their actions?

    Today may be judgement day and if not, I’ll have to get pro-active when I really don’t want to.

  • What do you do when you think someone is avoiding you but you don’t want to ask them and be right?

  • Nothing worse than going from feeling absolutely wanted to feeling like someone can’t wait for you to piss off, but not being sure whether you’re imagining it or not.

    Probably not.

    Is ‘being too nice that it’s annoying’ actually a bad thing

  • Sometimes I wonder if I’m attracted to girls who are like her because of her or if I’ve always been attracted to those kinds of girls and she’s the first one that made me realise it.

  • Day 06 - A song that reminds you of somewhere

    this song here reminds me of the shittest place i worked, right when i was in my worst frame of mind. L.V Martin at the start of 2008. my grandma had died, i had almost died [more on that another time] things with her had stopped and my flatmates were cunts. and this job sucked balls. but that was where i discovered this track, in the middle of [the best mixtape I’ve ever, ever, come across without question] Clifford Liddel’s You’re Perfect mixtape [download: http://missingtoof.com/2008/02/05/clifford-lidell-youre-perfect-mix/ right click on link in that post, save as]

     

    Timbaland - Bounce (Timbaland Remix)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfP2hx0jaUY

    this song is from the flat i mentioned above because at the start we all developed a fascination with Step Up 2, but then things fell apart.

     

    Limp Bizkit - N 2 Gether Now

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdiLvv_DMcA

    i kid you not, this song is the first time i ever heard swearing in a song. some of the students that lived next door to my grandma had this blaring in their car one day. i was 10 or 11. Limp Bizkit became my favourite group.

  • Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone

    fucking easy. i still haven’t seen her but i still think about her, i can’t help it.

    Aphex Twin - Windowlicker

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4gE8XkxLPI

    reminds me of this one girl who i met and we were instant best friends. haven’t seen her in 2 years. so much for that.

    Billy Talent - Fallen Leaves

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPg63uxYwN0

    my best mate in high school and i loved Billy Talent. then typical New Zealand, they came out here 2 years later - songs from their first album were getting air time months after II was released - and all the stupid MCR emos got on the bandwagon. Gina and i used to fucking awesome times blasting them in her car while we drove around egging people and shit.

  • gotta make up for lost time, since living with four girls means i’ll be outvoted on anything within the vicinity of my knowledge [in this case, internet plans] and therefore we have shit all at home, couldn’t keep up over the weekend. whatever, fuck y’all.

    Day 04 - A song that makes you sad

    this song is the king. fuck nothing can compare AFAIAC.

    runners up;

    Modest Mouse - World At Large

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7324GPuPStY

    i slept on MM. i liked Float On but didn’t check them out more than that. in first year i met this girl, Victoria, through my flatmate [they’d gone to school together in Dunedin]. i‘ve written about Victoria before. i can’t remember how exactly but in first year we had both gotten drunk with our separate friends and somehow i ended up with her in her room and we were having this hardout heart to heart about our families, how dumb people were, etc. somehow we got on to MM and she loaned me their entire catalogue. this song reminds me of her and how little guidance or direction i have now that she’s gone.

    Radiohead - Creep

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxpblnsJEWM

    of course this seems like an easy pick for any emo who grew up in the 90s but it’s more than that. at our leaver’s assembly one of the guys in our form sang this and he managed to make it perfect. but what this symbolises now is just how long it’s been since high school and how i haven’t fucking done anything since. and also how goddamn happy i was and how perfect life was back then in my small town.

  • Day 03 - A song that makes you happy

    well shit. there are so many of them. the entirety of Girl Talk, Daft Punk, Justice, Eminem’s catalouges? but here are 3 tracks.

    i dunno what the obsession is with Drop the Pressure, i can’t even remember where i would have first heard it but for whatever reason i loved it straight away. i’ve done some pretty insane things when i’ve been drunk and it’s been on, like on my 20th birthday when a good friend requested it in town.

    Throw Some D’s is just a good song that’s catchy and Guns at Dawn is a Pendulum track that didn’t get much exposure but destroys everything. the entire Hold Your Colour album is full of good memories for me, i don’t think anyone from my high school has anything bad about that album to remember. we absolutely thrashed it in 6th and 7th form.

    Rich Boy - Throw Some D’s

  • Day 02 - Your least favorite song

    least favourite? that’s a flawed description. do you mean the favourite song i like the least? or a song i don’t like at all?

    if it’s the first it’s the above, with these as runners up

     

    RQM - Miss Pacman

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8CaO7FSHR0

     

    MSTRKRFT - Vuvuvu

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3aOKjC70qs

    if it’s the second, then it’s definitely this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74J_R9Bifj8]. i don’t really ‘hate’ songs because what’s the point? i just don’t listen to them. but with that song, i was forced to since all my friends LOVED it. fuck it’s terrible.

  • right, let’s do this shit. i hate these fucking things but at least this relates to this. and i’ll try write about each one.

    Day 01 - Your favorite song

    i think ‘your favourite song’ is a bit of a misnomer. people’s favourite anything can change from day to day and the individual that can narrow it down to just one song would be a pretty boring one, imo. 

    that being said, i’ve previously noted my love for this song so it gets the feature, though there are literally hundreds of others. the playlist at my 21st last year was 700 songs, all of which have been ‘favourites’ at some stage in my life.

    there are many songs which could be included but i think i’ll try and just keep each list at 3. so these are two others worth checking;

    Jamiroquai - Deeper Underground

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJWzOfi0dvg

    Korn - Alone I Break

    Day 07 - A song that reminds you of a certain event
    Day 08 - A song that you know all the words to
    Day 09 - A song that you can dance to
    Day 10 - A song that makes you fall asleep
    Day 11 - A song from your favorite band
    Day 12 - A song from a band you hate
    Day 13 - A song that is a guilty pleasure
    Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to love
    Day 15 - A song that describes you
