dream theater - metropolis pt 1: the miracle and the sleeper

because MoP's post made me think of it.

it's an amazing beginning to an incredible story- this is a single song on one CD, images and words.. and then there's an entire album for metropolis pt 2: scenes from a memory
that came out 7 years later

it is an amazingly thought out story and musical journey

i HIGHLY recommend buying met pt 2: SFAM... it is an awesome CD and will draw you in to its plot and the stunning musical works.

I actually don't have pt 1. I only have pt 2 But I agree, it is amazing.

Blind - ME!!!!

Because I wrote it with someone and am just checking to see if the recording came out okay

I keep hearing that guy on YIM say "All the ladies in the house say..." it's hilarious.

Xzibit - The Foundation

Old old Xzibit. I like his words.

You came from a long line of killers and drug dealers
Who forever smoke bud
So it's probably in your blood
Realize you can only run the streets so long
Then the streets run you into the ground then gone
It's kinda ruff trying to teach you what's right from wrong
Same shit different day
It's the same ol' song
If the time ever comes that I meet my match
Take control of my assets
Fuck startin' from scratch
Take care of your mother
Keep yourself on track
Just cause niggas get behind you don't mean they got your back
Beware of the serpent
Cause there's a time in life the mothafucker will strike
And try to make you loose sight
Don't be a fake mothafucker tryin' to keep shit real
Fill cassettes with idle threats with no guts to kill
Son if you ever pull heat
Then use it
If you got a chance to walk away
Then do it
Total domination takes full concentration in all situations
A solid foundation

In this life you can't press stop
Then press rewind
Gotta live to the fullest never follow behind no man
Have your own plan, expand your mind
Ain't no paper thin game to raise wannabe thugs
This is nothing but love
Via sattelite Muggs
Take heed when it's your turn to bring new life
Make sure it's the woman you gonna make your wife
Be prepared for the worst
But expect the best
No matter where life takes you
Come home to the West
Survival takes more than just gats and guns
That's words to live by
From a father to a son
Foundation

Hey...it's the truth.

Nightwish - Ocean Soul

One of the songs I can really relate to. Yet again, I love the lyrics and the music. It seems so 'finished'. Lol I dunno how to explain it properly, so never mind.

Nightwish - Swanheart. (live)

the song i took my username from. it's beautiful, if sad. it always brings tears to my eyes, especially when it gets to this part:

"In my world
Love is for poets
Never the famous balcony scene
Just a dying faith
On the heaven's gate

Crystal pond awaits the lorn
Tonight another morn for the lonely one is born"

Tarja's voice is amazing.

Linkin Park - Krwlng
