Out of 300+ "W" songs, I got sick of going through them at the half-way mark, so I narrowed it down to five of the ones I found before that point to show you.
BUT, as usual I had to include links to a few more. (I really do suck at picking favorites it seems.)
The Top Five
Welcome to the Jungle (original video) - Guns N' Roses (80s rock)

Meme: Songs Beginning With...
Jun. 25th, 2010 12:39 am1. Reply to this post and ask to play, and I will assign you a letter.
2. List (and upload, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.
tygermama gave me "S". I decided to copy her smart system and use YouTube vids so you can hear the songs, potentially see the bands, or just watch some wicked cool vids I like.Out of 500+ "S" songs on my computer, I narrowed it down to five vids to embed here, BUT I had to include links to a whole bunch more, lol. I suck at picking favorites apparently.

# 1 Song Meme
What was the #1 song the day you were born? Google the date and #1 song and then post your #1 song on your LJ - preferably with a Youtube vid if you can find one!
According to Billboard's #1 Song on This Date in History it was "Rapture" by Blondie. Here's the vid. Sorry, but the embed was disabled.

7 Things Meme
- list 7 habits/quirks/facts
1. I have a large love for calendars. Every year I have at least three, I would get more when I had more rooms to fill. This year, my single room has three. I keep my old ones for the pretty pictures too.
2. I love art. I draw with pencils, pastels, charcoal, and with a tablet on the computer. I paint with acrylic, gouache, watercolor, and with a tablet on the computer. I create collages with pictures from magazines (made a few for Christmas presents, my bro's was from a Victoria Secret catalog, heh). I take photos and also do photo-manipulations. I recently got into cross stitching, working on a 10" x 14" one right now. I have also done ceramics, oil painting, beading, and many, many other crafts.
3. I absolutely love to own complete sets of things. I am always looking for missing parts of my collections. Like, book series - Star Trek Voyager, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Star Wars, etc.; authors - Mercedes Lackey (Valdemar Series), Laurell K. Hamilton, Jim Butcher, etc.; comics - ElfQuest, WildCats, Gen13, etc.; manga - Naruto, Saiyuki, Bleach, etc.; TV Shows - Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel the Series, Golden Girls, etc.; movies - Harry Potter, Star Wars, Chronicles of Riddick, etc.; anime - Yu Yu Hakusho, GetBackers, Knight Hunters, etc., and way too many more to name (including action figures, and cards).
4. I have Celiac Disease, which means I can't have gluten. So, my diet had to go through a change; no more flour on/in anything, and no more rye or barley based things either. I can have almost no pre-packaged foods, most now needs to be actually cooked from scratch (huge bummer for non-cook me). I eat tapioca flour bread (pretty good but kinda small), and rice flour noodles (totally can't tell a difference anymore), and miss pizza like crazy!! At least I have a legit excuse for saying no to yucky beer now, heh.
5. I will quite often take food presents over money, lol. I'm getting enchiladas for Valentine's Day instead of $10 from my grandma. I love my Grandma :)
6. I am obsessed with fanfic. Really I am, but I go through cycles, so my fandom interests change over time, then usually cycle back. I am currently coming back into the Harry Potter love stage (been out of that for months instead reading random anime fics and playing computer games). I adore Aduro's fic at fanfiction.net, I recommend them to all!! They are great, and focus on Draco - my fave (he's yummy).
7. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, and my stories never seem to be finished enough to post for my tastes, lol, so I was shocked when the Christmas Tale actually got put up. I have several other fics at least partially written (even original ones) yet none are ready for the world yet, heh.

Sad News and a Meme to cheer me up
Oct. 8th, 2009 06:15 pmOk, I had some real bad news today. It seems my grandma, the one I kinda live with, has breast cancer. ( poor gran )
In an attempt to cheer me up and get my mind on other things, ( music meme )
Ok, now that is done and I'm feeling all accomplished, I think I shall go play me some PS2, hmm...guitar hero 3 or heroes of might and magic? Then, after that, I'll probably settle in to read some more Spike centric buffyverse fanfic by BuffyWatcher/JinxWatcher/Jinxi/AJ, who is one of the most awesomest Spike writer I have ever had the pleasure of happening upon. I'm working my through her stories (again for the millionth time) so I can leave feedback for each one at her Spanglish fanfic feedback website, I'm hoping maybe that will encourage a new story or two, lol. (why yes, yes I AM shameless)

I must say that I am typical and my fave is "Thriller" out of all his songs. But I do have love for: Bad, Beat It, Billie Jean, Dirty Diana, You Are Not Alone and Smooth Criminal. AND from the way old days: Ain't No Sunshine and Rockin' Robin.

Arg... I was stuck in iHell
Apr. 16th, 2009 04:54 pmI love visiting my parents (I don't have to cook for one), but I hate their internet.
My Dad just got an iShuffle (from work for something, I think) and so I told him when I came over this week I'd set it up for him. I had no idea what I was in for. It was a simple install and the program is easy, just I had to download iTunes...you know from the internet...using their turtle slow aol dial-up.
I started the download at about 10:30 am. I left at 12:40 to go to my hair appointment at 1pm. I was at the hair dresser until 4ish (there was a slight wait and I have LONG ass hair, so it takes a while to highlight, I totally love it btw). I went by the mall and bought 2 manga I wanted after - 15 minutes tops, then dropped by my mom's work on the way back to their house to hit the ATM and say "hey".
I was back at their house by 4:45 and it was still downloading!!! All I have to say is I am darn grateful that at least the service never got interrupted and I didn't get booted off, but the damn thing took until around 6ish to be finished downloading. Then it took another hour or so to convert the mp3 files so they could be used on the dumb i-thing...too damn much trouble if you ask me.
But I got it working. And Dad took it with him to work today, so I'll give him a call tonight and see how it went. And explain to him how to add songs from his CDs to it.

I'm 77% in love with music
Mar. 16th, 2009 10:45 pmGanked from moogsthewriter & winks7985 cause they have the bomb taste in meme's. I'm pretty sure I have heard of more bands than I checked here, but my brain was already half asleep and I couldn't think, so oh well, heh. ( bands )

5 Song Meme
Mar. 16th, 2009 07:58 pmComment to this post if you want to play, and I'll give you a letter. Then you should post five songs to your own LJ starting with that letter.
I was going to post this last night after I got back from dinner, but I went to see a movie instead! I saw The Watchmen, anyone else out there seen this yet? What did you think of it? Was it like the comics (which I have not read)? I liked it, it was dark and gritty and good, but I had a damn hard time finding a character I could really get into liking! They are all so fucked up in some way, lol.
Ok, so I got hit up by two people so far for this meme, the letter D fromwinks7985 and the letter L from siluria so I decided to combine them and do both letters here for your viewing pleasure. ( click here for The Awesomest Musical Choices Ever )
And you do NOT want to know how long this took me to choose just 5, or how many times I changed my friggin' mind. It was like torture I swear! heh.
