Wow, I'm full...

[per_solo]

Went to MacNiven's with a friend for lunch today.

Holy Crap! Will have to go back and try more, but if the first experience is anything, it's well worth going to again.

Had Fish and Chips. Actual Battered Fish! Horribly unhealthy, but YUM!

Ok. Will post more later, have another quiz, but am FINALLY posting my Music Quiz!

Rules are simple. I'll post lyrics from a song, and you have to guess the song title, the artist, and the movie or tv show that I pulled it from! Yes, this may mean that the artist isn't who is well known to have done the song, and for media references, well, in theory that will make it harder, unless ya know me real well, or know my tastes (as varied and eclectic as those can be). :-) And, 1 or 2 bonus questions.

Have fun!

1. Dont have to tell you
I love your precious heart

2. Love needs its martyrs
Needs its sacrifices
They live for your beauty
And pay for their vices

3. Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before - (partially complete) In My Life - -

4. Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm - Alanis Morrisette - Uninvited - City of Angels

5. Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel

6. Still in peaceful dreams I see
The roads leads back to you - Georgia on my Mind - Ray Charles - Quantum Leap

7. Slip me a napkin and now that you start
Is this your name or a doctor's eye chart? - Dyslexic Heart - Paul Westerberg - Singles

8. As I peer through the window
Of lost time
Looking over my yesterdays

9. Something's cooking, I'm at the griddle
I bought Nero his very first fiddle (mostly complete) Sweet's Song - From Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

10. To clinch a lifetimes argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

11. so hand me that remote
can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow

12. But there are times that you feel youre part of the scenery
All the greenery is comin down, boy

13. stones taught me to fly
love, it taught me to lie
life, it taught me to die

14. Feeling all alone without a friend you know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I, didn't I see you crying - (mostly complete) I Want You To want me - - 10 things I hate about you.

15. Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes

16. When they've all had their quarrels and parted
We'll be the same as we started

17. Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn
Dust demon screaming, bring an eagle to lead me on

18. I’m just a punky little eyeball
And a funky optic nerve

19. it drives you insane, make you crazy
the.....the faster the funk
if you wanna feed my rocket
till mornin comes

20. Dear knife drawer
Now won't you help me to face life more
Oh, trashcan
Don't you put the dirt on me


Ok. That's all for now. Some of these? Are gonna be rougher. And for fun, we'll add two bonus questions, one of which is a lyric, but has nothing to do with the media references above.

Bonus 1. The artist for number 9 is connected to the media for #6. How?
Bonus 2. "Deader than the parents on Party of 5"

Enjoy! :-) (And in my mind, YAY! It's posted, and Done!)

aahhhhhhh!!! Number 9 is "Sweet's Song" from "buffy The Vampire Slayer, Once More With Feeling"!!!!!!! Written by Joss Whedon, but I'm not sur of the actor's name.

[crysthewolf.livejournal.com]

which is now, of coutse, stuck in my head.

[crysthewolf.livejournal.com]

also, 4 is Alanis's Morissette (written and performed) Uninvited, and it was on City of Angels.

[crysthewolf.livejournal.com]

I want to say it *may* also have plyed overthe credits in Dogma, but I'm not certain on that one.

LOVE that movie.

[crysthewolf.livejournal.com]

Oh! dammit, I keep remembering more. number 14 is I Want You to Want Me by Cheap Trick... and I'll guess you got it from "Ten Things I Hate About You". (another GREAT movie)

7 points. :-)

Where and What is MacNiven's? Because anywhere with good fish 'n chips gets my attention.

[per_solo]

MacNiven's is a pub at 339 Mass. Ave. On the opposite side of the street from Bazbeaux. :-)

It is GREAT Fish n chips, and a great selection of Beers. You should really check it out! (and tell em you were referred by a student in Kristin Norris' class ;-P)

Wow I know I'm gonna hate my self later, but I can only come up with two. 3) In my Life, The Beatles (don't remember it in Across the Universe) 6) Georgia on my Mind, Ray Charles. Both answers are big time guesses. These are good :-)

[negative-42.livejournal.com]

3) In my Life, The Beatles Across the Universe (don't remember it in Across the Universe: but?) 6) Georgia on my Mind, Ray Charles. Designing Women.

Should have read before posting

[confusedjew.livejournal.com]

3. in my life-beatles-theme song to providence but it's used in many things.

4.gerogia on my mind-ray charles-m.i.a-quantum leap also the theme song to designing women

5.micheal buble can't remember what the name is or the movie it was in. it's bugging me since it was on the trailer tape at work for so long.

[per_solo]

3. Yup on song, not right on artist or media ref I pulled it from (nope, I don't recall it in AtU). Knew this one would be a toughee, as with a few of the others.

6. Right on Artist and song.

3 pts so far. :-)

[per_solo]

Negative got the title on #3, though neither of you got the artist or ref (knew it was a harder one), and Title and artist on #4. You nailed the ref.

5. Nope, sorry. Though, I'll now have to find that version.

1 point so far.

[cassandramorgan.livejournal.com]

In My Life was covered by Bette Midler for the movie For The Boys. I'm not sure if that is what you were looking for though ;)

[per_solo]

Unfortunately not. I'll give the hint that this one is a TV tie in, in the 80s. :-) (thank ya for trying, keep meaning to comment over on your journal, as I'm still reading).

[ladysoleil.livejournal.com]

Thing 1: serious icon love.

Thing 2:

Song 7- Dyslexic Heart, Paul Westerberg, Singles. (That would also be my favorite movie.)

[per_solo]

One of my fave icons, and it's a natural for music stuff.

And yes, on all 3 for that question. Tis also one of my faves, though I haven't watched it in a while. I did have to print out custom cover art for it, with the original poster. :-P Yes, I'm that type of geek. ;-)

3 pts so far. :-)

[confusedjew.livejournal.com]

the beatles are used so often it's hard to figure out from where.

[per_solo]

*nod* I gave a clue that it was 80s TV (But not Designing Women). It is a hard one, but 80s TV, and it wasn't the beatles who did it. Happens to be one of my fave covers.

[negative-42.livejournal.com]

Argh...Quantum Leap, hangs head in shame. Nice call cj

[per_solo]

*nod* Quantum Leap is where I fell in love with the song. Had always liked it before, but after that, the images played in my mind.

No one else is trying these...I didn't think I made em THAT hard (though, did want to do something a shade different).

I'll have to post the answer sheet next week or so.

[confusedjew.livejournal.com]

i am a leaper ya know...it'd be bad if i missed that one. :)
