All About the Wordplay

[barkinmad]

I'm in the computer lab right now because they're doing the room lottery upstairs and it's taking forever and I'm probably not going to get a room I like. ALSO, this means that I will probably be spending most of my time away from my iTunes at home, so I'm going to ask you, my wonderful flist, a favor.

Will you make tomorrow's playlist for me? I'm going to randomly decide now that the word is "sacrifice", so if you know of any songs that you think really represent this word, or are in the vein of the word, or just kinda have the word in the title, please post! I think it'll be awesome if I get to play a whole show of songs my friends picked.

Totally voluntary, of course.

I find this task very difficult.

[barkinmad.livejournal.com]

Difficult to find a song, or difficult to narrow it down to one? Because if you have more than one, feel free to share.

And yeah, I do this every week.

Maybe I shouldn't have picked sacrifice, since it's such a touchy subject.

[cheshirepuss.livejournal.com]

Difficult just to find one. For me anyway. I'm sure there are other people better with music than me.

[barkinmad.livejournal.com]

I'm sure that's not true!

I would say Oasis's Falling Down - I think the sacrifice theme is especially apparent in the video.

Cool! Thanks!

Hold on! You have a radio show? Cool! When did this happen? I will admit to be woefully behind on Things Going On With Everyone, so feel free do yell at me for most likely not knowing something that is officially Old News.

Yes. I've had one since first semester, although the time has changed. It used to be 5 o'clock on Tuesdays, and is now 6 o'clock on Thursdays, which means that everyone is eating dinner. Oh well, I just enjoy playing music.

It's called "The Word" and has a Jason Mraz intro.

Oh, I see... both in the sense of "I understand what you're saying" and "I can see the actual playlists of sons you have played." Cool! Now, I want to request a song, but I don't know where to begin. I will find one though... as soon as Lost is over.

Also, I can't explain it (yet), but that icon is very appropriate for this post. (I know, I know. It makes no sense. It will one day though... one day.)

You mean you can see the playlists on WBCR? You remembered that that was my station?!

[jimmiefearsylar.livejournal.com]

Nope. I just googled "Beloit radio show" (actually I googled "Beloit readio show", but the little "do you mean...?" thing handled that for me.) and there was a schedule of shows, complete with old playlists. The only thing missing is the actual word.

I feel like you'd probably be able to guess that since 95% of the titles have the word in it.

You have a radio show? That is awesome!

Of course, even with all of my music love and knowledge I cannot think of any song about sacrifice. And I had to reboot my computer, so I don't have any of my music on it so I can't even check. Sorry.

Oooh, I'm jealous of your radio show. :D

What about Elton John's "Sacrifice"? XD
