ahumblepen, because it was too wacky not to try out.

Take your playlist, but it on shuffle, and let the songs answer the questions! Instrumentals and stuff not in English skipped as per usual.

1) What do you think of me?
Switchfoot, "Dare You To Move"
"The tension is here, the tension is here, between who you are and who you could be... between how it is and how it should be..."
[That's sort of... backhandedly flattering, I think. Unrealized potential? Or something.]

2) Will I have a happy life?
Metallica, "Unforgiven II"
"What I feel, what I've known, sick and tired, I stand alone..."
[I don't think that's a yes.]

3) What do my friends really think of me?
Marc Cohn, "Walking In Memphis"
"She said, 'tell me are you a Christian, child,' and I said, 'ma'am, I am tonight!"
[...uh.]

4) Do people secretly lust after me?
Judy Garland, "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"
"Someday soon, we all will be together, if the fates allow..."
[I have no idea how to interpret this one. Hee.]

5) How can I make myself happy?
Bonnie Raitt, "I Can't Help You Now"
"I can't help you now - sorry, baby - no, I can't help you now."
[Survey says: a meme can't tell you how to make yourself happy. Check!]

6) What should I do with my life?
Dave Matthews Band, "Grey Street"
"She feels like kicking out all of the windows and setting fire to this life - she could change everything about her using colors bold and bright."
[I'm not sure what it means, but I kind of like it.]

7) Why must life be so full of pain?
Koda Kumi, "1000 Words"
"I acted so distant then, turned my back as you walked away, but I was listening... You fight your battles far from me; it's not right to me."
[Not enough communication!]

8) How can I maximize my pleasure during sex?
Loren & Mash, "Thanatos - If I Can't Be Yours"
"I've been holding it back so long, but something strange deep inside of me is happening - I feel unlike I've ever felt, and it's making me scared that I may not be what I think I am..."
[...I got nothing.]

9) Will I ever have children?
The Eagles, "Tequila Sunrise"
"Take another shot of courage, wonder why the right words never come... you just get numb. It's another tequila sunrise, and this old world still looks the same..."
[Probably a no.]

10) Will I die happy?
Little Texas, "What Might Have Been"
"Try not to think about what might have been, 'cause that was then, and we have taken different roads."
[...I'm thinking regrets. Yaay.]

11) Can you give me some advice?
Melissa Manchester, "Let Me Be Good To You"
"So dream on, and drink your beer. Get cozy - your baby's here!"
[Snerk.]

12) What do you think happiness is?
Sawyer Brown, "All These Years"
"She said 'you're not the man you used to be,' and he said 'neither is this guy.' She said 'there's some things you refuse to see, but I guess sometimes so do I...'"
[I think that, like Schmendrick said, a lot of the time people don't know what makes them happy.]

13) What's my favourite fetish?
Susan Tedeschi, "It Hurts So Bad"
[You know, I don't think I'm even going to go here.]

14) How will I be remembered?
Air Supply, "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All"
"You can take the darkness from the pit of the night and turn to it a beacon burning endlessly bright..."
[...Cool!]
