Pick ONE band and answer the questions using only that band's lyrics. Note the name of the song where the lyrics came from below the lyrics.
1. Are you male or female?
2. Describe yourself:
3. How do your friends feel about you?
4. Who do you want to be?
5. Describe your significant other:
6. What would you rather be doing?
7. Describe where you live:
8. Describe how you love:
9. Share a few words of wisdom:
------------------------------
No wonder what was the band that come to my mind and I had all the answers?...
And here they are:
1. Are you male or female?
"I get frightened,
just like you,
I get frightened too"
2. Describe yourself:
"I've got nothing to say I haven't said before,
I bled all I can, I won't bleed no more."
3. How do your friends feel about you?
"Some say you're growing cold and taking over"
4. Who do you want to be?
"I had a face on the mirror
I had a hand on the gun
I had a place in the sun and a
Ticket to Syria
I had everything within my reach
I had money and stuff
Each and every call
Too much but never enough
Tear it up and watch it fall"
5. Describe your significant other:
"And a devil in a black dress watches over"
6. What would you rather be doing?
"Walk away"
7. Describe where you live:
"So still. So dark all over Europe"
8. Describe how you love:
"Love is a very splintered thing
Don't be afraid now
Just walk on in"
9. Share a few words of wisdom:
"Words are just dust in deserts of sound"
---------------
OK. These were the answers to the "general public".
Here between us, "Describe where you live:" would be "a rock and a hardplace". And a lot more cryptic quotes that I know you would understand but I don't have the time to do this again.
The challenge is: CAN YOU DO IT? In 20 minutes? Less?...
