Today's song: Bring me to Life by Evanescence
I had considered selecting a different lyric for this one. "Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold" almost got the nod. But i decided i didn't want a bunch of comments about the tragically goth and instead decided for a little misdirection of the Facebook crowd. Besides, Erin gives me enough grief about having no soul, i don't need to encourage her.
The advantage of selecting the other lyric would be that i'd have an excuse to repeat my weather related tweet from yesterday. But then i remembered that this is my blog and i can do what i want. So without further adieu i shamelessly post old content, "Come February, 26°will feel positively balmy. But today is December 1 and 26° is cold."
There is a parallel here because i cannot think of this song without think of the phrase, "i can do what a want." More specifically, "I can do whatever the hell I want!" Or even more specifically,"People told me I can't dress like a fairy. I say, 'I'm in a rock band and I can do whatever the hell I want.'"
Amy Lee is so quotable. In fact i think i'll post another one in the spirit of doing whatever the hell one wants, "That was real. I climbed up that stuff. And I fell. But there's this shot where's this really really big fall and a girl with an unattractive ass. That's not my ass. I've got a way better ass then that girl." (referring to double used in "Bring Me Back To Life" video).
I adore Ms. Lee. But i'd adore her more if she'd just come clean and admit Evanescence is a God band. There's nothing wrong with being a God band. Well, unless you have a bet about who can get the first gold record. Then going Myrrh just won't cut it
Later

Post Script
I gave my first request and i am working on it, but i the spirit of honoring such a fine memory i want to take a little time to do it justice. I'll even make sure to tie together with the December 1 post.
Comment pending.
