IPOD SHUFFLE CHALLENGE 2010

Posted at 9:22 pm under Random

Jem did one a long time ago… Felt like doing one just now…

1. Stay Close, Don’t Go-Secondhand Serenade

<3 the chorus… Dunno why. Good singing.

4/5

2. The Saltwater Room-Owl City

Not my favorite Owl City song, but it’s okay. Better than some of the other songs at least.

3/5

3. Celtic Ritual-Amis MS Honor Band 2010

Don’t ask why it’s on my iPod, my brother was in AMIS this year… Good beginning. Many different harmonies. The percussion is awesome. Love how each section gets the spotlight at one point in the song.

4/5

4. I Want It That Way-Backstreet Boys

It’s good, my brother actually knows the song (surprising), and it’s catchy. To me at least. The beginning is awesome.

3.5/5

5. Fire Dance-Amis MS Honor Band 2010

Another one of these, eh? Reminds me of The Sound and the Fury and Flight of the Condor. Yeah, that kind of song with all the trills and double fortes, totally awesome percussion.

4/5

6. Viva La Vida-Coldplay

Coldplay’s got the really clear, easy-to-understand-lyrics songs. And this is one of them.

3.5/5

7. Fanfare For The New Era-Amis MS Honor Band 2010

Awww… Not another one… But hey, it’s good. Awesome cymbal stuff in the background, the horns really coming out. Starts out moderately fast, slows down, then speeds up.

3.9/5

8. Beautiful Day-U2

Good song, catchy. Ish. Lyrics are okay…

3.5/5

9. Unmistakable-Backstreet Boys

Beginning is awesome, lyrics are good. And background music is awesome.

3.5/5

10. On the Wing-Owl City

Slow-ish beginning, love the lyrics. And it’s just awesome.

4.5/5

11. Learning to Fall-Boys Like Girls

Love the chorus. Not too fast, like Love Drunk, and not as slow as Two is Better Than One. Awesome.

4.5/5

12. Burnout-Green Day

Fast and catchy. Don’t listen to it often, but it’s good.

3/5

13. When the Stars Go Blue-Tim McGraw

Love the chorus, love the lyrics. Awesome

4.5/5

14. Leave Out All the Rest-Linkin Park

Soft at the beginning, and gets louder. Good lyrics.

3.5/5

15. Strawberry Avalanche-Owl City

Good song, and it’s like the usual Owl City songs. Sort of…

3.9/5

16. The Technicolor Phase-Owl City

One of my favorites… Love the chorus.

4.5/5

17. Stop and Stare-One Republic

The first One Republic song I ever listened to… Awesome. Lyrics are good.

4/5

18. How to Save a Life-The Fray

Lol. Step one. Pretty good lyrics, sort of slow. And I’ve lost a friend before…

3.5/5

19. Looking at the Stars-Amis MS Honor Band 2010

This one’s really good. Soft, hopeful, and calming. I think it’s my favorite out of all the Amis songs they played this year.

4.5/5

20. All At Once-The Fray

Not my favorite song by them, but it’s pretty good.

3.3/5

21. Love Drunk-Boys Like Girls

Fast, loud, and something my brother absolutely hates. Which makes it even better. XD

3.3/5

22. Shake It-Metro Station

Lol, TJ was singing, “Shake shake, a shake it!” over and over again during homebase yesterday while shaking one of the shaker pencils. Lol. Chorus is good I guess…

3/5

23. Collide-Howie Day

Love this song. It’s slow and the chorus is totally awesome.

4.7/5

24. I Still-Backstreet Boys

Jemma first recommended this song to me, and it’s pretty awesome. Love the lyrics.

4/5

25. Distant Thunder of the Sacred…-Amis MS Honor Band 2010

The song title’s way too long, and I can’t be bothered to find out what it is. A slow song, started off by the clarinets. Like a conversation between the clarinets and the trumpets during the beginning. Totally awesome percussion part.

4/5

26. New Divide-Linkin Park

Not as good at In the End, but it’s okay. Fast and loud.

3/5

27. Gotta Be Somebody-Nickelback

Tell me this song sucks, and I will kick you. And Hao Chun, don’t really say something like that in a comment.

4.5/5

28. Absolutely [Story of a Girl]-Nine Days

Chorus is good. Lyrics are good. It’s good.

3.5/5

29. Apologize-One Republic

Love it. It’s awesome. Better than Stop and Stare. I think…

4.8/5

30. Meteor Shower-Owl City

Short, lots of piano stuff, not a lot of singing, but it’s good.

3.9/5

31. Boston-Augustana

I think Cindy’s obsessed with this song right now… Jemma also loves it… But Madeleine doesn’t get why someone wants to leave California. Lol. It’s good, my brother hates it, so it’s awesome. XD

4/5

32. All Fall Down-One Republic

Violin or something in the  beginning, I like it, good lyrics.

Soft, and slow. But it’s good. I can’t remember how many times I’ve fallen asleep listening to this song.

4.5/5

34. Your Guardian Angel-The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

It’s good, soft and slow. And the lyrics are good.

4.5/5

Love this song. Awesome. For once, the chorus isn’t my favorite part. :mrgreen:

4/5

37. You Belong With Me-Taylor Swift

Lol… So many memories with this one. Singing it during breather with Montana, Elliott, Jemma and a whole bunch of other people… Singing it during the dance with a Montana, Elliott, Jemma, Guian, and a few other people. Good lyrics I suppose…

3.9/5

38. Right Round-Flo Rida

Lol, got a couple of memories with this one too. Paul singing it during math class (PAUL YOUR’E ON THIN ICE NOW TOO!) was… just lol. Don’t really listen to it a lot… 3/5

3.5/5

Often used as a song-fic for Percy and Annabeth. Lol. Okay, good lyrics.

3.3/5
