  • All you guys have done such amazing stuff! I'm totally nervous. I have no idea how the whole subjective thing is going to work but I know I wouldn't want to be Andy tomorrow! Good luck everyone!

  • I hate to be totally random since lately we've been mostly talking about the contest, but does anyone have all the lyrics to Fade to Black written out? I would greatly appreciate it if someone could post 'em! Danke! smile.gif

    Lifted directly from Cantarell:

    I remember your heart when we were apart as a distant bright shining light
    I have to confess I was a mess picking up pieces I couldn't put right
    There were some nights out in the city it was so dark I couldn't see my own hands
    There were some nights you'll never hear about they slip away as time expands
    But you called me back from the fade to black
    I've never heard a better sound
    You said come back, oh, yeah you can come back and stop all your messing around
    I remember your face, your uncommon grace when I gave you reasons to doubt me
    The even tone and you let it be known that you would leave with or without me
    I pinned a picture of you to my wall to recall the loss that came with my choice
    But I stuck to the script even on the empty
    In the silence I heard your voice
    Calling me back from the fade to black
    I've never heard a better sound
    You said come back, why, why don't you come back and stop all your messing around


    Enjoy!

    And you all will lurve the lyrics for Still Awake and Blew Myself. I know I do!

    ETA: I made one more video. It's kinda crappy, but well, I like to sing in the car. Click it or ticket.
  • Oh, if we're posting lyrics, I'm in.

    I Blew Myself Up Over You

    It wasn't fair the way you looked
    Tossed your hair and sunk your hook
    I had to stare, it was uncomfortable
    You stole away, but I'm the crook
    I climbed to the roof, pulled out the fuse
    I blew myself up over you

    I'll never talk to you
    But it doesn't matter because I have eyes
    They've seen enough to know
    You'll never feel a thing
    Neither will I
    I was alone with the moon, despair was renewed
    I blew myself up over you

    Red and white like fireworks
    Funny how it doesn't hurt

    Now I lie in a pool because your love is so cruel
    I blew myself up over you.


    (That is my current fave song, fyi)

    And while we're at it...

    I Don't Wanna Know About My City (awesome lyrics by Joe Willie of The Unsacred Hearts)

    Late night, I tie my boots tight
    Shut out the last light and open the door.
    Kids on the block kick the midnight
    The king beats his retreat
    Down the alleys, to the palace
    Safe from the street
    I don't wanna know about my city
    I don't wanna know about my city at all
    I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen

    Silver chains, the full moon wanes
    All that remains a sliver of white
    Shining light on the river
    A shiver runs down my spine
    Across the bridges, through the tunnels
    Where once you were mine
    I don't wanna know about my city
    I don't wanna know about my city at all
    I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen

    Time stands still, let me stay here till I've had my fill
    Time don't quit, you take only what time permits
    You can taste it, you can touch it, then it is gone

    I don't wanna know about my city
    (the bricks and the noise were so pretty)
    I don't wanna think about my city
    (the old song made a beautiful roar)
    I don't wanna hear about the city no more
    I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen
  • So, is the contest suppose to be over at the beginning of Thursday, or at the end??
  • Yeah, I was actually wondering the same thing. Tecccccchnically, Thursday 12:00 AM PDT means the beginning of Thursday, but people can take it the other way. Perhaps we should ask Andy? I guess it might not make that much difference at this point.
  • I think the contest ended 13 minutes ago.
  • Yep, I'm pretty sure the contest is over.

    Now lets see how long it takes to announce the winners...

  • i'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt and say "soon"

    ish.
  • I'll second "soon".

    Besides, he probably has a ton of "super-creative uses of the URL" he has to go through.

    Good luck everyone!!!
  • Andy just left a message at his page. smile.gif








    I almost had a heart attack for a few seconds there.
  • Current favorite lyric off Cantarell from Still Awake:

    I'll call you when I know you're not there just to hold your voice in my hand
  • Oh Becky, I wish I could explain to you the things that I'm going through, but I don't think that you'd understand.

    So, umm, yeah. Presumably, he's going to include my vid too. That's *really* exciting.
  • it makes sense that all along you were right I was wrong / that's not how this all began


    That's pretty fucking awesome he's including your vid!!

    Well he's putting up ALL of the cool shit we did, isn't he? I don't know that mine would be special.

    Oh... Yeah, I read that part, but didn't think he was gonna put up everything. I wonder what others made that we haven't seen.

    And to be a complete dork, I included my pic with the Liberty Bell in my SDR contest Flickr set.

    I'm pretty sure my stuff is "short school bus special".
  • Becky, you're awesome, and the B is TOTALLY for Becky.

    I'm just guessing that he'll put up my vid. It would make my MONTH if he liked my cover.
