The iPod Memory Game

this is a fun thread

I Miss You - Blink-182
It's the second song I ever learned by heart (besides that spice girls song).
Its the first song both my mom and I agreed on loving. Its the first song I heard while finally having courage to allow the radio play while I drive. It means a lot. That love of your life constantly hurting you with the mere memory.

Banquet-Bloc Party
The first time I heard this was probably when I was 6. I never really listened. It was backround music. Then, at like 4 in the morning, it just happened to be on Jumpstart. Now I love Bloc Party

There She Goes-The La's
Summer in Portland.

Blood - MCR
When I started bleeding due to the shattered glass of the grandfather clock and no one helped me.

Sleep - MCR
Last January. Enough Said. :file:

Chariot - Gavin DeGraw
Walking home one day and almost getting kidnapped by a creep.

Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani

My last day at Junior school - we were all singing this to piss the teachers off along with Amerilo and Where Is The Love

Little Devotional - Taking Back Sunday

New Year. I spent it with some friends but they all fell asleep so I got left with one of the guy's older brothers and fell in love with him - shame he's in his twenties and totally not intrested in a 15 year old girl :(

The Ballad Of Sal Villanueva - Taking Back Sunday

An ex boyfriend who I honstly should have never trusted. He faked liking me and faked want to be with me - he was with other girls behind my back and wanted to have sex with me and nearly did - so glad I caught him with another girl...

I'm lost without you- Blink 182
Sitting on the floor in my old room when I used to live with my mum, sketching on lined paper whilst reading the lyrics to all the songs on the 'blink 182' album. I remember really being shocked at how amazing Blink 182 are :file:

Please Please - Mcfly
being thirteen and loving it! I remember when my best friend got her new Ipod nano when they first came out and I would always beg her for it so I could listen to this song on repeat when I was out :tehe:

Conversations with my 13 year old self - Pink
being on holiday in Morocco and listening to Pink's 'I'm not Dead' album over and over in my little beach house thing. I remember really connecting with this song.

Ruin It- Alkaline Trio
The day I bought that album last year, out with Tom on the bus to Craigavon when we used to go there all the time when a new album came out.

Razor's Edge- William Control
About November/ Decemberish time when I couldn't stop listening to this album. I used to sit up in my room all night listening to this song and trying to do homework, and it was really cold and I had all the lights off for some reason. It wasn't a very happy time of my life, but this song...

London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines- Panic at the Disco
:tehe: It's really stupid, but actually the day I bought this album and I brought it home and while I was listened to this song, I accidentally banged my elbow against the chest of drawers so hard the CD skipped and I somehow damaged the muscles in my arm :tehe: I had to wear a support on my elbow for a week or so. So this song reminds me of swearing and being in pain.

Frankenstien - Neurosonic
Sitting at my computer and really listening to Neurosonic for like, the first time. I felt like I could relate to them and their sound was so original to me and awesome. It was so cool, I had actually discovered a band for myself instead of hearing about it from someone else. It was the first time that actually happened and I was so stoked. Also, one of my favorite lines ever: I don't want to walk on water, but it doesn't mean I like to sink.

A Decade Under the Influence - Taking Back Sunday
Oh jeez...this song, I kind of love this song. It reminds me of my first really awesome summer and about wanting to go to Warped Tour and Projekt Revolution and Family Values all in 2007. I actually only went to Projekt Rev, but I just remember sitting in my lawn and listening to my iPod for hours in the sweltering heat, letting the ants crawl over my arms and sweating my skin off but it was awesome.

Are We the Waiting - Green Day
This song mainly reminds me of riding in the car with my parents. We would always listen to the whole of American Idiot if we were driving for a long time on the interstate, but this song always struck me as like a slow, steady, easy driving song, I guess. I remember it being like eleven at night and this song came on and I was looking at all the streetlamps and I was so calm. That's what I remember the most. Calmness and a car.

Hallelujah - Kate Voegele.
Er, Christmas time when X Factor covered this. Sat on the floor after Mum and me had been play fighting and she was crying because that Alexandra Burke was singing it really powerfully. I, on the other hand, was snorting because I was one of the people who felt this song could only be perfected by Rufus Wainwright and Jeff Buckeley.

Teddy Picker - Arctic Monkeys.
Hearing my love hum it constantly in ICT, and afterwards I walk out and wait for him. He plugs in his earphones and without saying anything, gives me one. That's when this song is playing and I suddenly recognize it. Then we both walk down the stairs together listening to it.


Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued - Fall Out Boy.
The album I had on loop in October 2006, while going out with Ryan. I had my purple booklet open and I was holding the lyric, copying them out and doodling that I heart Ryan everywhere. I was in my old terracotta room with my desk lamp on, the room was really dark.

Cute Without The 'E' (Cut From the Team)- Taking Back Sunday
A lot of things :weird Being like 11 or 12 and listening to this song online and going :cheese: Basically just discovering one of my favourite bands, like, ever.

Champagne for My Real Friends, Real Pain for My Sham Friends- Fall Out Boy
2007, when I started getting back into Fall Out Boy. And Lisa.

Close to Me- The Cure
:XD Jamie knew I liked the Cure, so he used to sing this to me because he didn't know what the song was called and I had to try to figure it out. I never knew what he was on about :tehe:

Screaming infidelities - dashboard confessional .
when i hugged my best friend , and they didnt hug me back
Down - Blink182
summer , 07. me , my sister and 2 cans of cola
Dead on Arrival - FOB
when it snowed earlier in the year , iwas listening to this the one and onlt time i slipped in the damned stuff

Just Like Heaven - Taking Back Sunday [originally by the Cure]

I sent this to my best male frieend Buddy and we were really into it even though he hates TBS. I was realizing I no longer loved MCR and that I was growing up - Taking Back Sunday seem so much mroe grown up to me then MCR are.

Flying Without Wings - Westlife

This reminds me of my best female friend Callie. Her father died of cancer last January, a couple of months after we met. The day of his death, we were sat up in her bedroom listening to Westlife and picking at chocolate donnuts her brother had brought us. The rest of that week seemed like such a blur to me - we went into school on the Monday and just couldn't process anything - our world crummbled but not when we listen to this song or any other Westlife song we grin because Steve was an amazing man and he loved the both of us and her mother so much. :)

This Photograph Is Proof (I Know You Know) - Taking Back Sunday

The first time I heard this song was when watching the music video for it on Youtube. I broke down in tears - it's so beautiful and it just fits my life so well. - I told a teacher (who seems to understand me pretty well and loves TBS as much as me) and he just smiled and knew where I was coming from with it. The music video is so beautifully simple - if you're reading this go watch the msuic video - you'll never be the same again.

house of wolves - my chemical romance
this song absolutely reminds me of being twelve, and singing it to duncan to piss him off and him telling me i was an angel :file:

get busy living or get busy dying - fall out boy
me and duncan listening to this on the bus and shouting the bit at the end alternatively and having this as a screenname on msn :tehe:

i got you (i feel good) - james brown
when james brown was on tv about eight years ago, singing. i was blown over because he was amazing, yeah? and listening to this song in music

FM; Nathan Haines ft. 2-D
One of my internet friends sent me this song, I'm pretty sure. She was my source of rare (to me) songs with Damon. A vocals, and I remember listening to this on an evening in the prime of my Gorillaz obsession.

Zero; Yeah Yeah Yeahs
This reminds me of dancing around my kitchen whilst making my breakfast, which happened like two weeks ago. Their music is good to do housework to.

Awfully Deep; Roots Manuva
This reminds me of... when I used to feel angst alot, when I was in the last couple of years in school. It was one of those songs that I immediately perked up to when it came on random. Man, I love Roots.

My way home is through you - My chemical romance
This reminds me of work experience when I was 14, and during my break me and my friend would go to the park and scream out all the lyrics of the songs from The Black Parade whilst swinging on the swings and eating ice cream.

Golden - Fall out boy
Being home alone and messing around with my hair and taking pictures with my old web cam.

Innocence- Avril Lavigne
Driving down long motor ways in Morocco my cousin by my side and looking out at the beach and the sunset and reevaluating my life and trying to work myself out.

Dance Inside - The All-American Rejects
I don't know why, but this just reminds me of Belfast at night. I've had so many good memories running around that troubled city in the middle of the night, and when it's all dark and peaceful, I don't know ... this song just reminds me of it.

Someone That You're With - Nickelback
Driving, pure and simple. Such a driving song =D Windows down even though it was the middle of winter, country lane in the middle of the night, singing this ... epic.

A Pair Of Brown Eyes - The Pogues
Me and my Da when we went to see them in Dublin =D This is one of my Da's favourite Pogues song and I'm the third generation to like them. It's a nice grandfather-father-daughter song for us all to sing!

Duality - Slipknot
-Last year during the summer, my bestie Lindsey and I made a hilarious video to this song. The part where Corey says I push my fingers into my eyes she went to poke her eyes and she missed and hit her forehead. It was HILARIOUS.

Pain - Three Days Grace
-In seventh grade my friends Lindsey, Jamie and I were coming back from Spare Time at school and like... they started singing it and I was absolutely clueless, but they had me listen to it. I LOVE IT! Haha.

Cemetary Drive - My Chemical Romance
-I used to have an account on this site called MyPraize, and there were two people I was really good friends with and all three of us were huge MCR fans, so we'd go in the main chat and put all our usernames then would say 'link arms and crash them cemetary gates! We were all obsessed with Cemetary Drive... Haha.

Another Innocent Girl- Alkaline Trio
When I started listening to Alkaline Trio again. I must have been... 13? This song always reminded me of myself and my dreams and goals.

Note To Self- From First to Last
Summer 05. Nuff said.

Jude Law and a Semester Abroad
...I actually first heard this song yesterday :tehe: So it reminds me of yesterday and my current Long Island phase.

I love this thread :tehe:

Mr. Tambourine Man - The Byrds.
When I was singing along to it with my dad last weekend.:tehe:

Set Phasers To Stun - Taking Back Sunday

Lame enough it reminds me of one of my TBS fics. This Glass House Is Burning Down because of the lines

If I talk in my sleep, will you just keep trying? (We paint our sins on the ceiling),
I might give it up, if you just keep trying (Well I keep them glued to my chest),

which discribes a relationship that will form amoung a couple of my characters towards each other...

Down - Blink 182

Simple - my parent's break up.

Cut Up Angels - The Used

Mine and my best friend Nick's friendship. He's nineteen, plays bass in a really big local band and I'm his little brother (who's my age) ex girlfriend. We reply on each other's friendship a lot and I honestly don't know what I'd do without him. I love Nick to bits - my parent's acturly told me they'd approve if I ever wanted to date him O_O

Leave Out All The Rest - Linkin Park
Being obsessed with Twilight for a while. :shifty

I Caught Myself - Paramore
Refer to above.^

Hang 'Em High - MCR

I Never Told You What I Do For A Living ~ My Chemical Romance
Ah. The second song I fell in love with by MCR. I just turned 13 at the time and at my sister's Graduation party (8th grade for her) we played Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge for a while until my mother made us turn it off because of the shocked look of our relatives. :tehe: Good times.
I Write Sins Not Tragedies ~ Panic! At The Disco
The 7th grade dance when me and my friends danced to this. And when Kirsten told us this song was "bad". I get that now.
I'm Not Okay (I Promise) ~ My Chemical Romance
The first time I saw this video. I was 12 at the time and I thought Gee looked scary. I was a freaky kid.
