What does your livejournal name mean: It means I'm just a bad seed, plain bad from the beginning. And my birthday.
Top 5 lyrics that i love: (or at least a sampling of the many I adore)
1. "When you come, you'll come with light. You'll come radiant. You devour my shadows, count my notches, and open me up, open my sanctum and read me out loud so that I, too, can hear myself. When you leave, you'll ask: Which one of us do you believe is the beloved? Which one is the beloved" (Einsturzende Neubauten, "Fiat Lux", translated)
2. "You held on to me like I was a crucifix" (Leonard Cohen, "So Long Marianne"
3. "A beauty impossible to endure, the blood imparted in little sips. The smell of you still on my hands, as I raise the cup up to my lips." (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, "Brompton Oratory"
4. "And no one speaks English and everything's broken" (Tom Waits, "Tom Traubert's Blues")
5. "I did my best, it wasn't much. I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch. I told the truth, I didn't come to fool you. And even though it all went wrong, I'll stand before the Lord of Song with nothing on my tongue but 'Hallelujah'." (Leonard Cohen, "Hallelujah")
top 7 bands that are my fav (not necessarily in this order):
1. Einsturzende Neubauten
2. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
3. Tom Waits
4. Diamanda Galas
5. The Velvet Underground
6. Leonard Cohen
7. Bjork?
top 5 things that turn you on about your sex of choice:
1. Charisma/charm
2. Intellectualism
3. Nobility of the spirit
4. Joie de vivre
5. Kinkiness
top 5 movies that you watch all the time: (or would if I had them all)
1. "Wings of Desire" (best movie ever made)
2. "American Beauty"
3. "Dancer in the Dark"
4. "Shrek"
5. "The Piano"
top 5 things people should know about you:
1. I like attention. I'm an attention-slut.
2. I can't take a compliment well, but I am very grateful for every one of them nonetheless.
3. I am a writer who wishes she could be a singer.
4. A hug will always make me feel better. If I'm being moody, depressed, or otherwise annoying as hell, it's what I need.
5. I equally enjoy doing my makeup and getting my hands dirty.
top 5 things you say the most:
1. Motherfucker!
2. Peachy keen.
3. Lord knows I try!
4. Ack!
5. Groovy
top 5 things you do not understand about your own sex:
1. The completely random spitefulness they can possess sometimes that men almost never have.
2. Their obsession with sweet, fruity, umbrella drinks
3. How they can wear those shoes with the really pointy toes
4. Feminazis. The problems of women aren't to be solved by being bitchy about men. Activism is great. Victimization is not.
5. Why so many of them persist in believing the Hollywood ideal of beauty is really the ideal. Ugh. Anorexia is not a fashion statement, ladies.
