\o\ You profit, I profit; prophets of Tesco!

So, apparently my brain still doesn't want to come out of its psychotic funk, and pounding away at textbooks is a known cure for life, not for depression. ERGO, LIVEJOURNAL.

Mmm, livejournal. I will trade any cool, kind and amazing soul who'll recommend me/link me to/give me two or three feel good songs to play whilst I chip away at the behemoth structure that is my life a ficlet of around four hundred or so words.

I'm looking for seriously brainless songs, here. Hit me with things that would make Bruce Wayne drive a car really fast down an expressway. Things that Tseng would burn onto a disc just to put through a papershredder*. Things that have a lot of people shouting incoherent, animalistic phrases like "OH YEAH" in the backgroud. I want so many beats per minute that I'll be able to use the song as a Weapon of Mass Vibration. I want so much bass that I can't hear the guitars. Or the vocals. Hip hop and Justin Timberlake and stuff you'd find on Iron Man or Hancock (move bitch, get out 'the way). Party songs. Songs in a language I do not/cannot understand and therefore cannot parse. Songs you secretly dance to while stripping. Or while putting clothes on, if that's your kink.

* though this proces is extremely inconvenient, inefficient, and costly in terms of ordinance

If you don't want to rec them to me with your LJ username attached, you can safely bring to light your Rihanna or Britney Spears collection by posting anonymously. 8D Or if you don't want anyone to know that you want evil!Bruce/tiny!Dick, or something.

Make this vaguely depressed writer happy, and give her songs that will make studying and life less painful while making her do something she truly a) enjoys and b) feels capable of. I don't care if you're on my flist - hell, invite people over if you think that they have a) good music or b) a dire need for fic.

If the fandom's obscure, just ask. :D

*tempts you*

*tempts you all*

*and makes pathetic noises at the same time*

Well, there's this picture, you see. And whenever I see it, it makes me think of you. So something based off of this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v149/AikoNamika/33e.jpg)?

And yeah, I literally just started flipping through my playlist going, "Good song, good song, good song but depressing so not right now, good song, horrifically depressing song..." *grin*

Ameno is one of those songs I'll listen to on repeat over and over and over, and not have any clue what repetition I'm on.

I find it really kinda cool how a lot of music that fandom listens to seems to border just on the edge of pop and alternative; it's like, no one really, really listens to the stuff that's consistently playing on the radio (show me a fandom hip hop fan! WHERE ARE THEY?!), but there's a lot of common ground between a lot of people re: weird music. OH WORLD, YOU ARE STRANGE.

Rufus/Tseng, huh? Lesse. *rubs chin* I shall think on it over lunch! These two are so plotty. *STABS THEM DEAD*

No, what it is is that the mature parts of fandom arean't really into the stuff on the radio. If you check out the badly-written songfics produced by idiotic twelve-year-olds, I imagine there's plenty of that stuff.

...of course, I wouldn't touch badly-written songfics produced by idiotic twelve-year-olds with a fifty-foot pole, but that's just me. *grin*

Well, it's that picture, and the mental image of Tseng being all courtly at Rufus that really hits me. Kneeling and kissing the back of his hand. I don't know why. *headdesk*

I thank small, fandom-shaped gods that most of that stays on FF.net before it grows up and migrates over to LJ. xD

Courtly Tseng is very fun to write. Getting Rufus to be good enough to be courtly is another thing altogether. That kid is a rich boy with power issues and a vicious pet dog. Cat. Thing.
