Tarot cards and crystal balls are soooo yesterday
Micke, over at Martinsson’s Lair, found this fortune-telling-by-iPod thing, and of course I had to try it out as well. What would my music library tell me about my future? Well, here goes:
How are you feeling today? -> Walk Tall - Nils Landgren Funk Unit
Well, not exactly how I felt this morning when I woke up…
What song describes you? -> Nu är det väl revolution på gång - Bob Hund
Translation: “Now there’s got to be a revolution coming“. Hope any prospective employer doesn’t read this, might scare them away.
How do your friends see you? -> Average Man - Turin Brakes
Ouch, that hurt. Really? You guys!? I used to like you, but now I’m not so sure anymore.
What is the best thing about your friends? -> Elite - Kent
That should make Per happy - he’s a self-confessed elitist :-)
How is your life going? -> Naxalite - Asian Dub Foundation
Not sure how to interpret that… The text goes something like
“Because I am just a naxalite warrior / Fighting for survival and equality / Police man beating up me, my brother and my father / My mother crying can’t believe this reality”
Not quite the way I feel things are happening right now, but who knows. It might change…
What is the story of your life? -> Believe in Me - Lenny Kravitz
Hmm.
What were your high school years like? -> Bla Bla Bla - Helt Off
Not sure I agree. Although school wasn’t exactly challenging, I wouldn’t call it (or the friends I made there) blah.
How can you get ahead of life? -> Skrubbsår - Lok
Translation: “Scratchwounds“. I.e., bring out those sharp elbows, and start working on it.
What is tonight going to be like? -> Live Long - Kings of Convenience
When I ran this through my iTunes library (more variety than on a 4Gb iPod), then quite surprisingly the excellent (hrm…) Night Rocker by David Hasselhoff came up. Is that a sign?
Haze - Daniel Lemma
Not actually true. Sorry. No haze this weekend. Maybe some compensation next week?
Will you have a happy life? -> Låg - Lars Winnerbäck
Translation: “Low”. Doesn’t look good for my future at all.
How does the world see you? -> Cowboys - Kent
Even without the hat…
What song will they play at your funeral? -> Track 1 - Debbie Does Dogs
I very much doubt that. Would be different, for sure. Debbie Does Dogs is a local band from somewhere around Linköping in Sweden (I think), and I got their demo from a friend. Don’t even know what the track is called. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
What do your friends really think of you? -> Stanna Hos Mig - Kent
Do they want me to stay with them? A little scary, this.
Do people secretly lust after you? -> Title & Registration - Death Cab for Cutie
Cut from the lyrics:
“Cause behind its door there’s nothing to keep my fingers warm / And all i find are souvenirs from better times / Before the gleam of your taillights fading east / To find yourself a better life”
Doesn’t look too good on the secret lust front, I would say. What am I doing wrong?
How can you make yourself happy? -> Execution Day - New Pornographers
Ouch…
What should you do with your life from now on? -> Death of an Interior Decorator - Death Cab for Cutie
Does this mean I should kill an interior decorator, or become an interior decorator that really sucks? Doesn’t seem to be very good either way.
Will you get married? -> Afro - Erykah Badu
Have absolutely no idea about this. The day I get an afro I will get married? Then never, although an afro is pretty cool. I don’t really have the hair for it, that’s all.
Will you ever have children? -> Man of Animal - Audioslave
Like Micke pointed out, this is kind of like his result on this questions: Sheepdog with Mando Diao. Hehe :-) Seems like both of our bloodlines are stopping right here, at least in human form.
