Wizarding Games: Musical Guess Who. Only Not Really. Again.

[theaeblackthorn.livejournal.com]

Aha! A game!

Title: Musical Guess Who. Only Not Really. Again.

Deadline: 28th December 5pm UTC. converter.

Details: You can post up to three songs to represent a character. You don't get to say who they are though! Members have got to guess! You've got to keep an eye on your thread and say 'yes' or 'no' to members answers.

You can quote lyrics if you'd like, but try not to make the comments too long, or make it too obvious. Also you can't guess twice in a row.

To link to songs please use last.fm, youtube or grooveshark or similar sites. No downloads unless it's a 'free' song anyway.

Characters can be done more than once. Song titles are asked for because links may not work for all people. :)

Note: If you want full points, it needs to be a HP character, but feel free to play with non-HP chars by putting, 'NON HP' as the subject! You only get half points for guessing/posting the non-HP ones though.

Bonus: Well, this is very musical! So I think you'll be needing some Black Choir Robes, #116 for this. Yes they are part of the music club's bonus items.

Don't worry, that number book will come in use again!

Points: 2pts for guessing a character right. 2pts for posting a set of three songs. Cap of 30pts.

Note: you can only get a maximum of 14pts from posting songs, but feel free to post over that! To use the bonus item you must earn at least 10pts.

Remember to sign your name with each comment

To tell me you've got the bonus item: (reply to right thread)
<b>link to bonus item if you've got it:</b> http://hih.leaky-sponge.com/owned_items.php?username=YOUR USERNAME#116

To play:
<b>Song #1:</b> <a href="">Artist - Title</a> <b>Song #2:</b> <a href="">Artist - Title</a> <b>Song #3:</b> <a href="">Artist - Title</a> - username // house


Also? Not a member? Want to join? Go here!

1. Marina and the Diamonds - Mowgli's Road (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4LVAu0pxHc)

ten silver spoons coming after me/one life with one dream on repeat
i'll escape if i try hard enough/till king of the jungle calls my bluff

you say y-e-s to everything/will that guarantee you a win
do you think you will be good enough/to love others and to be loved

we are the spoons metally mean/we scooped our way into your dreams
to knock the knives out bloody cold/and lead you down the unforsaken road.

oh lord now i can see/the cutlery will keep on chasing me
there's a fork in the road/i'll do as as i am told
and i don't know don't know don't know don't know who i wanna be
who i want to be

2. Lily Allen - Back to the Start (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DuVt1k8bdM)

when we were growing up you always looked like you were having such fun
you always were and you always will be the taller and the prettier one
people seem to love you they gravitate towards you
that's why i started to hate you so much and i just completely ignored you

i don't know why i felt the need to keep it up for oh so long
it's all my fault i'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong
i don't know why i felt the need to drag it out for all these years
all the pain I've caused you the constant flow of all the tears
believe me when i say that i cannot apologize enough
when all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
and if it's not too late could you please find it deep within your heart
to try and go back go back to the start

3. Cloud Cult - No One Said it Would Be Easy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zm2crcclfNI)

you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
you're a pretty human being
yeah you're a pretty human being
when it all comes crashing down
try to understand your meaning
no one said it would be easy
this living it ain't easy

I DON'T KNOW HOW EASY THIS IS GOING TO BE GUYS I AM SORRY

1. Cloud Cult - Washed Your Car (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6JMe6ztIXQ)

i washed your car last week you gave me a kiss on the cheek
i asked if you would be my sweet you said "baby not me"
i mowed your lawn yesterday you gave me six bucks and i said
"let's have some lemonade" you said "go away"
i built your cupboards out of my bones shoveled your snow with an ice cream cone
i asked if you would be my own you said "leave me alone"
a raked your leaves with my toes tilled your garden with my nose
i asked if you would be my beau you said "no no no"

2. Cloud Cult - The Will of a Volcano (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfPTkB7wXCY)

you have a precious little mind
you paint a perfect little rainbow
you will make this right
you have the will of a volcano

3. Flobots - Handlebars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLUX0y4EptA)

i can tie a knot in a cherry stem
i can tell you about leif ericson
i know all the words to "de colores"
and "i'm proud to be an american"
me and my friend saw a platypus
me and my friend made a comic book
and guess how long it took
i can do anything that i want cuz look:
i can keep rhythm with no metronome
i can see your face on the telephone
...
i can make new antibiotics
i can make computers survive aquatic conditions
i know how to run a business
and i can make you wanna buy a product
movers shakers and producers
me and my friends understand the future
i see the strings that control the systems
i can do anything with no assistance
cause i can lead a nation with a microphone
and i can split the atoms of a molecule
Check out the lyrics at the end too, it's really too much to put in here.

1. Sophie Ellis Bextor - Today The Sun's On Us (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkxoiAQ4h_8) (ignore the video)

i can see you're somewhere far away
caught in another place where nothing's going right
shouldn't worry about the worst that could be
when you're here beside me
don't look for troubled times
now when everything is fine
so you need to fear the bad to see the good
and that's the thing you do but don't let it spoil the view
of what's around you
there's no rain, there's no storm
though the blue sky makes you wonder
don't you fear what will come will come
and right now we're in the sun
sure enough seasons change
but don't let today get lost
cause today the sun's on us


2. Bo Burnham - I'm Bo Yo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-ap5Fp2T6c)

i'm bo yo and im the greatest rappa eva
and I'll weather your weather whether you think i'm clever or not
think your better you're not
don't need a sweater i'm hot
i'm a real g shawty that can really find your g spot
...what the hell's a g spot?


3. Marina and the Diamonds - Girls (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jcXarAImqI)
(this does not necessarily mean the character is a girl >.> only pay attention to what I've quoted, as the song is all over the place)

i feel i've been riding in a fast car
burning dirty gas won't get you that far
i feel i've been riding up the wrong path
but i'm gonna make sure i get the last laugh

is there any possibility
you'll quit gossiping about me
to hide your insecurities
all you say is "blah, blah"
girls they never befriend me
cause i fall asleep when they speak
of all the calories they eat
all they say is "na na na na na"


Think of this as slightly more representative of their earlier days...

1. Cloud Cult - Today We Give Ourselves to the Fire (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLQM4TO7_Bg)

put out your hands put out your hands put out your hands
i know you're scared i know you're scared i know it's scary
light up your fire light up your fire light up your fire
i know you're scared i know you're scared i know it's scary
it's cold in your ribs cause you say they came and burned you down
not gonna take it, they can't put your fire out
we will sing till there's nothing left to be sung
not gonna take it, they can't put our fire out
i am alive i am alive i am alive
i promise i'm a well intentioned explosion
here comes the light here comes the light give me that light
today we give ourselves to the fire
put out your hands put out your hands put out your hands
i know you're scared i know you're scared i know it's scary
light up your fire light up your fire light up your fire
i know you're scared i know you're scared i know it's scary


2. Katy Perry - Firework (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGJuMBdaqIw)

do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting throught the wind wanting to start again
do you ever feel feel so paper thin like a house of cards one blow from caving in
do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under scream but no one seems to hear a thing
do you know that there's still a chance for you cause there's a spark in you
you don't have to feel like a waste of space you're original cannot be replaced
if you only knew what the future holds after a hurricane comes a rainbow
maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed so you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
like a lightning bolt your heart will blow and when it's time you'll know
boom boom boom even brighter than the moon moon moon
it's always been inside of you and now it's time to let it through

you just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
just own the night like the fourth of july
cause baby you're a firework come on show em what your worth
make em go oh oh oh as you shoot across the sky
baby you're a firework come on let your colors burst
make em go oh oh oh you're gonna leave em fallin down


3. Fair to Midland - The Walls of Jericho (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTpNb1VxOfU&feature=related)

another tomorrow fills up my front window
outlasting the west wind and building ourselves in
so fly and grab my hand here comes the crash
i live for the strong impact that renders both our airbags
seven folds take very letter you send don't fold if you're made to bend
rekindle the feud again
string up your harp play like today will last five minutes
this won't take long sing us a song that stops the silence
another tomorrow shedding the shade we made yesterday
disguised as the lightning dissolving all of the thunder then
appeasing our monsters under the acrylic skies
another tomorrow

1. Rihanna - Take a Bow (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3UjJ4wKLkg)

oh and the award for the best liar goes to you
for making me believe that you could be faithful to me
let's hear your speech
how about a round of applause a standing ovation
but you put on quite a show really had me going
now it's time to go curtain's finally closing
that was quite a show very entertaining
but it's over now
go on and take a bow

2. Ke$ha - Backstabber (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBbrqgiTuuo)

all i ever did was drive your broke ass around
pick you up take you out when your car broke down
back back backstabber
stabber stabber
back back backstabber
girl you're such a backstabber
oh girl you're such a shit talker
and everybody knows it
and everybody knows it

3. Amanda Palmer - Blake Says (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wU8N7TGHUQ)

blake says no one ever really loved him
they just faked it to get money from the government
and blake thinks angels grow when you plant angel dust
he shakes his pretty head
but darling trust me trust me
he's no valentine
though he said he would be mine
his heart is in alaska all the time

blake stays underwater for the most part
he collects loose change for all tomorrow's parties
and when blake dates girls with tattoos of the pyramids
he breaks their hearts
by saying it's not permanent
but in his velvet mind
he believes with all his might
we'll all go to Alaska when we die

blake makes friends but only for a minute
he prefers the things he orders from the internet
and blake's been having trouble with his head again
he takes his pills
but never takes his medicine
like candy in his prime
he likes his shirts to shine
and when it's two o'clock it feels like nine

blake says he is sorry he got through to me
if it's ok he'll call right back and talk to the machine
blake says it looks like acid rain today
he takes the fish inside
he's very kind that way
but just like caroline
he doesn't seem to mind
the globe is getting warmer all the time

it's still cold in alaska
it's still cold in alaska

1. Marina and the Diamonds - I Am Not a Robot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_oMD6-6q5Y)

you've been acting awful tough lately
smoking a lot of cigarettes lately
but inside you're just a little baby
it's okay to say you've got a weak spot
you don't always have to be on top
better to be hated than love love loved for what you're not

you've been hanging with the unloved kids
who you never really liked and you never trusted
but you are so magnetic you pick up all the pins
never committing to anything
you don't pick up the phone when it ring ring rings
don't be so pathetic just open up and sing

you're vulnerable you're vulnerable
you are not a robot
you're loveable so loveable
but you're just troubled
guess what
you are not a robot

2. Emilie Autumn - I Want My Innocence Back (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQke7emPY6g)

i want my innocence back
and if you can't give it to me
i will cut you down
and i will run you through
with the dagger you sharpened
on my body and soul
before you slit me in two
and then devoured me whole

i want my innocence back
i want my innocence back
i want my innocence back

and i demand
you put my heart back in my hand
and wipe it clean
from the mess you made of me
and i require
you make me free from this desire
and when you leave i'd better be the innocent
i used to be


3. Fair to Midland - Orphan Anthem '86 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbhA_FIxgGA)

we're gone but not better
a lighted match can burn the cabin down he built
It's not long but it matters
your suit and tie are much too tight in farmersville

my daughter's a goldmine, combing the hair of the white waves
a fountain of sapphires under the bridges of utah
instilled in us ethics not by god, but by our choice
i can't even imagine (but i can see it)

tell them all to chop me off with left handed scissors rusting when you're touched
on marble covered mountains you're the brimstone

when surrounded by comfort cotton floors are of no use
we see in our forecast what we lack in our pockets
encompassed by standards and we give ourselves all the credit
i can't put my finger on it (but i can see it)

tell them all to chalk me out with oval arms and hopscotch eyelids
on marble covered mountains you're my cargo

^--Guh, this is my favorite song in the world. Just saying. Also it took me forever (read: like a year) to really figure out what it meant so no guarantees there...

1. Otep - Smash the Control Machine (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1cv2IjKkic)

the clinic said i'm sick
toxic and impure
but there isn't any cure
for the poor or uninsured
so we live our digital lives on multiple screens
and we forget that the blood of the workers grease the machines
in the psalm of the fiends
love discriminates
while the fat cats feed the rats
their dose of daily cake
exploitation is contagious
for the selfish and self-inflated

start a war
use the poor
watch our profits soar and soar
we've become a nation of wolves
ruled by sheep owned by swine
overfed and put to sleep
and while the media elite decrees what to think
i am wide awake on the edge and on the brink

2. Cloud Cult - Everybody Here is a Cloud (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQu8YUoPM3Q)

and everybody here is a cloud
and everybody here will evaporate
you came up from the ground
from a million little pieces
have you found where your place is

you've been spending your time
thinking about why you think so much
if there was ever a time
now would be the time to see
your time here is limited

and everybody here is a crowd
we all walk around with a million faces
somebody turn the lights out
there's so much more to see
in our darkest places

3. Flobots - Stand Up (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdF-YkECTVc)

put your hands up high if you haven't abandoned
hope that the pen strokes stronger than the cannon
balls to the wall nose to the grindstone
my interrogation techniques leave your mind blown
so place your bets lets speak to the enemy
don't let em pretend that we seek blood
and who's we anyways kemo sabe
mighty warlord wanna-be street thug
a threat for a threat leaves the whole world terrified
blow for blow never settles the score
word for word is time need clarify
we the people did not want war

so stand up
we shall not be moved
except by a child with no socks and shoes
if you've got more to give then you've got to prove
put your hands up and i'll copy you
stand up
we shall not be moved
unless we're taking a route we have not pursued
so if you've got a dream and a lot to do
put your hands up and i'll copy you

There is a method to this madness, I promise D:

#02. Within Temptation - See Who I Am (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hpkk6MA06mE)

Break through the surface.
Reach for my hand,
Let's show them that we can
Free our minds and find a way.
The world is in our hands,
This is not the end.

#03. Nightwish - Crownless (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvfiyT8XNrE)
