- - why i am (http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/showthread.php?t=1786)

Because you are NOT that's why!

this thread reminds me of that bit in Zoolander where he's looking into the puddle and saying..."who am i?"

hey, let's make like 20 "why am i *insert-stupid-shit-here*" threads and fill the whole page. sonic trollism is kewl.

i'm chevy chase & you're not

Dear god these threads are getting a little too extreme for me
I LIKE BOOBIES!!!

why i am reminds of what i am by edie brickwell and the new bohemians (that's her name and the band's name if i'm not mistaken)

what a crappy song.

whoever asks who that band in the picture is gets punched in the arm by everyone else in the board

Ugly fuckers, weren't they. I like love me do, that was my favourite song of theirs.

[Bring it, bitch]

is that the song..."throw me in the shallow water, before i get too deep"

i always questioned her use of the word "deep" there...

deep...deep deep....deep... word has lost all meaning... deep

brickell--- i saw her open for the grateful dead once upon a time. a total hippie. likely smelled heavily of patchouli. (the whole place did, anyway)

i can only imagine, places like that make you ponder about nerve gas and systematic genocide, don't they?

thanks for the clarification

This is me.......for now, till i change my mind.
So, who are you again?

Who Am I?
Lou Reed, NYC man (2003 remastered comp)

Sometimes I wonder who am I
the world seeming to pass me by
A younger man now getting old
I have to wonder what the rest of life will hold

I hold a mirror to my face
there are some lines that I could trace
To memories of loving you
the passion that breaks reason in two

I have to think and stop me now
if reminisces make you frown
One thinks of what one hoped to be
and then faces reality

Sometimes I wonder who am I
who made the trees, who made the sky
Who made the storms, who made heartbreak
I wonder how much life I can take

I know I like to dream a lot
and think of other worlds that are not
I hate that I need air to breathe
I'd like to leave this body and be free

I'd like to float like a mystic child
I'd like to kiss an angel on the brow
I'd love to solve the mysteries of life
by cutting someone's throat or removing their heart

You'd like to see it beat
you'd like to hold your eyes
And though you know I'm dead
you'd like to hold my thighs

If it's wrong to think on this
to hold the dead past in your fist
Why were we given memories
let us lose our minds and be set free

Some-, sometimes I, I wonder who am I
the world seeming to pass me by
A younger man now getting old
I have to wonder what the rest of life will hold

I wonder
I wonder -

- Ooohhh, who started all this
was God in love and gave a kiss
To someone who later betrayed
and Godless love sent us away

To someone who later betrayed
and Godless love sent us away

WHEN GOD MADE ME
Neil Young, Prairie Wind (2005)

Was he thinking about my country,
or the colour of my skin?
Was he thinking about my religion,
and the way I worshipped him?
Did he create just me in his image,
or every living thing?

When God made me.
When God made me.

Was he planning only for believers,
or for those who just had faith?
Did he envision all wars
that were fought in his name?
Did he say there was only one way
to be close to him?

When God made me.
When God made me.

Did he give me the gift of love
to say who I could choose?

When God made me.
When God made me.
When God made me.

Did he give me the gift of voice
so some could silence me?
Did he give me the gift of vision
not knowing what I might see?
Did he give me the gift of compassion
to help my fellow man?

When God made me.
When God made me.
When God made me.

Even spookier(and now you are really freaking me out darling)is the fact that i was talking about ''synchronicity'' between people with my councellor a few days ago.This is so odd i'll be thinking about it all night later on when i go to watch the Drag Idol contest
