Nov. 28th, 2012 10:33 pmI'm stealing a meme from
ruthling here, but modifying it substantially.
Give me an interesting set of things which are roughly opposites (examples below) and, for each entry, I'll give you a song from my music library with the word in the title.
For example:
King: The Band - King Harvest (Has Surely Come)
Queen: Erin McKeown - Queen of Quiet
Ninja: Woodpigeon - Death by Ninja (A Love Song)
Pirate: Joe Strummer - Redemption Song (ok, I had to cheat here and use the lyrics)
Robot: Andrew Bird - Not A Robot, But a Ghost
Cowboy: Josh Joplin Group - I am not the Only Cowboy
Eagle: New Riders of the Purple Sage - Last Lonely Eagle
Giant: Strand of Oaks - Giant's Despair
(4th item omitted because it's time to stop using that word. Also, it doesn't appear in my library)
