~november rain.

November, November, November Rain.

The song that has been on my mind for so, so long. (A week)

I was only merely exaggerating.

But, it's a nine minute song.. OF AWESOMENESS.

I love the violins.

Seriously, you don't really hear violins in rock songs. Or in many of them. Apart from Kashmir. (Led Zeppelin.) They sound so EPIC. Especially somewhere near the end, before Slash's solo.

Turns out he isn't a traitor after all. (with the Rihanna ft. 'Slash' thing) What the heck. Can't hear Slash at all. WEIIIIIIIIIIRD.

One song I must learn on guitar, or VIOLIN if possible,

NOVEMBER RAIN. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Drooldrooldrool.

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain~

Just the first verse. It's so sad.

In the video, Slash is standing on a grand piano. And Axl. Oh my gosh, Axl. He plays piano? GASSSSSSSSSSSSP. :O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O.



~enjoy. I think Annie will like this song the most out of all of you guys.

~bloo.

p.s. Just a bit of trivia.

November Rain's mentioned in Regina Spektor's song, 'On the Radio.' (yeah, Glo)

Guessing game, dearie.

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.

Step 2: Post the first two lines from the first 25 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing

.Step 3: Bold the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.

Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

Just so you know, I'm typing what I hear so it may not necessarily be the right lyrics.

1. 'Keep you in the dark, you know they all pretend,
Keep you in the dark and so they all begin..'


2. 'Wouldn't you believe it's just my luck [x4]'
(As another clue, the next line is: No recess)


3. 'Too alarming now to talk about,
Take your pictures down and shake it out..


4. 'As he came into the window,
There was a sound of a crescendo..'


5. 'It's all the same,
Only the names will change..'


6. 'Load up on guns, bring your friends,
It's fun to lose, and to pretend..'


7. 'In my eyes, I'm not lazy.
In my face, it's not over.'


8. 'Take a step out on yourself,
And you turn around..'


9. 'They live a life that is comfortable,
They travel far to keep their stomachs full..'


10. 'Everybody was kung-fu fighting,
Those cats were fast as lightning..'
Foo Fighters - Kung Fu Fighting (Rachel)


11. 'I knew a girl called Nikki,
I guess you could say she was a sex fiend..'
Foo Fighters - Darling Nikki (Rachel)


12. 'Living easy, living free,
Season ticket on a one-way ride..'


13. 'She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak,
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks..'


14. 'There's a lady who's sure,
That all that glitters is gold..'
Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin (Annie)

15. 'You make me weak,
I wanna die..'



16. 'Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face,
With stars to fill my dreams..'



17. 'Oh baby, here comes the sound!
I took a train outta New Orleans and they shot me full of ephredine..'



18. 'Your eyes, followed me here,
Your eyes, seamless and sure..'



19. 'What else should I be?
All apologies..'



20. 'We passed upon the stairs,
Spoke of was and where..'
(Since there are two versions of the same song (the latter being the cover), giving the answer to either artist is accepted)


21. 'Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or his he blind?'



22. 'Polly wants a cracker,
I think I should get off her first..'
Polly - Nirvana (Annie)



23. 'I will never bother you,
I will never promise to..'




24. 'When I'm feeling tired,
She slips food through my door..'



25. 'New blood has joined this earth,
And quickly he's subdued..'

Have fun, this, to me, is a pretty hard one

Polly lyrics.

Polly wants a cracker,
I think I should get off her first.
I think she wants some water
To put out the blowtorch.

It isn't me,
Have a seed.
Let me clip
Your dirty wings.
Let me take a ride,
Cut yourself.
Want some help,
To please myself.
Got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride,
Hurt yourself.
Want some help,
Help myself.

Polly wants a cracker,
Maybe she would like more food.
Ask me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few.

Isn't me,
Have a seed.
Let me clip
Your dirty wings.
Let me take a ride,
Cut yourself.
Want some help,
To please myself.
Got some rope
Have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride,
Cut yourself.
Want some help,
Please myself.

Polly said.

Polly says her back hurts,
She's just as bored as me.
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct..

Isn't me,
Have a seed.
Let me clip
Your dirty wings.
Let me take a ride,
Cut yourself.
Want some help,
Please myself.
Got some rope
Have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride,
Cut yourself.
Want some help,
Please myself.

Those are lyrics to a song I've been trying to memorise for a while. It's Polly, by Nirvana. It's based on a true story about a rape victim who was fourteen at the time who got abducted in 1987 while returning from a punk rock show - she was tortured with razors and a blowtorch.

There's a couple of alternate lyrics T__T This one's from the Nevermind CD.

Kurt did put somewhat of a narrative flourish into the song though - Polly manages to escape by flirting with her captor convincing him to trust her. This allows her to escape.

I need to put on tabs just so then I remember them later on.

Ten minute sketch

Dear readers and friends.

I am not very good at drawing.

But I drew something that I was proud of.

And it was..

A wedding cake.

But it wasn't an ordinary wedding cake, mesdames et messieurs.

IT WAS A GUNS N' ROSES THEMED CAKE. AWESOME MUCH? And Annie and Andrew are getting married.

I drew it in my friend's VA book, but she'll scan it and upload it on:

unidenitified-blog.blogspot.com/ I hope. Unless if it's on her HitRecord, but you better ask her about that.

It only took ten minutes, so there's still a million faults, but I'm proud of myself.
