Love Isn't Funny

Walking like a man
Don't you wanna go for a ride
So long ago I don't remember when
We are strong

I thought I saw a girl brought to life
Colonel Peron
Baby can't you see
See you blowing me a kiss

I wasn't jealous before we met
Some people say a man is made out of mud
How dare you say that my behaviour's unacceptable
Lost in a dream

Think of all the things I do
Zoom zoom zoom
If every word I said could make you laugh
Lonely fear lights up the sky

How do you document real life
Can you keep up?
If I, I get to know your name
Say you to me

(hahaha my collection of English songs is so schizophrenic. ^^; )

In other news, if you ask Google Maps for directions on how to walk from Victoria to Tokyo, it puts you on a ferry to Hawaii and from there tells you to "kayak across the Pacific Ocean." ETA: 91 days later. hahaha amazing. xDD

Hahaha, wow, I'd love to do this, but I'm not sure I have twenty English songs on my playlist... x.x I guess I could translate... Have you altered them at all, or did you just actually use the first line directly? Apart from Colonel Peron, I think it fits together surprisingly well! YOU SHOULD PUBLISH IT IN THE C REVIEW!

[arisha.livejournal.com]

Surprisingly enough, I didn't alter any of them! The only ones that could be considered to have been altered are ones where the song starts with dialogue, I ignored that and used the first line of the actual singing.

Apart from Colonel Peron, I think it fits together surprisingly well!

hahaha, are you kidding me? That line is the best part!! >xD

YOU SHOULD PUBLISH IT IN THE C REVIEW!

I'm too old now though~ ... :(

"I wasn't jealous before we met"

oh, I love this song!

[arisha.livejournal.com]

Me too!! :D I was very happy to see it on the big screen this summer. xD

[aurora-lime.livejournal.com]

I never knew you were an ABBA fan, I think this portion of the movie (and gimme gimme gimme) is my favorite in the whole show.

[arisha.livejournal.com]

I don't know that you can call me an ABBA fan when I actually really don't like "Dancing Queen" (TRAVESTY, I KNOW!!), but having said that I do like to pull out the Mamma Mia! soundtrack every so often. xD I agree, "Gimme Gimme Gimme" is awesome!! I also like "Knowing Me, Knowing You" a lot, but they cut that one out of the movie I guess ...

[aurora-lime.livejournal.com]

my other favorite song is "does your mother know" and I thought it was pretty funny how they adapted that into the movie.

I guess I like dancing queen, but I think it's one of my less liked songs. I appreciate it, but I'll never listen to it more than once. I've heard it too many times now. (then again, I liked how they played it out in the movie too, so young and spunky.)

lets rent it and watch it in the new year, ok?

[arisha.livejournal.com]

Yes, I definitely was amused by "Does Your Mother Know." xDD And yeah, I didn't mind "Dancing Queen" in the movie, but it still wasn't my favourite.

lets rent it and watch it in the new year, ok?

Okay!! :D I actually put it on my Christmas list, so maybe we won't even have to rent it. xD;

[aurora-lime.livejournal.com]

now I have this song stuck in my head :\ THANKS ARISHA. he he he

I love abba, but I try not to think about the songs so much, they're (mostly) all about sex. haha, well what can you expect.

" knowing me knowing you, ahaaaaa, there is nothing we can do, knowing me knowing you"

shoo kyinky! >:O *old woman voice*

[aurora-lime.livejournal.com]

and voulez-vous, that's the other oen I was thinking fo *is looking at her mamma mia CD*

[the-wykydtron.livejournal.com]

Do you have an Emma Bunton song in here? I seriously suspect that you DO.

[Also, props on your Twilicons.]

[arisha.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHA actually, as I typed that line I wondered if anyone would recognize it~ ... xDDD

(That is the only song of hers I've ever heard though. I mean, IN MY DEFENSE!!)

Victoria to Tokyo

[jeffypoo.livejournal.com]

When I tried looking up the same thing on Google, it said it would take 34 days, 12 hours to make the trip. Thing is, I could almost deal with kayaking from Seattle to Hawaii, then to Tokyo, but it would be a giant pain in the butt having to drag my kayak through the more than a dozen toll booths once I got into Tokyo.

34 days, 12 hours

Apparently Google believes you to be a faster kayaker than me! :(

I know, right?! And the traffic!!
