So earlier on fairlight got introduced to HoneyHoney's song "My Little Toy Gun". Around the same time, sol_ar pointed me at Scissor Sisters "I Can't Decide".

Neither of these songs are nice. In fact, the latter has distinctly NSFW lyrics. Violence in both, and bad language with general crudity in "I Can't Decide".

Somehow, both of them have wound up on a playlist for an as-yet unnamed character (probably male) in an as-yet nonexistent book.

"I Can't Decide" in particular hits some of my potential music kinks: I believe I can identify banjo, accordion, piano, mouth harp, kazoo, along with cheerful lyrics about a dreadful topic. I don't think I've ever loved a song like this quite this much.

I have got to hit bed, but I think part of tomorrow is going to be devoted to scribbling down things about whoever the fuck this character actually happens to be.

/me claims blame.

MINE!!!!!

I'm unsure about how much sanity this character has.

I've always thought that "I Can't Decide" would make a great Sopranos fanvid.

[azurelunatic]

Oh, wow, I bet it would.

Oooh - I absolutely love these two songs - interestingly enough found both through watching various shows: Little Toy Gun was used in a fabulous sequence on "Life"; and of course "I can't decide" was from Dr Who when the Master is large and in charge - I can't believe they were allowed to use it.

Both songs cheerfully twisted. In particular, I love "I can't decide" for the line "lock the doors and close the blinds/we're going for a ride" delivered in that faux-Elton style.

Can't wait to meet the character who has these songs as his soundtrack!

[azurelunatic]

Evidently Elton John helped write it, and it was him on piano. :D

This character, whatever he is up to, is not anything like nice.

susannah_emily was equally freaked out.

I love "I Can't Decide", and am so happy JD turned me on to Scissor Sisters!

[jd]

Do you want more Scissor Sisters? Their stuff is so good.

[azurelunatic]

Yes. Please bring with. Y'all are staying with me so it will not be a problem.

Although everything's on my hard drive, I guess I should probably drag along the external for ease of transfer.

I Can't Decide was used by the Master in season three of Doctor Who. It earwormed me, and I sang it (most of the times in my head, sometimes out loud) during my entire anesthesia placement.

Anything to stop the pain, I see.
