Outcast Genius 69 % Nerd, 69% Geek, 60% Dork

For The Record: A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia. A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one. A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions. You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius. Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don’t care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject). Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.

I had actually expected more people to play this, but I guess not. As it stands, Tygerlander wins with one answer, and Jenn gets second place for getting #15 half-right (she had the song title wrong). The sad thing is… I expected her to get #8, and for Foxie to get #18. If anyone had gotten #3, though, it would have shocked me as I can count on one hand how many people have even heard of the artist. All in all, though, this meme illustrates beautifully how varied my musical tastes are. That said… the answers:

1) All around me, I see what weakness has made — Collective Soul – Needs

2) The sun rises to another day — Creed – Illusion

3) When the big boys meet on the Sunset Strip, yeah — Steve Stevens – Atomic Playboys

4) From the coast of gold across the seven seas — Iron Maiden – Wasted Years

5) With the sun right through, departed into darkness, I need someone too — Clannad – Now is Here

6) You better watch what you say — Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers – You Got Lucky

7) Strange shapes light up the night — Blue Oyster Cult – Take Me Away

8) In the jungle I run tonight — Journey – Only Solutions

9) I know that your powers of retention — Jeremy Irons, Whoopi Goldberg, Cheech Marin, & Jim Cummings – Be Prepared

10) Ya better come inside when you’re ready to — Def Leppard – Armageddon It

11) At first I didn’t have the will to carry on — Seal – Bring It On

12) Broken lines, broken strings — Kenny Wayne Shepherd – Everything is Broken

13) Upon a darkened night the flame of love was burning in my breast — Loreena McKennitt – The Dark Night of the Soul

14) Sad suffering, I knew you when, farewell thee friend of mine — Alice in Chains – Get Born Again

15) All that you touch, all that you see — Pink Floyd – Eclipse

16) I hear your heartbeat but you’re never there — Pat Benatar – Painted Desert

17) I hear a voice in the room next to mine — Stevie Nicks – If Anyone Falls

18) Confusion in her eyes that says it all — Joy Division – She’s Lost Control

19) Playground schoolbell rings, again — Evanescence – Hello

20) Well someone told me yesterday — The Police – So Lonely

Rules:
Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song.
Step 2a: When the title is in the first line of the song, post the next one….
Step 3: Post and let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from.
Step 4: Strike out the songs when someone guesses correctly.
Step 5: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!

(I should mention that it was rather time-consuming to do this, as I didn’t want any repeat artists plus I have a lot of instrumental tracks. That said… good luck!)
