Meanwhile, a meme:
Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."

I got two sets of questions! Let us begin with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jk_rockin:
1. What are you planning to call your band? My running favourite so far is The Body Electric, from the Walt Whitman poem via the Ray Bradbury book. I am also inordinately fond of Kitsch'n'Sync because I am a geek and cannot resist a pun. That may have to be the title of my side project or an album of misc that doesn't fit anywhere or something.
2. Is there anything you wish on? Falling stars, first stars? Rainbows? Not really? lol sry dude :P
3. Do you prefer well-written gen or well-written porn? That is an unanswerable question! They are both le awesome! Why can't I just pick well-written :P
4. If you had to pick one right now, who would you say are your favourite band? Why? Man, that is also really tricky but I gotta say the Mountain Goats. Other bands sound more awesome more consistently but I am at heart a lyrics gal and you can't beat John Darnielle of that "Oh. Wow. Oh." factor.
5. What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done? Hahaha well, I jaywalk on a regular basis... I climb shit... and there was this time a waitress stabbed me? you might have heard about that? :P But actually it was probably this hilarious event, which I came out of miraculously whole and unmolested. *shrug*
And now, frommishka_jayne:
1. If given the choice, would you switch vocal chords with somebody? Who? Goodness, I don't think so, I would be freaked out every time I opened my mouth! ...some people might like this :P (if I did it would probably be Regina Spektor <3)
2. What song is bugging your brain right now? Most recently, I think, "Loathing" from Wicked. Loathing! Un-a-dul-terated loathing! :D it is so cheery.
3. Best costume idea you've yet to do? Oh man this probably isn't the best but I am looking forward to the Corinthian SO MUCH.
4. Favourite series of books? argh whyyy all these horrible favourite questions! Nnngh! I've probably gotta say Discworld. It has been my love since I was ten, recent flings with Vorkosigan and the Stainless Steel Rat and other bits of awesomeness aside.
5. Give me a song that should NEVER be covered. Huh. Tricky. Because it's so good in the original or because it's so crap that it would be a waste? The thing is that good songs can always be added a new dimension to by drastically altering the style, and it's hard to find something too crap to cover in a world that contains the Lounge version of Rancid Amputation.
...NO WAIT I HAVE IT. Zombie, by the Cranberries! The wailing is pretty much unreplicable, you sound ridiculous trying, and doing it without the wailing would be... epic, if you could pull it off, but... it just wouldn't be the same.
