#NowPlaying: Eminem - Lose Yourself

Just watched 8 Mile this weekend ... cue @GoMiso checkin:

 

Haven't seen the movie in years ... but literally this song is what makes my heart beat. Gets me SOOOOOOOOO pumped.

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

BAHHHHHH!! Love love love it. Enjoy, nerds!

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs,
but he keeps on forgettin what he wrote down,
the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's choking now, everybody's joking now
The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Easy, no
He won't have it , he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stagnant that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This this whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

[Hook:]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

The soul's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it's old partner but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

[Hook]

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfucking roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhyming and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cause man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Trying to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screaming on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not cause maybe the only opportunity that I got

[Hook]

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

Yep, I once listened to this ... 

Growing up, I used to FREAK OUT when this song came on the radio. I even cried tears of joy the day I actually bought it on tape, as I was never able to record it from the radio. Yep, pre-illegal downloading the nerdy youth used to just tape record the radio or TV. So ghetto, I loved it!

Either way ... taking a ride down memory lane, and I am so ashamed to admit that I ever listened to this. It's completely intolerable. Apologies in advance.

*hangs head*

Shame Party of 1. Shame ... Party of 1.

#NowPlaying: Don Henley - All she wants to do is dance

When life hands you a serious case of the blues, why not reach over and grab your dancin' shoes!

 

They're picking up the prisoners
All putting them in a pen
And all she wants to do is dance,dance
Rebels have been rebels since I don't know when
And all she wants to do is dance
Molotov cocktail,the local drink
And all she wants to do is dance
They mix them up right in the kitchen sink
And all she wants to do is dance
Crazy people walking around with blood in their eyes
And all she wants to do is dance,dance,dance
Wild-eyed pistol wavers who ain't afraid to die
And all she wants to do is
All she wants to do is dance,dance
And make romance
She can't feel the heat comming off the street
She wants to party
She wants to get down
All she wants to do
All she wants to is dance


Well the goverment,bugged the men's room
In the local disco lounge
All she wants to do is dance,dance
To keep the boys from selling
All the weapons they can scrounge
All she wants to do is dance
But that don't keep the boys
From making a buck or two
And all she wants to do is dance,dance
They still can sell the army
All the drugs that they can do
And all she wants to do is
All she wants to do is dance
And make romance


Well,we barley made the airport
For the last plane out
As we taxied down the runway
I could hear the people shout they said:
"Don't come back here again.Yankee"
But if I do I'll bring back more money
Cause all she wants to do is dance
And make romance


Nevermind the heat
Comming off the street
She wants to party
She wants to get down
All she wants to do is
All she wants to do is dance
And make romance
All she wants to do is dance

Thanks for posting this on Facebook @NatalieKBeats!! #NerdsUnite INDEED!!

#NowPlaying: Flight of the Conchords - If You're Into It

#TalkNerdyToMeLover's @JenSquard

Never heard of Flight of the Conchords?  They are an awesomely funny folk singing duo from New Zealand.  Bret and Jemaine.  *yummy*  YouTube them.  Watch any of their videos.  Or episodes from their two seasons on HBO.  You can thank me later.

If you want me to,
I can hang 'round with you.
If I only knew
that that's what you're into.

You and him
Him and you.
If that's what
you're into.
Him hangin 'round
around you.
You're hangin 'round,
yeah, you're there, too.

And, if you want me to,
I will take off all my clothes for you.
I'll take off all my clothes for you-
If that's what you're into.

How 'bout him,
in the nude?
If that's what
you're into.
In the nude
in front of you.
Is that what
you'd wanna view?

And if it's cool with you,
I'll let you get naked, too.
It could be a dream come true,
providing that's what you are into.

Is that what
you're into-
you and him
in the nude?
That's what he's
prepared to do.
Is that the kind of thing
that you think you might be into?

And then, maybe later
we'd get hot by the refrigerator.
In the kitchen, next to the pantry.
You think that might be what you fancy?

In the buff,
being rude.
Doing stuff
with the food.
Getting nude
with his food.
We heard that's what
you are into.

And then on our next date,
well, you could bring your roomate.
I don't know if Stew is keen, too-
but if you want, we could double-team you.

How 'bout you
and two dudes?
Him, you and Stew
in the nude.
Being lewd
with two dudes
and food.
Well, that's just if Stew's
into it, too.

All the things I'd do
Things I'd do for you.
If I only knew,
that that's what you're into.
