"it's dropping to the terrain at my feet
palm trees are my only company
on this beach
star crossed lovers obsess
alluring dreams of touching starry skies
i'll love you until my last breath
each speck of sand fills in each footstep along the shore
as every tide rolls in; every one takes its toll
the salt in this water is nauseating
keeping me trapped and running in circles
on this beach star crossed lovers obsess
alluring dreams of touching starry skies
a quick glance over my shoulder reveals a number only seen in the movies
shards of glass, and a decayed piece of parchment half buried that reads:
'you cured me of my foolish obsession with love'
i'll love you until my last breath takes you from me"

Analysis of changes:
· Five newbies to the chart: Michael Jackson with an awesome and totally expected leap to numero uno, OK Go at 20, Ke$ha at 30, Yeah Yeah Yeahs at 31, and Weezer edging in at 50.
· Fall-offs such as Norwegian Recycling, Radiohead, Watchout! There's Ghosts, Kerli, and Rilo Kiley just missed the cut.
· Jason Mraz gained eleven spots on the list, making him the highest gainer. This is mostly thanks to using Details in the Fabric and A Beautiful Mess as my lullaby on multiple occasions.
· Dance Gavin Dance lost eleven spots on the list, making them the biggest...loser? LOL. I haven't been listening to post-hardcore in a long time and Downtown Battle Mountain wore off on me. And I haven't bothered with their new stuff because I love Jonny Craig. So.
· I'd just like to mention I played Michael Jackson over 4,500 times within the last 6 months. He was on the rise when I was writing the first one. Hah.

Not saying The Fame Monster is horrible though. I love all of her music.

GOOSE EGG.

32. Is there a song by 44 that makes you happy? (Watchout! There's Ghosts)

34. What is the worst song by 45? (Kate Nash)

35. What was the first song you ever heard by 34? (Muse)
[track artist=Muse]Supermassive Black Hole[/track], probably. DON'T THINK BADLY OF ME. I listened to Muse before the whole Twilight movie explosion.
...though I was browsing Stephanie Meyer's playlist when I discovered she listened to Muse.

41. Is there a song by 41 that makes you happy? (Little Boots)
[track artist=Little Boots]Remedy[/track] is really uplifting. [track artist=Little Boots]Not Now[/track] also has a really pounding beat that gets me going.

42. What is your favorite album by 31? (blink-182)
Haven't really listened to any of their albums in full. I'm waiting for the new one to really dive in.
Most of the songs that I like on their Greatest Hits come from blink-182, though.

43. What is your favorite song by 24? (Paramore)
I hate this question. [track artist=Paramore]Where the Lines Overlap[/track]?

44. What is a good memory you have involving 46? (Shiny Toy Guns)
Ooh, this kid at a party had We Are Pilots. He was really cool.

45. What is your favorite song by 35? (Say Anything)
[track artist=Say Anything]Crush'd[/track] is cute.
[track artist=Say Anything]Alive with the Glory of Love[/track] reins supreme, though.

46. Is there a song by 9 that makes you happy? (Imogen Heap)
[track artist=Imogen Heap]Earth[/track] is really nice. [track artist=Imogen Heap]Loose Ends[/track] puts a smile on my face, too.
All of her music makes me happy. Not in the music-is-joyful way, either. Listening to it makes me feel happy.

Tough tie between A Rush of Blood to the Head and X&Y.

48. Who is a favorite member of 37? (PlayRadioPlay)

Two. She Hangs Brightly and So Tonight That I Might See

I'll do another in 6 months. Yay(:

Some of the track BBcode isn't showing up in the preview, and it's making me nervous. Lol. Yay.
