I'd Have All the Money in the World If I Was a Wealthy Girl

I'm going to record my very first voice post soon. I suppose this means most of you will, for the first time, hear what I sound like. Anything in particular you'd like to hear me say? Or maybe I should sing a song? Or just heavy breathe down the line? Or curse to hell and back? I'm open to suggestions at this stage since I'm otherwise very likely to just mumble, stutter and talk gibberish.

The EuroMillions lotto numbers will be announced in less than two hours. Since buying my ticket two days ago I've been walking around as if I'd already won the moula. I've decided against buying a tower block (don't want to deal with the incessant LJ Drama) or the island (though apparently I'd have enough to buy something in Fiji.) I was reading a commie newspaper today and really felt like giving 99% of the money to asylum seekers, the homeless, charities, friends & family, etc. I could so easily live on a million pounds. Honestly, all I want is to go back to uni and study something just for pleasure (like film, for example) without the worry of finding a job related to the degree afterwards.

Apparently, though, there's more chance of George Bush Jr marrying Amy Whinehouse tonight then there is of me winning the money. So I'll just eat some leftover chocolate cake and enjoy my Friday in front of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

Where did you get your copy of baby jane? i have always wanted to see that.

Also, I think you should try this:

I just noticed neuroticfish did a version as well with what sounds like the doctor who theme tune over it...:)

I'll see if I can convince Kevin to play the guitar along with me as I sing. ;-)

I got the video through Sofa Cinema, which is one of those DVD rental systems where they mail the film to you and then you mail it back to them once you are done. It's a pretty good deal actually - 9.99 a month for six films. They have a decent back catalogue so Kevin and I have been renting all the old classics we never saw before.

i would like a show tune.

and oh my god, gw and amy winehouse. tom and katie would NEVER get press if that happened.

If Tom and Katie started spinning their heads like that little girl in the Exorcist, I'd so buy the magazine with the photos.

Your first voice post should be all about ME: the five best things about me, what made you fall in love with me, our wedding plans, what we will name our children and so on.

Dear lord... I don't have enough money for that kind of long phone call!

You have chocolate cake? I want chocolate cake!

Say anything you like, I've heard it all before. *guffaws*

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 09:28 am (UTC)(link)
Go get you some choco cake!

[identity profile] desayuno-ingles.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 11:37 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, I decided that since I was having steak and potatoes (and corn on the cob!) I wouldn't really miss the chocolate cake. And I was right.

Ooh, I kind of like the iea of you swearing, creatively and in the very filthiest terms you can muster.
Mind you, I am _quite_ drunk, nd should probably be ignored.

Anyway, did you win? Or did I? One of us has to have won, surely?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so mad at God right now! I didn't win! I didn't even get one number right!

I would love to hear you sing "Happy Birthday, Mr President" in the style of Marilyn Monroe. Or Marilyn Manson. Depends on your mood.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
When's George Bush's birthday? I'll sing it then.

Aw, you missed it. It was July 6th. :(

I do think you should consider inhaling helium prior to making your recording...and then reciting Monty Python's "Spam" lyrics...

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
You know, I actually thought of the helium bit this morning in bed! Not sure about the Monty Python song though... :-)

Even in your presence you haven't said much. Next time I see you I demand that you declaim something.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
That's because I'm busy giggling at what you say. :-)

I get tongue-tied in crowds, unless I'm given plenty to drink.

They won't sound Canadian!

[identity profile] desayuno-ingles.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 11:39 am (UTC)(link)
You'd need the actor who plays Kevin to sort of run in periodically and shout them over his shoulder for that.

I <3 the Canadian accent, I don't know why...

haha! I have a bit of an accent that a lot of people think is Canadian becuase I lived in Minneapolis for a while. And get me around Canadians and it's all over. I sound like I was born and raised in the GWN.

oh please yes sing something to us!
common people maybe?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2008-09-28 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
That's a very long song... maybe a shorter one?

[identity profile] suede.livejournal.com 2008-09-28 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
maybe a line or two...?

or you can say

she walks in beauty like the night

and you will make happy all byron fans and also suede ones :D
