Lyric Bits that Make Me Think of VK
Okay, totally pointless little post but on my drive home today I heard a new song by the Foo Fighters (no, don't ask me what they were thinking when they named their band, I have always wondered... XD) and the opening lyrics made me stop and do a double take because they made me think so much of some angsty Vampire Knight situation. The rest of the song, not so much, but the opening lines...
Heart of gold but it lost its pride
Beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes
I've seen your face in another light
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
In too deep and out of time.
Why'd you have to go and let it die?
~"Let It Die" by the Foo Fighters
I think it was probably the reference to "beautiful veins and bloodshot eyes" that cinched the mental reference for me. I mean... beautiful veins? Totally makes me think vampires, and although I know what they mean by bloodshot eyes... I can take that to mean something entirely else if I want to... *thinks of pretty red vamp eyes*
Don't have a specific situation in mind, but like I said, it just made me think of angsty vampires. LOL yes, I am a total dork.
Oh, while I'm displaying my dorkiness, here's part of another song by Death Cab for Cutie (who must have named their band under the same influence as the Foo Fighters) where a couple of the lines instantly screamed vampire at me when I heard it:
Wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that I was telling
And all the playful misspellings
And every bite I gave you left a mark
Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn't want to fade
But they did and so did I that day...
"Tiny Vessels" by Death Cab for Cutie
Wow, okay, I will stop displaying my Vampire Knight addiction now. Hmm... wonder if they have a VK Anonymous?
Hello, my name's Vani. It's been... *glances at watch* about thirty seconds since I thought of anything realted to Vampire Knight...
LOL XD

ROTFL!!! You are totally right about the lyrics of those two songs.
*moseys into meeting & perches next to Vani* Hi, name's Yen. Well, I'm proud to say that it's been at least 6 hours since I last thought of anything related to VK... Oh, dreaming of them is included? OK, an hour then... oh day dreaming is included too? *grumbles* Ten seconds...

Ah, actually I'd love to as well, but I'm afraid I lied at our Anonymous meeting just now... shh! *looks around & stares accusingly at nearby potted plant that rustles suspiciously* But daydreaming about them? Definitely! *grins unrepentantly at said plant*

If there is VK anonymous, I need to attend the meetings. *lol* XD
It's gotten to the point where I fear my livejournal friendlist will defriend me because I post too much VK constantly. XD;;; *eyes the amount of posts she's spammed them with and is afraid* XD;;
I did actually dream of VK last night, btw. XD XD XD
As for during the day, it's, uhm, absolutely constant. XD;;; *was drawing Rido x Kaname* XD;;;
*happily goes to search for those songs on youtube* X3

YenGirl: LOL *eyes plant* well that's it, we need to figure out where to petition for more actual VK dreams... *nods vigerously*
It's certainly not for lack of falling asleep thinking about them... :D *wishes you could order dreams* But that's okay... definitely have our daydreams. ;D
Sagakure: LOL I hear ya... fortunately, I set my blog up expressly to do nothing but ramble about VK *giggles* or at least, that's what it quickly became... XD But all my RL friends are certainly sick of hearing about it.
Actual dreams?! No fair! *pouts but is quickly distracted by the notion of a Rido x Kaname pic* ooo... somehow I smell angst... :D *grins eagerly*

*raises hands in surrender* I lied, I lied! At the VK Anonymous meeting just now! *steps away from still rustling plant*
I wish I could dream about what I wanna dream about *makes note to Google just in case such a method or gizmo is actually available for VK junkies like us*

Oh goodness, is there a time when thinking about VK is a bad thing? *glances around and gets some awkward stares* Okay, so maybe that's not the right question to ask. Still, can we help it that something so awesome is ingrained in our brains.
*stares wistfully out the window* Ahhh, dreaming of VK. If only my dreams bowed down to my wishes. Gotta admit though that sometimes I do have dreams of stuff I think about non-stop, so maybe one day I'll be lucky. ^.^
Day dreaming, oh, pfft, always! *smirks*
And just to get you all going some more... english translation of chapter 41 is done. *pushes them all into that general direction* Pour more VK goodness into your brains.
Oh and guess what Vani, ya know how you thought that scythe of Yuuki's looked so very familiar to a pic of Kaname and Zero you used before? Well, I did a throuough comparison and sure enough, it actually is that same weapon! It makes me wonder too, since Kaname was holding it. *stares out into space*
Anyway! Go read, all of you! *for once shivers at sight of Kaien getting all manners of Vampire-Hunter-Serious* Totally didn't recognize that as him at first. That's what happens when you don't read the summary. Heheh.
But anyway, randomly back on this topic, I know I've come across some good songs that fit well with VK. I intend to do an AMV later on with one of them, perhaps once the series is over. *thus why she is hording all the RAWs of the episodes*
Speaking of! Hey Vani, have you been able to get some of the last few episode RAWs? If not, I know where ya can and stuff, so yeah, just let me know. ^.^

No, it's definitely not a bad thing... ;) Because my bosses' opinion doesn't matter. Mwahahah. XD
Yay! Scanlation!!
Yes! I thought it was the same scythe as that other pic. It is rather interesting that Kaname was holding it in that one.
Cool! You must let me know when you make those amvs! :) And yes, if you know where to find the raws of the recent episodes, that would be awesome. I haven't been able to find any raws since like, episode 7 or so.
