Beyond Birthday

Heheh. Don't get me started on books. Hunger games- Most people know Percy Jackson- Pretty well known too, mentioned already Sherlock Holmes- Words do not describe how awesome this series is, particularly for the mystery sort of lover although I guess because of it's age, it's often overlooked from younger people Lots of Agatha Cristie's books- ^Same as above Harry Potter- The Giver trilogy- Really interesting dystopia of sorts, which is my favorite book type of sorts. It is about a world where people have converted to sameness. Look it up in Wikipedia because I'm too lazy right now. Very unique. Divergent- Kind of similar to the Hunger Games BB: Los Angeles murder cases- sort of a branch of death note but it's a novel Flowers for Algernon- I feel as if not many people would like this one but it's about a mentally challenged person (Mentioned in the book to have an IQ of 70) having a dream to become smart, he eventually agrees to a experiment that involves brain surgery. It's written as a diary sort of and it's really interesting how it shows the gradual increase of intelligence, and the realizations of the main character as they change from (pardon not being politically correct) retardation to genius. Unfortunately, due to draw backs,it turns out that it was only temporary and the main character soon returns to how he was in the beginning. Oh, it is a sad ending but so good.

So, you're surfing the web, looking at songs in different languages and you find a song that sounds good. "Oh hey," you go. "I like this song," you say. So, wanting to know more about it, you look up the song's lyrics. To your regret. Great regret. Some things are better off not known. Traumatized and as an attempt to cleanse your mind of the horrors, you flee to something juvenile to regain your innocence. But it's in there. Burned into your mind. *Cough cough* Okay, that may have been obnoxious, excessive and unnessicary but I couldn't help it. So, what about you guys, are you permanently scarred by a song's lyrics? I think the paragraph above sums up my experience with the song below. The following song turned out to be extremely groutesque with many -erm- sexual mentions and even talks of cannibalism. I'm only giving the titles so you have to go and search for it yourself if you really must hear it. To be watched at your discretion. -The Fox's Wedding. (Mind you, I was not paying attention to the video's imagery, I was reading something online and had it open in a separate tab. I initially enjoyed it for its beat and originallity) Does anyone here know of songs with lyrics as disturbing and/or has had a similar experience?

I don't think Death note is too hidden but there is another short novel about the Los Angeles: BB Murder Cases, although, it's not a manga, but not many know about it. Pandora Hearts is fabulous and Rozen Maiden is pretty interesting.

Happy Birthday desu~!
