MixTape Draft - 6+ word titles. Finish your draft and listen to mixes! (2 Viewers)

I had surgery back in October, first thing in the morning so I was one of the first out of surgery.  I started coming-to in the recovery room, looked over in my haze and there's a dude on the bed next to me too with like 7 different nurses scattered around the room.  Whatever.  I'm groggy, sitting there, nurses checking on me, and dude next to me starts like freaking out and trying to break out of his bed.  They pull the curtain closed so I can't see him but he's flipping out, screaming, they're trying to hold him down and whatnot.

A handful of nurses convene, must have been the in-charge ones, and the one goes "get him out of here <pointing at me>".  Nurse comes over to me and says "normally we would keep you in this post-anesthesia room for another half hour, but we need to get you out of here immediately because we need all hands on deck for him", and they wheel me out of there.  He kept shrieking and screaming, they had to call his surgeon into the room to try to calm him down and ####.  It was terrifying.

At least that's what I think happened.  Never can tell after the anesthesia.
I think I tried to get you to come to a concert in Toronto around this time... Arkells at Massey Hall?

13th round - Calvin Harris feat. Rihanna - "This is What You Came For"

1.4 billion (!) Youtube views, and I like to take every opportunity available to pick Rihanna songs.  Don't hate.
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:  So, I assumed this was the other Calvin Harris and Rihanna song and had fully typed out, "What are your thoughts on "This is What You Came For"... I actually really really like this song, even if I do know it mostly from hockey arenas.

 
For some reason I am stuck trying to find songs with 11 word titles; I've only been able to find one. So I will skip it for now and will keep looking. (I am trying to get 2 each of lengths 6 to 14 words, with two extra.)

14.04 - Elton John - Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be A Long Long Time) - 1972 - 12 Words
Didn't know this had a parenthetical title. Kinda feel like you're just making it up. It's just Rocket Man.  ROCKET MAN!!!  Burnin' up his fuse out there alone...
First line from Wikipedia about Rocket Man...
 

"Rocket Man" (officially titled as Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)), is a song composed by Elton John and Bernie Taupin and originally performed by John.

After all the research for this thing, it got me wondering - have we ever done a draft with "One Word Song Titles"?  Could see someone possibly using it as a theme.

@Eephus had a great idea with the spinner/dominos style draft.
Yeah, I did a super :nerd: one that was Alphabet/One Word titles.  You could draft in any order, but your mix had to be in alphabetical order. 

 
It's kind of a shame that When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing 'fore He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might so When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You'll Know That You're Right  doesn't have any songs with more than six words.

 
12.03 - Offspring, Pretty Fly (for a White Guy) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtTR-_Klcq8

This was my fantasy football team name that year. 
Totally missed this being drafted at the time. The Offspring are definitely a huge part of my preteen years. Played the #### out of Smash and took it last draft. This album isn't quite up to those "standards" but I to this day love "The Kids Aren't Alright" and this one...

 
Dude.  You deserve a medal.  Status post the double endoscopy, upstairs and down, and still posting late into the evening.  Definition of hard core.  :cheers:
My throat hurts a bit, full disclosure.  I'm also regretting those Doritos I sampled earlier.

Three weeks till the biopsy results are back, but doc said everything looked great.  Even my Barrets may be going or gone.  I forget exactly, was pretty high.

I want to make my morning pick now.  Nobody probably knows it and I want to share.

I haven't been checking if my selections are on spotify... I don't mind changing my pick though.
I wouldn't change your pick, more of just an FYI for the spotify mix. Taylor Swift isn't on Spotify but that wouldn't stop me from taking I Knew You Were Trouble if there were a parenthetical (when you walked in).

You've met me and know my taste in music, of course I love this ####ty song.

 
#1 question, is Guinness ok 24 hours after endo/colon?
Of course. 

I'm hosting a St. Patrick's party tomorrow night, so if I post in here it will be very late and completely incoherent.

I bought 5 albums today (used) for the occasion to show off my new turntable setup:

  • The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy & the Lash (I actually know this one)
  • The Chieftans - 7
  • The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Makem - Irish Drinking Songs
  • K-Tel Presents The Irish Rovers Special - 20 of their Greatest Hits
  • The Dubliners - More of the Hard Stuff
I spent like $60. I have no idea why my wife puts up with me :oldunsure:

One more thing I just thought of.  I knew the pretty divorced nurse who assisted the Dr. on my procedure.   It's gonna be slightly awkward  (or not?) when I see her at the field with her kid and ask her what hand she had up my #$&.  ? 

 
Of course.

One of my soccer moms has a yearly party. It's usually pretty sloppy and is indoor and out.  This year we will be inside with the snow.

   I missed the last party so she's VERY exited I'm coming.  It's pretty funny how she openly flirts with me in front of both her husband and my wife.  

Anyway she got a keg of Guinness and has corned beef paninni's so I'm set.  I will also be drunk posting here tomorrow night if my wife lets me in the door (she will leave early I bet).

The last couple parties we've hosted at my house, my wife has gone to bed earlier than me (like 12 or 1) and then I've proceeded to keep drinking and pass out and she's had to get back up and see people out. Last time was at our Christmas party and I have photos and texts proving I was awake and functioning at 3:30 AM... but people couldn't get cabs and parties rage on and I eventually fell victim to a pass out and she saw everyone out. I feel like I deserve a pass for making it to 3:30 while drinking heavily all night.

In any case, tomorrow I'm drinking a local equivalent of Guinness and assuming the lower alcohol, smaller can, will mean I'm fine... plus, I'm sure it won't go past 3 AM again  :unsure:
