Very cool! I remember someone made an audio post that was pretty similiar to this, mashing up all the repeated lyrics. Back on ldr.fm. It would be cool to reprise that since so much has leaked since then and we've been exposed to even more idiosyncrasies.

Drive/Driving fast:

 

American - "Drive fast, I can almost taste it now"

Burning Desire - "I drive fast, wind in my hair..." Lots of driving references in that one.

Ride - "I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast.."

Afraid - "Driving in your fast car looking at the stars above.."

Driving in Cars with Boys

 

American flags

 

Boarding School - "With American flags on each little finger.."

Cola - "I fall asleep in an American flag"

 

Americana references are probably for another thread.. :agree:


Sweeping scents and blue hydrangea. Summer hail and summer stranger.

Ah I always wanted to do this but never had the time! I love her repetitiveness  :flutter: there's also Axl Rose Husband/White Pontiac Heaven for Daddy ("You're my one King Daddy/ I said daddy I need you") and Methamphetamines for Coney Island ("Why don't we go/ to Coney Island?" ) . Ohh and Moije Joue for Pool ("I'm your vulgar darling in the swimming pool"). I love how she always glimmers around swimming pools. I'll try to think of more  :brows:
