Stop and stare by one republic

thiura22 — 18 years ago(May 20, 2007 01:26 AM)

1. Pinball Wizard - The Who
2. Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys
3. Live And Let Die - Paul McCartney
4. Otherside - Red Hot Chili Peppers
5. Jesus Ranch - Tenacious D
   And, as an added bonus, I would have MIMS perform This Is Why I'm Hot, but I would have "Hot" replaced with "Rot" and he would say "I rot cause I'm dead, you don't cuz you not" OR, if I got shot dead, he would say "I rot cuz I'm dead, in the head, I got shot"

I heart your choices. Your funeral seems like it would be fun. I mean that in a good way.
