Ones that define us (which sometimes are what we like).

Its funny how many of these songs I have never heard.

Yep, I think that's the arm of Brother Theo as he plays chess and states that line :)

I'm the dork that just thought "Passing through Gethsemane" and double checked to see that was the episode title. ;) I loved the episode where Brother Theo has all the other religious leaders on the station, "Please tell me it will be a quiet dignified service..." "Come Theo, we must MAKE A JOYFUL NOISE!" "Your singing is not a joyful noise..."

"Mood Rings" by Relient K. End of story.

[color="blue"]We all know the girls that i am talking about
Well they are time bombs and they are ticking
And the only question's when they'll blow up
And they'll blow up
We know that without a doubt
Cause they're those girls,
Yeah, you know those girls that let their emotions get the best of them

And i've contrived some sort of a plan to help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking, just what they're thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so happy its depressing
And all I said was someone get that girl a mood ring

If its drama you want then look no further
They're like "The Real World"
meets "Boy Meets World"
meets "Days of Our Lives"
And it just kills me how they get away with murder
They'll anger you then bat their eyes
Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize

And i've contrived some sort of a plan to help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're thinking, just what they're thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so stressed out that it's soothing
And all I said was someone get that girl a mood ring

Cause when it's black it means watch you back because you're probably
the last person in the world right now she wants to see
and when it's blue it means that you should call her up immediately
and ask her out because she'll most likely agree
and when it's green, it simply means that she is really stressed
and when it's clear, it means she's completely emotionless
(and that's alright, i must confess)

We all know the girls that I am talking about
She liked you wednesday, but now it's friday and she has to wash her hair
and it just figures that we'll never figure them out
first she's Jekyll, then she's Hyde... at least she makes a lovely pair

mood ring, oh, mood ring
oh, tell me, will you bring
the key to unlock this mystery
of girls and their emotions
play it back in slow motion
so i may understand the complex infrastructure known as the female mind[/color]

Hmmm... lets try to encompase a very complex and intricate mind/soul by the very limited body of mere five songs...

C-Minor by mewithoutYou
Best line of all time "I've been technically a virgin for over 27 years, which that's never bothered me before... so whats maybe 50 more."

A Beautiful Collision by David Crowder Band
Sums of the Mass/Eucharist for me

Session by Linkin Park
Strange that an instrumental makes it on the list. I don't know what about this song, makes it work...

Memphis Will Be Laid to Waste by Norma Jean
This tries to encompass why I like hardcore/metal so much. The pure rage direct towards the passion that I have somewhere in me. The line "Christ is not a fashion, fleeting away" seals the deal for me.

I think "Surprise" by Jars of Clay will be my ender. Nice, somewhat melancholy but hopeful.

Honorable mentions:
"Colony of Birchmen" by Mastodon
"Sad Clown" by Jars of Clay
"Anti-Christ Television Blues" by Arcade Fire

It has just occurred to me that in order to be a good lil' Phatmasser and back up my thread I am going to have to spend a fortune on ITunes on a ton of songs I've never heard made by bands I had no idea existed just to get to know my "Phat Phriends" better.

Hahahahahahahahahaha..........
