it is a clever lil thing that does work. i was scared and freaked out at first but i need the reward. ~:cheers: ~:cheers: try it you wont regret ( no this isnt pop up add or nothing like that.)

[Beirut]

Not sure I buy it. But it is interesting. ~:)

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

Apparently the song that most describes my life is 'Pinball Wizard"

Erm...yes...

[scooter_the_shooter]

alot of it worked for me you have to use the first thing that pops into your head sorry over the fuss. got a lil superstiotous at first and whent mad trying to get my wish LOL :dizzy2: probably just a little math trinket of some sort

[Psyco]

So apparently the song that most describes the person I "love" is "Du Hast" (it means I Hate, in German).

it is a clever lil thing that does work.Rrright... and you have to mail or post it within the hour, that is: before it turns out your wish doesn't come true. This looks like a job for Solypsist, explaining the Barnum effect and things... :book: :scholar: :glasses2:

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Nice. The first 4 were right. The next 7 were laughably wrong though, but it was fairly impressive none the less.

Human minds are a little funny, I think if you ask people to randomly pick a number between 1 and 5 50% of the time they will choose 3...or something like that.

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Wow, almost dead on.
Wow. I hope I get my ring back.

[JAG]

Of course the whole wish business is complete rubbish and it is more guess work than science, but whoever wrote it, did a pretty good job.

Apparently the song which most describes my mind is 'under pressure' - not so bad.

And for my life - Jesus of surburbia - was listening to it at the time - that is a bit err...

couple things it was also right on, but I fail to see how it would always be so. Good fun though.

[TheSilverKnight]

Apparently the song that describes the relationship I have with a person I like is Joaquin Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez" (hey, I'm a fan of Classical Music ~;) ), which is pretty suiting, since the girl I like is Spanish ~:cheers:

[Adrian II]

OK, if Solypsist declines I'll ask the question: who's a sucker (http://atheism.about.com/od/criticalthinking/a/barnum.htm)?

[SwordsMaster]

Freaky, ok but somewhat explainable. Do you want me to try and explain it?
Tell me if you do.

So, the song that tells more about me is Dylans "Things have changed" and the one about how do I see life is Metallica's "I disappear".....hmmm.... Curious to say the least....

Curious to say the least....Well, the Barnum effect (see my link above) works only when the description is vague and general. That applies to all songs, because the lyrics (or any part of them that you wish to isolate) can be interpreted as (a) being said by you, (b) being said about you, (c) being said by others about a third party that is important to you, (d) reflecting your general outlook on life, not on anything or anyone specific. The same goes for the persons whose names you fill into the form. Horoscopes draw huge crowds every day with this same principle. Goes to show that people don't need stars and planets to fool themselves, they can do it single-handed on a little scrap of paper.

Yea, I'm a party-pooper, I'll shut up now! ~:cool:

[Crazed Rabbit]

I doubt passing this along to 7 people will heal my toe (which is what I wished, as currently it is injured).

Interesting nonetheless...perhaps the internet fairy will come and heal my toe after I tell some people.

O--k. Some close some way off.

The song that tells me most about my mind - Time (pink floyd) This I'll accept
The song telling me how I feel about life - Corporal Clegg (pink floyd) Hmmm......another drop of gin.

[Beirut]

Ziu,

Corporal Clegg?

Yeah brother! ~:cheers:

[Togakure]

Lol ... didn't work much at all for me, but then these kinds of things almost never do.

[Magraev]

A chainletter in any other guise is still a chainletter - stupid!

That cat's something I can't explain!

[zelda12]

:eek
Thats frighteningly accurate.

Song that describes me best is Stairway to heaven.
The song that describes my outlook on life is God Save the Queen.:D The sex pistols version.

Sums it all up.

So apparently the song that most describes the person I "love" is "Du Hast" (it means I Hate, in German).


Ermm, no. what you mean would be Du hasst. "Du Hast" means "you have". It´s a song about marriage. It´s still strange that it should describe the person you love.
