Bon Jovi... I guess it's his husky voice that gets to me. I have an affinity for guys who sings like they just swallowed a frog. Ryan Adams... Tyler Hilton... Matthew Ryan. *sigh*
By the way? Matthew Ryan? Is like a modern poet.

Hmm? Well I don't read much poetry - although if I did, my fave poet would be this guy called Chuck Bukowski.
He writes these cynical poems about everyday things - getting drunk, living in an apartment building next to druggies, betting on horse races, those people at the checkout who always ask how you're going, etc.
He's pretty good.

I've never heard of him either, but that might be the only type of poetry I'd like. Not really a big fan...

Yeah...I know what you mean. I used to write loads of peotry when I was in years 5 - 7 at school, but hardly ever now. I've lost my poetry mojo, I think.
Ah well. At least I still make killer icons.

Yes, you do!
I was never good at poetry and I dont really like reading it, unless it's by Poe. Mostly I write stories (often short) and make wallpapers and videos...and draw! Drawing is like one of the only skills I'm really confident in...

I like drawing but I suck at it. I like writing, but only half my stuff is good and the other half is completely OOC. Videos are fun but I can't put mine on youtube. Plus I have to film the clips I use on my video camera while the movie's running, then put them on the computer itself. Tedious maximus.

That's why I try to avoid playing main characters with a really set personality because I go so OOC...or at least it feels like I do...
I used to have to do that, but then I found magical downloading sites and downloaded all the clips I needed. I cant wait until I get my laptop so I can burn movies to it and not have to download them anymore!

I'm a poet and I've been writing since I was really young. So I guess may be more biased to singers/songwriters like Matthew Ryan.
This is one of his song lyrics:
It's not the things that I can't change, that bother me
It's not the things that I don't know, that undermine me
It's not the thing that I can't hold or the balancing wire that broke, that throws me
It's not the fact that you walked out, that bewilders me
It's not the sleep that I can't steal, that wires me
It's not the coffee or the pills it's not this space that I can't fill that kills me
Well in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome
It's been bent 'til it was twisted
And in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome
It's been burned, but it's still willing to try
And shine
It's not the drunks and their devices, that provoke me
It's not the politics of love and distance, and all that that shit evokes in me
I'ts not the Sunday morning fights or this soul on ice, that numbs me
It's not the passing of another Indian summer, that saddens me
It's no the shutter in the undertow, that bears down on me
I'ts not everything ending as it begins or the loneliness that grins that destroys me
Well in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome
It's been bent 'til it was twisted
And in case you didn't know I've got a heart made of chrome
It's been burned, but it's still willing to try
And shine

What magical downloading sites would those be, Sasha?
