Voice Meme!

[livejournal.com profile] gothikmaus started this madness, and now I'm blaming her for it. You all should, too. ;P



I want to hear you talk!

You see, what I want you to do is:

1) Think of a quote you've particularly liked, and find it

2) Pick up the book/file in question

3) Read it aloud, recording your voice in the meanwhile

4) And then, of course, post it all on lj.






"Whooo-eee," said Crowley. "Where have you been?"
Good Omens, page 335.


(if you haven't read the book but intend to, don't listen to it. It could very likely spoil the fun.)





The complete quote behind lj-cut, because it could spoil the fun for those who haven't read the book. I did the whole page, because.. well, the single line on its own wouldn't have made much sense. But that was one of things that had me almost laughing the most. Oh, yes.

Also, I've still got the cold, so don't expect it to be who knows what. (not that the without-cold-me is that better... but if I have a plausible excuse, I use it. ;P) I could have waited, but I didn't really want to. :D The idea sounded like too much fun. (And it was!)



"Excuse me," said the angel.

The trio looked at him.

"This Great Plan," he said, "this would be the ineffable Plan, would it?"

There was a moment's silence.

"It's the Great Plan," said the Metatron flatly. "You are well aware. There shall be a world lasting six thousand years and it will conclude with-"

"Yes, yes, that's the Great Plan all right," said Aziraphale. He spoke politely and respectfully, but with the air of one who has just asked an unwelcome question at a political meeting and won't go away until he gets an answer. "I was just asking if it's ineffable as well. I just want to be clear on this point."

"It doesn't matter!" snapped the Metatron. "It's the same thing, surely!"

Surely? thought Crowley. They don't actually know. He started to grin like an idiot.

"So you're not one hundred percent clear on this?" said Aziraphale.

"It's not given to us to understand the ineffable Plan," said the Metatron, "but of course the Great Plan-"

"But the Great Plan can only be a tiny part of the overall ineffability," said Crowley. "You can't be certain that what's happening right now isn't exactly right, from an ineffable point of view."

"It izz written!" bellowed Beelzebub.

"But it might be written differently somewhere else," said Crowley.

"Where you can't read it."

"In bigger letters," said Aziraphale.

"Underlined," Crowley added.

"Twice," suggested Aziraphale.

"Perhaps this isn't just a test of the world," said Crowley. "It might be a test of you people, too. Hmm?"

"God does not play games with His loyal servants," said the Metatron, but in a worried tone of voice.

"Whooo-eee," said Crowley. "Where have you been?"

XDDD

Hehehe! That was the third time I tried, that's surely part of the why. XD In the first I think I started chuckling halfway through the last line... XD

How you got any means to record yourself? If you have... well, don't think I'll let you off the hook too easily. ;D

I dare you to find a bad passage in that book! :D

A week spent somewhere you can only speak English to be understood does wonders, that's the only reason. ;D


Awwwwwwwwwww, I still want to hear your voice! Please? Pwetty pwetty please? MiniBruni is begging you! The fact that you can't read English - of which I have no proof ;P - isn't good as excuse, then just read a passage from a Spanish book :D or say whatever you like. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease? Image

It is! Sadly, I'd never be able to make anything as good as that -or this one- myself *weeps*

[livejournal.com profile] kithfan21 made them. She rocks for making fabulous icons and being a Kids In the Hall fan :)

BARBARA! I FOUND MARS! :D :D :D I'd put in the wrong case :P Now I have to find out where Escaflowne OST has gone...

Re: XDDD

[identity profile] monophobia.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
OH YAY MARS!!!!!! (Which Escaflowne OST? I have the second one, and love it to pieces. I WANT TO HAVE YOKO KANNO'S REALLY TALENTED BABIES!)

Re: XDDD

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-11 08:48 am (UTC)(link)
YOKO KANNO! I adore Yoko Kanno!! :D :D :D

Look, I was listening to Mars in the bathroom this morning - don't ask :P - and at the track number 4 I couldn't stop smiling/laughing/mouthing it. At the third reaction, I realized I have to learn the lyrics so I can shout sing it aloud. :D :D :D

(Don't know which one it is... the first one, I think. It has [insert name of the femal protagonist here] on the cover, though. :P)

*glomps*

Excellent choice! I've only recently read that book and I'm very much in love with those two. ^__^

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
Be', ma non sono eccezionali? :D Ti giuro, ho letto quel libro non so quante volte. XD






...hai la possibilità di registrarti?

[identity profile] alphatauri3791.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Io l'ho letto una sola volta, un paio di settimane fa, e l'ho trovato fantastico. Quei due sono veramente straordinari, non riuscivo a smettere di ridere. A dire il vero è stato un po' imbarazzante... l'ho letto in due tranche, sull'euro star per e da Roma, io che cercavo di soffocare le risate e la gente intorno che mi guardava di traverso.

No, purtroppo non ho la possibilità di registrare... e, a quanto pare, neppure di ascoltare.

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahahaha! Sarei voluta esserci :D :D :D



Adesso l'ho messo su ysi, spero non dia piu' problemi :)

[identity profile] mrsronweasley.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
Waaaaaaaah, how do I get to it? It doesn't seem to be working. :(

MWAAAAAAAAAH!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 11:34 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm. Have you tried downloading it directly on the pc and then playing it? I can't try that here, so to be sure if it works - I'm not too keen on ten other people I don't know hearing that thing. ;P (not that with ten people I know would be better, but still.)

Good morning, sweetie! :D






You realized I want you to do that as well, don't you?

Morning, you!

[identity profile] mrsronweasley.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I will do what I can when I get home. I must hear The Bruni! The sad thing is, the site is all in Italian, and this is me, trying to work it out:

O.o

But I will persevere!

You realized I want you to do that as well, don't you?
I had a hunch, aye. >.< I will do a phone post whenever I'm next to a book. :P


MWAAAAAAAH!

Re: Morning, you!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 02:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I uploaded it on ysi :D I didn't have time enough to do that before, otherwise I would have ;)


You mean I didn't use much subtlety? ;P Yay for Liz! :D :D :D

Re: Morning, you!

[identity profile] mrsronweasley.livejournal.com 2005-10-04 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait, ysi?! How come it's coming up with some weird Italian site? Waaaaaaaaah! I'm doubly confused now.

You mean I didn't use much subtlety? ;P Yay for Liz! :D :D :D

You're too adorable for WORDS. Also, 'yay for Liz!' is something Sam says quite a bit, so I can't help but hear that in his voice, and it's a weird mind-gave type thing. XD

Re: Morning, you!

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
Hehehe! :D No, first I had put it on that weird italian site, and when I saw it was giving problems I uploaded it on ysi. :D


Naaaah, really? Sam says that too? :D And in your mind what does that look like, Sam with a tail? Or a monkey with a beard? XD (Sam has a beard, right..?)

MWAH!

OMG!!

[identity profile] mrsronweasley.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
YOU'RE ADORABLE!! SO ADORABLE!! Oh my God, you are SO! ADORABLE! Can I make copies of you and put you on my desk at work, to make me smile whenever it gets lonely? You are so wonderful!

And tonight is when I WILL transcribe the damn interview for you! :D

*laughs* Dearie, you're out of your mind. ;D Oh, do whatever you like with it, as long as I don't know, so I can't get embarrassed about it. ;P

LOVE!

YEEEEEEEEAH! Good Omens, YAY! Oh, I couldn't resist and I posted another quote.

Eventually Crawly said, "Didn't you have a flaming sword?"

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 11:54 am (UTC)(link)
Aaaah, sono giorni che cerco di sentirlo e non mi riesce!!! :( O non posso proprio, o sono in posti dove non posso regolare l'audio. *sospiro* Adesso che ci penso, è davvero molto basso... per la citazione dall'italiano avresti modo di alzarlo un po'?

Cmq, Davvero complimenti per la scelta, è un pezzo che mi è piaciuto un sacco :D :D :D

[identity profile] gothikmaus.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 11:59 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, cacchio, mi dispiace. Sul mio computer si sente bene, vedrò di migliorare le prestazioni per le prossime citazioni. (Che bello parlare in rima... :P)

I can't imagine..... :D
Man, you have such a lovely voice and your accent is adorable.

How's your day?

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Come on, go and record yourself, woman. :D (...why did that sound like an insult?) I'm curious!

Not that I usually am not, but. You know.

Eeeeeee! :D

Oh, everything's terrific. :D (In a good way, I mean! :P)

Kasche, get online on some messenger, I have something for you.

[identity profile] kasche.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm sorry, I wasn't online at all! I saw your comment only this morning. And now I'm curious! :D
