There's this really great pop song I've heard a couple of times recently. I think it's a new song but it's not in the top songs on iTunes, so it may not be very popular.

It's got a really fun sound, can't describe it, it's not particularly like r&b or dance music or rock, it's more pure pop, almost 80s-ish.

The repeating lyric goes: "I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it" 'bahhh bah' (cool instrumental bit). Male singer. It's not Sneaky Sound System or Hilltop Hoods. I just can't find it anywhere though.

I am in Australia.

Any ideas? Would really appreciate it, as I must buy this song. ^_^

I remember watching this movie about 10-15 years ago. A woman gets pregnant with her boyfriends/husbands baby and he's very abusive. I believe he keeps her locked up so she can't leave so she devises and plan to escape. Basically she pretends to be miscarrying by cutting the inside of her thigh to make it look like she's bleeding and when the male leaves to get a doctor she escapes out of the bathroom window.

Later her husband takes her to court to try to get custody and it turns into this big court case and there are a bunch of people protesting for him to win.

that's all I remember, anyone know?

This is a video I remember they used to play on Bravo Videos a lot, but I only remember the video. It was a girl -- I think blonde with fairy-like look -- sitting at a piano in a dark room while the back of it opened up and a kind of machine with robotic arms crept out like a blossoming plant or something. Anybody?

My parents are landscaping their backyard and found a local tree nearby that they like and would like to have in their yard, but don't know the name of. They took a picture of the tree itself and a close up of its leaves. Anyone know?



(We're in southern California, for reference)

EDIT: I'm fairly sure it's a Pacific Willow/Yellow Willow (Salix lasiandra)

I know I've seen the movie this GIF is from, but I cannot for the life of me remember which movie it is.
Help would be greatly appreciated!

What's the first song in that trailer? (approximately the first 30 seconds or so of the video).

When I was a kid, I read a scary story about a brother and sister playing near a culvert, and some kind of tar blob monster killed the sister, and he went back later as an adult to kill it? The boy's name was possibly Bruce or Bill. That's all I can remember, sorry!

So someone mentioned The Lottery to me, and it reminded me of another SS with very similar themes -

Someone wakes up and their family is all excited because it's their 'turn' (or their day, or something) and they get all dressed up and go to this government building. I feel like the narrator doesn't really know what's going on, though and starts getting upset. There's a growing sense of unease and it turns out that it's a form of population control (again, or something!) and they are basically incinerated.

I've tried googling bunches of keywords to no avail.

ETA: And it just occurred to me that maybe there's something about a drain, or plughole? In the center of the room where blood runs down (ew).

ETA 2: Found! A creepypasta called 'Button Day'. Thanks [info]tabbyclaw

I was listening to Pandora this morning in the shower, and this one song came on. It was awesome, but I didn't want to get out and risk soaking my ipod in order to figure out what it was. I should have. I'm hoping someone else knows? (I don't remember enough lyrics with enough confidence to Google 'em--this was pre-coffee!)

Here's what I know:
-It was on "Fun." Pandora station

-The singer was a male. He sounded a bit like Matt Nathanson, or maybe Mat Kerney.
--It's not "Faster" or "To the Beat of Our Noisy Hearts"
--This makes me think that maybe it was neither of those men listed above after all?

-The song started out with a really upbeat, almost poppy melody.
-The lyrics were something you'd expect, talking about happy love or something.
-Then they got sadder. I think there was something about "when you go, all the colors go with you", but apparently that's not the exact lyric because it turns up nothing on the Goog.
-At some point, the singer starts singing about hearts breaking or something.

Please, can someone help me? I want to listen to it again but I caaaaaaan't. *whine*

What was that movie that was going to be released in late 2012 or 2013, and was going to be about the whole 'garden of eden' stuff?
