"Weird skins"
7/29/2001

Just because I've never bothered using the random skin option on Winamp before now, I'm going to document what it brings up with each song on this particular playlist (warning: playlist file called 'cheerful' This is not a regularly used playlist). I'll color the skin/song in blue, and my comments in white. Granted, I don't have a lot of skins, and most are variations of Zel, but... well, we'll see.

311 - Come Original SKIN: Mystic Zel (fanart)
...strangely apropos (you'd have to see the skin)

Siouxsie and the Banshees - Kiss them for Me SKIN: Ken Hidaka (Weiß Kreuz)
I like this option already...

U2 - Elevation SKIN: Plain shot of Zelgadis on white bg (Slayers)
...nope, I don't see the connection here...

Clinic - Second Line SKIN: Zel in Drag (very red bg)
...I think it's on crack...

Madonna - Don't Tell Me SKIN: (see previous)
Makes a little more sense here, though.

Erasure - Respect SKIN: Zel casting a Ra Tilt
...I'd respect anybody getting ready to blast me like that.

Fat Boy Slim - Weapon of Choice SKIN: Manga Gourry blue (Slayers)
...whatever this thing is smoking, I don't want any.

Lenny Kravitz - If You Can't Say No SKIN: Bren Okiayu (original chara)
My winamp is a perve, I'm sure... ::cracks up:: If you knew Bren, you'd understand.

Queen/David Bowie - Under Pressure SKIN: fanart of Old West Zel with open shirt.
Either my Winamp is perverted, or my computer is. And my comp is bi, I'm sure.

Shaggy - Dance N Shout SKIN: Ken skin again
....weird, yet I like it...

Sting - Desert Rose SKIN: see previous
My comp has a Ken fetish. I'm not about to complain.

I need more skins. Maybe some from Nightwalker... definitely some Outlaw Star. More WK... CCS if I could find any... I'll look tomorrow.



 Comments: 1 sigh



The most noteable pair my skin randomizer ever pulled was "Hooked On Polkas" by Weird Al (which is a feat in and of itself, because I rarely listen to Weird Al) and a Seifer Almasy skin...

I'm convinced that my Winamp is mentally challenged.
