Use lyrics from one artist or band to answer the questions:

1. Are you male or female?:

I’m a little good girl
I’m a little good girl

OLIVIA–Walk On By

2. Describe yourself:

Oh I, I might be small
but it doesn’t mean I can’t reach the sky
I, I might be weak
but it doesn’t mean you can knock me down

OLIVIA–Dress Me Up [English]

3. How do some people feel about you?:

The devil is in me
The devil is in me
The devil is in me
Oh no

OLIVIA–Devil’s in Me

4. How do you feel about yourself?:

i ja nai kara
Dekinai futotte iru kara
Dekinai atama itai kara
Dekinai hatachi sugite iru kara
Dekinai jikan ga nai kara
Dekinai umaku nai kara
Dekinai nemui kara
Dekinai kyou wa tsukareta kara

English translation:
I can’t because I’m not beautiful,
I can’t because I’m fat
I can’t because I have a headache,
I can’t because I’m over 20 years old
I can’t because I have no time,
I can’t because I’m not good at it
I can’t because I’m sleepy,
I can’t because I’m tired today

OLIVIA– Dekinai

5. Describe your girlfriend/boyfriend/interest:

I watch you look out the window
Into the luminous blue sky
With eyes of loneliness
As if you had to go

What will it take to win your smile?
Does it help for you to know
That nothing can break my love for you
Believe in me, if you need to believe

OLIVIA–Space Halo

6. Where would you rather be?:

I want to be up high up with the sun
Disappear completely into love
I want to be up high up where I can
See the secret roads

OLIVIA–Celestial Delinquent

7. Describe what you want to be:

Come back into the world shiny and new
I will meet you there when everything’s okay
We’ll have a good old time together
I’ll have new ideas
I’ll be able to laugh
I’ll be able to love myself

OLIVIA–Dreamcamp

8. Describe how you live:

I am tripping out on myself
I am tripping out on myself
I have to watch my thoughts
Before they come to life
Before they come to life

I have to get you out of my head
I have to swallow my tongue
I have to find where I went
Before she comes to life
Before she comes to life

OLIVIA–Mint

9. Describe how you love:

I want to believe in love
I want to believe this feeling
That I feel deeply for you
But if you can’t
Turn away and go
Don’t turn back
And I’ll do the same

OLIVIA–Alone in our Castle

10. Share a few words of wisdom:

It’s what you make it
It’s how you see it
It’s how you take it
It’s your own design

OLIVIA–Slow-Mo

I’m not entirely satisfied with some of the answers (they’re tricky, since a lot of OLIVIA’s songs are Japanese. And even when they’re in English, they’re kind of whimsical and quirky in the first place).

I love, love OLIVIA. That is all. :D
