Are you obsessed?

You know you're obsessed with
Velvet Goldmine when...

You've read The Picture of Dorian Gray for the VG quotes
and you now own it

Your dramatic transformation to London-party-girl
is a constant source of amusement *

You love REM simply because of
Micheal Stipe's producing talent

You're looking for the damn exclusive copy *

You own the soundtrack only because you had
to memorize every word of every song

You have memorized every word to every song
and Brian's/Curt's dance to them

You dance like Brian/Curt to them (or try:)

You look for The Pin desperatly *
You own something that looks like The Pin
and you tell people it belonged to Oscar Wilde
(at least that's what you were told)

You think you're Arthur

You call people "Mist-ah BBC" *

You research on Iggy and Bowie soley to find out
their simularities to Curt and Brian

You think Reynolds is a tremendous leader *

You own the movie

You watch it daily and you're not yourself
if you haven't seen it in a day

When you don't know the answer to a question you say,
"I'm just lookin for a room at thah moment" *

You own big specks of gold glitter
just because of Curt's use of it

Yesterday, upon the stair, you saw a man that wasn't there,
he wasn't there again today, how you wish he was Curt Wild *

You don't fast forward through the "boring" parts
You don't think there are any boring parts
Your "rewind" and "slow" buttons are wearing out

You don't look at the world and change yourself *

You've made your own VG T-shirt

You sketch Brian and/or Curt
(preferably on your notebook during class)

You have a collage of vg pictures

You pit things in a big pile of coke so you won't forget.....
but you already have *

You constantly quote vg to your friends

You know all the minor characters
(Angel, Cooper, Freddi, etc.)

You wish Brian would flick his cigarette
and steal your watch

Someone says, "Oh gosh!" and you automatically
say, "My geesh, dahh-ling!"

Whenever you bring up VG some people you know roll their eyes
and say, "Oh god, not that movie AGAIN"

You would have done anything to be an extra

You've mememorized every line

When smoking a cigarette,
you can't help but hold it like Mandy
and continually quote her

You sing "steam steady roller ladytron controller"
into lillies when no one's looking

You search record stores for a Brian Slade album,
only to remember he's not real
You wish they'd play a Brian Slade video on VH1,
only to remember he's not real
The fact that Brian's not real makes you sad

You write VG fanfic

You can't imagine life without VG
You can't remember how you lived without it

People tell you you're obsessed
You agree with them
