I don't know how I came up with this, but I'm almost sure it hasn't been done before. All you have to do is post an emoticon, followed by the name of a prog song that could be associated with it. For example:

- Pigs (Three Different Ones) by Pink Floyd from Animals

That was pretty unoriginal, but you get the jist of it.

Here's another one: - Question by the Moody Blues from A Question of Balance

Jeez, I'm just not thinking today.

I was going for perpetual = emoticons going on and on (but within reason),
and change = good, evil, good, evil, good , evil, etc. Not too good, I admit.

Well my use of emoticons isn't nearly as advanced as yours I can tell. It just seems funny that the big angry one and the small crying one seemingly has eye contact...

"One of These Days I'll Cut You In To Little Pieces" is merely the thought of the angry emoticon.
