Monday Music

sorry I've been gone so very long. 
here's a boatload of marvelous music to make up for it

 One of the most beautiful songs. Ever.
"Fare thee well
My own true love
Farewell for a while
Im going away
But Ill be back
Though I go 10,000 miles
10,000 miles
My own true love
10,000 miles or more
The rocks may melt
And the seas may burn
If I should not return"
-10,000 Miles by Mary Chapin Carpenter

"Oh, I've just come from the land of the sun
From a war that must be won in the name of truth
With our soldiers so brave your freedom we will save
With our rifles and grenades and some help from God
I want to see my family
My wife and child are waiting for me
I've got to go home
I've been so alone, you see"
-Love Vigilantes by Iron and Wine

"As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown?
Good Lord show me the way!
O sisters let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sisters let's go down
Down in the river to pray"
-Down to the River to Pray by Alison Krauss
"Belief in the breeze,
The smoky morning haze.
The sun on her face,
and the touch of lovers' hands.
The pain that comes today,
Is here, then goes away.
And we are homeward bound,
And I,
I want this more than life,
I want this more than life,
I want this more than life.
To touch something real,
Will help your wounds heal,
Like the sun on your face,
The dreams of starry nights."
-More Than Life by Whitley


JAM TO THIS SONG RAAAHHH RAAAHHH YAAAAHH

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone"
-Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You) by Kelly Clarkson



"She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby"
-Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley and Alison Krauss



"Love of mine, someday you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark"
-I'll Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab For Cutie


one of the greatest songs, ever. i love elle goulding so the link is to her version, but i can't help loving elton too
"It's a little bit funny this feeling inside

I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen"

-Your Song by Elton John (Elle Goulding Version!)

 GREAT BEGINNING:

"Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath"

-Teardrop by Massive Attack (THEME SONG FOR House!!!)

"She makes his coffee, she makes his bed,

She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
When she was twenty-one she wore her mother's lace
She said "forever" with a smile upon her face
She does the car-pool, she PTAs
Doctors and dentists, she drives all day
When she was twenty-nine she delivered number three
And every Christmas card showed a perfect family
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
God forbid you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
She packs his suitcase, she sits and waits
With no expression upon her face
When she was thirty-six she met him at their door
She said I'm sorry, I don't love you anymore
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her"
-He Thinks He'll Keep Her by Mary Chapin Carpenter'
I grew up listening to Mary Chapin Carpenter, she's wonderful

"Caught up and i can't feel my hands, No need to chase
Can you relate? Can you keep up the pace like you're dying for this?
And when you say "I'm not okay", I left my phone in the cab
Now you can't get me
I’m only getting started, I won't blackout
This time I got nothing to waste
Let’s go a little harder
I’m on fire, I won't blackout
I’m on my way"
-Blackout by Breathe Carolina

Check out this song called Hard Times. pretty sweeeeeeet

im sorry i love this song so much, listening to it with Papa in da carrr:

"Christmas night, it clutched the light, the hallow bright
above my brother, I and tangled spines
we smoked the screen to make it what it was to be
now to know it in my memory:
…and at once I knew I was not magnificent
high above the highway aisle
(jagged vacance, thick with ice)
I could see for miles, miles, miles"

-Holocene by Bon Iver

really cool video, love the chorus, ehh about the speaking partz:

"I turn the music up, I got my records on
I shut the world outside until the lights come on
Maybe the streets alight, maybe the trees are gone
I feel my heart start beating to my favorite song
And all the kids they dance, all the kids all night
Until Monday morning feels another life
I turn the music up
I'm on a roll this time
And heaven is in sight"

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall by COLDPLAY 

(best band. ever. no argument.)

Love the lyrics, started to get sick of the song on the radio though :/

"If I could find a way to see this straight

I'd run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now
And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down
Life's too short to even care at all oh
I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control "

-Cough Syrup by Young the Giant

"I've got my ear 

Pressed to the glass
Pressed to the wall
I wasn't sure
But I think I got it all
And it was too late
For any lame apologies
By the way
It's your second face I didn't see
About what I heard
And I just can't believe it's true
All the things I didn't know about you
So won't you
Come on, come on
A lie awaits
How you sleep so easy is
A mystery"

-Come On by Letters to Cleo

"We are the damned, the cursed and the broken
There's so much more inside us
We are the lost, the sick and unspoken
There's so much more inside us"

-Creatures by Motionless in White

****BEWARE THE VIDEO IS INSANE****

Sunshine,
On the window,
Makes me happy,
Like I should be
Outside,
All around me,
Really sleazy,
Then it hits me
Don’t tell me,
You can see,
What It means to me,
Leave me be

-Calypso by Spiderbait

awesome woot woootttt

"How did Mandela get the will to surpass the everyday
when injustice had him caged and trapped in every way?
How did Gandhi ever withstand the hunger-strikes at all?
Didn't do it to gain power or money if I recall. It's the gift,
I guess I'll pass it on, mother thinks it'll lift the stress of Babylon
my mother knows, my mother she suffered blows
I don't know how we survived such violent episodes
I was so worried, it hurt to see you bleed,
but as soons as you came out the hospital you gave me sweets yea,
they tried to take you from me, but you still only gave 'em some prayers and sympathy
Dear Mama, you helped me write this
by showing me to give is priceless
And any man who knows a thing
knows he knows not a damn, damn thing at all
And every time I felt the hurtin'
I felt the givin' gettin' me up off the wall
I'm just gonna take a minute to let it ride
I'm just gonna take a minute and let it breathe
I'm just gonna take a minute to let it ride
I'm just gonna take a minute and let it breathe"

-Take a Minute by K'naan

"I grabbed some frozen strawberries
So I could ice your bruisy knees
But frozen things, they all unfreeze and now I taste like
All those frozen strawberries I used to chill your bruisy knees
Hot July ain't good to me
I'm pink and black and blue
I got bruises on my knees for you
And grass stains on my knees for you
Got holes in my new jeans for you
Got pink and black and blue"

-Bruises by Chairlift

thanks for reading!!

great dance song, so goooood

"Look up at the rooftops

When you're walking round

Don't think for a moment

Of looking down

A room at the top

Where we're not allowed

Cheer to the echo

Can you hear the sound

Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)

For the wings of a dove"

-Wings of a Dove by Madness

"Why do you come here, when you know

 I've got troubles enough?

Why do you call me, when you know 

I can't answer the phone? 

And make me lie when I don't want to, 

And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?

 Make me stay when I should not? 

If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. 

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?"

-The Weakness by Joan Armatrading

"So you lie there holding your breath
And it's strange how soon you forget
That you're like stars
They only show up when it's dark
Cause they don't know their worth
And I think you need
To stop following misery's lead
Shine away, shine away, shine away
Isn't it time you got over
How fragile you are
We're all wait-
Waiting on your supernova
Cause that's who you are
And you've only begun to shine
There are times when
The poets and porn stars align and
You won't know who to believe in
Well that's a good time to be leavin'
And the past, it knocks on your door
And throws stones at your window at 4 in the morning
Well maybe he thinks it's romantic
He's crazy but you knew that before"

-Shine by Anna Nalick

"This lullaby is only simple chords

A few soft spoken words
From my heart to yours
So sleep, don't think about the world tonight
It's you and me, and everything's alright
This lullaby is meant to help you dream
Of only happy things
And maybe once of me
So sleep, don't think about the world tonight
It's you and me, and everything's alright
This lullaby makes me want to cry
Until my tears run dry
And you hold me through the night"

-This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen, never recorded.

I LOVE LISSIE. FAVORITE. LISTEN.

"But I would walk 500 miles

And I would walk 500 more

                                       Just to be the man who walked a 1000 miles 

To fall down at your door 

When I'm working yes I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you 

And when the money comes in for the work I'll do

I'll pass almost every penny on to you 

When I come home oh I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

And if I grow old well I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you"

-I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) by the Proclaimers

The video is awesome...a great song for a great movie (Benny and Joon)

Bob Marley is one of the greatest men to ever live. He is absolutely amazing, his

performances are breathtaking.  How can you not love him.

"I remember when we used to sit in the government yard in Brooklyn. 

Observing the crookedness as it mingled with the good people we meet.

Good friends we had,

Good friends we've lost along the way.

In this great future you can't forget your past,

So dry your tears I say

And to my peeps who passed

Away,

No woman, no cry, no woman no cry, say say say.

Hey little sister don't shed no tears

No woman no cry say say say. "

-No Woman No Cry by Bob Marley

"Happy is the heart that still feels pain

                                              Darkness drains and light will come again

Swing open your chest and let it in

Just let the love, love, love begin

Everybody, everybody wants to love

Everybody, everybody wants be to loved"

-Everybody by Ingrid Michaelson

such an epic remixxx

"There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down"

-For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield

"Under the skin
It's not so easy to swallow
Don't reel me in
To find my dreams are so hollow
What is it you got I don't get
I watch you fumbling again
Look dreamy behind your cigarette
Know it ain't true now"

-Starstruck by Santogold

"Cause you make me feel
Cause you make me feel wild
You touch my inner smile
You got me in the mood
So come and make your rule
And free me"

-Inner Smile by Texas

Featured in the movie Bend It Like Beckham 

 "You can look all over but no
you'll never find
(hot shit) like mine
WOOP.... it blow your mind.
You can look all over but no
you'll never find
(hot shit) like mine
Cause I provide
That new new"

-Dat New "New" by Kid Cudi

CURRENT FAVORITE SONG:

"Sunday dreamers end up last
Fixing holes in sunken past
Please don’t blame me for my lies
Just to keep him by my side
I don’t mind if papa cares or
Even if my mama stares
Step right in let
This be true
I beg you get to think the way I do I got
You
I got you under my skin
I got you over my grin
I got you under my skin
I got you
I got you under my kiss
I got you over my lips
I got you under my skin"

-Under My Skin by Gin Wigmore

 "It's undeniable how brilliant you are
In an unreliable world you shine like a star
It's unforgettable now that we've come this far
It's unmistakable that you're undeniable"

"Judge you wanna hear my plea
Before you open up your court
But I don't want no sympathy
'Cause I done cut my good man's throat
I caught him whith a trifling Jane
I warned him 'bout before
I had my knife and went insane
And the rest you ought to know
Judge, judge, please mister judge,
Send me to the 'lectric chair
Judge, judge, good mister judge,
Let me go away from here"

-Send Me To The Lectric Chair by Dinah Washington (Bessie)

"Swing and turn, Jubilee

Live and learn, Jubilee 

The moon came up, I stood my ground and swore to not give in 

To never rest and do my best to rid this world of sin

Swing and turn, Jubilee

Live and learn, Jubilee"

-Jubilee by Alison Krauss

Alison Krauss' voice is absolutely breathtaking.

Jubilee was featured in the movie Paperclips

"You will fly and you will crawl;
God knows even angels fall.
No such thing as you lost it all.
God knows even angels fall.
It's a secret no one tells;
One day it's heaven, one day it's hell.
It's no fairy tale;
Take it from me,
That's the way it's supposed to be."

-Even Angels Fall by Jessica Riddle

I loved this song in 10 Things I Hate About You, Heath Ledger is a god.

My favorite part of the movie is when Kat reads her poem

"And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah"

-Shake It Out by Florence and the Machine

"I need love, love
To ease my mind
I need to find, find someone to call mine
But mama said
You can't hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

-You Can't Hurry Love by Diana Ross and the Supremes

 have a great day!!
