I seem to get stuck on a song and have to put it on repeat for a few days to get over it. This time it's The Fray's You Found Me. I heard it's about God so that sucks.

C'mon guys let's cheese it up w/ some Ryan Cabrera. He's got the hair!

Sick and Tired of this world
There's no more air
Trippin' over myself
Goin' nowhere
Waiting
Suffocating
No direction
And I took a dive

And on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you

I've been wondering why
It's only me
Have you always been inside
Waiting to breathe
It's alright
Sunlight
On my face
I wake up and yeah, I'm alive

'cause on the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
Almost fell right through
But I held onto you

I was so afraid
Of going under
But now
The weight of the world
Feels like nothing, no, nothing

Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
Down, down, down
You're all I needed
Down, down, down
You're all I wanted
You're all I needed

And I won't forget the way you loved me

All that I wanted
All that I needed

On the way down
I saw you
And you saved me
From myself
And I won't forget
The way you loved me
On the way down
I almost fell right through
But I held onto you

Down, down, down
But I held onto you
Down, down, down
But I held onto you

My commute is so short, yay!, that I don't get in many songs on my way but usually what I do end up listening to sticks w/ me for the day, like the songs I posted the other day, I heard those on my 15 min. commute into work.

So for today it was:

'Interesting Drug' Morrissey

'Can't Hold Us Down' Christina A and Lil Kim

'Wrong Impression' Natalie Imbruglia

'I'm a Believer' The Sheila Divine. One of my favorite all-time songs ever and my favorite Sheila song! I wanted to link to a better video of this song but there are only 3 on YouTube and mine goes right into the song so I'm using it again. It's not the best but it is mine.

Enjoy the music!

"I can't stop the music"

I have lots of things going on in my head right now and these songs go for some reason.

Love Anastacia ever since she was on The Cut w/ host Left-Eye Lopes, the MTV show that no one saw but me and rr and Anastacia doesn't want you to see because she was hideous in a 'real-not plastic' way.

Can't find a video for my Beth Orton song 'God Song' so I'll just have to put the lyrics.

My house was built for loving not a theatre of war
I take the poison for the cure
But he's my man and I've been doing him wrong
Yeah he's my man and I've been doing him wrong
And I'm praying for the strength not to carry on

I've watched and learnt to lead a decent life
But meanwhile I'm dying inside
Cos he's my man and I keep doing him wrong
Yeah he's my man and I've been doing him wrong
But I'm praying for the strength not to carry on

I was built for loving not playing at war
And I leave justice in the good hands of the law
But he's my man and I've been doing him wrong
Yeah he's my man and I've done him wrong
But I'm praying for the strength not to carry on

Go listen!

Sorry gotta add another one even though it's the next day now.

Erasure's Love To Hate You

Not sure how this got into my head but it did and luckily I own it so I can listen.

See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night.
A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything's alright.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

See the paper layin' on the sidewalk, a little music from the house next door.
So I walk on up to the doorstep, through the screen and across the floor.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom. July is dressed up and playing her tune.
And I come home from a hard day's work, and you're waiting there, not a care in the world.
See the smile a-waitin' in the kitchen, food cookin' and the plates for two.
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me, in the evening when the day is through.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

Tu déconnes on va pas se faire
Encore un plan gros ça comme
De quel plan tu causes?
Tu oses, c'est toi qu'a commencé...
J'abandonne
T'es vraiment trop bonne
À pas grand'chose, tu déconnes
Tu vois, lui, me trouve super bonne

À cause des garçons!
On met des bas nylon
On se crêpe le chignon
À cause des garçons!
Et du "qu'en dira-t-on"
On pleure sur tous les tons
À cause des garçons!
On s'allume pour de bon
À cause des garçons!

À cause des garçons!

Carabine,
C'est le mot qui m'vient
Quand je pense à mes copines
Et moi j'ai ma dose
Sans déc, de tes doses
De Ginette
J'hallucine
Faut qu'on te vaccine
Tout ça pour un mec de frime
Tu déprimes, j'te le laisse
Si c'est ton style

À cause des garçons!
On met des bas nylon
On se crêpe le chignon
À cause des garçons!
Et du "qu'en dira-t-on"
On pleure sur tous les tons
À cause des garçons!

J'mens tu mens nous mentons
On glisse comme des savons
À cause des garçons!
On se brouille pour de bon
À cause des... À cause des...

À cause des garçons!
On met des bas nylon
On se crêpe le chignon
À cause des garçons!
Et du "qu'en dira-t-on"

If you don't know French, here's a translation w/ a bit different lyrics than above, including the rap part.

I went running this morning, did some hill repeats, and this song helped me out. One of my all-time favorite Depeche Mode songs.

In your room
Where time stands still
Or moves at your will
Will you let the morning come soon
Or will you leave me lying here
In your favourite darkness
Your favourite half-light
Your favourite consciousness
Your favourite slave

In your room
Where souls disappear
Only you exist here
Will you lead me to your armchair
Or leave me lying here
Your favourite innocence
Your favourite prize
Your favourite smile
Your favourite slave

I'm hanging on your words
Living on your breath
Feeling with your skin
Will I always be here

In your room
Your burning eyes
Cause flames to arise
Will you let the fire die down soon
Or will I always be here
Your favourite passion
Your favourite game
Your favourite mirror
Your favourite slave

I'm hanging on your words
Living on your breath
Feeling with your skin
Will I always be here

Brings back some good memories from undergrad at UB. the Tragically Hip performed on campus one year.

Watch the band through a bunch of dancers
Quickly, follow the unknown with something more familiar
Quickly something familiar
Courage, my word it didn't come it doesn't matter

Sleepwalk, so fast asleep in a motel
that has the lay of home and piss on all of your
background and piss on all your surroundings
Courage, my word, it didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, your word, it didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, my word, it didn't come, it doesn't matter
Courage, it couldn't come at a worse time

So there's no simple explanation
for anything important any of us do
and yea the human tragedy
consists in the necessity
of living with the consequences
under pressure, under pressure
Courage, my word, it didn't come, it doesn't matter,
Courage, your word, it didn't come, it dosen't matter,
Courage, my word, it didn't come, it dosen't matter
Courage, it couldn't come at a worse time,
It couldn't come at a worse time,
It couldn't come at a worse time
Courage

I was going to link to a YouTube video where Paramore just performed this on MTV for New Year's but it was too hard to take, plus Tila Tequila was the VJ.

I got a lot to say to you
Yeah, I got a lot to say
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keeping them here
And it makes no sense at all

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one two of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this

If you want to play it like a game
Well, come on, come on, let's play
Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one two of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this

Rock and roll, baby
Don't you know that we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
Give me something to sing about

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one two of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
No, oh

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one two of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
More than this

Just can't get enough :0)

That time has passed
Some things that never really last
We've come undone
To me you'll always be the one

Calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right

Calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right

I walk alone
And you know I never felt at home
I'm so hard to please
And I have everything I need

Oh, calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right

Oh, calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
