LOVE RIDDEN
Love ridden I've looked at you With the focus I gave to my birthday candles I've wished on the lidded blue flames under your brow And baby, I wished for you
Nobody sees you when you are lying in your bed And I wanna crawl with you but I cry instead I want your warm but it'll only make me colder when it's over So I can't tonight, baby
No, not "baby" anymore If I need you I'll just use your simple name Only kisses on the cheek from now on And in a little while we'll only have to wave
My hand won't hold you down no more The path is clear to follow through I stood too ling in the way of the door And now I'm giving up on you
No, not "baby" anymore If I need you I'll just use your simple name Only kisses on the cheek from now on And in a little while we'll only have to wave
No, not "baby" anymore If I need you I'll just use your simple name Only kisses on the cheek from now on And in a little while we'll only have to wave

(I've been listening to this song non-stop the past couple days and it has made me cry countless times...)
Wise Up ~ Aimee Mann
It's not what you thought When you first began it You got what you want Now you can hardly stand it though By now you know it's not Going to stop It's not going to stop It's not going to stop 'Til you wise up
You're sure there's a cure And you have finally found it You think one drink Will shrink you 'til You're underground and living down But it's not going to stop It's not going to stop It's not going to stop 'Til you wise up
Prepare a list of what you need Before you sign away the deed 'Cause it's not going to stop It's not going to stop It's not going to stop 'Til you wise up
No it's not going to stop 'Til you wise up Now it's not going to stop So just give up

Angels and Sweet Dreams, because I've been reading 'Stupid White Men'. I'd never even even heard of the Potomac before Angels, and then the book.

Doing All Right- Queen
Yesterday my life was in ruin Now today I know what I'm doing Gotta feeling I should be doing all right Doing all right
Where will I be this time tomorrow Jump in joy or sinking in sorrow Anyway I should be doing all right Doing all right
Should be waiting for the sun Looking round to find the words to say Should be waiting for the skies to clear There's a time in all the world Should be waiting for the sun And anyway I've got hide away
Yesterday my life was in ruin Now today God knows what I'm doing Anyway I should be doing all right Doing all right
Doing all right
This song keeps popping up for me... It's been a perpetual process of "figuring stuff out," and this song has been an anthem of sorts for the changes in my life.

Another year has flown by.
A Long December - Counting Crows
And its been a long December, and there's reason to believe Maybe this year will be better than the last I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself To hold on to these moments as they pass
And it's one more day up in the canyon And it's one more night in Hollywood It's been so long since I've seen the ocean..I guess I should.[/i]

"Under Control" ~ The Strokes
I don't want to waste your time I don't want to waste your time, I just want to say... I've got to say: We worked hard, darling We don't have no control We're under control.
I don't want to do it your way I don't want to do it your way I don't want to give it to you, your way I don't want to know...
I don't want to change your mind. I don't want to change the world, I just want to watch it go by - I just want to watch you go by. We were young, darling We don't have no control We're out of control...
I don't want to do it your way I don't want to do it your way I don't want to give it to you, your way I don't want to know...
I don't want to change your mind. I don't want to waste your time, I just want to know you're alright; You are young, darling For now, but not for long Under control.

HONEY AND THE MOON ~ Joseph Arthur
Don't know why I'm still afraid If you weren't real I would make you up now I wish that I could follow through I know that your love is true And deep As the sea But right now Everything you want is wrong, And right now All your dreams are waking up, And right now I wish I could follow you To the shores Of freedom, Where no one lives.
Remember when we first met And everything was still a bet In love's game You would call; I'd call you back And then I'd leave A message On your answering machine
But right now Everything is turning blue, And right now The sun is trying to kill the moon, And right now I wish I could follow you To the shores Of freedom, Where no one lives
Freedom Run away tonight Freedom, freedom Run away Run away tonight
We're made out of blood and rust Looking for someone to trust Without A fight I think that you came too soon You're the honey and the moon That lights Up my night
But right now Everything you want is wrong, And right now All your dreams are waking up, And right now I wish that I could follow you To the shores Of freedom Where no one lives
Freedom Run away tonight Freedom freedom Run away Run away tonight
We got too much time to kill Like pigeons on my windowsill We hang around
Ever since I've been with you You hold me up All the time I've falling down
But right now Everything is turning blue, And right now The sun is trying to kill the moon, And right now I wish I could follow you To the shores Of freedom Where no one lives

Do I stress you out My sweater is on backwards and inside out And you say how appropriate I don't want to dissect everything today I don't mean to pick you apart you see But I can't help it There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off Slap me with a splintered ruler And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already If only I could hunt the hunter And all I really want is some patience a way to calm the angry voice And all I really want is deliverance Do I wear you out You must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out I'm consumed by the chill of solitary I'm like Estella I like to reel it in and then spit it out I'm frustrated by your apathy And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land If only I could meet the maker And I am fascinated by the spiritual man I am humbled by his humble nature What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate Someone else to catch this drift And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses Falling all around.... all around Why are you so petrified of silence Here can you handle this? Did you think about you bills, your ex, your deadlines Or when you think you're going to die Or did you long for the next distraction And all I need now is the intellectual intercourse A soul to dig the hole much deeper And I have no concept of time other than it is flying If only I could kill the killer All I really want is some peace man A place to find a common ground And all I really want is a wavelength All I really want is some comfort A way to get my hands untied And all I really want is some justice.....
That about sums it up.
Alanis - All I Really Want.

Jay, I found myself spontaneously humming All I Really Want last night . Heck, it's only of the best anthems written in the last decade.

HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN? ~ Red House Painter
i can't let you be cause your beauty won't allow me wrapped in white sheets like an angel from a bedtime story shut out what they say cause your friends are fucked up anyway and when they come around somehow they feel up and you feel down
when we were kids we hated things our parents did we listened low to casey kasem's radio show that's when friends were nice to think of them just makes you feel nice the smell of grass in spring and october leaves cover everything
have you forgotten how to love yourself?
i can't believe all the good things that you do for me sat back in a chair like a princess from a faraway place nobody's nice when you're older your heart turns to ice and shut out what they say they're too dumb to mean it anyway
when we were kids we hated things our sisters did backyard summer pools and christmases were beautiful and the sentiment of coloured mirrored ornaments and the open drapes look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes
have you forgotten how to love yourself?

I'm not at ALL sensitive about the age of some of my memories at the moment, not even a little bit. Like the fact that Alanis still strikes me as a new generation artist. Wait a minute... she's the same age as me I think... *Feels a paradox invading his conceptual universe and faints*

You're welcome! 2. Yep, 1974 the both of you. 3. 1974....I've got memories of watching PuffNStuff, eating Honeycomb cereal and doing 'death-drops' off the 'big-kids' playground monkey bars in between reading Beverly Cleary books. *old schmold*

"Junkie" ~ Poe
I know how wear the costume I know how to wear the mask I even like the feel of having to ask I like the sound of your whistle I like the way you wear your grin I even like the taste of my will caving in
I'm not a junkie for your love I'm not a junkie I'm not a junkie for your love I'm not a junkie Don't tell the captain Don't you tell him what I've done Keep it coming Keep it coming Stop
This is such a sweet collaboration You got the power & I got the shame Funny thing is we both want somebody to blame
I'm not a junkie for your love... Go tell the captain Won't you tell him what I've done

bluey, there's a different Poe song that reminds me of you everytime I listen to it ....from my "Haunted" cd.... can you guess which one it is?!
Dear Johhny (lol!)
Seriously, though, that cd IS haunting in a creepy-beautiful way. ♥

Ever start humming a familiar tune for no apparent reason and realize you are feeling EXACTLY like it? My mind is psychically connected to my needs today.... hence the Foxtrotting.
===================================
Radio Cure
Cheer up, honey, I hope you can There is something wrong with me My mind is filled with silvery stuff Honey kisses, clouds of fluff Shoulders shrugging off
Cheer up honey, I hope you can
There is something wrong with me My mind is filled with radio cures Electronic surgical words
Picking apples for kings and queens of things I've never seen Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Cheer up honey, I hope you can
There is something wrong with me My mind is filled with silvery stars Honey kisses, clouds of love
Picking apples for the kings and queens of things I've never seen
Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Oh, distance has no way of making love understandable
Cheer up
honey, I hope you can...
