charmednutter. List five songs that you are currently into - it doesn't matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying right now. Post these instructions and the five songs (with artist) in your blog. Then tag five people to see what they're listening to. TAG!
With fave lyrics because this is what is done.
01. Strange & Beautiful: Aqualung
Heard this on an Atlantis vid today and realised how much I love this song!
- I've been watching your world from afar / I've been trying to be where you are / and I've been secretly falling apart, unseen
02. Walkaway Joe: Trisha Yearwood ft. Don Henley
Heard this on the radio yesterday and had to dig it out. It's quite sad but the music is what gets me. Yes, I'm a sap.
- And that boy's just a walkaway Joe / born to be a leaver / tell you from the word go / destined to deceive her
03. Live & Learn: The Cardigans
You know, Love Fool is great and so is War but this song is awesome. Heard it first on Grey's Anatomy and loved it ever since. I might as well paste in all the lyrics because the song is so good but I'll pick out faves.
- I stared into the light to kill some of my pain / it was all in vain cos no senses remain
- God kicked you in the head / so I started a fight / cos I knew I was right / and I learned I was wrong / I remember a slaughter / I remember I fought / for the money I brought / I got blistered and burned / and lost what I earned (Ok, that's the whole 2nd verse. Sigh).
- I came to on a corner with some help from a man / and goddamn, I don't seem to have learned / that a lady in need is guilty indeed / so I paid and got laid in return
04. Portions for Foxes: Rilo Kiley
Another one I heard in GA; this song is crazy happy.
- And the talking leads to touching / and the touching leads to sex / and then there is no mystery left
- And it's bad news / I don't blame you / I do the same thing / I get lonely too
- And you're bad news / my friends tell me to leave you...I don't care, I like you
05. Sunday: Sia
Her voice? In these first few lines? OMGLOVE. (And I'm breaking meme rules and choosing 6 songs because this one was on GA too)
- For those who have slept / for those who have kept / themselves jacked up / how Jesus wept / Sunday
- For those who awake / with a blind headache / who must be still / who will sit and wait / for Sunday to be Monday
06. I'll Make Love To You: Boys2Men (Accapella *squee*)
Yes, yes, sap. Also, this list doesn't include any of the songs I've been raving over with
raynedanser and
charmednutter, lol. But THIS song? THIS version? THIS ACCAPELLA? *dead* Seriously. I love accoustics and accapellas and this one just kills me. *swoon*
- Close your eyes / make a wish / and blow out the candlelight
Edit: I have a huge fandom based essay thing to post. Soon. I kinda sorta might have to write it first. But there's stuff I want to ask about so if everyone can come to that post with fandom switched on? That would be so great. :)
