RadioHead~ Jigsaw Falling into Place!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-RllNyZt90&feature=related Just as you take my hand Just as you write my number down Just as the drinks arrive Just as they play your favourite song As the magic disappears No longer wound up like a spring Before you've had too much Come back and focus again
The walls abandon shape You've got a cheshire cat grin All blurring into one This place is on a mission Before the night owl Before the animal noises Closed circuit cameras Before you're comatose Before you run away from me Before you're lost between the noise The beat goes round and round The beat goes round and round I never really got there I just pretended that I had What's the point of instruments Words are a sawed off shotgun Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Come on and let it out Before you run away from me Before you start unravelling Before you take my mic Just as you dance, dance, dance Jigsaws falling into place There is nothing to explain Regard each other as you pass She looks back, you look back Not just once Not just twice Wish away the nightmare Wish away the nightmare You've got a light you can feel it on your back You've got a light you can feel it on your back Jigsaws falling into place IP: Logged |

I see your Radiohead Solar and raise you a Motorhead Lol!Ace of Spades - Motorhead: If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man, You win some, lose some, all the same to me, The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say, I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, Going with the flow, it's all the same to me, Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you, Double up or quit, double stake or split, The Ace Of Spades You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools, But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live for ever, And don't forget the joker! Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me, Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again, I see it in your eyes, take one look and die, The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be, The Ace Of Spades

Animals ~ The House of the Rising Sun!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRV9QCXLtHQ There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God I know I'm one My mother was a tailor She sewed my new bluejeans My father was a gamblin' man Down in New Orleans Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and trunk And the only time he's satisfied Is when he's on a drunk ------ organ solo ------ Oh mother tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun Well, I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I'm goin' back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain Well, there is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy And God I know I'm one

ROGER WATERS HELLO (I LOVE YOU) LYRICSHave you heard it was on the news your child can read you like a bedtime story Like a Magazine Like a has-been out to grass Like afternoon T.V. Why is my life going by so fast? Hello I love you Is there anybody in there? Put down the phone Shut up the shop Make all their techno babble stop We'll find a short-waved frequency the wave connecting you and me Hello I love you. Have you heard it was on the news the general staff can't figure out is this campaign win or lose Life is long but it goes fast the kids will have to separate their future from our past. Hello I love you Is there anybody in there? the ghosts are walking by my side I feel their love I feel their pride For I have built a bridge or two bridges between me and you Hello I love you. Have you heard it was on the news you can make your peace on the dark side of the moon I'll see you there we can rock 'n' roll we can make our choice we can say goodbye or say hello http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eK6FY4Hykc IP: Logged |

Love this song!!!! Probably Will - Concrete Blond http://www.dizzler.com/music/Concrete_Blonde/Probably_Will They say I maybe crazy I only say I've had my fill They say I'll throw it all away I probably will They'll only give you what you're taking But lately I've been unfulfilled They say I'll probably blow it off someday I probably will The way they talk about each other The way they talk about themselves Well they could talk, talk, talk forever And they probably will You know they probably will Now I'm not really bitter You know Im just a little chilled They say that things can just get better And they probably will And they will only make us stronger If they should try to keep us still And we could rise and take it all Someday We probably will The way they talk about each other The way you talk about yourselves Well you can talk, talk, talk forever And you probably will You know you probably will

i like the Jason Wade Version from the Shrek Soundtrack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TC49Fd-a7D8 You Belong to Me See the pyramids around the Nile Watch the sun rise From the tropic isle Just remember darling All the while You belong to me See the market place In old Algiers Send me photographs and souvenirs Just remember When a dream appears You belong to me And I'll be so alone without you Maybe you'll be lonesome too Fly the ocean In a silver plane See the jungle When it's wet with rain Just remember till You're home again You belong to me Oh I'll be so alone without you Maybe you'll be lonesome too Fly the ocean In a silver plane See the jungle When it's wet with rain Just remember till You're home again You belong to me ------------------ Scio me nihil scire IP: Logged |

A classic but always a welcomed addition .I am feeling very Top Gun-sih today Lol! BTW: Kinda cheeky but those who have taken a chance to look at the following Youtube Video... Doesn't it seems like as if Kenny Loggins is having an orgasm? LOL! Just a thought ppl, just a thought. Kenny Loggins - Highway to the Danger Zone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1a_ikfUico Revvin' up your engine Listen to her howlin' roar Metal under tension Beggin' you to touch and go Highway to the Danger Zone Ride into the Danger Zone Headin' into twilight Spreadin' out her wings tonight She got you jumpin' off the track And shovin' into overdrive Highway to the Danger Zone I'll take you Right into the Danger Zone You'll never say hello to you Until you get it on the red line overload You'll never know what you can do Until you get it up as high as you can go Out along the edges Always where I burn to be The further on the edge The hotter the intensity Highway to the Danger Zone Gonna take you Right into the Danger Zone Highway to the Danger Zone And since we are on the whole Top Gun theme.... Cheap Trick - Mighty Wings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBKOpFVggr8
It's just a ball of dust Underneath my feet It rolls around the sun Doesn't mean that much to me I take a chance on the edge of life Just like all the rest I look inside and dig it out Cause there's no points for second best There's a raging fire in my heart tonight Growing higher and higher in my soul There's a raging fire in the sky tonight I want to ride on the silver dove Far into the night [Chorus] Till I make you take me On your mighty wings Make you take me On your mighty wings across the sky Take me on your mighty wings Take me on your mighty wings tonight With just a little luck A little cold blue steel I cut the night like a razor blade Till I feel the way I want to feel There's a raging fire in my heart tonight Growing higher and higher in my soul There's a raging fire in the sky tonight I want to ride on the silver dove Far into the night [Chorus] Till I make you take me On your mighty wings Make you take me On your mighty wings across the sky Take me on your mighty wings Take me on your mighty wings tonight Take me on your mighty wings Take me on your mighty wings IP: Logged |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFjnit1wyus JACK JOHNSON LYRICS "Upside Down" Who's to say What's impossible Well they forgot This world keeps spinning And with each new day I can feel a change in everything And as the surface breaks reflections fade But in some ways they remain the same And as my mind begins to spread its wings There's no stopping curiosity I want to turn the whole thing upside down I'll find the things they say just can't be found I'll share this love I find with everyone We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs I don't want this feeling to go away Who's to say I can't do everything Well I can try And as I roll along I begin to find Things aren't always just what they seem I want to turn the whole thing upside down I'll find the things they say just can't be found I'll share this love I find with everyone We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste Well it all keeps spinning spinning round and round and Upside down Who's to say what's impossible and can't be found I don't want this feeling to go away Please don't go away Is this how it's supposed to be ------------------ The truth is ... everything counts. Everything. Everything we do and everything we say. Everything helps or hurts; everything adds to or takes away from someone else. ~ Countee Cullen We are weaving character every day, and the way to weave the best character is to be kind and to be useful.

Oh GoatGirl I so love Jack Johnson!!!I also love Ben Harper, I feel I can't have one without the other!!! LOL!! Their great!!! Thanks for sharing that one, I loved that movie also. Jack Johnson and Ben Harper ~ " Gone " !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3q8PIx3BBE " Gone " Well look at all those fancy clothes But these could keep us warm Just like those. And what about your soul Is it cold Is it straight from the mold And ready to be sold. And cars and phones and diamond rings Bling, bling Those are only removable things And what about your mind Does it shine Or are there things that concern you more Than your time Gone going Gone everything Gone give a damn Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing Gone people All awkward with their things Gone Well look at you out to make a deal You try to be appealing but you lose youre appeal And what about those shoes youre in today Theyll do no good All the bridges you burnt a long the way Youre willing to sell anything Gone with your herd Leave your footprints And well shame them with our words Gone people All careless and consumed Gone Gone going Gone everything Gone give a damn Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing Gone people All awkward with their things Gone IP: Logged |

" Better Together " ~ Jack Johnson !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhB_nvYOK4k" Better Together " [Verse 1:] There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard, No song that I could sing But I can try for your heart, Our dreams, and they are made out of real things, Like a shoebox of photographs, With sepiatone loving, Love is the answer At least for most of the questions in my heart , Like why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy, And sometimes life can be deceiving, I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together [Chorus:] MMM, it's always better when we're together Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together Well, it's always better when we're together Yeah, it's always better when we're together [Verse 2:] And all of these moments Just might find their way into my dreams tonight But I know that they'll be gone, When the morning light sings And brings new things, But tomorrow night you see That they'll be gone too, Too many things I have to do, But if all of these dreams might find their way Into my day to day scene I'll be under the impression, I was somewhere in-between With only two, Just me and you Not so many things we got to do, Or places we got to be We'll sit beneath the mango tree now Yeah, it's always better when we're together MMM, We're somewhere in-between together Well, it's always better when we're together Yeah, it's always better when we're together Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm I believe in memories They look so, so pretty when I sleep Hey now, and when, and when I wake up, You look so pretty sleeping next to me But there is not enough time, And there is no, no song I could sing And there is no combination of words I could say But I will still tell you one thing, We're better together

Ben Harper ~ " Better Way " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TILzJ-_4urk&NR=1 BEN HARPER LYRICS
"Better Way" I'm a living sunset Lightning in my bones Push me to the edge But my will is stone Fools will be fools And wise will be wise But i will look this world Straight in the eyes What good is a man Who won't take a stand What good is a cynic With no better plan Reality is sharp It cuts at me like a knife Everyone i know Is in the fight of their life Take your face out of your hands And clear your eyes You have a right to your dreams And don't be denied I believe in a better way IP: Logged |

Ah I love this one. You know when you have one of those days, this song is such a comfort. Its from the soundtrack "Ten things I Hate About You" here is a link to a video tribute to Heath Ledger (its the only video I came across that wasn't a live performance) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjMRYRCSATg SISTER HAZEL LYRICS "Your Winter" The grey ceiling on the earth Well it's lasted for a while Take my thoughts for what they're worth I've been acting like a child In your opinion, and what is that? It's just a different point of view What else, what else can't I do? I said I'm sorry, yeah I'm sorry. I said I'm sorry ,but what for? If I hurt you then I hate myself Don't want to hate myself, don't want to hurt you Why do you choose your pain? If you only know how much I love you, love you [Chorus] I won't be your winter I won't be anyone's excuse to cry We can be forgiven I will be here The old picture on the shelf Well it's been there for a while A frozen image of ourselves We are acting like a child Innocent and in a trance A dance that lasted for a while You read my eyes just like your diary, oh remember, please remember Well, I'm not a beggar, but what's more If I hurt you, then I hate myself, And I don't wanna hate myself, don't wanna hurt you Why do you choose that pain? If you only knew how much I love you I won't be your winter I won't be anyone's excuse to cry We can be forgiven I will be here [Chorus] ------------------ Scio me nihil scire tanslation- I know that I know Nothing IP: Logged |

Lives in the Balance - Jackson Browne http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFowNFvmUxw Ive been waiting for something to happen For a week or a month or a year With the blood in the ink of the headlines And the sound of the crowd in my ear You might ask what it takes to remember When you know that you've seen it before Where a government lies to a people And a country is drifting to war
And there's a shadow on the faces Of the men who send the guns To the wars that are fought in places Where their business interest runs On the radio talk shows and the t.v. You hear one thing again and again How the u.s.a. stands for freedom And we come to the aid of a friend But who are the ones that we call our friends-- These government's killing their own? Or the people who finally can't take any more And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone There are lives in the balance There are people under fire There are children at the cannons And there is blood on the wire Theres a shadow on the faces Of the men who fan the flames Of the wars that are fought in places Where we can't even say the names They sell us the president the same way They sell us our clothes and our cars They sell us every thing from youth to religion The same time they sell us our wars I want to know who the men in the shadows are I want to hear somebody asking them why They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are But they're never the ones to fight or to die And there are lives in the balance There are people under fire There are children at the cannons And there is blood on the wire IP: Logged |
