I thought I'd jump on
manos74's bandwagon and do the 10 songs and 10 books thing.
10 songs I've been listening to lately, in no particular order:
buildings and bridges/are made to bend in the wind/to withstand the world, /that's what it takes/all that steel and stone/is no match for the air, my friend/what doesn't bend breaks/what doesn't bend breaks...
-Ani Difranco, "Buildings and Bridges", on "Out of Range"
No one in the world ever gets what they want and that is beautiful/Everybody dies frustrated and sad and that is beautiful...
-They Might Be Giants, "Don't Let's Start", on "Dial-A-Song"
I've been cheated/been mistreated/when will I be loved?
-sung by Ambiance, "When Will I Be Loved" on "I Hear a Rhapsody"
I just hope it was okay/I know it wasn't perfect/I hope in the end we can laugh/and say it was all worth it...
-Ani Difranco, "Hour Follows Hour", on "Not A Pretty Girl"
you know there're pieces of me you've never seen/maybe she's just pieces of me you've never seen...
-Tori Amos, "Tear In Your Hand", on "Little Earthquakes"
I can hear your bare feet on the kitchen floor/and I don't have to have these dreams no more and I've/found someone to hold me tight/hold the insomniac all night...
-Billy Pilgrim, "Insomniac", from "Billy Pilgrim"
She dances and I dream/she's not so far as she seems/Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets,/Her hair blowing in the breeze.
-Big Head Todd and the Monsters, "Bittersweet", on "Sister Sweetly"
what kind of paradise am I looking for?/I've got everything I want and still I want more...
-Ani Difranco, "Grey", on "So Much Shouting, So Much Laughter"
and she's alone/and I'm alone/and now I know it...
-Ben Folds Five, "Brick", on "Forever and Ever Amen"
now we're talkin' bout a difficult thing/and your eyes are getting wet/but I took us for better and I took us for worse/and don't you ever forget it...
-Indigo Girls, "Power of Two", on "Swamp Ophelia"
I was *going* to do the 10 books thing too, but this has taken me a long time, so I think I'll save that and work on it during Jamie's naptime today. :)
