Special

There's a reason I like this song...more than just its beat.

Come On, Eileen
by Dexy's Midnight Runners


"These people 'round here
With their beat down eyes sunk in smoke dried faces
They're resigned to what their fate is
But not us, (no never) no not us (no never)
We are far to young and clever
Come on Eileen
Toora loora toora loo rye aye
I've been on this toon forever"

One hit

(I Would Walk) 500 Miles
by The Proclaimers


"When I'm dreaming
Oh I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you."

Aww home...

Lots of good songs on Pandora tonight. The Broken Bells station is treating me right. I thought about posting a few song since I skipped a few days but...this song is too perfect right now to share with others.

Home
by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes


"We laugh until we think we’ll die,
barefoot on a summer night
Nothin’ new is sweeter than with you

And in the streets we're running
free like i's only you and mee
Geez, you’re somethin' to see."

Some songs

Just pop up out of the blue. This one randomly started playing on my phone. (I also like the original Phil Collins version).

Against All Odds
by The Postal Service


"Take a look at me now,
'cos there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me
is against all odds and that's what I've got to face "

Ask me why and I'll spit in your eye

Still Ill
by The Smiths


"Does the body rule the mind
or does the mind rule the body?
I dunno..."

Hey now, hey now

This song Grabs my attention and holds it. It always has.

Don't Dream It's Over
by Crowded House


"There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road "

Appropriate

Meant to post this before I went to bed last night. Very suiting. Both figuratively and literally (damn sore throat hurts!)

Cough Syrup
Young the Giant

"If I could find a way to see this straight
I'd run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now

And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down"

Save my world?

Capitol H
by Motion City Soundtrack


"I'll be back tomorrow
I'll be back in the ballroom swingin'
I'll be back with my Superman action
And I’m off to save the world"
