The Wallflowers - Feels Like Summer Again


Artist: The Wallflowers
Song: Feels Like Summer Again
Album: Red Letter Days
Year: 2002


"My mind is open and my heart is full, I ain’t got any weight that I can’t pull, and right now I know that anything is possible..." 

"The future is calling and it’s me that it’s looking for..."

"Cause’ it feels like summer again, I was thinking that it just might never begin, after winter and spring, it’s good to have the sun on my face again..."


*A COMMENT: I know it is not summer yet, but to me it began today, so fuck the protocol... To me this song represents the ends and their consequences, new beginnings. Right now I'm relieved, I took a weight off me, I hope in a few months I can say the same, I will try my best so it stays this way... I guess sometimes is necessary to take a step back in order to  take two forward...

White Lies - Farewell to the Fairground


Artist: White Lies
Song: Farewell to the Fairground
Album: To Lose My Life
Year: 2009

"Farewell to the fairground, these rides aren't working anymore, goodbye to this dead town until the ice begins to thaw, we'll head south, just hold my hand now I feel like I'm casting off my clothes and I'm running through the snow towards the sunset and I'm always with you..."

"Keep on running Keep, keep on running, there's no place like home there's no place like home..."


*A COMMENT: The name of the band fits, the title of the song does as well... Today, it was a happy day... I was going to post a song about quitting or something like that, but decided not to, instead I chose this song, as I said, it fits, at least in titles... I think I'm free for awhile... Am I?

Incubus - Nice To Know You


Artist: Incubus
Song: Nice To Know You
Album: Morning View
Year: 2001


"I haven't felt the way I feel today, in so long its hard for me to specify, I'm beginning to notice how much this feels like a waking limb, pins and needles... Nice to know you... Goodbye!"



*A COMMENT: So, I was just watching 'Incubus Live at Las Vegas' and of course this master piece, witness of my adolescence, was played and I took a moment to apply it to my current situation, and I know the meaning of it is deeper, so I just took the title and the quote up there... In this last year I met people I was glad I did, and I met some others I wouldn't say hello if I ran across  them in the street, nah, I'm too good of a person to do that, but you get the idea... I feel that I've been used, I feel that they took advantage of me (not that way, pervs), but I also learned from it, or at least I hope I have... Anyway... Nice to know you! Both, good people and abusive leeches... I have learned!

Fauxliage - Let It Go

Artist: Fauxliage
Song: Let It Go
Album: Fauxliage
Year: 2007



"I’ll begin to let you go when the sunlight melts the snow, every night I drive away from you, I see the mountains I have yet to move..."

"I wonder if you wanted me like I wanted you, it’s a lonely truth that I can’t change you and you sure can’t change me..."


*A COMMENT: I think I'm mourning something I don't even feel like or need to, I'm just doing it for the sake of it, because we "have to" right? Although I must say I feel OK, perhaps more than OK, finally everything is going smooth, I just hope certain necessary lie don't catch up with me in the near future...

Blue October - The Getting Over It Part

Artist: Blue October
Song: The Getting Over It Part
Album: Any Man In America
Year: 2011
 
"Now I'm shouting out you gotta hear me, can you end this now? I'm tired of waiting..."

"You can't have me tonight, tomorrow night, the next day.for anyone or anything, and anyway, I'm not asking you to stay you're not my fucking problem, one you just throw away..."
 
 
*A COMMENT: Although I know this song was meant to fit in another situation, much more complex than mine, I would like to take up the title of it just for the sake of it and the multiple connotations and uses it can have, in my case, "the getting over it part" on two flanks, and oh boy! Do I feel relieved and content.

Boy Kill Boy - Paris

 
 Artist: Boy Kill Boy
Song: Paris
Album: Stars and The Sea
Year: 2006
 
"So, you've found yourself a partner, it seemed to take so long, a place to call your home. Still, you need so much to listen to each and everyone, their hearts except your own..."
 
 
*A COMMENT: Let me tell you 2 things. The first one is that this is the first time in the history of this blog that I wanted to repeat a song, and after some thinking I decided not to because it would be a "waste" as "my contribution" is so small, a daily song, so, no repeating... The second thing I wanted to tell you is that yesterday I was the most distracted guy in the world, almost run over a guy, left my car emergency lights on and the battery died and at work pfff. I hope today gets better. This is getting me on unconscious levels.
 
Anyway, the song I wanted to repeat is from this same band, it is called A-OK (you can click HERE too), not only because of yesterday's situations, but because I constantly feel like I'm a bit gone and lost, I need a path to follow, but overall everthing is A-OK. Here is Paris, which has also a good quotation (see above) that fits this phase...

The Hives - Find Another Girl


 
Artist: The Hives
Song: Find Another Girl
Album: Veni Vidi Vicious
Year: 2000

"Find yourself another girl who will love you true true true, find yourself another girl save all her love and kisses just for you..."


"But forget about that girl that broke your heart and try start anew, for if there was a guy for her theres got to be a girl somewhere for you..."

*A COMMENT: Let me say OUCH! And no, Charlie did not bite my finger, this is another kind of Ouch! Remember yesterday's post where I said to reset stuff? Well one of the things I referred to  was that, a girl. And yesterday I confirmed my suspicions (remember the one about me being "replaced", well I wasn't that wrong after all) and all I can say besides Ouch! is that partly I'm to blame... Inaction, crappy attitude and my lack of motivation due to some unofrtunate situations prevented me from actually doing something... Anyhow, let's stop being such a whiny fucker and let me wish you all a GREAT WEEK!! :)

"Burberry blue eyes, this town is not so small, if you bang him in the car and leave the doors wide open somebody will see it all..."

Electric Guest - This Head I Hold

Artist: Electric Guest
Song: This Head I Hold
Album: Mondo
Year: 2012


"They call me, a little wound-up, see, I’m upset because I've always been stuck, but I don’t know what it is I’m without, guess I’m in love with always feeling down.... See the problem was I was fully consumed with all of the petty things that I couldn't do, all of the plastic products, shows and woes, I didn't ever show, I let it go..."



*A THOUGHT: Oh shit! The amount of identification I feel with the quotation above is too damn high... A hammer hits the damn nail!

Green Day - Macy's Day Parade


Artist: Green Day
Song: Macy's Day Parade
Album: Warning
Year: 2000

"Give me something that I need, satisfaction guaranteed to you. What's the consolation prize? Economy sized dreams of hope..."

"When I was a kid I thought, I wanted all the things that I haven't got, Oh I learned the hardest way..."


*A COMMENT: It is amazing how we are persuaded to get stuff we don't even need... They make us believe that if we don't have it we won't be happy... And that's that, we put our sense of happiness
in the hands of unimportant goods, in the hands of companies and at the end we are the biggest losers...

Kill the Alarm - Sit Up

Artist: Kill the Alarm
Song: Sit Up
Album: Fire Away
Year: 2007



"I confess, I confess I've been held down Let myself get pushed around I couldn't figure it out, in a word, in a word lost is where I've been, in a word... I couldn't wait to get out of it, I couldn't wait to get out of it, I can't wait..."


*A QUICKIE: This came to me via randomness goddess some yesterdays ago. There is this application on Facebook called 'Animoto', which animates your photos on your Facebook albums and lets you add a song to it... Anyway a friend of mine gave me a link to a video she had uploaded using this and it had this song, she didn't even know the song, she told me it had been chosen randomly... So using the always handy Google, I wound up on this band's page, which let me download this album by submitting my email. Yay! ahoy ahoy! Well, almost...

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros - Man on Fire


Artist: Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros
Song: Man on Fire
Album: Here
Year: 2012

"I’m a man on fire, walking through your street, with one guitar and two dancing feet, only one desire that’s left in me: I want the whole damn world to come dance with me..."



*A COMMENT: Alex and his band are back, yes, the extremely happy 'it freaks me out' lady too... This should be released on May 29th... I just hope the song in the CD comes with a bit more audio quality than the song in the 'Youtube' video, 'cause if that is the actual quality I'm going to be a bit disappointed, especially when there are so many instruments involved, you should be able to distinguish everyone of them and eargasm more... I highly recommend you watch the second video I post here, which is live at Letterman, much more audio quality...
