I was originally going to do some sort of complicated, memeish post, where I posted song lyrics for certain people.

But then I decided that that was stupid.

So, here are some song lyrics that have been on my mind lately, some of which may pertain to certain people. And some of which, well, don't. (And some of which totally pertained to certain people when I was gathering them, but then I decided that that was a stupid idea, and so they no longer pertain to anyone.)

I'm going fast as I can
Please don't make me rush
This feelings coming on way too fast
I'll tell you all of the things
That you'll never forget
But I'm not ready to say 'I love you' yet.
(Fast as I Can, Great Big Sea)

Lately I feel so small
Or maybe it's just that my bed has grown
Never felt this way before
But you were there, so how was I to know
That this single bed was always meant for two
Not just anyone --it was meant for
Me and you
(Belgium (Acoustic)*, Bowling For Soup)

Can I hear you laugh, babe?
Can you make me smile?
I'll forget what's on my mind for a while

Can I tie you up, love?
Tell me yes
I'll unbutton every button down your green green dress
(Green Green Dress, tick tick...BOOM!)

CAN'T STOP
BARAK
CAN'T STOP BARAK
CAN'T STOP
BARAK
CAN'T STOP BARAK

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell
Which way to Never Never Land
Emerald City's gone to hell
Since the wizard blew off his command
On the street you hear the voices
Lost children, crocodiles
But you're not into
Making choices, wicked witches
Poppy fields or men behind the curtains
Tiger lilies, ruby slippers
Clock is ticking, that's for certain

They're singing 'Happy Birthday'
I just wish it all were a dream
It feels much more like doomsday
But 30/90
Seems like I'm in for a twister
I don't see a rainbow, do you?
(30/90, tick tick...BOOM!)

Mari-Mac's mother's making Mari-Mac marry me
My mother's making me marry Mari-Mac
Well I'm going to marry Mari for when Mari's taking care of me
We'll all be feeling merry when I marry Mari-Mac
(Mari-Mac, Great Big Sea)

Judey-judey-judey-judey-judey!
OR
Since you left me I'm so alone,
Now you're coming, you're coming home,
I'll be good like I know I should,
You're coming home, you're coming home.
OR
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
OR
He's got feet down
Below his knees
OR
I am the eggman
They are the eggman
I am the walrus -koo-koo-kachoo
OR
All you need is Love
(Covers of a whole bunch of Beatles songs, Across the Universe movie soundtrack)

What have YOU been listening to lately?

~Sor
MOOP!

*The acoustic part is important. The non-acoustic version sounds like a horrible mockery of every boy band ever. Which it probably is, but it's a damn pretty song when they're not turning it into a parody, and a aural nightmare when they're not. Seriously, I can't get through more than a minute of the regular version of this song, because I want to tear my ears off, and I enjoy the Spice Girls non-ironically. That's how bad it is.

Woo, i recognized The Beatles songs! (and of course, i hear the originals in my head when i read the lyrics not the covers ;P)

i am currently listening to Rather A Lot of King Crimson (a mp3 disc so named by W because it has about seven albums on it) 'cause the other day Rtizy was asking about head-banging rock and they do rather have some of that. They also have soft lilting stuff. And weird ethereal jazzy stuff. And sometimes they have those things ALL IN THE SAME SONG. Funstuff. My favorites off the top of my head are Court of the Crimson King and I am a Dinosaur

What I've been listening to is obscure Russian stuff that nobody knows. Correction: what I've been listening to is well-known songs from a few decades of popular Russian movies. Which boils down to much the same thing in practical terms.
