He War


He War- Cat Power

I love the opening of this song, it reminds me of like a real rock and roll song, but it is interesting because the lead singer has such a beautiful and calming voice- generally- but in this song it is like pretty, but ugly pretty. Does that make sense?

The Five Most Beautiful Song Lyrics That I Know




These are the five most beautiful song lyrics I know of (in order):
And I will love to see that day That day was mine When she will marry me outside by the willow trees And play the songs we made They made me so And I would love to see that day Her day was mine
2. Down By The Water- The Drums
everybody's gotta love some one but i just wanna love you dear everybody's gotta feel something but i just want to be with you, my dear ................ if they stop loving you i won't stop loving you if they stop needing you i'll still need you, my dear
3. Shelter- The xx
And I'll cross oceans, like never before So you can feel the way I feel it too And I'll mirror images back at you So you can see the way I feel it too
4. A Breif History Of Love- The Big Pink
I dreamt we were sleeping and we floated away And we shone like a star and we blinded who stared We listen to the heavens at the silence above Never ask the devil to help the one that you love You said to me baby that you want to feel love Babe we gave it our all but its never enough
...................................
You're in my heart I feel true love and it wont let go It's up to you to mend my heart, please don't let go
5. Sea Of Love- Cat Power
Do you remember When we met That's the day I knew you were mine I wanna tell you How much I love you Come with me My love To the sea The sea of love

These songs actually make me want to cry because they are so beautiful and wonderful and I have never even cried because of happiness before, not once in my life, nor wanted to cry. Since I want to cry of happiness when I hear these lyrics that obviously means that they are truly beautiful. To me these are some of my favorite artists of all time. If you think about it I guess at least 70 percent of songs talk about love or some sort of love. Sometimes it is meaningless, some times it is true love (like these songs), love for the earth, love for peace, love for a friend, love for ones family, but most songs have something to do with some sort of love. Or they talk about how love is painful and love is hard and they struggle with it. By the way do not think I am some sort of intellectual who knows everything about love because I have never "been in love". Does this mean that most artists are looking for some sort of love or want to "fall in love" eventually? And if we as people who do not write songs of make music, but just love music so much does that mean we all are looking for the same thing? Are we all looking for love?

Song of the Day!


I just love re-makes of classic songs! Don't you?

Sea of Love- Cat Power

The song Sea of Love is a 1984 classic by the Honeydrippers, but I personally like Cat Power's better. It is a beautiful song with sweet lyrics. Though, you have to be in the mood to listen to a song so mellow. WARNING: DO NOT PLAY THIS SONG AT A DANCE PARTY!!! Unless it is a slow dance. I love Cat Power!

Song of the Day!


Song of the Day:

Train Song- Ben Gibbard & Feist

My friend introduced me to this song. It is on an album called, Dark Was the Night. I love this album so much. It is has many different artists on the CD such as: Spoon, Grizzly Bear, Yeasayer, Cat Power, Beach House, and many more artists. I love Feist. She is a 34 year old singer from Canada. In 2007 she had a very popular song called, 1 2 3 4. Ben Gibbard is an American 33 year old singer-songwriter.This song is a good early morning song because it has a beautiful melody and is not too loud to wake up to.
