Do you ever listen to the same song over and over???

I do. It kinda puts me in a trance state. I tune in and out at different points, appreciating the lyric or melody that lingers by.

Right now it's this:

PICTURE PERFECT

Picture perfect a life that you saw in a magazine
Or maybe a travelling book
Wanted to get on that plane and fly away
cause you are a rock star deep down inside
You walk with a swagger, got nothin' to hide
Cigarette in your mouth, a cuff on your jeans
Your sideburns are perfect, you're a perfect and lean
So you made an oil painting to inmortalize
All of the hope and vision in your eyes
In your leisure coat and cowboy hat
North American records and so much to bat for

Please bring me along
Please bring me along
Because I want to see everything you have to offer me

Get a job lifting cement
Oh it's so dry when it rains it gets wet
And the village was great, now it's a suburb
You left behind half of all that you had learnt
Relearn a couple things along the way
The thrift shop so clean all for half what you'd pay
So you try everything on, on for size
Drop top your Camaro and go for a ride

Please bring me along
Please bring me along
Because I want to see everything you have to offer me

And I don't mind to sit here and waste my time
Oh but this world is not mine to define
And I want to shine

Please bring me along
Please take me away
I don't want to stay

And I want to see everything you have to offer me
And I want to see everything you have to offer me
And I want to see everything you have to offer me

I want to see everything the world has to offer me
I want to see everything the world has to offer me
I want to show everything I have to offer it
I want to show everything I have to offer it now

by Nelly Furtado
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

i listened to a song called "bone bomb" from the new brian eno album three times last night, which is the first time in a long time i've listened to a song on repeat. the music was just so intense, i wanted to hear it again and again, and when i started piecing together the lyrics, i realized what a really tragic, haunting song it is.

I was thinking of you as I wrote this.

I burned "Breakin' Me" when I was at your house. Just that one song, and listened to it over and over and over as I drove to Tucson.

I realize that I only employ the over and over practice with reflective or melancholy songs. Sometimes a good fun happy song I'll play twice, but over and over it's just sad songs. "Sad songs say so much..." hmmm

Lloyd Cole's song "Negative Attitude."

But it happens often, that's just the song for now.
Insatiable taught me everything I know about balls.

I also do it all the time.
Being a musician, i'm focusing on different things (or sometimes the same thing) each go 'round.

My 16 year old son has now picked up this habit.
This past Saturday he listened to Third Stone From The Sun by Jimi Hendrix non-stop, ALL DAY!
Didn't notice the smell of pot coming from his room whofarted so I left him alone. lol

Break away Chris... be free. heart kiss2


I have been stuck on Mariah Carey's "Fly Like A Bird". I listen to it in the morning, in my car... and while I am at my dest at work. Then... back in my car driving home, when I get home and it all starts over the next day. I keep the repeat button on. It is not a sad song, which brings to mind... I do this with songs that have a personal meaning, one that inspires me through words, sound and overall feel.

This song has been a constant for weeks now.

yes. however i haven't played this song in ages, but i've been hearing it everywhere. so it's been stuck in my head for over a week now. and NO it's NOT Kylie's "Can't Get You Out Of My Head". Anyway..it appears that this song is following me around for a reason. neutral



EVANESCENCE

"My Immortal"

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating mind
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
