gnutmeg: (lost)
So, my taste in hard to find music continues. However, I can happily say, I know own a copy of NiNa's album and it only cost $25, shipping and all.


And then I go and update my amazon wishlist, as I realize I've bought/gotten a chunk of things off of it. It's still 6 pages long, though. Tsk tsk for greed on my part.


I need to do some cleaning and some sewing today. Yes. And, if I feel up to it, hit the post office.

I'ma be cool like snacky and play the lyrics game. I'll give you lyrics from 20 random songs, as decided by the shuffling of my mp3 player and you give me the artist & title.

No cheating with google, yo! I'll be nice and only use English lyrics. (No guarantees on English bands, though.)


1. it's wonderful / everywhere, so white / the river has frozen over Under Ice by Kate Bush

2. the zombies that I pass / the guy that beats his baby up / the preachers and their past Tin Machine by David Bowie/Tin Machine

3. children, they can get over everything, can't they?

4. gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields / sold in a market down in New Orleans. Brown Sugar by the Rolling Stones

5. closed eyes / closed heart / now baby that ain't much of a start Prettier Face by Hawksley Workman

6. staring at the sun / no rays down on me / I call you in my arms / embrace is unreal

7. she said / "I know what it's like to be dead / I know what it is to be sad" / and she's making me feel like I've never been born She Said She Said by the Beatles

8. moving like a hunter through my back door / leaving the perfume of all you adore / to die nameless on my floor

9. so I tell them that / I can fly, I will scream, I will break my arm /I will do me harm

10. dying to go there / he's waiting all day / singing my song in an undertone / wondering how to embarrass me right

11. I know that you would / truly be amazed / at what's become of what you made

12. come on over, and do the twist / over do it, and have a fit / love you so much, it makes me sick

13. I'm hanging out the side of Alejandro's ride / I'm trying not to bleed on the car seat

14. I am leaving this harbour / giving urban a farewell / its habitants seem to keen on God / I cannot stomach their rights and wrongs

15. it's everything you had when it breaks / it's the emptiness that's all you have left

16. ten dollars for the room / old blankets smell like old perfume Hotel Fire by Hem

17. I look at you, you bite your tongue / you don't know why or where I'm coming from

18. O, these feet carry me far / O, my body O so tired / mouth is dry, hardly speak/ Holy Spirit rise in me

19. the rooms have a hint of asbestos and maybe just a dash of formaldehyde / and the habit of decomposing right before your very eyes

20. you're crying, cause I've spilt your paints again / but in a few short years, you'll understand true life pain
