The LOVEmix Meme.

May 23, 2009 21:24

For some reason I felt incredibly compelled to make a meme today. After some brainstorming with pettyscene, this is the meme that came out of it. We both very much like the idea of this, so hopefully it doesn't fail too hard, lol. I'd love everyone on my flist to comment to this, that's for sure. And try to participate as well. Even if you can't participate ( Read more... )

I'm ready to be extraordinary.

Mozart he said "there's nothing to composing"
And that's all we do
We just write and play and write and play and write and...
* Meg & Dia - Here, Here and Here (on youtube)

In the terminal she sleeps on my shoulder, hair falling forward, mouth all askew.
Fluorescent announcements beat their wings overhead: passengers missing, we're looking for you.
And she dreams through the noise, her weight against me, face pressed into the corduroy grooves.
* Vienna Teng - Recessional (live version on youtube)

Gillian played me a song
I was so tired, then the music caressed my skin
Like when someone finally holds you
And you can give in
* Ane Brun - Gillian (on youtube)

As long as the day is full of time, there will always be room for your hand in mine
* Brandi Carlile - Fall Apart Again (on youtube)

But if you left it up to me
Every day would be a holiday from real
We'd waste our weeks beneath the sun
* Jack's Mannequin - Holiday From Real (live version on youtube; best I could find)

Life gets a little better, ( ... )

This Is The Day ... TO BE FREE

Annie, I always associate you with something cozy, something innocence -- maybe because of your age? :). I also know that you love songs that are not mainstream. So these are my fanmix for you, songs from musicians I know you like and well, those I like. Also few that always make me think of innocence. Consists of 7 songs because 7 is my favorite number :)

1. Make It Mine (Jason Mraz)
2. Stars And Boulevard (Augustana)
3. Reason Why (Rachael Yamagata)
4. Angel (Sarah McLachlan)
5. Have A Little Faith In Me (Jewel)
6. Bubbly (Colbie Calliat)
7. A Place In This World (Taylor Swift)

Babydoll

LOVEmix for Annie (because you are my Babydoll, the littles sister of the pack and the cutest *wink*)

1.
Bethany Joy Galeotti - Feel This (need I say why?)

It's gotta be this one,
You don't have to fake it
You know I can take it
What if I told you your tears haven't been ignored
And everything that was taken can be restored

2.
Britney Spears - I Will Be There

When you need someone
You just turn around
And I will be there
When you're feeling low
Baby let me know
And I will be there

3.
Justin Nozuka - Don’t Listen To A Word You've Heard (it's like big sisterly advice for when you start college *g*)

I've been a fool ( ... )

Where you lead by carole King
If you're out on the road
Feeling lonely and so cold
All you have to do is call my name
And I'll be there on the next train

Breathe Me By Sia
Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

On The Radio by Regina Spektor
No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood
And walking arm in arm
You hope it don't get harmed
But even if it does
You'll just do it all again

Friends will be friends by Queen
Friends will be friends, When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends, When you're through with life, and all hope is lost
Hold out your hands because friends will be friends, right till the end

Plenty of vision in mind.

But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know
That you control where you go
You can steer
* Missy Higgins - Steer (live version on youtube)

This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath
* Regina Spektor - On The Radio (live version on youtube)

I will crawl,
there's things that aren't worth giving up, I know,
but I wont let this get me
I will fight
you live the life you're given with the storms outside,
and some days all I do is watch the sky
* Something Corporate - Watch The Sky (on youtube)

So she cried, "one day I'll be beautiful and one day you'll love me."
She said, "one day you'll love me,"
But I, I already did.
* Umbrellas - June, Summer and Rose

And when Paul ( ... )

Like Branches in a Storm
an ami LOVEmix

001. "Knock Knock" by Lenka ;

When life has locked me out
I turn to you
So open the door
'Cause you're what I need right now, it's true...
Nothing works like you

002. "The Way I Am" by Ingrid Michaelson ;

If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I'd find a match.

003. "Goodnight and Go" by Imogen Heap ;

Why'd you have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you.
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well.

004. "Last Thing On Your Mind" by Lights ;

Sing the last thing on your mind,
The last word on your breath.
I'll be the one to keep you,
I'll keep you at your best.

005. "Sunday Morning" by Maroon 5 ;

You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you
That someday it would lead me back to you
