Still reeling from the excitement of the 24 trailer!! Is this next season going to be awesome or what? I love how all the websites that I frequent are now coming alive with the 24 goodness. Woot for a second wind of inspiration!! Tonight's shows were interesting: Dancing with the Stars had their elimination results and Jerry Springer went home. It was sad but expected. I'm going to miss the Jerrmeister. He was so darn entertaining and could dance a step or two. Who doesn't love Jerry after watching Dancing with the Stars? I taped Lost and The Nine so more on that later. For now, I'm going to vote Emmit Smith all the way. The man has style when he dances and can do both Ballroom and Latin without looking boringly perfect. I heart Emmit!
So I've been listening to my Bryan Adams CD called The Best of Me while driving to work and have found lots of good Martha/Charles songs. Therefore, here are two I really like for the couple. This first one is my idealized version of their relationship (again!!) where Charles says he's coming back to her even though he knows he has hurt her in the past. I really like how the singer says he'll give it up all to return to the woman he loves. I only wish Charles would do the same...then again I did write a story where he DID give up the presidency to take care of Martha *grin*
ALL I WANT IS YOU
by Bryan Adams
Dont want diamonds dont want gold
Dont want fashion dont wanna be cool
Dont wanna hustle just to get thru
When it all comes down babe
All I want is you
Dont wanna argue dont wanna fight
Dont want no politics babe all thru the night
I told ya before-gonna tell ya once more
For the last time baby open up your door
All I want is you all I want is you
Not any old girl will do
All I want is you
If ya dont need love ya gotta be nuts
The heaviest metal always rusts
Just you and me babe hangin tough
Its gotta be its gonna be its gotta be love or bust!
Dont need a doctor dont need a nurse
Dont need a prescription babe
Only make me feel worse
Dont need a license dont need insurance
Dont need a ticket where were goin babe
You got my assurance ya
I told ya before-gonna tell ya once more
For the last time baby open up your door
All I want is you all I want is you
Not any old girl will do
All I want is you
If ya dont need love ya gotta be nuts
The heaviest metal always rusts
Just you and me babe hangin tough
Its gotta be its gonna be its gotta be love or bust!
The next song has a similar theme...I guess I'm in a forgiveness mood. Basically the person singing realizes the mistake he's made and is asking for the girl to forgive him. He knows he's missed up and just wants to be near her again. So sad to see but beautiful to hear.
COMING HOME
by Bryan Adams
All those nights I’ve spent alone,
Uninspired, so tired and wasted.
There’s lots of times I’d have telephoned,
I couldn’t find the words to say,
I’m coming home,
Lord I’m coming home
I’ll make it short,
I’ll make it sweet,
Make it up to you and me.
I’m not the same guy I used to be,
What can I do to make you believe,
I’m coming home,
Oh I’m coming home.
I’m coming home,
Yeah I’m coming home.
Only seems like yesterday,
You and I were sayin’ goodbye,
Now I’m just a few miles away
Gonna see you tonight.
I’ve been alone and I live the pain,
Reach for you in desperation.
I was wrong, I’ll take the blame,
I need you back now I just can’t wait,
I’m coming home
Yeah I’m coming home.
Coming home,
I’m just coming, coming,
Waiting it out.
I’m just coming home.
I know I've done alot of things wrong...but what I couldn't live with...is if I've hurt you...
