Gimme Some Lovin'
Hey everyone, back again... and with music goodiness! I've been in a real House/Cuddy mood lately, and decided to make a fanmix for the pair. The songs are supposed to represent their feelings for one another: their anger, frustration, love, admiration, regret, sadness, happiness, etc.
There's no particular order to the songs, which I did on purpose... because like their relationship, it's always in flux. One minute they're laughing together, the next they're at each other's throats!
Anyway, the songs also delve into the idea that they've had a prior relationship/friendship, going all the way back to their college years, so the songs are supposed to represent the feelings and memories of those days, as well as maybe their hope for a future relationship. There's just a touch of angstiness, but it's mostly uplifting and hopeful. Below is a montage of some of the lyrics to wet your tastebuds to...
"Hero/Heroine" Boys Like Girls
Got a closet filled up to the brim
With the ghosts of my past and the skeletons
And I don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie
You caught me off guard
Now I'm running and screaming
I feel like a hero and you are my heroine
Do you know that your love is the sweetest sin?
"Let Me Go In" Quietdrive
I've talked to her a thousand times before
But this time she fell to pieces
But I won't insist upon telling the truth
I've always thought guys like me
Would be obvious.
"Feels Like Tonight" Chris Daughtry
And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight
Tonight.
"Damn Regret" Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Damn regret, I’ll try to forget
Don’t worry about me
‘Cos I’m real fine
Cast my line
To see what’s behind
Did you think you persuaded me to let you go?
"Don't Move" Butch Walker
So baby don't move at all
Cause you're about to break my fall
Stay where you are, staring at the stars
Don't ever move at all.
"Gimme A Chance" Plain White T's
Why don't you open up your eyes?
These are more than passing glances
Why don't you say what's on your mind?
Cause I'm taking all the chances.
"I Lie Awake" Quietdrive
I lie awake because I'm scared
I'm not as fake as you once heard
But we'll lay down now making sure we
Put these words between us.
"The Minstrel's Prayer" Cartel
And all these stupid silly songs
Keep trying to catch your ear
I'm trying desperately
It's just so hard to persevere
And even if you listened
I never had much to say
Cause it's the same old song
I've written for the day.
"Best Thing You Never Had" Butch Walker
When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had.
"On Top Of The World" Boys Like Girls
My heart is empty without you
Sometimes you don't know what you do
And I need you tonight
I'll fall asleep and it's alright
Close my eyes and I'll be by your side.
"Pop Destroyed The Scene" Rookie Of The Year
One two three four five six seven calls to her cell phone
Without a good reply
Seven six five four three two one times
She picked up the phone and screamed,
"I wish you would die!"
Screamed
"why why why, do you call me all the time?"
Screamed
"Why why why do you meddle in my life?"
I said "I tried to be the one
And I tried to be your friend
But you up and left me screaming in the end."
"Used To" Chris Daughtry
We used to have this figured out
We used to breathe without a doubt
The nights were clearer for the first time that I'd see
We used to have this under control
We never thought we used to know
At least there's you
And at least there's me
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back?
To how it used to be.
"Best Mistake" Jamison Parker
I chronicled the days you made me want to live
Memorize the way that it felt and then I turned it into this kiss
Tonight I’m wearing my best smile and hope to make me worth your while
I’ll be the best mistake you’ll ever make.
"Sober" Butch Walker
Didn't know, that time could move so slow,
When you've got nowhere to go, the silence is so deafening
Waking up, on the wrong side of your mind
How could I have been so blind, to see I'm losing everything?
"Sign Of Her Glory" Rookie Of The Year
Is this what you wanted?
(Alone, alone)
Holding your knees to your head at night
(Alone, alone)
Breathe your last waking breath with your fingertips by your side
Is this what you wanted?
"A Lonely September" Plain White T's
Well I didn't mean for this to go as far as it did
And I didn't mean to get so close and share what we did
And I didn't mean to fall in love, but I did
And you didn't mean to love me back, but I know you did.
"Enjoy This Drive" Rookie Of The Year
You're a little faster than you were before
A little better than you already were
So when the lights go down, don't be shy
Let's give this one last try
This is one from me to you.
"Rush Together" Quietdrive
They grew up in the same old town
Never knowing the other was around
Read from the same damn books
Never gave each other looks
But one day the sun will shine
I know
For their eyes have told me so.
"Guardian Angel" Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
When I see your smile
Tears run down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one.
