Three songs I would like to share.

1) Portishead (and Moloko), 'Fun for Me'

Back when Glenn and I were set on doing our Portishead cover band, back in 2003/2004 (before he got creepy to the point where i couldn't deal with him anymore), this was the first song we were going to do. It's whimsy, silly, and very twisted.
I told Ali that I would punch Gareth David-Lloyd in the face if he ever covers this song.

2) Portishead, 'It's a Fire'

From my days in the Matrix fandom, The Construct, and a whole group of friends came together in a beautiful way. I haven't listened to this song in years, and when I finally did tonight, it almost made me cry. Really a beautiful song, not scary like some Portishead can be. It's just... light, beautiful.

3) Sarah Dooley, 'Father, Father'

Great song, and it's pretty much unknown. It reminds of staying over at someone else's house, and they live in the country, in the middle of nowhere, where you can see every star in the hemisphere, and the moon is bright and the sky is clear and there are crickets, and you're in a guest bedroom and look out the window. That's what this is like. It also reminds me of peaceful nights when I used to go camping with my girl-scout troupe.
