That meme...random thoughts
I can never do memes because picking out 5 of this or 5 of that actually stresses me out, because I have an obsessive personality (I know, you're all shocked). So I've taken that 5 favorite songs meme and renamed it the "5 songs I'm very much into listening to right now" meme. It would be impossible to pick just FIVE all time faves. My theory is that your songs shift constantly. I have songs I've come back to throughout my life, I have new songs I pick up, and so on... So here goes:
1."Until the End of the World", U2. This one may qualify as one of my favorites ever, because I keep coming back to it.
"In waves of regret, waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You, you'd said you'd wait until the end of the world."
Those lyrics get me every time I hear them.
2. "Teardrop", Massive Attack. Words cannot describe how cool and hypnotic this song is. Indeed, my world is richer because of MA, and I highly recommend the album this song is from, Mezzanine.
3. "Ancients", Gary Numan. From the "Cartharsis" mix sent to me by mogigraphia. It is indeed powerful and carthartic, at least to me. It sucks me in.
4. "Plainsong", The Cure. This is another song I revisit..I find it poignant and haunting. It crashes over me.
5. "Solitary" VNV Nation. I don't know, I just love them and this is one song I love right now.
In other news, my husband failed to understand why I had a deep need to listen to "Dancing Queen" by ABBA the other day. No taste. Really. And new Coldplay album tomorrow!!!
Final thought for the evening...I saw a bumper sticker today that read:"I love my country...but I think it's time we started seeing other people." Says it all, really.
