Barenaked Ladies - It’s All Been Done
I met you, before the fall of Rome and I bet you to let me take you home
You were wrong, I was right you said good-bye, I said good night
It's all been done, it's all been done, it's all been done before
I knew you before the West was won
I heard you say, the past was much more fun
You go your way, I'll go mine but I'll see you next time
It's all been done, It's all been done. It's all been done before
If I put my fingers here and if I say I love you dear
And if I play the same the three chords will you just yawn and say ‘Uh...I hate it.’?
It's all been done, it's all been done. It's all been done before
Alone and bored on a thirtieth century night, will I see you on the Price is Right?
Will I cry, will I smile? As you run, down the aisle...
It's all been done. It's all been done. It's all been done before
Shania Twain - That Don’t Impress Me Much
I've known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart
But you've got being right down to an art
You think you're a genius - you drive me up the wall
You're a regular original, a know-it-all
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special, oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else
Okay, so you're a rocket scientist
That don't impress me much
So you got the brain but have you got the touch?
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much
I never knew a guy who carried a mirror in his pocket and a comb up his sleeve - just in case
And all that extra hold gel in your hair oughtta lock it - just Heaven forbid! - it should fall outta place
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special, oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else
Okay, so you're Brad Pitt - that don't impress me much
So you got the looks but have you got the touch?
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much
You're one of those guys who likes to shine his machine
You make me take off my shoes before you let me get in
I can't believe you kiss your car good night! Now c'mon baby tell me - you must be jokin' right?
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special, oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else
That don't impress me much - you think you're cool but have you got the touch?
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm on the long, cold, lonely night
That don't impress me much
Okay, so what do you think you're Elvis or something...?
That don't impress me much!
Alanis Morissette - Everything
I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you’ve never met anyone as negative as I am sometimes
I am the wisest woman you've ever met
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen and you've never met anyone
As positive as I am sometimes
You see everything, you see every part, you see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
Carole King - You’ve Got A Friend
When you're down and troubled, and you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me, and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall, all you have to do is call and I'll be there
You've got a friend
Kate Miller-Heidke - Last Day On Earth
Look down - the ground below is crumbling
Look up - the stars are all exploding
It's the last day on earth - in my dreams
It's the end of the world - and you've come back to me...in my dreams
Between the dust and the debris, there's a light surrounding you and me
It's the last day on earth - in my dreams
It's the end of the world - and you've come back to me...in my dreams
And you hold me closer than I can ever remember being held.
And I'm not afraid to sleep now, if we can stay like this until...
The Fray - Hundred
The how I can’t recall but I’m staring at what once was the wall
Separating east and west, now they meet amidst the broad daylight
So this is where you are, and this is where I am
Somewhere between unsure and a hundred
It’s hard I must confess, I’m banking on the rest to clear away
Cause we have spoken everything
Everything short of I love you
You right where you are, from right where I am
Somewhere between unsure and a hundred
Placebo - Every You Every Me
Sucker love, a box I choose, no other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse, no circumstances could excuse
Like the naked leads the blind I know I’m selfish, I’m unkind
Sucker love I always find someone to bruise and leave behind
All alone in space and time there’s nothing here but what here’s mine
Something borrowed, something blue
Every me and every you
Sunday in the Park With George - We Do Not Belong Together
Yes George! Run to your painting! Hide behind your work!
I have come to tell you I am leaving because I thought you might
care to know - foolish of me, because you care about nothing-!
I care about many things / Things. Not people. / People, too.
I cannot divide my feelings up as neatly as you...I had thought you understood...
There's nothing I can say, is there?
Yes, there is! You could tell me not to go! Say it to me. Tell me not to go!
Tall me that you're hurt, tell me you're relieved! Tell me that you're bored!
Anything, but don't assume I know. Tell me what you feel!
What I feel? You know exactly how I feel.
Why do you insist, you must hear the words...when you know
I cannot give you words? Not the ones you need.
There's nothing to say. I cannot be what you want.
What do you want?
You are complete, you are your own. We do not belong together.
You are complete, you all alone. I am unfinished, I am diminished, with or without you.
We do not belong together, and we should have belonged together
What made it so right together is what made it all wrong
No one is you, there you agree, but others will do!
No one is you and no one can be, but no one is me, no one is me!
We do not belong together. And we'll never belong-!
You have a mission, a mission to see. Now I have one too...and we
should have belonged together...I have to move on.
Pete Murray - Better Days
And I saw it coming, I saw emptiness and tragedy
And I felt like running so far away but knew I had to stay
And I know when I'm older I'll look back and still feel the pain
I know I'll be stronger and I know I'll be fine for the rest of my days
I've seen better days
Put my face in my hands get down on my knees and I pray to God
Hope he sees me through till the end.
I've seen better days.
I noticed the smallest things but I didn't notice the change
It was hot in the morning then it turned so cold, twas the end of the day
There was no condensation I just felt like I was in space
I needed my friends there I just turned around they were gone without a trace
Bobby Vinton - Mr. Lonely
Lonely. I’m Mr. Lonely. I have nobody for my own.
I’m so lonely. I’m Mr. Lonely. Wish I had someone to call on the phone.
I’ve been forgotten, yeah forgotten.
Oh how I wonder, how is it I failed?
That’s why I’m lonely, I’m Mr. Lonely.
I wish that I could go back home.
The Wombats - Let’s Dance To Joy Division
Let's dance to Joy Division, and celebrate the irony
Everything is going wrong, but we're so happy!
Let's dance to Joy Division, and raise our glass to the ceiling,
'cos this could all go so wrong, but we're so happy
Yeah we're so happy.
Lifehouse - Fairytales & Castles
He says he looks in the mirror and he can't tell anymore
Who he really is and who they believe him to be
And he says he walks a thin line between what is and what could be
And he's getting closer to something he can't understand
Cause there's a crack in his plastic crown and his throne of ice is melting
He climbed his ladder there was nothing there now it's a long way down
Cause on and on and on he goes -
dancing on the grave of what he thought was still alive
And on and on and on he goes -
dancing in mansions made of twigs and castles made of sand
DeVotchka - How It Ends
Hold your grandmother's bible to your breast. Gonna put it to the test. You wanted to be blessed.
In your heart you know it to be true - you know what you gotta do.
They all depend on you and you already know, yeah, you already know how this will end
There is no escape from the slave-catchers' songs, for all of the loved ones gone, forever's not so long
And in your soul they poked a million holes, but you never let ’em show
C'mon it's time to go
And you already know yeah, you already know how this will end
Imogen Heap - Glittering Cloud
I'm not always like this - it's something I become
A terrible weakness in my nature, in my blood
Save me, oh save me, save me from myself before I hurt somebody else again
It's all over the papers, on the TV, wagging tongues
The artist's impression looks just like me only... better
Don't blame me, don't maim me, I can't help what I am
Oh, Lord knows I've tried to
The Whitlams - (Duffy’s Song) I Will Not Go Quietly
I will not go quietly - I will not accept your rules
Gonna live with myself before I live with any of you!
And I was the best you all knew it! On the days I cared at all
You can all say I blew it you’ll be talking ‘bout me for years!
I will not go quietly - I will not behave myself!
It’s not for sake of fighting, it’s not for you or anyone else
I was my own man - can ya’ll say that?
I was my own man - can ya’ll say that?
I was my own man. Yeah I was the SHIT.
Sacred Heart School - Flame Trees
Kids out driving Saturday afternoon just pass me by
I'm just savouring familiar sights.
We share some history, this town and I
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
Try to book a room to stay tonight
Number one is to find some friends to say, "You're doing well,
after all this time you boys look just the same".
Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
Settle in to play "Do you remember so and so?"
Number three is never say her name
Who needs that sentimental rubbish, anyway?
Takes more than just a memory to make me cry.
I'm happy just to sit at a table with old friends
And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies
And I’m wondering if he’ll go or if he’ll stay?
Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field in our day?
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace, everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe she won't be around
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace, everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe he won't be around
Ben Lee - The Finger and the Moon
I walk the streets with some friends of mine, just like every time
Sit here letting time line my face, fill this empty space
I was tired, I was unsatisfied I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong
No time like the present this emptiness, kiss and a physical sickness
I'm falling in fear again
I know I'll never be here again
Michael Bublé - Just Haven’t Met You Yet
I'm not surprised, not everything lasts
I’ve broken my heart so many times, I stop keeping track.
Talk myself in, I talk myself out
I get all worked up then I let myself down.
I tried so very hard not to lose it. I came up with a million excuses.
I thought I thought of every possibility...
And I know someday that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out
And I promise you kid that I’ll give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet
I might have to wait, I’ll never give up
I guess it's half timing and the other half's luck
Wherever you are whenever it's right
You come out of nowhere and into my life
And I know that we can be so amazing
And baby your love is gonna change me
And now I can see every possibility...
Mumford & Sons - After The Storm
And I look up. I look up, on my knees and out of luck, I look up.
Night has always pushed up day, you must know life to see decay
But I won't rot, I won't rot! Not this mind and not this heart, I won't rot.
And now I cling to what I knew I saw exactly what was true - but oh no more.
That's why I hold, that's why I hold with all I have.
That's why I hold...
And I will die alone and be left there
Well I guess I'll just go home, oh God knows where
Because death is just so full and mine so small.
Well I'm scared of what's behind and what's before
And there will come a time, you'll see with no more tears
And love will not break your heart but dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see what you find there
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
(and because I just couldn’t find anywhere else in the mix for them but they were too perfect to not put in...)
The Hoosiers - Goodbye Mr A
There’s a hole in your logic, you who know all the answers
You can sigh and say magic and expect me to buy it
Goodbye Mr A, you promised you would love us but you knew too much
Goodbye Mr A, you had all the answers but no human touch
If life is subtraction your number is up / your love is a fraction it’s not any more
So busy showing me where I’m wrong you forgot to switch your feelings on
Oh oh oh, so so superior, you’re not / you love a little bit but you forgot
Goodbye Mr A, the world was full of wonder till you opened my eyes
Goodbye Mr A, wish you hadn’t blown my mind and spoiled the surprise
(and one for the fans and for the future...and because it means the mix starts and ends with The Whitlams - booyah!)
The Whitlams - Thankyou (for loving me at my worst)
I shouldn't have driven - you shouldn't have driven
But we got there, had a good time so we left the car / and the cabby was from a war zone
We were glad he was driving us home, I was gladder of some movement
You took it on, you took it on board, I said:
"Thank you, thank you, for loving me at my worst"
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?
Bought myself one of them keyboard axes
Wanted to get out and dance away from the piano
That could have been the beginning of the end if I wasn't already in the middle
The crowd was confused, and then they cheered - my career it was back on track!
I was relieved and full of love for the people, I said:
"Thank you, each and every one of you, for loving me at my worst"
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?
All you bright, and middle-aged things attending your sons and daughters
Spare a thought for me out here with the kids to hell with your bricks and mortar!
I said: "Thank you, each and every one of you, for loving me at my worst
For loving me at my worst."
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?

Barenaked Ladies - It’s All Been Done
I met you, before the fall of Rome and I bet you to let me take you home
You were wrong, I was right you said good-bye, I said good night
It's all been done, it's all been done, it's all been done before

Get over your hill and see what you find there
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
(and because I just couldn’t find anywhere else in the mix for them but they were too perfect to not put in...)
The Hoosiers - Goodbye Mr A
There’s a hole in your logic, you who know all the answers
You can sigh and say magic and expect me to buy it
Goodbye Mr A, you promised you would love us but you knew too much
Goodbye Mr A, you had all the answers but no human touch
If life is subtraction your number is up / your love is a fraction it’s not any more
So busy showing me where I’m wrong you forgot to switch your feelings on
Oh oh oh, so so superior, you’re not / you love a little bit but you forgot
Goodbye Mr A, the world was full of wonder till you opened my eyes
Goodbye Mr A, wish you hadn’t blown my mind and spoiled the surprise
(and one for the fans and for the future...and because it means the mix starts and ends with The Whitlams - booyah!)
The Whitlams - Thankyou (for loving me at my worst)
I shouldn't have driven - you shouldn't have driven
But we got there, had a good time so we left the car / and the cabby was from a war zone
We were glad he was driving us home, I was gladder of some movement
You took it on, you took it on board, I said:
"Thank you, thank you, for loving me at my worst"
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?
Bought myself one of them keyboard axes
Wanted to get out and dance away from the piano
That could have been the beginning of the end if I wasn't already in the middle
The crowd was confused, and then they cheered - my career it was back on track!
I was relieved and full of love for the people, I said:
"Thank you, each and every one of you, for loving me at my worst"
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?
All you bright, and middle-aged things attending your sons and daughters
Spare a thought for me out here with the kids to hell with your bricks and mortar!
I said: "Thank you, each and every one of you, for loving me at my worst
For loving me at my worst."
If this isn't love, it's very close - can you hear the world is waking up?
Can we be crazy for a few more years? Have I got them in me?
