First Fanmix.
Soak Up The Sun
(Before It Goes Out On Me)
Sister Grimm Erin’s First Fan Mix
1. Always On Your Side (Sheryl Crow and Sting- Duet)
Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
But your demons and your angels reappeared
Leavin' all the traces of the man you thought you'd be
Leavin' me with no place left to go from here
Leavin' me so many questions all these years
But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder, all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No it isn't how it's really meant to be...
2. Brown Eyed Girl (Van Morrison)
Hey where did we go,
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow,
Playin' a new game,
Laughing and a running hey, hey
Skipping and a jumping
In the misty morning fog with
Our hearts a thumpin' and you
My brown eyed girl,
You my brown eyed girl.
So hard to find my way,
Now that I'm all on my own.
I saw you just the other day,
My how you have grown,
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometime I'm overcome thinking 'bout
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl.
3. C’mon, C’mon (Sheryl Crow)
C’mon, c'mon c'mon
Break my heart again
For old times sake oh
You can't see your shadow
Reaching for the sky
Lay your head down on my bed
Please don't ask me why
Why am I leaving
Why don't I know
Something deep inside me
Is forcing me to go
You say you need me
But you can't tell me no
When I ask you to stop me baby
You just let me go
You just let me go-
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon-
Break my heart again,
For old times’s sake.
4. Colorblind (The Dresden Dolls)
I love you like a brother
And I love you like a child
And I love you like a lover
And I love you dumb and colorblind
And I love you like a mother
Even after all you've done
And I love you like no other
But I know
You're not the one...
And I loved you in bright orange
And in violet and in green
And I loved you in such colors
As your eyes have never ever seen
And I loved the way you acted
But your one trick pony's dead
And I loved you unprotected
But you only love in
Red, red, red, red
I know it's dark for good
I never listen when I should
You only see in black and white
So go on back to your own kind
And I'll go back to mine
(I love you like a brother
And I love you like a child
And I love you like a lover
And I love you dumb and colorblind...)
5. Edge of Seventeen (Stevie Nicks and/or Fleetwood Mac)
Well he... seemed broken hearted...
Something within him
But the moment... that I first laid...
Eyes... on... him... all alone...
On the edge of... seventeen
Just like the white winged dove...
Sings a song...
Sounds like shes singing...
Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo...
Just like the white winged dove...
Sings a song...
Sounds like shes singing...
Said ooo baby... ooo... said ooo
Well I went today... maybe I will go again...
Tomorrow
Yea yea well the music there well it was hauntingly...
Familiar
Well I see you doing...
What I try to do for me
With the words from a poet...
And a voice from a choir
And a melody... nothing else mattered.
6. Eight Easy Steps (Alanis Morissette)
How to lie to yourself and thereby to everyone else
How to keep smiling when you're thinking of killing yourself
How to numb a la holic to avoid going within
How to stay stuck in blue by blaming them for everything
7. It Only Hurts When I’m Breathing (Shania Twain)
Hope life's been good to you
since you've been gone
I'm doin' fine now--I've finally moved on
It's not so bad--I'm not that sad
I'm not surprised just how well I survived
I'm over the worst, and I feel so alive
I can't complain--I'm free again
And it only hurts when I'm breathing
My heart only breaks when it's beating
My dreams only die when I'm dreaming
So, I hold my breath--to forget...
8. Light of Some Kind (Ani diFranco)
'Cause every time I try to hold my tongue
it slips like a fish from a line
They say if you want to play
you should learn how to play dumb
I guess I can't bring myself to waste your time.
'cause we both know what I’ve been doing
I've been intentionally bad at lying
you're the only boy I ever let see through me
and I hope you believe me when I say I’m trying.
9. Narcissus (Alanis Morissette)
Dear me-show boy I know you're not really into conflict resolution
Or seeing both sides of every equation
Or having an uninterrupted conversation
And any talk of healthiness
And any talk of connectedness
And any talk of resolving this
Leaves you running for the door.
10. Ocean Avenue (Yellowcard)
There's a place off Ocean Avenue,
Where I used to sit and talk with you,
We were both 16 and it felt so right,
Sleeping all day, staying up all night,
Staying up all night.
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street,
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet,
We were both 18, and it felt so right,
Sleeping all day, staying up all night,
Staying up all night.
If I could find you now
Things would get better,
We could leave this town,
And Run forever,
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah.
There's a piece of you that's here with me,
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by,
I can make believe that you're here tonight,
That you're here tonight...
11. Peaceful Easy Feeling (The Eagles)
Cause I got a peaceful, easy feeling
and I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground
And I found out a long time ago
what a woman can do to your soul
Ah, but she can't take you anyway
You don't already know how to go
I get this feeling I may know you
As a lover and a friend
But this voice keeps whispering
In my other ear, tells me
I may never see you again.
12. That Time (Regina Spektor)
Hey remember that time I tried to save a pigeon with a broken wing
A street cat got him by morning and I had to bury pieces of his body in my building's playground
I thought I was going to be sick, I thought I was going to be sick
Hey remember that time when you od'ed
Hey remember that other time when you od'ed for the second time...
13. This Grudge (Alanis Morissette)
Maybe as I cut the cord
Veils will lift from my eyes
Maybe as I lay this to rest
Dead weight off my shoulders will rise
Here I sit
Much determined
Ever ill-equipped
To draw this curtain
How this has entertained
Validated
And has served me well
Ever the victim
But who's done whining now?
Who's ready to put down
This load I've carried longer than I had cared to remember
I wanna be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I wanna forgive for the both of us.
14. You Were Meant For Me (Jewel)
I called my momma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk
So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken or people being used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
'Cause it was happy and I was sad
It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause
Dreams last for so long
Even after you're gone
I know you love me
And soon you will see
You were meant for me
And I was meant for you.
I go about my business, I'm doing fine.
Besides what would I say if I had you on the line?
Same old story, not much to say
Hearts are broken, everyday.
Jack and Sandra
Because sometimes, ordinary tragedy is the most tragic.
