Discontent Winter Songs
I totally am taking this idea from Cat Cummins, because I like it...
Here's my playlist of winter songs you can listen to. They just kinda fit in with that despondent feeling that rolls in with the winter as everything is turning grey and white and cold. They tend to soothe my melancholy angst. lol.
DISCONTENT WINTER SONGS
1. Samson - Regina Spektor
You are my sweetest downfall. I loved you first.
2. Green Gloves - The National
Falling out of touch with all my friends are somewhere getting wasted, hope they’re staying glued together, I have arms for them.
3. Faded from the Winter - Iron & Wine
Daddy's ghost behind you. Sleeping dog beside you. You're a poem of mystery. You're the prayer inside me.
4. Skinny Love (live) - Bon Iver
I told you to be patient. I told you to be fine. I told you to be balanced. I told you to be kind. Now all your love is wasted? Then who the hell was I? Now I'm breaking at the britches and at the end of all your lines.
5. Breezy - Conor Oberst
Move your slender fingers, help me play this song. Spend another night inside this practice mansion. I love you now, I know that's all that matters. I love you now and I know that's all that matters.
6. For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti - Sufjan Stevens
I'd do anything for you.
7. I'm With You - Avril Lavigne
It's a damn cold night. Tryin' to figure out this life. Won't you take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new. I don't know who you are, but I'm with you.
8. Sleep - Eric Whitacre
Then I surrender unto sleep, where clouds of dream give second sight. What dreams may come, both dark and deep.
9. Santa Barbara (Acoustic) - Meg & Dia
I found a spot where the drunk never got to and it rocks me gently silent, silent. If I never surface then it doesn't matter. Hold my breath. It's silent, silent now.
10. Caoineadh Cu Chulainn (Lament) - Riverdance
Bagpipe instrumental.
11. The Special Two - Missy Higgins
And we will only need each other, we'll breathe together, our hands will not be taught to hold another's when we're the special two.
12. Hide and Seek - Imogen Heap
Oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung before the takeover, the sweeping insensitivity of this still life. Hide and seek. Trains and sewing machines. Blood and tears. They were here first.
13. Father & Daughter - Paul Simon
I'm gonna watch you shine, gonna watch you grow, gonna paint a sign so you'll always know - as long as one and one is two there could never be a father who loved his daughter more than I love you.
14. Messenger Bird's Song - Bright Eyes
Just nod your head if your mind's been changed. Shake it, love, if some hope remains. Just say the word and of course I'll stay. Roll your eyes and I'll go away. Just please don't leave me guessing. Just please don't keep me waiting.
15. Blood of Eden - Peter Gabriel
In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man. With the man in the woman and the woman in the man. In the blood of Eden lie the woman and the man. We wanted the the union oh the union of the woman, the woman and the man.
16. Heartbeats - Jose Gonzalez
To call for hands of above to lean on wouldn't be good enough for me, no.
17. Eyes - Rogue Wave
Missed the last train home. Birds pass by to tell me that I'm not alone. Over pushing myself to finish this part, I can handle a lot but the one thing I'm missing is in your eyes.
