an inspiring playlist
Now that I've finished my story "The Opposite of Logic," I wanted to share the playlist of songs that were on constant repeat for the whole three weeks I was writing the story. With the help of the extremely talented angeleyesjg24 who created the gorgeous soundtrack cover, I put a soundtrack together.
Sting, Mad About You
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you
Bic Runga, Sway
And here I go, losing my control
My everything's turned inside, instilling so much doubt
My head is battling with my heart, my logic has been torn apart
Alex Murdoch, Orange Sky
In your love,
My salvation lies in your love.
Kelly Clarkson, Before Your Love
I'd never felt
Before your touch
I'd never needed anyone
To make me feel alive
But then again,
I wasn't really livin'
I'd never lived
Before your love
Alanis Morrisette, Everything
I'm the funniest woman you've ever known.
I am the dullest woman you've ever known.
I'm the most gorgeous woman you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as everything as I am sometimes.
UB40, I Can't Help Falling in Love with You
Wise men say only fools rush in
but I can't help falling in love with you
Take my hand, take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Alison Krauss, Baby Mine
From your head down to your toes,
you're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
sweet as can be,
baby of mine.
Dusty Springfield, You Don't Have to Say You Love Me
You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me
I can't help but love you
But believe me
I'll never tie you down
Elvis Costello, She
She may be the reason I survive
The why and wherefore I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and ready years
Me, I'll take her laughter and tears
And make them all my souveniers
For where she goes I've got to be
The meaning of my life is she
Sting, Desert Rose
This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothing's as it seems
Sting, Mad About You
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you
Bic Runga, Sway
And here I go, losing my control
My everything's turned inside, instilling so much doubt
My head is battling with my heart, my logic has been torn apart
