A Song a Day

[Citizen Insane]

Rauelsson - Hourglass 1

Taken from a music review site (igloomag):
“Hourglass 1” melds together the string trio of Anna Schott (violin), Amanda Lawrence (viola) and Skip vonKuske (on the ever fashionable cello) with panoramic synth washes and gently stirs them into an introspective day-dream that finally clears to reveal lone piano and the hushed tones and whispered words of Laurel Simmons.

The album: "Rauelsson - Vora" is on a label called "Sonic Pieces".

The thing I feel with music like this is, I have to allow myself to feel and experience a new range of emotions - It's not music everyone will enjoy - one could grab a few buzzwords like "pretentious", but that doesn't help their cause. Music has so many different functions, it's not like I would listen to this song while doing fitness. :p
There's other music for that (just to give an example on this idea).
This music is quite powerful in the right setting and context, in my experience.

Been a shit day all in all, so I needed some fucked up creepy music....lyrics are in the video.

This song reminds me of my Aunt Ann's funeral. She made all the arrangements herself. Lived to be 85. She was an amazing irish woman (and liked to party) Here's to you, Aunt Annie! Love and miss you.

Lets be friends please..

You're so pretty
And I missed you all the time
Do the Bambi
Come back and be mine

I was just laying around
Night and day, dreaming of you
I felt so sad and down
Without you

I will not do you wrong
Anymore I promise
You've been gone so long
Let's be friends, please

You broke my heart in two
I didn't know what to do
But after all these tears
Now I know it clear

B.A.M.B.I.D.O.
Do the Bambi...

I missed you so much
Only waiting for you
So young and so cruel
You broke my heart in two

I didn't know where you were
I was here like in prison
Now I'm a nervous wreck
So come and calm me down

I'll be a gentle girl
No lies anymore
No games, no bad words
I'll be like never before

You broke my heart in two
I didn't know what to do
But after all these tears
Now I know it clear

B.A.M.B.I.D.O.
Do the Bambi...

You're so pretty
And I missed you all the time
Do the Bambi

I felt so sad and down
Without you

I will not do you wrong...

You broke my heart in two...

B.A.M.B.I.D.O.
Do the Bambi...

Somewhere along the way My hopefulness turned to sadness
Somewhere along the way My sadness turned to bitterness
Somewhere along the way My bitterness turned to anger
Somewhere along the way My anger turned to vengeance
And the ones that I made pay Were never the ones who deserved it.
And the ones who deserved it They'll never understand it.
Yes, I know I'm going to hell in a purple basket
Least I'll be in another world While you're pissing on my casket

How could you be (oh-oh-ohh)
So perfect for me (oh-oh-ohh)
Why can't you ignore (oh-oh-ohh)
The things I did before (oh-oh-ohh)

Somewhere along the way exacting vengeance gave excitement
Somewhere along the way that excitement turned to pleasure
Somewhere along the way that pleasure turned to madness
Sooner or later that kind of madness turns into pain
And the ones that I made pay were never the ones who deserved it
Those who helped me along the way I smacked them as I thanked them
Yes I know I'm going to hell in a leather jacket
Least I'll be in another world while you're pissing on my casket
And all that I can do is sing a song of faded glory
And all you got to do Sit there look pretty and make 'em horny
Together we sing songs and tell exaggerated stories About the way we feel today and tonight and in the morning

How could you be (oh-oh-ohh)
So perfect for me (oh-oh-ohh)
Why can't you ignore (oh-oh-ohh)
The things I did before (oh-oh-ohh)

Take all your fears pretend they're all true
Take all your plans
Pretend they fell through
But that's what it's like (oh-oh-ohh)
That's what it's like for most people in this world the rich or the poor (oh oh ohh)
Muslims or Jews (oh-oh-ohh)
The roles are reversed (oh-oh-ohh)
Opinions are doomed (oh-oh-ohh)
That's all I'm gonna say now before they come knockin' on my door now

I'm very impressed with this music video. The animation is incredibly smooth! Just makes a fun song even better.

Each and every day
Hiding from the sunshine
Wandering in the shade
Not too old, not too young
Every night again
Dancing with the moonlight
Somewhere far away
I can hear your call…

I'm out of my head
Of my heart and my mind
Cause you can run but you can't hide
I'm gonna make you mine

Out of my head
Of my heart and my mind
Cause I can feel how your flesh now
Is crying out for more

Ain't no fairytale
What I see in your eyes
Awaiting your mistake
Not too close, not too far
Sneaking in the pain
Every truth becomes lie
I won't trust myself
Once I hear your call…

I'm out of my head
Of my heart and my mind
Cause you can run but you can't hide
I'm gonna make you mine

Out of my head
Of my heart and my mind
Cause I can feel how your flesh now
Is crying out for more

I've been pretty down today. This is a good song for days like this.

 

[Magalee]

Here's a sad one and this guy sings with sooooo much passion.

"Trenches"

No time to hide
I'm alive on the inside
Making up my mind on the front lines
Will I survive, will I survive another day?

This great divide
Side by side on the inside
Making up our minds on the front lines
Never again, never again will I be denied

'Cause here I come [3x]
Here I come

I've waited all my life to get out of the trenches
I'm ready to fight for what I believe you can steal from me
I won't take this
Gonna fill these trenches

And stand up
Wake up,
I won't give up
'Cause here I come, here I come

Back and forth,
Stuck in a hole, damage control
Digging for rhymes on a secondhand cell phone
Will I survive, will I survive another year?

Still month to month
Paying my dues on the inside
Making up my mind on the outside
Never again, never again will I be denied

'Cause here I come [3x]
Here I come

I've waited all my life to get out of the trenches
I'm ready to fight for what I believe you can steal from me
I won't take this
Gonna fill these trenches

And stand up
Wake up,
I won't give up
'Cause here I come, here I come

'Cause here I come, here I come [2x]

I've waited all my life to get out of the trenches
I'm ready to fight for what I believe you can steal from me
I won't take this
Gonna fill these trenches

And stand up
Wake up,
I won't give up
'Cause here I come, here I come

Stand up
Wake up
I won't give up
'Cause here I come, here I come

I'm in the mood for some classics today....

Killswitch Engage - Holy Diver

Yeah, yeah

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh, what's becoming of me?

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh, don't you see what I mean?

Gotta get away
Holy Diver
YEAH
(YEAH)

Shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you - look out!

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh, we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away - get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel - yeah!

Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid

Jump, Jump
Jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen - yeah!

(Holy Diver...)
Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh, what's becoming of me? - No? Yeah!

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh, don't you see what I mean?

Gotta get away, get away (get away!)
Gotta get away, get away - yeah, yeah

Holy Diver, sole survivor
Your heart is clean
Yeah, Holy Diver (Holy diver)
Holy Diver (Holy Diver)

You're caught in the middle coming after you, Holy Diver

Oh, Holy Diver (Holy Diver)
Get away, get away, get away - come on!

When I grow up
I want to be a forester
Run through the moss on high heels
That's what I'll do
Throwing out boomerang
Waiting for it to come back to me

When I grow up
I want to live near the sea
Crab claws and bottles of rum
That's what I'll have
Staring at the seashell
Waiting for it to embrace me

I put my soul in what I do
Last night I drew a funny man
With dark eyes and a hanging tongue
It goes way bad
I never liked a sad look
From someone who wants to be loved by you

I'm very good with plants
When my friends are away
They let me keep the soil moist
On the seventh day I rest
For a minute or two
Then back on my feet and cry for you

You've got cucumbers on your eyes
Too much time spent on nothing
Waiting for a moment to arise
The face in the ceiling
And arms too long
I wait for him to catch me

Waiting for you to embrace me

On your way out, turn the lights out
Take your supermodels and your broken beer bottles
I don't care, party anywhere
I'm broke man, possibly beyond repair

This is the best, this is the best,
My head is such a fucking mess
This is the best, crack house arrest,
My head's a mess

Well I woke up on a Monday
I've been feeling pretty wired
I've been wide awake since Wednesday
I was feeling so inspired
By the state of my own execution
Drop me 'cause I can't let go

On my way down, kill the lights now
Gimme Calcium and put me in the lost and found
I don't care, throw me anywhere
I'm cool man, possibly beyond repair

This is the best, this is the best,
My head is such a fucking mess
This is the best, crack house arrest,
My head's a mess

Well I woke up on a Monday
I've been feeling pretty wired
I've been wide awake since Wednesday
I was feeling so inspired
By the state of my own execution
Drop me 'cause I can't let go

On my way up, wish me good luck
Mission control I'm crushing like a monster truck
I should care, but I don't care
I fucking don't care, don't care

Well I woke up on a Monday
I've been feeling pretty wired
I've been wide awake since Wednesday
I was feeling so inspired
By the state of my own execution
Drop me 'cause I can't let go

This is the best, this is the best
Probably 'cause I can't let go
This is the best, this is the best
Stop me 'cause I can't say no

"Losing My Religion"

Oh life, it's bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour
I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this, the hint of the century
Consider this, the slip
That brought me to my knees, failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
Now I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, why try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream


How the hell did i get here? (that's me not the lyrics lol)
