• IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Please read THIS THREAD about a rebrand for SF.

A Song a Day

There's just something about the mood of this song that just makes me feel like life is worth it. It's a very spiritual and peaceful song to me. I've listened to it before I've had to go do something that I don't want to, and somehow I feel a lot more ready and prepared after giving this a listen. I don't know, the feelings that I get just can't really be translated into words all that well. I hope it makes sense. There's also only one line repeated throughout the whole song, so if you're wondering why there's only one line of lyrics that would be why.

The Sparrow
- Mastodon

Pursue happiness with diligence.
 
Got one for today....not a very good day.


Brad Paisley - A Man don't have to die

Well he yelled out from the back row
look here preacher man
We all know you're new here
but you need to understand
It don't really scare us
when you yell and shake your fist
You see we already know that hell exists

Its six months short of thirty years
when the boss man lays you off
No thinking you no pair of shoes no shiny new gold watch
Its payments that you cant make on a house you cant sell
See a man don't have to die to go to hell
No you don't have to die to go to hell

So tell us bout them angels and how they fly around and sing
Tell us how to get there cause we all want to be
Resting in the arms of Jesus no shame or pain or tears
There's hell enough to go around down here

Its a place out by the airport
where the girls dance just for you
And all you feel is drunk and broke and lonely when their through
Its waking up with nothing but that stale tobacco smell
See a man don't have to die to go to hell
Nah you don't have to die to go to hell

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh

Its every other weekend and Wednesdays with your kid
And knowing that he'll hate you when he finds out what you did
'Cause you'd all still be together if you loved his momma well
There ain't no end to the stories we could tell
Yeah a man don't have to die to go to hell
So tell us bout them angels how they fly around and sing

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh

I feel so awful today mentally and physically. So here is a song that has nothing to do with those feelings. Odd thing is I have never really danced... Maybe if I learned a dance I would be happier or at least more cool.


Yo Ninja Brian, you see that high schooler over there getting pushed around?
This looks like a job for the Cool Patrol!

Hey Kid! (Yo!) You're getting picked on in school
The other boys! (Huh!)! They say you just ain't cool
Well that's bullshit! (Yeah!) We're gonna teach you the rules
Those motherfuckers ain't gonna bother you no more

We are the bad boys (Oh!) from the tough side of town
We are the Cool Patrol (Woo!) we'll turn your life around
Those bullies are shit their ass is done for now
We're gonna show you how! So fuckin' listen y'all! First…

You put your hands in the air
And you jump off the ground
And then you take that funky butt and you shake it all around
And lightly jog in place and then crank it up to a prance
This is the cool patrol dance

Now put your hands in your pockets
And take them right back out
Then spin around in a circle and make an animal sound (moo)
Then glide into the sprinkler like you're gonna water the plants
This is the cool patrol dance

Whee!

You get all that, kid?
That wasn't actually very helpful
That was just like an instruction of death
Hell, yeah!

Motherfuckin' bullies better watch their ass
You're sending all them shits a message there's a new king in class
When they see you they're gonna freak out and piss their pants
They are your bitches! They are your bitches because...

You put your hands in the air
And then stick out your rear end
And then you wiggle it real hard and you hug your closest friend
And then you wildly remove your clothes and tear away pants
This is the cool patrol dance

Now rub the peanut butter on you
From your head to your feet
And cover up your nudity with different cheeses and meats
Then slap a camel because this could be your only chance
This is the cool patrol dance

Cool break!
Alright!
This is cool!
[coughs] Excuse me.
Hey, I have an idea!
Let's kick it!

You put your hands in the air
And grab a bird from the sky
And eat it whole so that you may absorb its power of flight
Now you can also dive bomb fish because your vision's enhanced
This is the cool patrol dance

You're basically a superhero now
So throw some cars
Then rub your magnum thighs together and set fire to Mars
Now harness all your sexy fury in a victory stance
This is the cool patrol dance!

[Danny Sexbang]: Your training is complete! Now go show those fuckers who's boss!
[Kid]: Okay! Hey guys! Listen up! You put your hands in-
[Danny Sexbang]: Oh, god! He might.. He might actually be dead.
 
Dancing is a matter of perspective. Headbanging counts as dancing. *hug

If you need someone to talk, my PN box is always open.

Today was a better day. Slept most of it. And I'm broke as fuck, but next month is bonus month so yeah. Mood is somewhat ok, so today we gonna get a happy song. Once damn youtube stops showing me Internal Server Error 500....sooo...let's see what we have here.

Yeah, Today we get Chicken Attack. Because it is hilarious and made me laugh.


lyrics are in the video, can't find them.
 
The music video is a story all on it's own. I really love it! I've seen people cosplay some of the characters in it too. Although the story is sad and somewhat morbid, the upbeat and catchy song helps counter that. I tried to condense the lyrics that I found for simplicity's sake, so if I messed up, well... my bad. :D

Ghost – Mystery Skulls


'Cause the world might do me in
It's alright 'cause I'm with friends
Guess I'm giving up again
It doesn't matter
(Ooh ooh ooh)

Had me feeling like a ghost
And that's what I hate the most
Guess I'm giving up again
This time

This time I might just disappear
Ah yeah
(Woah Oooh oh oh)

This time I might just dis-
(Mo mo mo mo moah, mo mo mo mo moah)
AH YEAH
(Mo mo mo mo moah, oooh)

This time I might just disappear
(Woah oooh oh oh)

This time I might just dis-
(Mo mo mo mo moah, mo mo mo mo moah)
AH YEAH
(Mo mo mo mo moah)

Try and hear me, then I'm done
'Cause I might just say this once
Seen this play out in my dream
It doesn't matter

Tired of giving up the ghost
Fuck, it's you I hate the most
Maybe there's no guarantee
It doesn't matter

This time I might just disappear
Ah yeah
(Woah oooh oh oh)

[x 2]
This time I might just dis-
(Mo mo mo mo moah, mo mo mo mo moah)
AH YEAH
(Mo mo mo mo mo, oooh)
This time I might just disappear
(Woah oooh oh oh)

[x 3]
This time I might just dis-
(Mo mo mo mo moah, mo mo mo mo moah)
Ah yeah
(Mo mo mo mo mo, oooh)
This time I might just disappear
Ah yeah
(Woah oooh oh oh)

This time I might just dis-
(Mo mo mo mo moah, mo mo mo mo moah)
AH YEAH
(Mo mo mo mo mo)

This is awesome! It reminds me so much of when I was younger and playing video games. In the Legend of Zelda, The Ocarina of Time, if you hurt the chickens in the game and piss them off enough, eventually you will be hunted down by the 'chicken mafia.'
I'm not going to embed the video, for the sake of letting the songs run the show instead of random media.

All the lyrics site only have half of the lyrics.. what the hell? Anyways there are a few lyrics I can't make out for the second half so I am posting half the lyrics on this one. @Snake on the Moon I think you might dig this song. and the video is very cute :)


Looking out at a city so bright
Darkened, inside the eyelids
You handed over your treasures
Like they hadn’t even become yours yet
Whispering out, “Why do I..”
...and, “How has it come to this?”
A moment’s of interaction
Sanctified by a wish
But the ringing is calling me out
The greatest distraction
I’ll give away all of it
Through emotional reaction
I am made of time
And in that time I concentrate it
Making sounds of what’s in my mind
Nothing can really explain it
It’s the wonderkind...
It’s a wonderkind...
 

Miracle of Sound - My Shooting Star

Just another no-one
Keep the family sound
Like a comet we run
By her gravity bound

In the big black empty sea
She is always there with me
Keeps me sheltered, keeps me free
She is always there with me

Through the silent we go
Yeah she’s the shiniest sight
Such a beautiful glow
Little light in the night

In the big black empty sea
She is always there with me
Keeps me sheltered, keeps me free
She is always there with me

Oh don’t dry the rain my shooting star
Steer me when I aim to misbehave
Oh don’t dry the rain my shooting star
Wash away the leaves upon our graves

Wash it away

Oh she’s my shooting star
Carried me so far
Yeah the she’s the shiniest sight
My little light in the night

Another one that I couldn't find lyrics for. So I typed them! Pretty sure that I have them right, hopefully it works out.

Smoke and Mirrors
– Sean Lennon


Smoke and Mirrors

I know what you want
It’s easy to see
I know what you need it isn’t me
I’m different than you dreamed
Things are not as they seem
Not as they appear to us
It’s all smoke and mirrors
And down by the gate
Our enemies wait
Let’s make our escape before it’s too late
I know this isn’t what we planned
But try to understand
If you get the shivers
It’s all smoke and mirrors.

La La la la la la

The jokers are wild
Hopeless as a child
So who is the man behind the mask
I know you shouldn’t have to ask

And as we disappear
Can anyone hear us?
It’s all smoke and mirrors​

I love the work you put in @Snake on the Moon :)

Now for the lovely Molly Nilsson with those sad songs she does so well.


I'm always dreaming I could run away,
as long as I remember, it's been that way
There's nothing for me happening here
or maybe there is, maybe I'm running out of fear
Or maybe life's only just begun, when you're on the run

I go out each night, expecting more of the world
something new and exciting,
something I've never heard
But they want you to grow up,
so that you can have their babies
Is there nothing else out there,
waiting for us maybe? Some girls would just rather have fun
and be on the run
On the run

Something tells me I'll be better off if I stay in my mind
It's like everyone round here
have their watches set to Mountain time
Their perfect lives in paradise
was never meant for me
Fuck it, I think I'd rather be
on the run

I'll go out each night,
expecting more of the world
something new and exciting,
something I've never heard
Let them grow their beards and talk careers,
but all their words have lost their meaning
I'd never wanna do what they expect me to
but something entirely new
Something entirely new

One for todays mood. Great stress relief.


Hatebreed - Destroy Everything

A new life begins!
Destroy everything(x3)
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything(x3)
Decimate what threatens me

Cleanse this world with flame
End this, cleanse this
Rebuild and start again
Obliterate what makes us weak

End this and embrace the destruction
End this to embrace new life (new life)

Even an empty threat deserves a response you won't soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won't soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect

Destroy everything(x3)
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything(x3)
Decimate what threatens me

Cleanse this world with flame
End this, cleanse this
Rebuild and start again
Obliterate what makes us weak

End this and embrace the destruction
End this to embrace new life (new life)
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won't soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect
Even an empty threat deserves a response you won't soon forget
I must destroy everything that tries to infect

A new life begins
Destroy everything(x2)
Obliterate what makes us weak
Destroy everything(x3)
Decimate what threatens me

Destroy everything(x3)
So a new life can begin
Destroy everything(x3)
Rebuild and start again, again
 
btw, just wanted to say, thanks ghosTea and Snake on the Moon that you are keeping this thread alive. I love music, and looking through my library to find a song that fits is fun as hell. I enjoy this thread, and the music I find here. So yeah, thanks.
 
Somehow at work today, the conversation about Jackalopes started. I then remembered about these guys, I used to listen to them a long time ago. Thought that it would be fun to visit the vault and hunt down the music!

Nothing Nowhere – Jakalope

Oh...

I'm chasing defeat
Self created- misery
Where will this end
Where did it begin
I won't lie down
I'm already- down
I rest my step and fall
Into the hole

[Chorus]
I've closed my eyes
Not even the start
To rest my head- so far
Nothing, nowhere but emptiness

Oh...

Tears of dust burn me
I'm so tired- and weary
I've put my feet down
Firmly- on the ground
There's no way to overcome
What I've- done
I've missed my step and lost all control

[Chorus]

Oh, oh​

Had dreams of my ex and woke up crying. :( So here is some old fashioned crooning. One of my favorite from that era.


I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say "Hello"
Aw you wished me well, you couldn't tell

That I'd been crying over you, crying over you
Then you said "so long". left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying, crying crying
It's hard to understand but the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you but it's true, so true
I love you even more than I did before but darling what can I do
For you don't love me and I'll always be

Crying over you, crying over you
Yes, now you're gone and from this moment on
I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying
Yeah crying, crying, over you
