The thing is I like slow songs, I really do but that song is waaaay too slow. Kind of like "Invisibly Shaken" by Rodney Adkins. I do believe that he wanted on more hit off his CD before he went onto the next one that he threw a random song into the mix. That is one of my least favorites--right up there with "Better as a Memory".
yeah. that song nails so much for me it's probably an all time top ten. I can't believe you hated it, Shawn.

"This must be the end, then."-MorningLightMountain, Judas Unchained
Remember when
I was young and so were you
Time stood still.
Love was all we knew.
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried
Remember when
Remember when
we vowed the vows and walked the walk
Gave our hearts,
made the start, it was hard
We lived and learned, life threw curves
There was joy, there was hurt
Remember when
Remember when
old ones died and new were born
And life was changed,
disassembled, rearranged
We came together, fell apart
We broke each other's hearts
Remember when
Remember when
the sound of little feet was the music
We danced to week to week
Brought back the love,
we found trust
Vowed we'd never give it up
Remember when
Remember when
thirty seemed so old. Now looking back
it's just a steppin' stone
To where we are,
Where we've been
Said we'd do it all again
Remember when
Remember when
we said when we turned gray
When the children
grow up and move away
We won't be sad, we'll be glad
For all the life we've had
And we'll remember when.

Fall Out Boy - Chicago Is So Two Years Ago
This song has been on repeat, on both my computer and my MP3 player since I got back from the concert Friday. It was my third FOB concert and I was expecting to be disappointed since the first two concerts came and went without them playing this song. I had literally just finished telling my brother they would never play it at a concert when it started and my eyes got big from disbelief. I showed an unusual amount of emotion and just about died from unbridled happiness.
That moment, hearing it live, almost beat out the week I spent in Chicago itself but, well, it just couldn't beat out the geographical love of my life (almost literally my entire life at that point seeing as I had wanted to go since I was three, well before I even knew AZ was a state or what a state even was). Damn close, though. Damn close.

I love how Dolly puts so much into this song with her performance, my favorite of hers and always gets to me.You ought to go north somebody told us
Cause the air is filled with gold dust
And fortune falls like snow flakes in your hands
Now I don't recall who said it
But we'd spent our lives on credit
So we just headed out to find our promised land.
Just poor Smoky Mountains farm folk
With nothing more than high hopes
So we hitched our station wagon to a star
But our dreams all fell in on us
Cause there was no land of promise
Lord it's a struggle just keeping sight of who you are.
Oh and these northern nights are dreary
my southern heart grows weary
As I wonder how the old folks are back home
But I know that they all love me
And I know they're thinking of me
And Smoky Mountain memories keep me strong.
You know I've been thinking a whole lot lately
About what's been and what awaits me
It takes all I've got to give what life demands
Lord, You go insane if you give in to it
Life's a mill and Brother I've been through it
I'm just thankful I'm creative with my hands.
Oh and these northern nights they're dreary
These old southern eyes are teary
As I wonder how the old folks are back home
But I'll keep leaning on my Jesus
I know He'll love and guide and lead us
And Smoky Mountain memories keep me strong.
If I'll keep looking to the father
He'll keep my head above the water
While these Smoky Mountain memories keep me strong.

And the remix of I Told You So with Carrie Underwood and Randy Travis' original has been my favorite thing on country radio for the past two or three months.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ5b6ZlVhJMSuppose I called you up tonight
And told you that I love you
And suppose I said I want to come back home
And suppose I cried and said I think I finally learned my lesson
And I'm tired of spending all my time alone
If I told you that I realized you're all I ever wanted
And it's killing me to be so far away
Would you tell my that you love me too
And would we cry together
Or would you simply laugh at me and say...
I told you so, I told you so
I told you some day you'd come crawling back
And asking me to take you in
I told you so, but you had to go
Now I've found somebody new
And you will never break my heart in two again
If I got down on my knees
And told you I was yours forever
Would you get down on yours too and take my hand
Would we get that old-time feeling
Would we laugh and talk for hours
The way we did when our love first began
Would you tell me that you've missed me too
And that you've been so lonely
And you've waited for the day that I returned
And we'd live and love forever
And that I'm your one and only
Or would you say the tables finally turned
And would you say...
So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

Toma Que Toma!
♫Toma que toma que toma, Toma que toma que toma, Toma que toma que toma ta!♫
¡hÃjole! I love this song.
(That's the closest version to the one I really enjoy that I could find on youtube. I'm not sure I'd be able to find the one I like best even if I knew the group's name, though.)
----------------------
4/17 Music playlist includes:
The Five Satins - In The Still of the Night
Sunny and the Sunglows - Talk to Me
Dion & The Belmonts - I Wonder Why
The Four Tops - Baby, I Need Your Lovin'
The Temptations - Ain't Too Proud to Beg

For whatever reason, I read this like "Happy Together", and so now I'm listening/watching this again, and it's great.Remember when
I was young and so were you
Time stood still.
Love was all we knew.
You were the first, so was I
We made love and then you cried

You'll have to forgive my cultural ignorance, but is that actually a Soviet military orchestra or is that just their shtick? I mean, obviously the guys with the hair and the shoes (The Leningrad Cowboys?) aren't military, but who are the rest?For whatever reason, I read this like "Happy Together", and so now I'm listening/watching this again, and it's great.

The Leningrad Cowboys is a Finnish group spawned from a fictional band in a movie, and then became an actual group. As far as I know, the Russian guys in that video are the real Russian Red Army Choir (or what used to be called th Red Army Choir), the official Russian military choir.

Nice choice. It's an underrated album, mostly because of "Stacy's Mom" being what most people consider a one-hit wonder. I like "Hey Julie" a lot, and "Valley Winter Song," too.I've got Fountains of Wayne Welcome Interstate Managers in my cd player right now. I'm especially enjoying "Bright Future in Sales" and "Mexican Wine".[/i]
Here's a bit of trivia: the bassist for Fountains of Wayne wrote "That Thing You Do" for the film of the same name. Now impress all of your friends with that trivia.
Shell the unshellable, crawl the uncrawlible.
Row--row.
Row--row.
lately been listening to Little Sparrow alot, both Dolly's version and Cook's
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain
All ye maidens heed my warning
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend
They will vow to always love you
Swear no love but yours will do
Then they'll leave you for another
Break your little heart in two
If I were a little sparrow
O'er these mountains I would fly
I would find him, I would find him
Look into his lying eyes
I would flutter all around him
On my little sparrow wings
I would ask him, I would ask him
Why he let me love in vain
I am not a little sparrow
I am just the broken dream
Of a cold false-hearted lover
And his evil cunning scheme
All ye maidens fair and tender
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Oh the sorrow never ends

Yeah, I did know that. They also did the theme song for "Crank Yankers" on Comedy Central. Let the obscure Fountains of Wayne trivia contest begin!Nice choice.

Straight up, that's probably the worst song on that entire album, except for maybe Believe or Damn Girl.Actually, it just switched, and "Gives You Hell" is on now. Gosh, I luv that song...
I Wanna, Fallin' Apart, Breakin', Real World, Back to Me, Sunshine, and especially Another Heart Calls are incomparably better, and Mona Lisa and The Wind Blows aren't too shabby either....

Mandy Moore's new album Amanda Leigh. So far I'm liking it almost as much Wild Hope. I'm still in the midst of my listen.
you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant

JT Spangler. Jatraqueros and Hatrack satelliters should recognize him (especially the latter since I stumbled upon this link on SR). It's really good stuff, I think. "Good Morning, Baby" is a favorite currently.
Also, I apparently listened to The Fray's "You Found Me" about 40 times last night. Good video, I found out this morning; it was shot in Chicago.
