In the famous words of Dr Zoidberg, "Hooray, I'm helping!"
Here's another one I haven't heard since I was in school. I'm feeling sentimental because this last week or so has marked it being ten years since I started high school. Oi, I'm feeling old.
Kiss Me Sixpence None The Richer
Kiss me out of the bearded barley Nightly, beside the green, green grass Swing, swing, swing the spinning step You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me
Kiss me down by the broken tree house Swing me upon its hanging tire Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me

holy freakin cow, nie. youre freaking me out. i JUST downloaded that yesterday whilst downloading Bittersweet Symphony. geesh. its this brainwave bit we've got going on. on replay in my head, for some odd reason, that most likely has a good reason behind it all: Vertical Horizon Everything You Want Somewhere there's speaking It's already coming in Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind You never could get it Unless you were fed it Now you're here and you don't know why But under skinned knees and the skid marks Past the places where you used to learn You howl and listen Listen and wait for the Echoes of angels who won't return He's everything you want He's everything you need He's everything inside of you That you wish you could be He says all the right things At exactly the right time But he means nothing to you And you don't know why You're waiting for someone To put you together You're waiting for someone to push you away There's always another wound to discover There's always something more you wish he'd say He's everything you want He's everything you need He's everything inside of you That you wish you could be He says all the right things At exactly the right time But he means nothing to you And you don't know why But you'll just sit tight And watch it unwind It's only what you're asking for And you'll be just fine With all of your time It's only what you're waiting for Out of the island Into the highway Past the places where you might have turned You never did notice But you still hide away The anger of angels who won't return He's everything you want He's everything you need He's everything inside of you That you wish you could be He says all the right things At exactly the right time But he means nothing to you And you don't know why I am everything you want I am everything you need I am everything inside of you That you wish you could be I say all the right things At exactly the right time But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why And I don't know why Why I don't know *sigh*

This band reminds me a lot of Nickelback. They're pretty good. Theory of a Dead Man: Santa Monica.
She fills my bed with gasoline You think I would have noticed Her mind's made up The love is gone I think someone's trying to show us a sign That even if we thought it would last The moment would pass My bones will break and my heart would give It hurts to live.
And I remember the day when you left for Santa Monica You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything And I remember the time when you left for Santa Monica And I remember the day you told me it's over
It hurts to breathe Well every time that you're not next to me Her mind's made up The girl is gone And now I'm forced to see I think I'm on my way Oh, it hurts to live today Oh and she says "Don't you wish you were dead like me?"
And I remember the day when you left for Santa Monica You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything And I remember the time when you left for Santa Monica And I remember the day you told me it's over
I wanted more than this I needed more than this I could use more than this But it just won't stop It just won't go away
I needed more than this I wanted more than this I asked for more than this But it just won't stop It just won't go away
And I remember the day when you left for Santa Monica You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything And I remember the time when you left it all behind And I remember the day you told me it's over
And I remember the day when you left for Santa Monica You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything And I remember the time when you left for Santa Monica Yeah, I remember the day you told me it's over

Argh, I saw that Zicdeh, and I was reminded of this song. How freaking old am I?!
Santa Monica Savage Garden
In Santa Monica, in the wintertime, The lazy streets so undemanding I walk into the crowd In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from The coolest places on the promenade Where people dress just so Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn it's there I sit and wonder what am I doing here
But on the telephone line I am anyone I am anything I want to be. I could be a super model or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?
In Santa Monica, all the people got modern names Like Jake or Mandy And modern bodies too In Santa Monica, on the boulevard, You'll have to dodge those in-line skaters Or they'll knock you down I never felt so lonely, Never felt so out of place I never wanted something more than this
But on the telephone line I am anyone I am anything I want to be I could be a super model or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference On the telephone line, I am any height I am any age I want to be I could be a caped crusader, or space invader And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?
Or would you?

Half the World Rush
Half the world hates What half the world does every day Half the world waits While half gets on with it anyway
Half the world lives Half the world makes Half the world gives While the other half takes
Half the world is Half the world was Half the world thinks While the other half does
Half the world talks With half a mind on what they say Half the world walks With half a mind to run away
Half the world lies Half the world learns Half the world flies As half the world turns
Half the world cries Half the world laughs Half the world tries To be the other half
Half of us divided Like a torn-up photograph Half of us are trying To reach the other half
Half the world cares While half the world is wasting the day Half the world shares While half the world is stealing away

I bring you................ Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi
See me ride out of the sunset On your colour TV screen Out for all that I can get If you know what I mean Women to the left of me And women to the right Ain't got no gun Ain't got no knife But don't you start no fight
'Cause I'm T.N.T. I'm dynamite T.N.T. and I'll win the fight T.N.T. I'm a power load T.N.T. watch me explode
I'm dirty, mean and mighty unclean I'm a wanted man Public enemy number one Understand So lock up your daughter Lock up your wife Lock up your back door And run for your life The man is back in town Don't you mess me 'round
T.N.T. Oi, oi, oi T.N.T. Oi, oi, oi T.N.T. Oi, oi, oi T.N.T. Oi, oi, oi T.N.T. Oi I'm dynamite oi, oi T.N.T. Oi, And I'll win the fight, T.N.T. I'm a power load T.N.T. Watch me explode

Jake, could you keep it to one post at a time, please. Even if you want to post two songs, please put them both in one post.
Hear You Me Jimmy Eat World
There's no one in town I know You gave us some place to go. I never said thank you for that. I thought I might get one more chance.
What would you think of me now, So lucky, so strong, so proud? I never said thank you for that. Now I'll never have a chance.
May angels lead you in. Here you meet my friends. On sleepless roads the sleepless go. May angels lead you in.
So what would you think of me now, So lucky, so strong, so proud? I never said thank you for that. Now I'll never have a chance.
May angels lead you in. Here you meet my friends. On sleepless roads the sleepless go. May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in. May angels lead you in.
And if you were with me tonight, I'd sing to you just one more time. A song for a heart so big, God wouldn't let it live.
May angels lead you in. Here you meet my friends. On sleepless roads the sleepless go. May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in. Here you meet my friends. On sleepless roads the sleepless go. May angels lead you in.
May angels lead you in.

Right now i've been listening to a Dutch band called Within Temptation. Awesome stuff. I love symphonic rock.
Within Temptation: Forsaken
Now the day has come We are forsaken this time
We lived our lives In our paradise As Gods we shaped the world around No borderlines We stayed behind No boundaries is something fragile
Well we thought we were gaining We turned back the time It still slips away Our time has run out Our future has died There's no more escape
Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more Life will pass us by We are forsaken We're the last of our kind
The sacrifice Was much to hide Our grief just made us all go on We try to hide what we fear inside Today is the end of tomorrow
As the sea started rise And the land that we conquered It just washed away We all have tried To turn back the time It was all in vain
Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more Life will pass us by We are forsaken Only rules stay below
(Een hoop gebrabbel)
Now the day has come We are forsaken this time
Now the day has come We are forsaken There's no time any more
Now the day has come, The day has come

For some odd reason, I'm in a Fleetwood Mac mood.
Don't Stop Fleetwood Mac
If you wake up and don't want to smile, If it takes just a little while, Open your eyes and look at the day, You'll see things in a different way. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. Why not think about times to come, And not about the things that you've done, If your life was bad to you, Just think what tomorrow will do. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. All I want is to see you smile, If it takes just a little while, I know you don't believe that it's true, I never meant any harm to you. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here, It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone. Don't you look back, Don't you look back.

I think this might have been posted before, but I absolutely love this song. The music is pretty good (I'm into electropop a lot this days) and the lyrics are great, especially the first couple verses and "I hope this song will guide you home" part.
Such Great Heights The Postal Service
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles In our eyes are mirror images and when We kiss they're perfectly aligned And I have to speculate that God himself Did make us into corresponding shapes like Puzzle pieces from the clay True, it may seem like a stretch, but Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled Head when you're away when I am missing you to death When you are out there on the road for Several weeks of shows and when you scan The radio, I hope this song will guide you home
They will see us waving from such great Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say But everything looks perfect from far away, 'come down now,' but we'll stay...
I tried my best to leave this all on your Machine but the persistent beat it sounded Thin upon listening That frankly will not fly. you will hear The shrillest highs and lowest lows with The windows down when this is guiding you home

Jillian- Within Temptation
I've been dreaming for so long, To find a meaning to understand. The secret of life, Why am I here to try again?
Will I always, will you always See the truth when it stares you in the face? Will I ever, will I never free myself By breaking these chains?
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, Have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way.
I've been living for so long, Many seasons have passed me by. I've seen kingdoms through the ages Rise and fall, I've seen it all.
I've seen the horror, I've seen the wonders Happening just in front of my eyes. Will I ever, will I never free myself by making it right?
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, Have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way.
Jillian our dream ended long ago. All our stories and all our glory I held so dear. We won't be together For ever and ever, no more tears. I'll always be here until the end. Jillian, no more tears... Jillian, no more tears...
I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back, it's my fault. Your destiny is forlorn, Have to live till it's undone. I'd give my heart, I'd give my soul I'd turn it back and then at last I'll be on my way.

Special Needs Placebo
Remember me when you're the one who's silver screened Remember me when you're the one you always dreamed Remember me when whenever noses start to bleed Remember me special needs
Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene With six months off for bad behaviour
Remember me when you clinch your movie deal Think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels Remember me through flash photography and screens Remember me special dreams
Just 19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene With six months off for bad behaviour Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene With six months off for bad behaviour
Remember me...
Just 19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene With six months off for bad behaviour Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene With six months off for bad behaviour
Remember me...

You're Beautiful James Blunt
My life is brilliant.
My life is brilliant. My love is pure. I saw an angel. Of that I'm sure. She smiled at me on the subway. She was with another man. But I won't lose no sleep on that, 'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don't know what to do, 'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye, As we walked on by. She could see from my face that I was, Flying high, [ - video/radio edited version] *censored*ing high, [ - CD version] And I don't think that I'll see her again, But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don't know what to do, 'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. There must be an angel with a smile on her face, When she thought up that I should be with you. But it's time to face the truth, I will never be with you.

Sigh.
A Long December Counting Crows
A long December and there’s reason to believe Maybe this year will be better than the last I can’t remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin' Now the days go by so fast
And it’s one more day up in the canyons And it’s one more night in hollywood If you think that I could be forgiven... I wish you would
The smell of hospitals in winter And the feeling that it’s all a lot of oysters, but no pearls All at once you look across a crowded room To see the way that light attaches to a girl
And it’s one more day up in the canyons And it’s one more night in hollywood If you think you might come to california... I think you should
Drove up to hillside manor sometime after two a.m. And talked a little while about the year I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower, Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her
And it’s been a long december and there’s reason to believe Maybe this year will be better than the last I can’t remember all the times I tried to tell my myself To hold on to these moments as they pass
And it’s one more day up in the canyon And it’s one more night in hollywood It’s been so long since I’ve seen the ocean... I guess I should
