Oldie but a goodie. And I keep thinking of this song for some reason, probably because I love the piano bits in this.
Tiny Dancer Elton John
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street Handing tickets out for God Turning back she just laughs The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows, the tune she hums
But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can't hear me When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen you had a busy day today
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can hear me When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today
Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen You had a busy day today

This is a song from my friend Nick's band. He's the bassist and he does backing vocals on this track. I am surprisingly in love with this song. It sounds kind of like a young version of Semisonic, so if you want to hear it, you can download it here. Support local music!
Sunshine Midwestern Lull
Sunshine I walk across the street I walk along the sidewalk To where you live
I’m fine Waving as you speak I ask you what you’re up to And how you’ve been
Not the same without ya Now I sit around and I think about ya Not the same without ya Sunshine
Another welcome home Another way to travel Another wind Oh why So many times you’ve cried Feel it’s never over It never is
Not the same without ya Now I sit around and I think about ya Not the same without ya Sunshine
Another welcome home Another wind
Sunshine I walk across the street I walk along the sidewalk To where you live

Carnival : Our Lady Peace
You know you're not a strong man and you're just about to cry hang on it's all right you worry about the future the sign said "Yoga class for cats" it's okay...
the dynamite is waiting they bankrupted the sky
you're frustrated by the cracks in the pavement and every mother's back... once again the carnival closed down but if this world ever turns around you'll be there when everyone is sane you'll be there

All I really want to do Bob Dylan
I ain't lookin' to compete with you, Beat or cheat or mistreat you, Simplify you, classify you, Deny, defy or crucify you. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.
No, and I ain't lookin' to fight with you, Frighten you or uptighten you, Drag you down or drain you down, Chain you down or bring you down. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.
I ain't lookin' to block you up Shock or knock or lock you up, Analyze you, categorize you, Finalize you or advertise you. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.
I don't want to straight-face you, Race or chase you, track or trace you, Or disgrace you or displace you, Or define you or confine you. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.
I don't want to meet your kin, Make you spin or do you in, Or select you or dissect you, Or inspect you or reject you. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.
I don't want to fake you out, Take or shake or forsake you out, I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me, See like me or be like me. All I really want to do Is, baby, be friends with you.

Passive- A Perfect Circle
“Dead as dead can be,” my doctor tells me But I just can’t believe him, ever the optimistic one I’m sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe Someday I will walk away and say, “You disappoint me,” Maybe you’re better off this way
Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been It's your right and your ability To become…my perfect enemy…
Wake up (we'll catch you) and face me (come one now), Don’t play dead (don't play dead) Cause maybe (because maybe) Someday I’ll (someday I'll) walk away and say, “You disappoint me,” Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way Maybe you’re better off this way Maybe you’re better off this way You’re better of this; you’re better off this; Maybe you’re better off!
Wake up (can't you) and face me (come on now), Don’t play dead (don't play dead) Cause maybe (because maybe) Someday I’ll (someday I'll) walk away and say, “You *censored*ing disappoint me!” Maybe you’re better off this way
Go ahead and play dead I know that you can hear this Go ahead and play dead Why can't you turn and face me? Why can't you turn and face me? Why can't you turn and face me? Why can't you turn and face me? You *censored*ing disappoint me!
Passive aggressive bullshit

Hallelujah Jeff Buckley
Well I heard there was a secret chord that David played and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music, do ya? Well it goes like this : The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya And she tied you to her kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
(Yeah but) Baby I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor, (You know) I used to live alone before I knew ya And I've seen your flag on the marble arch and love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah...
Well there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me do ya But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
[Instrumental]
Maybe there's a God above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu... Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu... Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallellllluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuujjjaahhhh...Hallelllluuuuuujjaaaaaaaaaahhhh

The Rasmus :: Don't Let Go
Don't let go Don't let go Don't let go
Holding my breath as I walk to your garden Everything seems so abandoned Roses have grown just as high as a mountain Fireflies glow in the dark
Don't let go now (Don't let go) Somebody's lying
Everyone came to the final revival It's been a year since we’ve been here the Spell has been cast to welcome the arrival the Phantom of silence is near
Don't let go now (Don't let go) Your garden is dying These wounds won't heal (Don't let go) Somebody's lying
Break the spell of emptiness And thousand years of loneliness Bless the path of righteousness And walk the trails of holiness
Your garden is dying Somebody's lying
Don't let go now (Don't let go) Your garden is dying These wounds won't heal (Don't let go) Somebody's lying
Don't let go now (Don't let go) Your garden is dying These wounds won't heal (Don't let go) Somebody's lying Yeaaaaah
Ohhh oh oh ohhhhh (Don't let go) Your garden is dying Ohhh oh oh ohhhhh (Don't let go) Somebody's lying
Aaah ah ah ah One of us is lying Aaah ah ah ah ah

Off the Stadium Arcadium album. This is my favourite on the Mars disc.
Hard to Concentrate Red Hot Chili Peppers
Hustle, bustle and so much muscle awww Cells about to seperate And I find it hard to concentrate and
Temporary this cash and carry I'm stepping up to indicate The time has come to deviate and
All I want is for you to be happy and Take this moment to make you my family and Finally you have found something perfect and Finally you have found
Death defying this mess I'm buying It's raining down with love and hate And I find it hard to motivate and
Estuary is blessed but scary your Heart's about to palpitate And I'm not about to hesitate and
One to treasure the rest of your days here and Give you pleasure in so many ways dear and Finally you have found something perfect and Finally you have found... here we go
Do you want me to show up for duty and Serve this woman and honor her beauty and Finally you have found something perfect and Finally you have found... yourself
With me... will... you... agree to take This man... into your world... And now... we are as one...
My lone ranger the heat exchanger Is living in this figure eight And I'll do my best to recreate and
Sweet precision and soft collision awww Hearts about to palpitate And I find it hard to seperate and
All I want is for you to be happy and Take this woman and make you my family and Finally you have found someone perfect and Finally you have found... now
All I want is for you to be happy and Take this woman and make you my family and Finally you have found someone perfect and Finally you have found... yourself

Holland, 1945 Neutral Milk Hotel
The only girl I've ever loved Was born with roses in her eyes But then they buried her alive One evening 1945 With just her sister at her side And only weeks before the guns All came and rained on everyone Now she's a little boy in Spain Playing pianos filled with flames On empty rings around the sun All sing to say my dream has come
But now we must pack up every piece Of the life we used to love Just to keep ourselves At least enough to carry on
And now we ride the circus wheel With your dark brother wrapped in white Says it was good to be alive But now he rides a comet's flame And won't be coming back again The Earth looks better from a star That's right above from where you are He didn't mean to make you cry With sparks that ring and bullets fly On empty rings around your heart The world just screams and falls apart
But now we must pack up every piece Of the life we used to love Just to keep ourselves At least enough to carry on
And here's where your mother sleeps And here is the room where your brothers were born Indentions in the sheets Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore And it's so sad to see the world agree That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes

I, personally, think it isn't halloween without a song from this movie.
This Is Halloween Nightmare Before Christmas
Boys and girls of every age Wouldn't you like to see something strange? Come with us and you will see This, our town of Halloween
This is Halloween, this is Halloween Pumpkins scream in the dead of night
This is Halloween, everybody make a scene Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright It's our town, everybody scream In this town of Halloween
I am the one hiding under your bed Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red I am the one hiding under your stairs Fingers like snakes and spiders in my hair
This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! In this town we call home Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
In this town, don't we love it now? Everybody's waiting for the next surprise Round that corner, man hiding in the trash can Something's waiting now to pounce, and how you'll scream
Scream! This is Halloween Red 'n' black, slimy green Aren't you scared? Well, that's just fine Say it once, say it twice Take the chance and roll the dice Ride with the moon in the dead of night
Everybody scream, everybody scream In our town of Halloween
I am the clown with the tear-away face Here in a flash and gone without a trace I am the "who" when you call, "Who's there?" I am the wind blowing through your hair I am the shadow on the moon at night Filling your dreams to the brim with fright
This is Halloween, this is Halloween Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
Tender lumplings everywhere Life's no fun without a good scare That's our job, but we're not mean In our town of Halloween
In this town Don't we love it now? Everyone's waiting for the next surprise
Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back And scream like a banshee Make you jump out of your skin This is Halloween, everyone scream Won't ya please make way for a very special guy
Our man Jack is king of the pumpkin patch Everyone hail to the Pumpkin King now This is Halloween, this is Halloween Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
In this town we call home Everyone hail to the pumpkin song
La la-la la, Halloween! Halloween!

This was played at the Chili Peppers concert the other night and the way it was done was actually really good, so good that I have had this song stuck in my head since.
Wet Sand Red Hot Chili Peppers
My shadow side so amplified Keeps coming back dissatisfied Elementary son but it's so…
My love affair with everywhere Was innocent why do you care Someone start the car Time to go…you’re the best I know
My sunny side has up and died I'm betting that when we collide The universe will shift into a low
The travesties that we have seen Are treating me like Benzedrine Automatic laughter from a pro
My what a good day for a walk outside I'd like to get to know you a little better baby God knows that I'll really tried
My what a good day for a take out bride I'd like to say we did it for the better of
I saw you there so unaware Those hummingbirds all in your hair Elementary son but it's so
The disrepair of Norma Jean Could not compare to your routine Balarama beauty going toe to toe
My what a good day just to let it slide I'd like to say we did it for the better of
I thought about it and I brought it out I'm motivated by the lack of doubt I'm consecrated but I'm not devout The mother, the father, the daughter
Right on the verge just one more dose I'm traveling from coast to coast My theory isn't perfect but it's close I'm almost there why should I care My heart is hurting when I share Someone open up and let it show
My what a good day for a walk outside I'd like to think we did it for the better of
You don't form in the wet sand You don't form at all You don't form in the wet sand I do Yeah
You don't form in the wet sand You don't form at all You don't form in the wet sand I do

Out of curiosity... why is this thread here and not in WTCH?
Love Like Winter AFI
Warn your warmth to turn away, Here it's december, Everyday. [small girlish echo:] i'm with you, or i love you
Press your lips to the sculptures, And surely you'll stay. [distant:] love like winter
For of sugar and ice, I am made. I am made
It's in the blood, It's in the blood. I met my love before I was born. He wanted love, I taste of blood. He bit my lip, and drank my war, From years before, from years before.
She exhales vanilla lace, I barely dreamt her, yesterday. [echo:] yesterday Read the lines in the mirror through, The lipstick trace. Por siempre
She said "It seems you're somewhere, far away" to his face.
It's in the blood, It's in the blood. I met my love before I was born. She wanted love, I taste of blood. She bit my lip, and drank my war, From years before, from years before.
Love Like Winter.
Love Like Winter.
Winter. Three, four
It's in the blood, It's in the blood. I met my love before I was born. He wanted love, I taste of blood. He bit my lip, and drank my war, From years before, from years before. From years before

Main reason dear Lynn is that WTCH is being revamped. Basically we're gonna close all the threads save those which are still active, like this one.
Your Song - Ewan McGregor(Moulin Rouge); I know many people have criticised this musical but be it good or not, I like this song(also note that I tend to have particularly quirky tastes ).
My gift is my song and this one's for you And you can tell everybody that this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done Hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is now you're in the world
I sat on the roof and I kicked off the moss Well some of the verses well, they...they got me quite cross But the sun's been kind while I wrote this song It's for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do You see, I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway the thing is what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is now you're in the world
