What music are you listening to today?

[Irish in Oz]

Seen him a few times, the best concerts in the Ulster Hall, Belfast. I did have his autograph but it got misplaced on my move to Oz.

[VladTepes]

OK so for some reason I've been on a Dido binge. She had (has) some great songs and lyrics are also awesome.

Most people know this one as it was included in Eminen's "Stan"

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall
it reminds me that it's not so bad
it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay
my head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today
I'm late for work again
and even if I'm there, they'll all imply that I might not last the
day
and then you call me and it's not so bad
it's not so bad and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through and
through
then you handed me a towel and all I see is you
and even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a clue
because you're near me and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

and to prove she's awesome acoustically as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irzOMH7GcnQ

With one light on in one room
I know you're up when I get home
With one small step upon the stair
I know your look when I get there
If you were a king up there on your throne
Would you be wise enough to let me go
For this queen you think you own
Wants to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go

The unread book and painful look
The TV's on, the sound is down
One long pause
Then you begin
Oh look what the cat's brought in
If you were a king up there on your throne
Would you be wise enough to let me go
For this queen you think you own
Wants to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go
Let me leave

For the crown you've placed upon my head feels too heavy now
And I don't know what to say to you but I'll smile anyhow
And all the time I'm thinking, thinking

I want to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go

I want to be a hunter again
I want to see the world alone again
To take a chance on life again
So let me go

Let me leave
Let me go.

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
Where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

But I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and destruction
To come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again

And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
Then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Two weeks away feels like the whole world should've changed
But I'm home now
And things still look the same
I think I'll leave it till tomorrow to unpack
Try to forget for one more night
That I'm back in my flat on the road
Where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can't watch the sun set
I don't have time
I don't have time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again

Tomorrow's back to work and down to sanity
Should run a bath and then clear up the mess I made before I left here
Try to remind myself that I was happy here
Before I knew that I could get on the plane and fly away
From the road where the cars never stop going through the night
To a life where I can watch the sun set
And take my time
Take all our time

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again

I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again

Two weeks away, all it takes to change and turn me around, I've fallen
I walked away and never said that I wanted to see you again

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again

I've still got sand in my shoes
And I can't shake the thought of you
I should get on, forget you
But why would I want to
I know we said goodbye
Anything else would've been confused
But I wanna see you again

I wanna see you again
I wanna see you again

I wanna go to bed with arms around me
But wake up on my own
Pretend that I'm still sleeping
Till you go home

I can't look at you this morning
I should probably have a sign
That says "leave right now or quicker"
You've overstayed your time

If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is safe for me
When I don't believe in love, you're too close to me
That's why you have to leave

Maybe I slept peaceful on your shoulder
Your arm warm around my side
But it's different now, it's morning
And I can't face your smile

The second that I feel your safe hands
Reaching out for mine
I slip away and out of sight
You've overstayed your time

If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me

If I don't believe in love, nothing is good for me
If I don't believe in love, nothing will last for me
When I don't believe in love, nothing is new for me
Nothing is warm for me and nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, why do you care for me?
When I don't believe in love, nothing is real for me
If I don't believe in love, you're getting too close to me
That's why you have to leave, that's why you have to leave

If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love
If I don't believe in love, nothing is left for me
If I don't believe in love, you're too good for me

I haven't ever really found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind
that your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought
that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone
and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well how can I say I'm alive

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine
Cos nothing I have is truly mine
Cos nothing I have is truly mine
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

Rossington gone, last Skynrd. Thats my music today, has been for decades.

[Boa]

Like most days it seems, I'm listening to Rival Sons. Such a good band, they never disappoint.
At this moment I'm listening to 'Do Your Worst'.

[Phill P]

Rammstein Sehnsucht, yesterday was Zeit

[Mick_J]

Rammstein is always a good choice. 

[grog]

Mate saw them in concert, singer riding giant penis shooting foam out the end, keyboard player on treadmill whole concert.Must be fit.

[Mick_J]

From what I've read they get through around 18 - 20 gallons of petrol in their shows.

[Jeykey]

Went to Roger Waters yesterday night, 1st European gig for his first farewell tour. My favourite, has always been. Incredible at 79. Listening to Pink Floyd ones and his solo career which is sublime. Paid a VIP ticket, damn maybe his last tour, seen several times here. Came with a signed poster.

[Hooli]

I bet that was good. There was a Pink Floyd tribute at Farmyard last year & they were fantastic when not the real thing.

[grog]

Jeykey, amazing to see id reckon. Never seen live, just a million videos. Listening my whole life, in many different states of attention. 

[Tony Nitrous]

Some days it's nice to have no neighbours. . . .
