Here's my two cents, for what it's worth:
"Way Over Yonder" - Carole King
"Lontano Degli Occhi" (Far From My Eyes) - Mary Hopkin
"In My Life" - the Judy Collins version
Signor V.
"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."

And you liar, teller of tall tales: you trample all the Lord's commandments underfoot, you murder, steal, commit adultery, and afterward break into tears, beat your breast, take down your guitar and turn sin into a song. Shrewd devil, you know very well that God pardons singers no matter what they do, because he can simply die for a song.

My girlfriend keeps saying she wants good riddance by green day played at hers. Me on the other hand, I'm kind of partial to photograph by nickleback.
Look at this photograph Everytime I do it makes me laugh How did our eyes get so red And what the hell is on Joey's head
And this is where I grew up I think the present outa fix it up I never knew we'd ever went without The second floor is hard for sneaking out
And this is where I went to school Most of the time I had better things to do Criminal records said I've broken twice I must have done it half a dozen times
I wonder if its too late Should i go back and try to graduate Lifes better now that it was back then If I was them I wouldn't let me in
Oh oh oh Oh god I
Every memory of looking out the back door I have the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
We used to listen to the radio And sing along with every song we know We said someday we'd find out how if feels To sing to more than just the steering wheel
Kim's the first girl I kissed I was so nervous that I nearly missed She's had a couple of kids since then I haven't seen her since god knows when
Oh oh oh Oh god I
Every memory of looking out the back door I have the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
I miss that town I cannot believe it So hard to stay So hard to leave it
If I could I relive those days I know the one that would never change
Every memory of looking out the back door I have the photo album spread on my bedroom floor Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
Every memory of walking out the front door I found the photo of the friend that I was looking for Its time to say, time to say it Goodbye, goodbye
Look at this photograph Everytime I do it makes me laugh Everytime I do it makes me...

I can think of 3 songs I'd like played at my funeral. They are in order. 1. Anthem to the Estranged-Metal Church 2. Turn me Loose-Loverboy(this pretty much sums up how I have lived my life, by doing things my way, or no way at all. ![](/threads/images/graemlins/classic/laugh.gif) ) 3. Me Against the World-Lizzy Borden Plus I have one request, that is to be be buried upside down. So the whole world can kiss my A**. ![](/threads/images/graemlins/classic/laugh.gif)

IF I had to sum my whole life up in a single musical moment, it would be on DJ Shadow's Mutual Slump (track 10 on Endtroducing), when the frantic drums stop, and a girl's voice says, "Came to America, saw Xanadu, and that's all I wanted to do; rollerskate."
Those words, the way she says it, and the music over the top, evokes feelings I can't describe with words in me. A kind of nostalgic reminiscence of something I haven't yet experienced.

Originally posted by Capo de La Cosa Nostra: evokes feelings I can't describe with words in me. A kind of nostalgic reminiscence of something I haven't yet experienced. Waaaw. You just said with words what I feel. What I think about it is; when will that future nostalgic reminiscence actually be? But then again, do I really want to know when it'll be? So many difficult questions, so little answers... It sucks being smart ![](/threads/images/graemlins/classic/frown.gif)
See, we can act as smart as we want, but at the end of the day, we still follow a guy who fucks himself with kebab skewers.
