Songs I Can't Get Enough Of These Days

Sadly I can only list a few. There are many many more.

1 - Florence + The Machine - Blinding - I recommend the whole album, called Lungs

2 - Nico Vega - Gravity - don't know album names but I've heard one of them at random and it's a full night of rock and roll

3 - Jason Mraz - I'm Yours - have not explored the rest of his music too much but he's totally a drop of sunshine

4 - Coldplay - Viva La Vida

One sounds like she's on heroin, the other one sounds like she's on coke, and third one sounds like he discovered Prozac. Coldplay is just always cool. Their songs give me goosebumps now, ever since I saw them live. 

Florence sounds a lot like a sharp voice in my head. No more, no more, no more NO MORE .. The plucking of violins and the jungle-beating of the drum. The melancholy in her voice. It should start raining everytime I push play. Why is it so dry? Every note should be hitting my skin in a droplet of water, it's the only way this song should be heard. 

No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone

No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

I mean holy shit man.. read the lyrics. Listen to her. This is what I was ranting about in the last couple of posts. Or has it been longer and I have no concept of time right now? This is totally what I was feeling. And it's also why I won't be having Optimism over again for tea. You know, in case that wasn't clear.

Aja (Nico Vega) sounds like the rock n' roller in me who's dying to come out and sing my heart out. I so fucking wish I could sing. Fuck my performance phobia. She's so energizing, I can't get my eyes off her when she's performing. And she reminds me of someone I met recently. This girl even had that throaty raspy voice. But I don't think Aja hangs out anywhere around here.

Jason you silly boy. You found Jesus, didn't you? I want to pinch your cheeks. Come sit next to me, I'll sway and harmonize with you. You're not really my type, your face is kind of weird, but I'd like to chill with you for an afternoon or something. Facebook me, we'll keep in touch.

My belly button itches. I swam in saltwater today. It felt great. Now not so much. Shit.. maybe it's infected. But it looks fine. Maybe it's fine and I'm just paranoid. Maybe I should stop thinking about it, and it'll stop itching.

So in an effort not to overkill the songs I mentioned (because I tend to do that), I'm going to shuffle my music rather than go back the same Nico Vega and Florence + The Machine albums (which are also excellent) So..... next on iTunes shuffle, Frank Sinatra - Somewhere Beyond the Sea. Hey look at that, it worked. No itching.

Here's one for soulful moments:

Jason Mraz - On Love, In Sadness

do NOT, I repeat, do NOT listen to the recorded studio version. bluh.

Before I go, it's a full moon out tonight. I had to take a picture. Even if it's with a shitty camera, I had to.
