Song of the Day: Dragonette - True Believer

Here's a Dragonette song.  Just because I haven't posted a Dragonette song in a while, and they rock.  This is such a beautiful, sensual, intoxicating song.

But you, you make me better
You give me pleasure
Must be what's best for me
You, you make me sweeter
You give me fever I'm a believer

"True Believer"

I don't play well with the other kids
They know that I'm dangerous
It's evident, I'm different,
My punishment is imminent

They tell me that I'm no good,
They say words
That I've got a curse,
I know that it's true

But you, you make me better
You give me pleasure
It's just your effect on me
You, you make me sweeter
You give me fever and I'm a believer

I've had such a wicked time,
Kissed the boys and made them cry
Laugh and while I wave goodbye
And they'd still like another try

Roger, Larry, Dick and Tom,
Matthew, Harry, Luke, and John
If they knew who I've become, who I've become
The spell I'm under is you

You make me better
You give me pleasure
It's just your effect on me
You've taught me a lesson
Now I'm behaving
Must be what's best for me
You, you make me sweeter
You give me fever now I'm a believer

Do you feel super
I'm the new girl curled round your finger
I've taken your potion
And now I'm senseless, defenceless, a fool
The spell I'm under is you, it's you
You're just what's come over me,
You're who's has gotten into me
You who did this thing to me, I used to be so bad

But you, you make me better
You give me pleasure
Must be what's best for me
You, you make me sweeter
You give me fever I'm a believer

I'm a believer
A true believer
I'm a believer
A true believer

Song of the Day: Lucy Rose - Shiver

Another beautiful song.  Haunting, sad, longing.  I don't want to live with regrets like this.

"Shiver"

We broke
Everything that was right
We both enjoyed a good fight

And we solved
All the holes we had to breathe
To make the other one leave

And I loved the way you looked at me
And I miss the way you made me feel
When we were alone
When we were alone

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you

And we stole
Every moment we had to make the other one feel bad
And we hoped that we could be what we knew
We'd never turn out to be real

And I loved the way you looked at me
And I miss the way you made me feel
When we were alone
When we were alone

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you

And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn to live right
And if we turn back time
Could we learn

And I'll shiver like I used to
And I'll leave him just for you
And I'll shiver like I used to
Just for you

Like I used to

Song of the Day: Skylar Grey - Words (A.N.O. Remix)

Beautiful sad song.  And the best part is that this song was suggested by one of my daughters.  I'm so happy they are growing up and have such great taste.  So proud.

"Skylar Grey - Words (A.N.O. Remix)"


Lyrics from AZLyrics.com:

"Words"

Always in a rush
Never stay on the phone long enough
Why am I so self-important?
Said I'd see you soon
But that was, oh, maybe a year ago
Didn't know time was of the essence

So many questions
But I'm talking to myself
I know that you can't hear me any more
Not anymore
So much to tell you
And most of all goodbye
But I know that you can't hear me any more

It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words I never said
I never said
I can't take back the words I never said

Always talking shit
Took your advice and did the opposite
Just being young and stupid
I haven't been all that you could've hoped for
But if you'd held on a little longer
You'd have had more reasons to be proud

So many questions
But I'm talking to myself
I know that you can't hear me any more
Not anymore
So much to tell you
And most of all goodbye
But I know that you can't hear me any more

It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words

The longer I stand here
The louder the silence
I know that you're gone but sometimes I swear that I hear
Your voice when the wind blows
So I talk to the shadows
Hoping you might be listening 'cos I want you to know

It's so loud inside my head
With words that I should have said
And as I drown in my regrets
I can't take back the words I never said
I never said
I can't take back the words I never said
Never said
I can't take back the words I never said
