The Darkside of the Moon (England really)
Sorry, Anthony! That album is depressing, isn't it? But it fit my mood tonight...
Yeah, it is a bit, with song titles like going under and my last breath. My immortal and "hello", don't get me wrong, they're nice songs, and Amy puts alot into them, but I couldn't listen to them too often.

I was just joking by the way, don't have to worry about me, sorry to hear you feel depressed, anything the matter?

Heart of the South
You're the story of my life,
And every word is true
Each chapter sings your name
Each page begins with you
.......
The story of my life
Is very plain to read
It starts the day you came
And ends the day you leave

The Story Of My Life - Neil Diamond
I love Neil Diamond. I could listen to him all day long.

Song line in my head this morning:

"I find, sometimes it's easy to be myself.
Sometimes, I find it's better to be somebody else"

The great Dave Matthews, So Much to Say

Just SSDD, y'know. Nothing new under the sun.

What song sums up your entire life?

Your song is:
"Like a Rolling Stone"

You're tend to be guarded and hidden to outsiders. The people who really know you are those who gained your trust by understanding and loving you for who you are and not what may or may not lie on your outside. The way you carry yourself and the kinds of things you're into make you brilliantly mysterious, and quite impressive to say the least. The people who seem to misunderstand you are simple-minded and never worth your time. You recognize this so well that you only spend time with people who matter!

"You're Beautiful"

You are well known and everyone depends on you to kick off the party. An adventure would be awfully bland without you. Let's be honest, no one can last a second being sad or depressed around you. You bring out the best of everyone and can turn any situation into fun. Please never change!

"Hey Jude"
You're a smart, cultured, unconventional individual, but you're also humble. You're highly respected in your circle and people genuinely love you for your quirks and all. You can be very playful but your brain is full of knowledge and wit. You're fascinating in every way possible and people feel really lucky to be considered your friend!

You're an ocean full of faces
And you know that we believe
We're just a wave that drifts around you
Singing all our hopes and dreams
We look around in wonder
At the work that has been done
By the visions of our father
Touched by his loving son

- The Moody Blues

That's what I got.

But they're wrong. It's really "Against the Wind" by Bob Seger.

Your multilingual business friend
Has packed her bags and fled
Leaving only ash-filled ashtrays
And the lipsticked unmade bed
The mirror on reflection
Has climbed back upon the wall
For the floor she found descended
And the ceiling was too tall

Your trouser cuffs are dirty
And your shoes are laced up wrong
You'd better take off your homburg
'Cause your overcoat is too long

The town clock in the market square
Stands waiting for the hour
When its hands they both turn backwards
And on meeting will devour
Both themselves and also any fool
Who dares to tell the time
And the sun and moon will shatter
And the signposts cease to sign

- Procol Harum

I've got a couple. A long-standing favorite is:
"Had my ups, had my downs.
Truth was lost and truth was found.
This I've learned: The world still turns.
We all get bruised, we all get burned."
~ Helen Reddy (Happy girls)

A flavor of the week:
"No Masters or Kings
When the Ritual begins.
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am Human
Only then I am Clean."
~Hozier (Take me to church)

Can't you see that you lie to yourself?
You can't see the world through a mirror
It won't be too late when the smoke clears
'Cause I'm, I am still here

Every time I try to make you smile
You're always feelin' sorry for yourself
Every time I try to make you laugh
You can't, you're too tough
You think you're loveless
It was too much that I asked him for

~Avril Lavigne, Too Much to Ask

Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in
Nothing to say but what a day how's your boy been
Nothing to do it's up to you
I've got nothing to say but it's OK

Going to work don't want to go feeling low down
Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town
Everybody knows there's nothing doing
Everything is closed it's like a ruin
Everyone you see is half asleep
And you're on your own you're in the street

After a while you start to smile now you feel cool
Then you decide to take a walk by the old school
Nothing is changed it's still the same
I've got nothing to say but it's OK

People running round it's five o'clock
Everywhere in town is getting dark
Everyone you see is full of life
It's time for tea and meet the wife

Somebody needs to know the time, glad that I'm here
Watching the skirts you start to flirt now you're in gear
Go to a show you hope she goes
I've got nothing to say but it's OK
