Yep!Did you request this prompt just to post this song??![]()
They (I mean an intern at the record company) once liked one of my tweets about them and I was so happy about it. An all around aesthetically pleasing band.Day 6: A song that mentions a body part
Oh, itโs true. I adore this song.Day 6: A song that mentions a body part
"Both Hands," Ani DiFranco
This one keeps coming back, so I listen. This was the first song on her first album, which is just absolutely amazing. On most of Ani's work, I like the live version better, but the studio version is so raw. It also has one of the greatest lyrics I have ever read:
Oh, no don't close your eyes
I am writing
Graffiti on your body
I am drawing the story of
How hard we tried...
That is a short story in five lines, with love, pain, sensuality, and regret. I look at that and think, "I will never write a sentence that good, ever." In love, not in envy.
And I am using my dedication, to @morelikeasong, because she likes this one.
Noooo why must you do this to me? It brings me no pleasure to disqualify you from the points challenge.Day 6: A song that mentions a body part
So, this is the song in my mind.
But, not for the reason one might expect.
See, one night my late wife and I were apart and talking on the phone. And this song came on the radio. I used to be able to sing pretty good, and she really enjoyed it when I would. So, I started singing to her.
Now, at about the same time this one was popular, there was another totally unrelated song that was popular too.
There is absolutely nothing in common between the two! Nothing!
Yet, for some reason that has totally escaped me for decades, I belted out;
"So, now I run to you with broken arms!"
For the rest of her time on this earth, I would occassionally belt out that line while running toward her with arms flopping.
*sigh* And still only 2 pts with an attendance of 6/31
I dance around the house with my kids to this one. It's a classic. Good choice!Day 6: A song that mentions a body part
The video isn't available. But I do know the song.Day 6: A song that mentions a body part
"I close my eyes until I see/ I don't need hands to touch me
I lean on walls until I stand/ I touch my face with my hand"
Grimes - Be a Body
Second choice for sure!Feeling like I must have missed a post cos I can't believe no one's posted this one![]()
