Sage Francis - Inherited Scars

Day 31: Any song you want

Sorry to hear you're going through things
I'll be your metaphorical punching bag if you need me to be.

Anyway, here's Wonderwall

Day 31: Any song you want:

Roger Daltrey - McVicar
We listened a lot to this record when I was a teen!

 

[lavendersilk]

Sorry to hear you're going through things
I'll be your metaphorical punching bag if you need me to be.

Anyway, here's Wonderwall

This is another song that just takes me back to my teens. Overplayed on the radio at the time, but I still like to hear it every once in a while.

On the album, the first song which I won't say the name of, it starts with the beginning guitar strumming from Wonderwall and then you hear a like... electric beeping sound and then the other song plays. It's kind of different. Back then albums were expected to be played from start to finish. Sure, you could skip to the track you wanted, but a lot of the tracks blended and sometimes there would be a hidden one at the end.

Been going through one of those funks lately where I feel invisible, like an afterthought.

"Mr. Cellophane" from the musical, Chicago.

"" for the song. for the funk.

There’s some stuff going on in my personal life. I might pause the challenge for June. I might put up one of those challenge graphics on the first page like I did the first month, and let the challenge run itself. We’ll see. I’ll post something more official about it tomorrow when I decide what to do.


Day 30: A song about uncertainty

“Every day it starts again
You cannot say if you're happy
You keep trying to be
Try harder, maybe, maybe this is not your year”

The Weepies - Not Your Year

I hope everything is ok

I've always liked every version of this song but this one is just perfection from the first note to the last.

You’re the best of posters, you’re the worst of posters.

Day 31 any song I want!

The pressure!

Anyway this song’s currently on heavy rotation in my life. Like the video too.

Hot shit, I’m coming with the heat.

 

[AbsintheFather]

When your favorite female vocalist pairs up with one the world's best guitarists to do a Kennedy Center tribute to blues master Buddy Guy you get this.

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Day 31
Stevie Nicks - Edge Of Seventeen.

"Any song you want"
Oh the weight of too much choice.
Do I want something to reflect how I'm feeling or how I want to feel? Do I want to share a soundtrack from a significant moment from my life?

In the end I chose this week's wonderful ear worm because why the hell not.

Day 31 any song you want......Well we all know what this is

Day 31: Any song you want

Seriously, Princess? Any song? Any song at all? I should be bowed under with choices. So many things to think through!

Nah.

People on here, and throughout Lit, talk about what they find sexiest. Be it a hair color (and I have strong weakness there), whether they wear glasses or not, eye color, the shape of a mouth, a particular body part, height, body shape, or choice of clothing -- as many options as there are people. And I get that, I get all of those. And all of those ring for me as well. But for me, there is one, single, long-abiding attractor among all of the beautiful others. One that stands far above them all.

Smart women ring my bell.

Not just intelligent, or knowledgeable, but also clever, quick or deliberate -- smart. Cue Ani DiFranco. I could go on for a long time on how much I love her and her work, but I will just say that she is, in my option--never humble--the greatest American poet/singer. (Yes, Bob, I said it.) And that the Righteous Babe Records story should be an example to everyone. I honestly believe that Ani would love this thread and fit right in here. And I cannot think of a higher compliment to the Fairly Princess who started it --and whose heart and mind and style keep it so friendly and warm-- as well as all of the rest of us who helped build it into what it is: a comfortable place to show others music we love and why we love it.

I love this song. It is a hymn of praise to all that a woman is. Alabanza. It says that smart is sexy, that wise is sexy, that compassionate is sexy, that strong is sexy, and that being kind is goddamned fucking sexy. That being complex is being complete. So I dedicate this to @morelikeasong, for starting this, but also to all of the wonderful women who post here. I was going to list you off, dedication style, but I haven't had coffee yet, and I would feel horrible if I missed anyone. So, if you think this could possibly be referring to you, yes, it absolutely is. I love all of you. (And the guys as well, but they would get a different song.)

This is the studio version because I am a percusionist and love the end.

"32 Flavors," Ani DiFranco.

I love this song. I wasn't familiar with her until this song was covered by Alana Davis I'm embarrassed to admit. Shout out to Pop-Up Video for letting me know who sang it originally. I miss Pop-Up Video.

Don't be! Davis's version was what got a lot of people to discover Ani. I don't dislike her cover, but it doesn't hold a candle to the original for me. Far more...rich.

My current obsession. I love this song and dance around my office to it at least once a day right now
