bury my future in coffee and wine

2010-10-30T13:22:00.002+01:00

I can always remember good times
bury my future in coffee and wine,
but everytime I see you smile
it feels live I've been happy for a while.

(David Tattersall, Happy For A While)

We fall for the same lies

2010-10-11T13:05:00.003+01:00

They swallowed it whole, they went for the gold for the gold
We fall for the same lies, we all have the same shoes to fit
The preachers and books of your empire will fight here alone
Some day they will be forgotten and die one by one

(Fanfarlo, The Walls Are Coming Down)

but it was just a lie

2010-10-11T12:59:00.000+01:00

I said I give an eye for you
but that was just a lie
I said I'd be the catcher in the rye for you
but that was just a lie
I said I'd fight and die for you
but that was just a lie
I said I'd steal the sun from the sky for you
but that was just a lie
I've just closed my eyes for you

(Irene, The Catcher In The Rye)

This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye

2010-07-29T21:15:00.002+01:00

Ooh! Get me away from here I'm dying
Play me a song to set me free
Nobody writes them like they used to
So it may as well be me
Here on my own now after hours
Here on my own now on a bus
Think of it this way
You could either be successful or be us
With our winning smiles, and us
With our catchy tunes and words
Now we're photogenic
You know, we don't stand a chance

Oh, I'll settle down with some old story
About a boy who's just like me
Thought there was love in everything and everyone
You're so naive!
They always reach a sorry ending
They always get it in the end
Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then
With a winning smile, the poor boy
With naivety succeeds
At the final moment, I cried
I always cry at endings

Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all
From where I'm sitting, rain
Falling against the lonely tenement
Has set my mind to wander
Into the windows of my lovers
They never know unless I write
"This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye"
Said the hero in the story
"It is mightier than swords
I could kill you sure
But I could only make you cry with these words"

(Belle & Sebastian, Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying)

You took me behind a dis-used railway line

2010-06-08T19:31:00.003+01:00

You took me behind a dis-used railway line
And said: "I know a place where we can go
Where we are not known"
And you gave me something that I won't forget too soon
But I can't believe you'd ever care
And this is why you will never care

Oh the alcoholic afternoons
When we sat in your room
They meant more to me
Than any, than any living thing on earth
They had more worth
Than any living thing on earth
Vivid and in your prime
You will leave me behind.

(The Smiths, These Things Take Time)

Everyday is silent and grey

2010-05-28T16:34:00.001+01:00

Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard :
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
...that they forgot to bomb
Come, Come, Come - nuclear bomb

Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey

(Morrissey, Everyday Is Like Sunday)

Can I borrow part of your life?

2010-04-29T18:39:00.001+01:00

In order to be smart he'll switch off his brain.
If conditions were different he'd do exactly the same
The same damn way
Again
Cut off my hair
Walk through the glass
Lock the door
We were outside
But locked inside
It was very beautiful
X's for eyes
Polaroid minds
Love without lies
Everyone's busy so let's watch a film
No one's got no money and no one's got no pills
We only have a few streets but they are ours
There's only one image and the camera's broke
And he's got no smokes
Again

(Comet Gain, Love Without Lies)

Sitting next to a central European monument

2010-04-27T19:47:00.001+01:00

Just give me a second and I’ll tell you
Give me a month by myself
Sitting, smoking Belgian cigarettes
In a restaurant with a famous star

She said I know it’s not forever
I know it’s got to stop
Sitting next to a central European monument
Been driving all night on the grand highway

And if you fall hard, I fall harder
And if you fall hard, I fall harder
If you’re gonna break just let it break
I’ll pick up the pieces and mistakes

(Shout Out Louds, Fall Hard)

in the Summer weather

2010-04-23T20:01:00.002+01:00

(Diamond Rings, All Yr Songs)

Is it April yet?

2010-04-09T22:29:00.003+01:00

Is it April yet?
I forget sometimes how slowly summer passes
You disappeared into Departures
Only half a year ago
It seems like so much more, you know
I went a fortnight without so much as an email
Then a postcard scant of detail
In which you wished me all the best
From the non-specific north west

Should it one day come to pass
That you sit down to your memoirs
Where will this go?

(The Lucksmiths, The Chapter Of Your Life Entitled San Francisco)

will stay with me forever

2010-04-07T23:09:00.001+01:00

And all the memories of the pubs
and the clubs and the drugs and the tubs
we shared together,
Will stay with me forever.

(The Libertines, Music When The Lights Go Out)

Do you remember the summer?

2010-04-06T16:00:00.001+01:00

Do you remember the summer?
I haven't seen it for a while
Come on, bring me some thunder!
Oh, give me your smile.

Spent a week in a dusty library

2010-04-01T09:27:00.002+01:00

Spent a week in a dusty library
Waiting for some words to jump at me
We met by a trick of fate
French navy my sailor mate
We met by the moon on a silvery lake
You came my way
Said, I want you to stay

You and your dietary restrictions
Said you loved me
with a lot of conviction
I was waiting to be struck by lightning
Waiting for somebody exciting
Like you
Oh, the thing that you do
You make me go  uuuh
With the things that you do (you do, you do)

I wanted to control it
But love, I couldn't hold it
I wanted to
control it
But love, I couldn't hold it

I was criticized for lending out my heart
I would criticize for letting you break my heart
why would I stand the dissapointed looks
of fooling at my one tender heart with the looks

(Camera Obscura, French Navy)

I don't know where I'm going but I'm headed somewhere

2010-03-08T20:29:00.003Z

I don't know where I'm going
But I'm headed somewhere
And it's not my time to die
Take a look up, Lauren
The clouds make way for the sunshine
No I'm never gonna fix up
And I might be crazy
But I really got it going on

(Girls, Lauren Marie)

questi giorni quando viene il bel sole

2010-03-03T13:02:00.004Z

On days like these when skies are blue and fields are green
I look around and think about what might have been
and then I hear sweet music float around my head
as i recall the many things we left unsaid

(Matt Monro, On Days Like These, The Italian Job 1969 soundtrack)

Did you know that troubles overtook the neighborhood?

2010-02-28T18:59:00.004Z

Did you know that troubles overtook the neighborhood?
Did you know there's chances we get crossed off the hill
Did you know that troubles overtook the neighborhood?
Did you know there's chances we get crossed off!
Only once again always leave

(Settlefish, In The Neighborhood)

I'm sick of dreaming and it's never for real

2010-02-24T23:30:00.001Z

I'm sick and tired of the way that I feel,
I'm sick of dreaming and it's never for real.
I'm all alone with my deep thoughts.
I'm all alone with my heartache and my good intentions.

I work to eat and drink and sleep just to live,
Feels like I'm never getting back what I give.
I've got a sad song in my sweet heart.
And all I really ever need is some love and attention

And I don't want to cry my whole life through,
I want to do some laughing too.
So come on, come on, come on, come on, laugh with me.
And I don't want to die without shaking up a leg or two,
Yeah, I want to do some dancing too.
So come on, come on, come on, come on, dance with me.

Sometimes youve just gotta make it for yourself.
Sometimes sugar, it just takes someone else.
Sometimes youve just gotta make it for yourself.
Sometimes baby, you just need someone else.

2010-02-12T16:07:00.004Z

The death of the party
Came as no surprise
Why did we bother?
Should have stayed away

And I thought "Well, well"

I'll make your hopes and dreams fall away

2010-02-01T14:23:00.002Z

When I get left alone
The streets offer me a home
So many times I've tried
To reach for the truth inside

Each time you close the door
I think I need you more and more
Just give me the time of day
I'll make your hopes and dreams fall away
I'll make your hopes and dreams fall away

You never will be mine
You never will be mine
You never will be mine
You never will be

Your skin it just drives me mad
My God, I want you so bad
Wanna kiss your red hot lips
Push myself against your hips

(Graham Coxon, You never will be)

The years have seemed short but the days go slowly by

2010-01-30T14:53:00.002Z

Since then it's been a book you read in reverse
So you understand less as the pages turn
Or a movie so crass
And awkwardly cast
That even I could be the star.

I don't look back much as a rule
And all this way before murder was cool
But your memory is here and I'd like it to stay
Warm light on a winter's day.

Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have seemed short but the days go slowly by
Two loose kites falling from the sky
Drawn to the ground and an end to flight.

(The Shins, Pink Bullets)

Me and my cousins

2010-01-28T13:34:00.002Z

It's a line that is always running.

You and your cousins,
I can feel it coming

(Vampire Weekend, Cousins)

Tickles you pink, oh yeah

2010-01-25T16:28:00.003Z

I was a troubled teen
Who put an advert in a magazine
To the annoyance of my imaginary lover
She doubted my philosophy
And this is what she said to me
She said oh, you, you’re green
You don’t know what love means
Oh let me tell you
Tickles you pink, oh yeah
But it likes to hear you scream
Fire and damnation, lamentations
For the likes of you.

Well, give me two good reasons why I oughta stay
And I love to live so pleasantly

Someone who can heal my mind

2009-12-11T23:25:00.002Z

Tender is the night
Lying by your side
Tender is the touch
Of someone that you love too much
Tender is the day
The demons go away
Lord I need to find
Someone who can heal my mind

Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
Come on, Come on, Come on
Get through it
Come on, Come on, Come on
Love's the greatest thing
That we have
I'm waiting for that feeling
I'm Waiting for that feeling
Waiting for that feeling to come

Then I Could Make A Brand New Start In Love With You.

Come up with me, love

2009-12-04T12:04:00.003Z

Come up with me, love
We'll disappear in the evening light
Come up with me, love,
Into a world that's sparkly bright
That's the way it's for me, love
Takes just a little to give me life
That's the way its for me, love
Takes just a touch to drop a stop
On the top of the world

(Tenement Halls, Plenty Is Never Enough)

What did I come here for?

2009-12-04T12:02:00.002Z

Bitter tears
I've lost the will to fight
Bitter tears

There's a melody in every line

2009-11-24T19:27:00.002Z

Like a piece of the air, it's just how you feel
Are you really there? Are you even real?
I don't know which way to go, when I hear you everywhere
There's a melody in every line, and a sorrow in these eyes of mine
if a diamond hangs in every tree and a life is lost for every leaf, can a bird still sing?
I listened just this morning this is what I heard
An angel's wings in cool night air, like a blackbird in the chapel
A starling in the moonlight fair, wings beating up a gale
In the morning, in the morning

(In The Morning, Graham Coxon)

Get out of bed it's the wrong one,
Made out of lead, get dressed instead,
Itch your head and get your shoes on,
Get out of bed and get your socks on,
Sometimes I can't see your face,
It makes me sad.

2009-11-18T15:04:00.001Z

Too good to last, too afraid to ask

Too much to drink, too drunk to think

Where's the beauty buried in this land?

2009-11-16T22:11:00.003Z

Where's the beauty buried in this land?
What will harm or give guiding hand
To boiling lives that pull up through the sea
Fresh undug from the inside of me
Oh how long can it be? Breaking habits with me
Home. Sanctuary
Home, back to me
It's so hard to be away
Now my heart empties into sand
Bunt and tiny, hold out my hand
This war we live through, rattles in my veins
Many deaths & short circuited brains
Oh how long can it be?
A brave new world to se.

(Home, Graham Coxon)

And how's it now, how's it now, how's it back in London Town

2009-11-13T09:01:00.002Z

And I know, I know that she wants you,
She looks at you the way that I do.
Well if you think that I'm lying,
Why would I give up trying so soon?
Where'd you go, where'd you go,
Where'd you leave me of my soul?
Where'd you go?
And how's it now, how's it now,
how's it back in London Town,
Where you let me down?

sussurrano di come nella notte prima
gli altri son scesi come cani da rapina
slegati in squadra a testa china toro toro
hanno spazzato dei rifiuti la banchina
nel gelo di case e caserme s'incammina,
l'aria è strana alza lo sguardo
e sente in alto un grido di poiane
il freddo lo trapassa addosso,
smazza un grammo, allunga il passo
il tipo aspetta dietro il ponte senza fretta

I'd left him dreaming
I roll over and shake him tightly
And whisper "if they want you
Oh they're gonna have to fight me"
Oh fight me

Oh a candle at my chest and a hand on his knee
I got up it was dark
Theres no one in the park at this hour
Why do I keep finding myself here?
Oh find me

She said oh, you, you're green
You don't know what love means
Oh let me tell you
Tickles you pink, oh yeah
But it likes to hear you scream
Fire and damnation, lamentations
For the likes of you

(I love you but you're green, Babyshambles)

I'll make my way instead
to the foot of your ivory tower
But no love do I find there
amongst the leaves and the dying flowers

Wooden lion on your knee
Washed & dressed by mountain hand
Came from water to the sand
Promise me, Caspian Sea

...three, four
Talkin to the songbird yesterday
Flew me to a place not far away
She's a little pilot in my mind
Singin songs of love to pass the time
Gonna write a song so she can see
Give her all the love she gives to me
Talk of better days that have yet to come
Never felt this love from anyone

(Oasis, Songbird)

Annie, told me,
Get out of here, head for the sea,
The sun is hot and the air is clean
The best things in the world are free
And Mister Murphy
Likes his Jackanory
Holsten Export times three
Jimi Hendrix and Thin Lizzy
Annie, Annie, Annie
Met a mate in the afternoon
Holsten shore-line pub-crawl
Looking for some cold beer
Missed the stone punch drunk Judy
Tony, brandy, M.G., Andy
Vodka, scotch and loads of beer
It's so great we want to stay here
Annie, Annie, Annie

No one got it right, no one got it wrong
Live outside your head, live inside a song
Oh love those long lost weekdays spilling over me
And your outlines are all I can see
You mustn't touch it, while he's on the phone
No you can't touch that, while he's on the telephone
Oh love, these long lost weekends falling over me
Now an outline is all I can see

Oh skint and minted
Had it on the dole
Being piling it on now
Oh skint and minted
Running round the city
With nothing on

Well you're an evil swine but I like your style
The wiggle in your walk and the silver in your smile

(Skint and Minted, The Libertines)

London is the place for me
London this lovely city
you can go to France or America
India Asia or Australia
but you must come back
to London city

oh my friends you haven't changed

oh my friends you haven't changed
Inserito originariamente da Ornella Olivieri

Don’t look back into the sun
Now you know that the time has come
And they said it would never come for you oh oh oh oh

Oh my friend you haven’t changed
You're looking rough and living strange
And I know you got a taste for it too oh oh oh

They'll never forgive you but they wont let you go, oh no
She'll never forgive you but she won't let you go, oh no

Don't look back into the sun
You've cast your pearls but now you're on the run
And all the lies you said, who did you save?

But when they played that song at the Death Disco
It started fast but it ends so slow
And all the time it just reminded me of you

They'll never forgive you but they wont let you go (LET ME GO!)
She'll never forgive you but she wont let you go, oh no.

Soon it will be gone forever
Infatuated only with ourselves
And neither of us can think straight any

somebody that takes photographs
Inserito originariamente da Ornella Olivieri

“I got into photography totally inadvertently, so I still don’t think of myself as a photographer, but as somebody that takes photographs. I don’t know modern technology, I know what works for me, with my sort of bashed up old equipment. Therefore, I’m just as likely to get inspiration from a left-field bit of decoration, or a bit of music, or anything, as I am from another photographer."

Colin Zeal knows the value of mass appeal
He's a pedestrian walker, he's a civil talker
He's an affable man with a plausible plan
Keeps his eye on the news, keeps his future in hand

first night back in London
Inserito originariamente da Ornella Olivieri

And into the sea goes pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the dogger bank
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and go asleep

(This is a low, Blur)
