waiting for the night

tom petty
lyrics: 
if she hung around too much i might take her for granted
but when i was away, she seemed an angel
the only one who really cared about me
the only one without an angle

epic lyrics

i am very fond of song lyrics and many of my favorite artists can pen a good ditty. i was trying to compile a list of great songs. here is a quick one - undoubtedly i am missing 100s of songs. please comment some suggestions.

  • led zeppelin - achilles last stand
  • bob dylan - tangled up in blue
  • roy harper - me and my woman
  • raconteurs - carolina drama
  • nick cave (cannot remember the song at the moment, i'll fill it in when i do)

(p.s. vince would probably agree that i am a streaky blogger - 3 one day, nothing for two weeks. mind you he also would probably recommend some obscure metal lyrics to add to this list)

where will i be?

nice lyric

...did anyone ever tell you 
that you brighten up this place?
well, allow me to be the first

this is not your boss talking now.
it's just another good person,
being thrown up against the worst...
-- hidden track: (channel #13),  matt osborne (r.i.p.)
my first year in surreal university, in waterloo, ontario, local artist osborne played in a dorm room lounge one day, selling copies of one of his CDs. i bought a copy and although it's mostly so-so, this hidden track is fantastic in my mind...
