The songs I can't stop listening to (8/5/12)

This blog is really just for me. You can read it if you'd like, and listen to the songs. I post songs on Facebook all the time while I'm doing other work. Songs that are touching me, songs that I simply love, songs that I can't seem to stop listening to without repeating them fourteen times before moving on. But yeah, it's for me, mostly, as a chronicle of the songs that hit me over the course of the days, weeks, months, years.

Sometimes you'll sense a theme. Sometimes you won't. For this inaugural post, though, here's what I've got:

1. Butterfly Boucher - "Drift On"
2. Fiona Apple - "Regret"
3. Kenny Chesney - "Never Gonna Feel That Way Again" (welcome to my guilty pleasures...)
4. Camera Obscura - "French Navy"

 

'member when we argued o'er the concept of regret
you were an expert even then but not me; not yet
Now, all you gotta do's remind me that we met
And there -- you got me -- that's how you got me -- you taught me to regret

 'member how I asked you why are you so mean
you didn't know how to react to being seen
I tried to be your friend, you made me shamed, now I'm getting e'en
And there - you got me - that's how you got me, you taught me to be mean





I'll be criticized for lending out my art 
I was criticized for letting you break my heart
