The songs I can't stop listening to (9/2/12)

Here's the list of songs I've been listening to a lot this week. There seems to be a running theme going on about seizing life, love and empowerment.

1. Miles Davis, Bill Laswell - "He Loved Him Madly"
2. Nicki Minaj ft. Drake - "Moment 4 Life"
3. Willie Nelson - "This Face"
4. The New Pornographers - "The Spirit Of Giving"
5. The Beatles - "If I Fell"
6. Cass McCombs - "Harmonia"
7. Tori Amos & Natashya Hawley - "Job's Coffin"



Everybody dies but not everybody lives...



This face is all I have, worn and lived in
And lines below my eyes are like old friends
And this old heart's been beaten up
And my ragged soul has had things rough
And this face is all I have, worn and lived in



And remember that the wolves that you run with are wolves
Don't forget

They exist to give you something to regret, I'll beat them to it
With something sadder than that brass portrait
That shines through your morning din



If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand
'Cause I've been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her

If I trust in you oh please
Don't run and hide
If I love you too oh please
Don't hurt my pride like her...



Friend of mine
united by dream
make me a part of you
and I will you of me



Since time why do we women
give ourselves away?

We give ourselves away
Thinking somehow
That will make him want to stay

Make him stay

Job's coffin looks down
At the day you
Shut your power down

You must outcreate
That destructive tendency
Let your fire start to heal the fury...
