I've been fussing lately over what songs I want on my Fall 2007 compilation CD. I like them to mean something to me; carry a personal significance. I like the CD to tell a story.
Stolen - "We watch the season pull up its own stakes, and catch the last weekend of the last week... Watch you spin around in your highest heels, you are the best one of the best ones. We all look like we feel."
How could I not put this song on? It wraps into a few versus and choruses emotions that I feel about the summer, and the end of the summer, when much was going on in my life.
Good for Me - "To feel for you is easy, my baby. I know you're good for me. This feeling inside me, oh it sends me sky high. You're good for me my baby."
Who doesn't want to feel like this about someone? I've felt it, I've loved it. It reminds me of that happy feeling of having someone in your life that is good for you, just having them there is enough, when your heart feels so euphoric that it might burst open.
Puede Ser - "No sé si quedan amigos, y si existe el amor. Si puedo contarte contigo... Puede ser que la vida me guia hasta el sol." (I don't know if friends will remain, and if love exists. If I can count on you... It could be that life will guide me towards the sun.)
Como quiero esta canción. Me da sentimientos de que lo que pasará en la vida estará bien... yo puedo guiar mi vida a lo que quiero, pero al mismo tiempo hay algo que afectará mi vida, sobre lo cual, no tengo elección.
Wonderland Theme - There's a feeling of new mystery, of a new story beginning, though the story is old and been told many times.
Borderline - "If you want me let me know, baby let it show, honey don't you fool around."
A return to my girl's early 80s stuff. I love the old sound of it, the simple music and even more simple lyrics. It's simple. That's what I'm looking to do with my life. I want to simplify, get back to the basics of life. I think happiness is fundamental; it's easy to get lost in too much stuff and forget to be happy with all I already have.
Pure Intuition - "We've been wanting each other since before we were born, and I will want you even after I am gone."
So many memories with this song. Once again that love that is so powerful, so obvious, is what I desire. I refuse to settle. I can count on one hand the number of people have I felt this passionate about.
Please don't stop the Music - "I wasn't looking for nobody when you came my way."
Love when I see some one new who gives me that unknown thrill of not knowing where it might go..."
The Music's no Good Without you - "We skid along the razor's edge, but you were crazy to be free... I miss you boy, I really do, come back to me... the music's no good without you baby, the music's no good at all."
I've ruined some of my best friendships. Some I don't know how or why, others I know exactly why. I'll never give up on them or think that it's over. They will always be in my heart, because what you love can never let you go.
Who Knew - "If someone said three years from now, you'd be long gone, I'd stand up and punch them out... I wish could touch you again, I with I could still call you friend."
People come and go. I'm still learning to recognize and hang on to the special ones.
Cuídate - "Tus ojos me cuentan que te han visto llorar. Llena dos copas de recuerdos de historias que tus manos aún tiemblan si me escuchan hablar. Tu cuídate, aquí yo estaré bien, olvídame yo te recordaré." (Your eyes tell me that they've seen you cry. Fill two cups of memories and stories so that your hands tremble when they hear me speak. Take care of yourself, I will be fine here, forget me, I will remember you.)
Enough said.
White Flag - "I'm not trying to make your life harder or return to where we were... There will be no white flag above my door... And when we meet, which I'm sure we will... I'll let it pass and hold my tongue and you will think that I've moved on, I will go down with this ship."
Recently I broke off a friendship, but I'll always love him.
Alive Again - "And it cuts like a knife as I watch you walk away. There's a bridge I need to burn before I leave, I just want to live again, like a story rain, I need to hear it beat again. I only want to keep the storm from rolling, I only want to learn to feel the rain..."
I'm making changes, learning what I want out of life and how to make it happen.
Call on Me - Great beat, takes me back to when I was just coming out, I kinda feel like that again. I think I'm learning how to be me, how to get closer to myself.
Vogue - "Beaty's where you find it, not just where you bump and grind it... Get up on the dance floor... Bettie Davis we love you."
;)
Secret - "Until I learn to love myself, there was never any loving anybody else. Happiness lies in your own hands. It took me much too long to understand how it could be."
I've made some stupid choices, done stupid things, but I recognize that, I own it as they say now. And I'm going to get better.
Nobody Knows Me - "No one's telling you what to do how to live your life but it's a set up, until you're fed up. This world is not so kind, people trap your mind. I sleep much better at night, I feel closer to the light, now I'm gonna try to improve my life."
Learning from my mistakes and moving forward positively.
X-Static Process - Not myself when you're around... in a crowd... all alone at night. ...will you look at me, don't know who I'm supposed to be. I always wished that I could find someone as beautiful as you, but in the process I forgot that I was special too."
I'll probably never have it figured out. I'll always be searching, my only goal is to progress and get as close to myself as I can.
Can't Take It In - "It couldn't be anymore beautiful. I can't take it in."
I'm really happy with life and where it's going. I still have so much to correct and improve, but I'm on the right track, and that makes me happy.
