Mad World - Tears for Fears

The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had"

NIN
"Bow down before the one you serve, your going to get what you deserve"

[gumby]

You can lose your head.
You can lose your mind.
You can lose your way.
Keep your eyes and still be blind.

From In The The Name Of Angels by Men Without Hats

The sun never sets for those who ride into it.

Nothing got me through a breakup better than Stiff Little Fingers:

"Too hard on love,
Too hard on you,
The answer's 'NO'
Is that straight enough for you?"

But admitedly, there were a lot more lyrical gems back in the 80's. A far cry from today's monosyllabic expletives (e.g. hoe, pimp... and those are the tamed ones.) [:o)]

After marrying upward, I so appreciate now the Waterboys' Whole of the Moon. It strikes the middle ground of praise without being too gushy. And there is the imagery of course...

I pictured a rainbow, you held it in your hands.
I had flashes, you saw the plan.
I wandered out in the world for years, while you just stayed in your room.
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon.

You were there at the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels
To reach too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon.

I was grounded, while you filled the skies.
I was dumbfounded by truth, you cut through lies.
I saw the rain-dirty valley, you saw Brigadoon.
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon.

I spoke about wings, you just flew.
I wondered, I guess that I tried. You just knew.
I sighed, but you swooned.
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon.

With a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder and you know how it feels
To get too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon.

Unicorns, cannonballs, policies and tears
Trumpets, tyrants, tenements, wide oceans full of tears
Flags, rags, ferry boats, scimeters and scars
Every precious dream and vision underneath the stars.

Yes you climbed on the ladder, with the wind in your sails.
You came like a comet blazing your trail.
Too high, too far, too soon.
You saw the whole of the moon.

Pop Goes The World was a great pop album.

One of my fav's:

"Just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "


If he'd let me, I'd have sex with Robert Smith's voice.

Can we have two favorites? Here's another for the bachelor in all of us...

"It's like a plague
And it's moving thru the city
It's a disease
And the symptoms aren't too pretty

Everybody's going outta control
They think they're happy but they just don't know
All my friends wanna settle down
Get married, move to Levittown

Don't need you, girl, don't need no parasite
Don't need no love to keep me warm at night"

- The A's, "Parasite"
