Today’s miniplaylist features songs with lyrics that really impressed me. The lyricists put those words together in a way that’s both poetic and musical. They make me think and feel. Anyone who paid attention to yesterday’s post will notice that Joni Mitchell’s back again with “Ludwig’s Tune”. The song actually inspired my theme for today. Anyway, here they are:
Hiatus Kaiyote - Breathing Underwater
Ani DiFranco- 32 Flavors
Res - They Say Vision
Gnarls Barkley - Going On
Joni Mitchell - Judgement of the Moon and Stars (Ludwig's Tune)
And some excerpts:
“I could call your demons inside, soak them in chamomile…”
“And God help you if you are a phoenix and dare to rise up from the ash, a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy, while you are just flying past…”
“Pay no more mind to what you think you've seen, It's as they do only”
“The touch and feeling of free is intangible technically, Something you’ve got to believe in.”
“Condemned to wires and hammers
Strike every chord that you feel
That broken trees
And elephant ivories
Conceal”
