teri mentioned eric's trip:
oh, and since sad songs is such a hot topic these days.. the song "behind the garage" by erics trip always makes me sad (does anyone know/like that song?) and just the other day i was listening to b&s on the porch and the lines, "you're worth the trouble and you're worth the pain you're worth the worry, i would do the same..." made me quite teary.. *sniff*
This is the song that goes, "It's true that we were brokem up, you could do anything..." (my interpretation of the lyrics, which may or may not be right). Yes. An Eric's Trip tape was given to me my by favorite friend Patrick when I was in high school. I listened to it nonstop, eventually taping it-- and that song in particular-- for all of my friends. I haven't listened to that tape in at least a year. I think I will go and find it in the tape box under my bed. Another sad song: Think (Let Tomorrow Bee) by Sebadoh, which conjures up all kinds of relationship questions, doubts, insecurities... What else can I write to give this post merit? How about a new topic: Songs that make us inexplicably happy! Mine include a b-side by the Cure called Halo, which reminds me of a very early boyfriend (when I was 14, to be precise), Plant White Roses by the Magnetic Fields, Check and Double Check- Stereolab... Funny, the whole time we've been talking about sad songs, I've not been able to think of any terribly mopey tunes. Now it seems that about 98 per cent of the songs I love are about very sad things. Seeing Other People has a nice, bright tune, though the lyrics don't necessarily make me leap with joy. -Kristen ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
