GAL, I feel exactly the same way about Amy Winehouse. I started listening to her before she was in the news so much but won't be searching out anymore of her music because it makes me feel sad and angry to hear it now. I like Bo Bice's new cd. You can hear some of it on his MySpace page. myspace.com/bobice Toby Lightman was the opening act at a concert I went to. I really like her sound. tobylightman.com/ This silly little song by Paolo Nutini, a Scottish boy, always puts a smile on my face. "Hey, I put some new shoes on, and suddenly everything's alright..." youtube.com This singer, Lizz Wright, has a couple cds out, but I've just discovered her recently. Her voice is so beautifully soulful. profile.myspace.com

Mak1, I really like Paolo Nutini. I like that he's Scottish too, like me. Love the clay walker song. I am also loving the new Eagles song and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Garth Brooks. So deep and touching, and who hasn't been there: People say she's only in my head It's gonna take time but I'll forget They say I need to get on with my life They don't realize It's when you're dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone Driving cross town just to see if she's home Waking a friend in the dead of the night just to hear him say it's gonna be alright When you're finding things to do not fall asleep Cause you know she'll be there in your dreams that's when she's more than a memory Took a match to everything she ever wrote watched her words go up in smoke tore all her pictures off the wall that ain't helping me at all 'Cause when you're talking out loud and nobody is there you look like hell and you just don't care you're drinking more than you ever drank and sinking down lower than you ever sank When you find yourself falling down upon your knees praying to God, begging him "please" that's when she's more than a memory She's more She's more Cause when you're dialing her number just to hang up the phone Driving cross town just to see if she's home Waking a friend in the dead of the night just to hear him say it's gonna be alright When you're finding things to do not fall asleep Cause you know she's waiting in your dreams that's when she's more than a memory People say she's only in my head It's gonna take time but I'll forget but when she's in every minute of every day every thought i think every breath i take she's everywhere and she's everything she's more than a memory

Great list, Kc! I like "Jackie" by Shinead O' Connor, very haunting. Also a song called "Ghost Writing" by Neko Case. I like a band called the Geraldine Fibbers, sound like posessed hillbilly music, it's pretty intense--"Outside of Town" is the track. Shinead on Amazon Fibbers on Amazon Lighter, more amusing fare is Link Ray and His Ray Men, "The Shadow Knows," pretty creepy for a 50s song. I always like the Psycho soundtrack any time of year.

I really like the Cold War Kids--here's the great video that goes with the song. The singer's voice takes a bit of getting used to, but it's unique. Hang in and wait for the bridge. Cold War Kids--Hospital Beds

This song and video brought me to tears: Video Stay Sugarland I been sittin' here starin' At the clock on the wall And I been layin' here prayin' Prayin' she won't call It's just another call from home And you'll get it and be gone And I'll be cryin' And I'll be beggin' you, baby Beg you not to leave But I'll be left here waitin' With my heart on my sleeve Oh, for the next time we'll be here Seems like a million years And I think I'm dyin' What do I have to do to make you see She can't love you like me Why don't you stay I'm down on my knees I'm so tired of bein' lonely Don't I give you what you need When she calls you to go There is one thing you should know We don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay (yeah) You keep tellin' me, baby There will come a time When you will leave her arms And forever be in mine But I don't think that's the truth And I don't like bein' used And I'm tired 'a waitin' It's too much pain to have to bear To love a man you have to share Why don't you stay I'm down on my knees I'm so tired of bein' lonely Don't I give you what you need When she calls you to go There is one thing you should know We don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay (yeah) I can't take it any longer But my will is gettin' stronger And I think I know just what I have to do I can't waste another minute After all that I put in it I've given you my best Why does she get the best of you So next time you'll find You wanna leave her bed for mine Why don't you stay I'm up off my knees I'm so tired of bein' lonely You can't give me what I need When she begs you not to go There is one thing you should know I don't have to live this way Baby, why don't you stay, yeah Oh

Powerful song. I like the ending of the song the best because she grows stronger and comes to her senses.

Egbok, did you watch the video. Very moving. She said when making it, she started crying and kept going, she said she just felt the spirit of the song and didn't want them to stop filming. Very powerful. It's been a long time since something like that has brought me to tears. Now the song is stuck permanantly in my head, LOL.

Escapee, yes...I did watch the video. When I called it a powerful song, I was also thinking about the powerful video as well. I could tell she was sincere by her facial expressions and very real tears. I feel she has lived this scenario and that's why she can sing it with such connected feelings. I could be wrong, but then again ya never know.

This is an old one, Goodbye Saigon by Billy Joel, but I was just watching a DVD that my son made for a school project two years ago, and it made me cry. The music is the background, and he used pictures from the Vietnam War. Goodnight Saigon We met as soul mates On Parris Island We left as inmates From an asylum And we were sharp As sharp as knives And we were so gung ho To lay down our lives We came in spastic Like tameless horses We left in plastic As numbered corpses And we learned fast To travel light Our arms were heavy But our bellies were tight We had no home front We had no soft soap They sent us Playboy They gave us Bob Hope We dug in deep And shot on sight And prayed to Jesus Christ With all our might We had no cameras To shoot the landscape We passed the hash pipe And played our Doors tapes And it was dark So dark at night And we held on to each other Like brother to brother We promised our mothers we'd write And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down together Remember Charlie Remember Baker They left their childhood On every acre And who was wrong? And who was right? It didn't matter in the thick of the fight We held the day In the palm Of our hand They ruled the night And the night Seemed to last as long as six weeks On Parris Island We held the coastline They held the highlands And they were sharp As sharp as knives They heard the hum of our motors They counted the rotors And waited for us to arrive And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down together Yes we would all go down together

Neil Diamond - Beautiful Noise What a beautiful noise Comin' up from the street It's got a beautiful sound It's got a beautiful beat It's a beautiful noise Goin' on ev'rywhere Like the clickety-clack Of a train on a track It's got rhythm to spare It's a beautiful noise And it's a sound that I love And it fits me as well As a hand in a glove Yes it does, yes it does What a beautiful noise Comin' up from the park It's the song of the kids And it plays until dark It's the song of the cars On their furious flights But there's even romance In the way that they dance To the beat of the lights It's a beautiful noise And it's a sound that I love And it makes me feel good Like a hand in a glove Yes it does, yes it does What a beautiful noise It's a beautiful noise Made of joy and of strife Like a symphony played By the passing parade It's the music of life It's a beautiful noise And it's a sound that I love And it makes me feel good Just like a hand in a glove Yes it does, yes it does What a beautiful noise Comin' into my room And it's beggin' for me Just to give it a tune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmEXbTHQwSw
