What Music Are You Listening To? Part XI

[Mirrodinia]

"Poor Places"--Wilco

[Corrian]

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence

[Mirrodinia]

"Reservations"--Wilco

Last one on the album. The album as a whole is certainly much warmer and more melodic than Kid A, but oddly enough, I do understand where the comparisons come from, though they are very different records.

One Direction - One Thing
From Up All Night (2011)

Something's gotta give now
'Cause I'm dying just to make you see
That I need you here with me now
'Cause you've got that one thing

So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing

[Jews and Gypsies]

"Dancing Nancies" - Dave Matthews Band

[Adab]

U2 - Bullet the Blue Sky
From Zoo TV: Live from Sydney (1994)

In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel
And the angel was overcome
You plant a demon seed
You raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses
See the flames higher and higher

Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

[Jews and Gypsies]

"#34" - Dave Matthews Band

[Mirrodinia]

"Everything In It's Right Place"--Radiohead

The voice of a generation perhaps, and what a lamentable image is that?

[Adab]

U2 - Last Night on Earth
From PopMart: Live from Mexico City (1998)

She feels the ground is giving way
But she thinks we're better off that way
The more you take the less you feel
The less you know the more you believe
The more you have, the more it takes today

You got to give it away
(You got to give it away)
You got to give it away
(You got to give it away)
You got to give it away
(You got to give it away)
Well, she don't care what it's worth
She's living like it's the last night on earth
The last night on earth

[Adab]

Elton John - Your Song
Live performance, September 22, 1994

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

[Jews and Gypsies]

"Seven Nation Army" - The White Stripes

[Adab]

Elton John - Your Song
From Elton John (1970)

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
You see I've forgotten
If they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

[Jews and Gypsies]

"Hash Pipe" - Weezer

[Adab]

Elton John - Little Jeannie
From 21 at 33 (1980)

Little Jeannie, you got so much time, little Jeannie
Though you've grown beyond your years, you still retain the fears of youth
Oh little Jeannie, you got so much time, little Jeannie
But you're burning it up so fast, searching for some lasting truth

And I want you to be my acrobat
I want you to be my lover
Oh there were others who would treat you cruel
But oh Jeannie, I will always be your fool

[Palins]

"Mean Machine" - Sugar Ray

[Palins]

"Falls Apart" - Sugar Ray

[Adab]

Bruno Mars - Count on Me
From Doo-Wops & Hooligans (2010)

If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song
Beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Everyday I will
Remind you

Ooh
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one two three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
You'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah

[Palins]

"Rhyme Stealer" - Sugar Ray

[Adab]

Billy Joel - Vienna
From The Stranger (1977)

Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Tonight
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know
You can't always see when you're right. you're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

[Adab]

Billy Joel - Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)
From The Stranger (1977)

Anthony works in the grocery store
Savin' his pennies for some day
Mama Leone left a note on the door
She said, "Sonny, move out to the country."

Oh but workin' too hard can give you a heart attack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack
You oughta know by now
Who needs a house out in Hackensack?
Is that all you get for your money?
