Thanks for tagging me Ms Gromit! I've just had so much fun trying to decide which songs to choose for this game. There were just so many I could have chosen.
First up is Rosé by The Feeling. I just love the lyrics in this song, they're so clever. When I first heard it I thought it was called Rosie and was about a girl and I think in a way it is. I love this song, plus I don't mind a glass of rosé either!
Rosé by The Feeling
You and your friends
In boxes of ten
Cool to the touch
You warn me so much
The white to your left
The red to your right
Were all that I'd seen
Till I realised the love that I seek
Lies right in-between
Rosé
I love ya
Especially today
Rosé
I love your delicate way
The chill in my veins
Relieves me from pain
Again and again
I lose all control
Your taking your toll
And I'm no longer sane
Don't be afraid
The love that I show
is the love that you made
So don't be afraid
'Cos your in control
I'm just your slave
Rosé,
I love ya,
Especially today,
Rosé,
I love your delicate way.
Don't let him put you down
I won't let him put you down
'Cos your as good as the rest
And you're much better dressed
I think pink is my colour
I wont drink from no other
Never!
Oh I love ya
Especially today
Especially this way
Oh Rosé
I want ya
Believe me this way
Rosé
I love your delicate way.
The next song I chose is Folk Song by The Sundays because it transports me to another place when I hear it and this is definitely like a poem. One of my favourite songs too.
Folk Song by The Sundays
summer sky and a throat bone dry
and the fields are all gold
dusty lane with a song in my brain
and it stoned me to my soul
I climb higher move towards the fire
.....blaze sun
silver trees and a whispering breeze
are my sight and my sound
the thought of heaven
couldn’t drag me from the path
when I’m wandering here alone
I climb higher move towards the fire
.... so blaze sun
watch until it dies
slow falling from the sky
pale fading sun
Last one although I could play this game all day! The Boatman by The Levellers. This song fills me with warmth every time I hear it. Would love to be able to play this on the guitar. Hopefully going to be learning how soon if I can persuade a friend to teach me! I think I may have to resort to using John Smiths as bribery! It's a long held ambition. :-)
The Boatman by The Levellers
If I could choose the life I please
Then I would be a boatman
On the canals and the rivers free
No hasty words are spoken
My only law is the river breeze
That takes me to the open seas
If I could choose the life I please
Then I would be a boatman
If I could choose the life I please
Then I would be a rover
And if the road was not for me
Then I would choose another
Cross mountains and the valleys deep
Where I would take these weary feet
If I could choose the life I please
Then I would be a rover
But these things they're so hard for me
I cannot choose my own destiny
And all the things that I want to see
Are so unclean
Well I wish I could choose the life I please
But I am not a free man
Others rule my destiny
But my will's never broken
I know someday I will be
Everything that I dreamed I'd be
And when I live the life I please
Then I will be a freeman.
I know someday I will be
Everything that I dreamed I'd be
And when I live the life I please
Then I will be a freeman.
And when I live the life I please
Then I will be a freeman.
So I hope you all had a good weekend. Mine was filled with trying to re-live my youth by playing on the swings and slides at the local park but don't tell anybody!! ;-) Don't want to be told off in the local newsletter! See you all soon.
Edit*** Completely forgot to pass the tag on so I will just tag anyone reading who wants to play. Go on! It's fun!
