I haven't really been posting music on here like I usually do, so I figured I would link to some of the stuff I've been listening to for the last few days. I think people would be fairly annoyed with me for basically having the same three albums on repeat for almost a week now but for the moment, I'm attached. At least they're not all by the same group.
First up, Ne-Yo. I got a hold of his album Libra Scale earlier this year for someone since he wanted a specific song from it. I got the whole album for him (he had only heard the one song that he wanted and I wanted to give him the chance to hear the whole thing and decide which ones he wanted) towards the beginning of the year (I really wanna say it was in April or May, somewhere in there). I haven't really started to listen to it until recently. The songs I listen to are:
Most of the time, I'm mostly just listening to the music behind the words.
I just watched Disney's Newsies for the first time and absolutely loved it. Just like a friend of mine, I don't get how it did so poorly. Although, it definitely seems like a movie meant to be aimed at older kids and not the little kid I was when it came out. How does this correlate with what I've been listening to like crazy lately? I've been listening to the soundtrack of Newsies. My favorites have to be:
Carrying the Banner
The World Will Know
King of New York
Seize the Day
Once and For All
One of the other things that really clicked in my mind as I was watching was that the reporter for the Sun played the father in Casper and Christian Bale, who played Jack, was also in Little Women a couple of years later. Call me crazy but I felt smart for making the connection all by myself the first time I watched it. There have been so many times in the last few years where I'll have recognized the actor's face but not remembered what movie I've seen him in or what his name is. I hate when that happens. A friend and I actually had something similar to this happen to us about a week and a half ago or so. It drove us crazy.
Last band: Poets of the Fall (I seem to mention them a lot). I rediscovered one of the songs a couple of weeks ago when I constantly had my iPod on shuffle and it came on. I've been listening to the album like crazy lately because of it.
Psychosis
Fragile
Clevermind
Miss Impossible
Looking at all the songs I've listed, I think I've more than covered the last few posts with a nice baker's dozen of songs (bad luck, anyone?). And there's definitely a variety in the styles of each group.
Now to move past the music. As I was thinking earlier about this last weekend, I realized something: I have become ridiculously patient with a couple of the guys in my life (I'm not gonna name who). I know this is kinda bad to say I wouldn't spend too much time with other people who are like them or are going through what they are or put me through what they do. I just wouldn't bother to put up with it. But I do with them. Especially with the one that I've known longer. After everything we've been through, I'm starting to think that we need each other ways neither one of us thought of. Part of the lyrics to "Fragile" seems fitting for those two and I at the moment:
"So don't hide
If you're scared I'm here beside you
If you get lost I'm here to guide you
And I'll give you peace when peace is fragile"
