going directly from trance to Suzanne Vega can induce serious brain confusion

and I turn to the crowd as they're watching
they're sitting all together in the dark and the warm
and I wanted to be in there among them
I see how their eyes are all gathered into one
and she turns to me with her hand extended
palm is split with a flower with a flame

(oops, that was probably rude of me to post a big chunk of song lyrics in your journal. you can kick my hinder and delete it if you'd like -- I wouldn't be offended).

Post away! :D I'm always on the hunt for new stuff.

I'm the kind of music-listener who tends to be more lyrics-driven than beat or orchestration-driven. I like to listen to the words and I like to sing along. So, I'm likely to be swayed by thoughtful or storylike lyrics.

Guess that's why I like Tori Amos and musicals. :)

Heheh... cool. :) Definitely download "Marlene" if you haven't already. I really love her first cd. I love the opening of the first song, "Cracking"...

it's a one time thing
it just happens
a lot...

If you enjoy her lyrics, I highly recommend her book The Passionate Eye as well. It has lyrics, essays, journal entries. Great stuff.

Hmmm... "Cracking" is so lovely... the MP3 stinks though! Might have to email you for a copy of the CD. :)

Absolutely. I can fill in the rest of your SV collection as well, if you let me know what you do and don't have. :)
