Lady Gaga - Speechless

På hennes konsert i Globen (2010) så började hon låten lugnt, bara sittandes vid sitt piano, med ett ljus tänt ovanpå. Sen byggdes det hela tiden upp med mer känsla och fler instrument. På slutet så brann hela pianot och hon stog på pallen och spelade och sjöng. Sån känsla, en sån röst och en sån kväll. Det kommer jag aldrig glömma!
 

And after all the boys and girls
that we’ve been through
Would you give it all up
Could you give it all up

If I promise boy to you
That I’ll never talk again
And I’ll never love again
I’ll never write a song
Won’t even sing along

I’ll never love again
You left me speechless,
so speechless

Boys Like Girls - Up Against the Wall

Sitter och lyssnar på en låt jag aldrig kan tröttna på. Sanningen är den att jag alltid spelar den minst 10 gånger per kväll när jag sitter och skriver på boken. Den passar så bra till handlingen och ger verkligen rätt känsla till min love story. Så, nu gnäller ni inte över att detta är EMO-musik och njuter istället.

And I can't deny your eyes
You know I try to read between the lines
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all

Nikola Sarcevic - Lock-Sport-Krock

It's been a tough time for you
But I've never seen you cry
The last time that I saw you
I never got to say goodbye

You're the reason I am living
And to you I owe a lot
And I'm happy for what you've given
You're everything I've got
You're everything I've got

I haven't done much for you
And I'm afraid I never will
Didn't tell you that I'm sorry
For the part of you I killed

Oh I miss you
I always will
I love you still, brother

Agnelli & Nelson (Paul van Dyk edit) - Holding onto Nothing

Onto/on to. Onto ser mycket coolare ut. Nästan som ett namn.
"Onto, kom in nu, maten är klar!" Ja, det funkar ju!



When we touch
I feel something happen
When we breathe
All the world is undone

Stay with me..
As my heart surrenders
Comfort me
As I fall I cry

When we sleep
Darkness brings us release
All you need
You can find it in me

Stay with me
As my heart surrenders
Comfort me
As I fall I cry 

Standin' in the rain
Twisted and insane
We, are, holdin' onto nothing

Feelin' every breath
Holdin' no regrets
We're, still, lookin' out for something

Hello Saferide - Anna

You know we could have had a daughter
And we could have named her Anna
And she would have been a sweetheart
But with punk rock manners

...

She would have married a Kennedy
She would have found the cure for HIV
Well I'm real sorry Anna, you never got to be
'Cause your daddy moved on and left me

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

Linkin Park - Iridescent

Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life

Först ut på min nya lista blir en riktig klassiker. Videon är rätt söt men gillar man hela "me singing"-grejen på youtube så måste man spana in Meghans version av den här låten. Klicka här för att komma till det klippet.

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said "this is the first day of my life
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy"

So if you want to be with me
With these things there's no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me

Musik har alltid varit en väldigt stor del av mitt liv. Och när jag hittar bra musik så vill jag gärna dela med mig. Gemensamma playlists på Spotify förändrade mitt liv. Okej, kanske inte jättemycket, men det är väldans kul. Just därför har jag skapat en ny kategori här i bloggen som heter 200 Songs, här kommer jag lista tvåhundra låtar som alla är en del av det jag kallar "soundtracket till mitt liv". Eftersom min musiksmak är galet bred så kommer listan såklart bli en väldig blandning med lite av allt.


Jag på våran första spelning, våren 2003.
