What song are you listening to now?

[amibasuki]

[FONT=arial]recently I've started going through my CD case and listening to all my CD's over again, to see what I think of them now, and to make sure that they still work decently :cross:. but the song I've been listening to the most lately is Linus and Lucy from Peanuts. the whole song is pretty awesome. my dad wants me to learn how to play it, so he got the sheet music and a download to listen to in the mean time.[/FONT]

At the moment, I am listening to Last Dinosaur by the Pillows. I think that it is from the best part of FLCL, the climax of the last episode. Even without the show, its great anytime.

[Shizoku]

All songs on Flcl by the Pillows are awsome. Try to get Hybrid Rainbow by them, it's a great song even though its not on the show.

Me, I'm listening to Gates of Delerium by Yes.
It's a great song. I love Yes because they only have about 3 songs on a whole album lol. The mood changes and you can get into a trance while you listen to a song. I need the cd's though, my dads records are shot.

[size=1]I'm listening to AFI - Silver and Cold.

[i][b]I...I came here by day
But I left here in darkness
And found you, found you on the way
Now...it is silver and silent
It is silver and cold
You in somber resplendence...I hold.

Your sins into me
Oh my beatiful one
Your sins into me
As your rapturous voice escapes I will tremble a prayer,
and I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me
Your sins into me
Oh my beautiful one

Light...like the flutter of wings
Feel your hollow voice rushing
Into me...as your longing to sing
So I...I will paint you in sliver
I will wrap you in cold
I will lift up your voice as...I sink.

Your sins into me
Oh my beatiful one now
Your sins into me
As your rapturous voice escapes I will tremble a prayer,
and I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me
Your sins into me
Oh my beautiful one

(Cold in life's throws)
I fall asleep for you
(Cold in life's throws)
I only ask you turn away
Cold in life's throws
I fall asleep for you
Cold in life's throw
I only ask you turn
As you seep
Into me
Oh my beautiful one now

Your sins into me
Oh my beatiful one
Your sins into me
As your rapturous voice escapes I will tremble a prayer,
and I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me
Your sins into me
Oh my beautiful one
Oh
Your sins into me
Oh my beautiful one
Your sins into me
As your rapturous voice escapes I will tremble a prayer
And I'll beg for forgiveness
Your sins into me
Your sins into
Your sins into me
Your sins into me
Oh my beatiful one[/i][/b]

I've been on an AFI binge lately. I only recently started listening to them and I find them addicting. Not only their sound (their singers voice range is amazing), but they're lyrics also mean a little to me. I don't spend time to analyze them, but if you read the song, you'll understand what I mean.

Also, I enjoy to keep excerpts from songs in my signature, and they have given me an overwhelming supply of choruses and such that I want to use in the future.

I know I've already named this song, but I'm adding the lyrics. It's so cool (I can't believe I said that). The whole CD (of the same name) has so many gospel background vocals and I love them.

So yeah, Young Americans:

They pulled in just behind the bridge
He lays her down, he frowns
"Gee my life's a funny thing, am I still too young?"
He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything, but


All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American

Scanning life through the picture window
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her Ford Mustang, but
Heaven forbid, she'll take anything
But the freak, and his type, all for nothing
He misses a step and cuts his hand, but
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries "Where have all Papa's heroes gone?"

All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American

All the way from Washington
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more?"

All night
He wants the young American
Young American, young American, he wants the young American
All right
He wants the young American

Do you remember, your President Nixon?
Do you remember, the bills you have to pay
Or even yesterday?

Have you have been an un-American?
Just you and your idol singing falsetto 'bout
Leather, leather everywhere, and
Not a myth left from the ghetto
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor
In case, just in case of depression?
Sit on your hands on a bus of survivors
Blushing at all the afro-Sheeners
Ain't that close to love?
Well, ain't that poster love?
Well, it ain't that Barbie doll
Her heart's been broken just like you have

All night
You want the young American
Young American, young American, you want the young American
All right
You want the young American

You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler
A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler
Black's got respect, and white's got his soul train
Mama's got cramps, and look at your hands ache
(I heard the news today, oh boy)
I got a suite and you got defeat
Ain't there a man you can say no more?
And, ain't there a woman I can sock on the jaw?
And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging?
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die?
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces?
Ain't there one damn song that can make me
break down and cry?

All night
I want the young American
Young American, young American, I want the young American
All right
I want the young American

I love this lyric -- "We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more?"

And many others. There are some really great parts in this song.
