Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: We No Who U R

tree don’t care what a little bird sings / we go down with the due in the morning light / the tree don’t know what the little bird brings / we go down with the due in the morning

and we breathe, in it / there is no need to forgive / breathe, in it, there is no need to forgive
and we breathe, in it / there is no need to forgive / breathe, in it, there is no need to forgive

the trees will stand like ṗleading hands / we go down with the due in the morning light / the trees all stand like ṗleading hands / we go down with the due in the morning light

and we breathe it in / there is no need to forgive / breathe it in, there is no need to forgive
and we breathe it in / there is no need to forgive / breathe it in, there is no need to forgive 

the trees will burn with blackened hands / we return with the light of the evening / the trees will burn blackened hands / nowhere to rest, with nowhere to land

and we know who you are / and we know where you live / and we know there’s no need to forgive 
and we know who you are / and we know where you live / and we know there’s no need to forgive

and we know who you are / and we know where you live / and we know there’s no need to forgive
and we know who you are / and we know where you live / and we know there’s no need to forgive again [x]

Chris Isaak: Wicked Game

x

This song is incredible. Incredible voice, incredible music. It touches my heart.

the world was on fire and no one could save me but you / it's strange what desire will make foolish people do / I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you / and I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you 

no, I don't want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / no, I don't want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / with you (this world is only gonna break your heart) 

what a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way / what a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you / what a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way / what a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and

I want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / no, I want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / with you

the world was on fire and no one could save me but you / it's strange what desire will make foolish people do / I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you / and I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you  

no, I want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / no, I want to fall in love (this world is only gonna break your heart) / with you (this world is only gonna break your heart) / no, I ... (this world is only gonna break your heart) / (this world is only gonna break your heart) [x]

Eels: My Timing Is Off

Florence + The Machine: Hardest of Hearts

x

Florence, Paintings and Snow

This weekend was a very tough one -- but a nicely tough one.

x

x

It started with Florence + The Machine on Saturday -- yes, I got tickets (since May or so, to be honest) and I went with my one best friend. And it was such a great experience.

We stood before the mixer, nearly in the middle and around us strangely few people were. Additionally we moved a lot during the really fantastic supporting act and both lead to enough space for us. Which we completly used.

During Florence's performance we jumped up and down, danced, sang (badly of course), cheered and had fun. The people around us where kind of squares and barely moved at all but that was okay, we had fun though. And my friend was cool, she really was casual and danced and so (which I hadn't seen before ^^).

We also clapped a lot (especially during The Dog Days Are Over) and due a ring on my one hand, my other hand hurt Sunday. In the evening my neck sucked. ;)

But overall I had a very great night, full of awesome songs and endorphins.

(See some awesome pictures here - not mine! ;) )

I really wanted to sleep for like the whole Sunday -- but I needed to get my painting finished. 

For my Arts course I needed to paint a big picture and the fact that I'm very bad at drawing and painting didn't help me at all. The good thing was that there wasn't water at my school (I guess because of construction works) and we had no school, consequentially I worked the whole Monday on that damn thing. And I actually finished it! 

I'm relieved it's over but I need to present a real analysis of it and I really don't like that. I don't want to deal to much with it anymore.

And the most awesome thing (next to Florence) also started on Saturday.

SNOW!

The first few flakes fell on Saturday morning and were away around midday. On Sunday afternoon it finally really snowed (with white cars, trees, roofs and so) and it still is there! Of course it's not much, but nevertheless, snow! 

This night I woke up and the clouds were weird orange coloured, I dragged me up and looked out of the window -- aaaaah, it snowed again! I just love the weather right now. (And the fact that the train has troubles again is actually kind of fun.)

Due the construction works -- or maybe by mistake -- there's only water in the school's basement but plentiful! So, I again have a school-free day. Which isn't bad of course, I can write a post again and I will start with my Christmas presents. Oh, how good I actually feel!

Asaf Avidan: One Day / Reckoning Song (Wankelmut Remix)

(german ones please listen here)

one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told
one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told

no more tears, my heart is dry / I don't laugh and I don't cry / I don't think about you all the time / but when I do, I wonder why
no more tears, my heart is dry / I don't laugh and I don't cry / I don't think about you all the time / but when I do, I wonder why
no more tears, my heart is dry / I don't laugh and I don't cry / I don't think about you all the time / but when I do, I wonder why

one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told
one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told
one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told
one day baby, we'll be old / oh baby, we'll be old / and think of all the stories that we could have told ... [x]

It Is Winter Now

Hereby I decide that it's winter, that it's christmas, that the nicest part of the year starts. And what does that mean? Yes, right, a design change.
This time I've done something ... different, I mean, it's just my third winter here but by different I also mean something different than for all the seasons which were featured on Monday Roses.
I used the snow picture as background, header and footer and the effect is quite interesting I think.

So now I start doing what I also do in the mid of November. I wait for snow. Actually, it already is very cold and there already is ice on the car's windows in the morning - but still, snow misses.

Tori Amos: Bouncing Off Clouds

bouncing off of clouds we were / is there a love lost and found
make it easy / make this easy / it's not as heavy as it seems / wrapped in metal / wrapped in ivy / paint it in mint ice cream

we could be bouncing off the top of this cloud / I'll put on my silver / we could be bouncing off the top of this cloud

failure to respond but / I did but did you listen

bouncing off the top of this cloud / I'll put on my silver / about what you said, has it come to this? / I'll put on my silver / bouncing off the top of this cloud

well you can stare all day at the sky / but that won't bring her back / that won't bring her back / you say you're waiting on fate / but I think fate is now / I think fate is now / waiting on us

make it easy / easy easy / we could make this easy / easy love easy / we could make this easy / make this easy / it's not as heavy as it seems / wrapped in metal / wrapped in ivy / blue umbrellas now smiling

we could be bouncing off the top of this cloud / I'll put on my silver / about what you said, has it come to this? / I'll put on my silver

bouncing off the top of this cloud / I'll put on my silver / about what you said, has it come to this? / I'll put on my silver / bouncing off the top of this cloud
