Old Music (Still Good Music): Alanis Morissette - "Thank U"...
Sometimes you have to go through something extremely heavy to have perspective like this.
How bout getting off of these antibiotics
How bout stopping eating when I'm full up
How bout them transparent dangling carrots
How bout that ever elusive kudo
Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
How bout me not blaming you for everything
How bout me enjoying the moment for once
How bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
How bout grieving it all one at a time
Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
The moment I let go of it was
The moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it was
The moment I touched down
How bout no longer being masochistic
How bout remembering your divinity
How bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How bout not equating death with stopping
Thank you India
Thank you providence
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence
yeah yeah
ahh ohhh
ahhh ho oh
ahhh ho ohhhhhh
yeaahhhh yeahh

Old Music (Still Good Music): Death Cab For Cutie - "Blacking Out The Friction/Brand New Love"...
At the 3 minute mark of this song, Death Cab switches instantly to a cover of the Sebadoh song "Brand New Love". This song is locked into my Top 100 songs FOREVER (probably Top 50 really). My emotional connection to this song is so intense that it could probably lift a heavy object by itself.
'Brand New Love'
Restless eyes close, maybe it'll go away...
Please rest tomorrow, bring a satisfying day
The restless urge of love that's worth the burning for
Surely it's that one consuming love to give you more
Any thought could be the beginning
Of the brand new tangled web you're spinning
Anyone could be a brand new love
Any tithe that holds can be broken
Tear your bitter world to the open
Anyone could be a brand new love
You won't be the first, your twisted change is normal
Gossan dirt, whispered to the nodding head
Thrilled you fell apart, instead of them
But they will...
Any hope for love can be killed
If you need a different face
It's definite time to destroy this place
Any thought could be the beginning
Of the brand new tangled web you're spinning
Anyone could be a brand new love
Follow what you feel, you alone decide what's real
Anyone can be a brand new love
