kaylle gave me the letter
A. Under cuts (if this works properly) are youtube vids of the songs, if you don't know them! This was actually a bit harder to do than I imagined.
I could not do the letter A without first mentioning one of my favourite Counting Crows (if not favourite of all time) songs:
1.
( Anna Begins - Counting Crows )from the very beginning of this song with the lyrics "My friend assures me, it's all or nothing, but I am not worried. I am not overly concerned." This song hooks me in.
And then there's this line, "
Everytime she sneezes I believe it's love." It reminds me of a time when we were seven and boys were icky and I punched Quinn (my husband) in the face for one reason or another. To this day, he says that's when he realized that he'd love me forever. Seriously? I just gave you two black eyes and a bloody nose, and *that's* when you've pledged your heart to me for life? What a sick, masochistic lion. ;) And he's all mine!
2.>
( Alone - Heart )There's a reason that this song, written more than twenty years ago, has been covered by everyone and their mother. It's a freaking fantastic song!
3.>
( Ants Marching - Dave Matthews )A song about people who lead a monotonous life, doing the same things the same way, day after day. They never take risks and are content living this way until they die. Something to think about.
4.>
( All I Want - Toad The Wet Sprocket )While not my fav Toad song, I'm pretty sure it was the reason I bought the album. "Nothings so loud, as hearing when we lie. The truth is not kind, and you've said neither am i." The lyrics do speak to life... I like it.
5.>
( Amhran na bhFiann )This is the way it's meant to be heard! Always brings a little tear to my eye.
