Ok so I bet you didn't expect to see me up here did you?

This is from Depeche Mode's Songs of Faith and Devotion and I just think it fits...


I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

"Oh, you know what I'm talking about. In this city you better learn to get along. Because LA's got it all: The glamour and the grit, the big breaks and the heartaches, the sweet young lovers and the nasty, ugly, hairy fiends that suck out your brain through your face. It's all part of the big wacky variety show we call - Los Angeles. You never know what's coming next. And lets admit it folks: Isn't that why we love it?"

Welcome to Caritas

Well inspired by my favourite quote so far from Season 2 of Angel, and also all this talk about a Musical LABN I thought, "Hey wouldn't it be fun to have a Karaoke Bar like Caritas in LABN?" Well until that happens it will just have to be here, in the Member's Lounge.

So come on, if your LABN character would get up and sing a song in Caritas, what would it be and why?

Have Fun :D

"Rest In Peace"

I died so many years ago,
You can make me feel
Like it isn't so.
Why you come to be with me
I think I finally know.

You're scared.
Ashamed of what you feel.
You can't tell the ones you love,
You know they couldn't deal.
Whisper in a dead man's ear,
That doesn't make it real.

That's great,
But I don't wanna play.
Being with you touches me,
more than I can say,
But since I'm only dead to you,
I'm saying stay away,
And let me rest in peace.

Let me rest in peace,
Let me get some sleep.
Let me take my love and bury it,
In a hole 6 foot deep.
I can lay my body down,
But I can't find my sweet release.
So let me rest in peace.

You know you got a willing slave,
And you just love to play the thought that you might misbehave.
Until you do I'm telling you,
Stop visiting my grave.
And let me rest in peace.

I know I should go but I follow you,
Like a man possessed.
There's a traitor here beneath my breast,
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed.
If my heart could beat it would break my chest,
But I can see you're unimpressed.
So leave me be.

And let me rest in peace.
Let me get some sleep.
In a hole 6 foot deep.
I can lay my body down,
But I can't find my sweet release.
Let me rest in peace.
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace.

Song for Kate

Heather's picture

I was thinking about songs that Tash might sing, and thought of this new song by Bachelor Girl (you guys may not have heard it yet - they're an Aussie group). It's not a song for Tash, but I thought it fitted Kate perfectly.... :)

Well, let's be honest. It fits most women really. But I especially like the X-File reference for Kate. :lol:

I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl), I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl).

I might be a little concerned with my hair,
I might need comfort, more than my share,
I might seem to follow fashion, but claim that I don't care,
My heart is your best friend when it rules my head.

I might wanna talk a lot, don't ask me why,
And I'll get impatient if you don't reply,
I might always search for something wrong I want you to deny,
And if you love me, just stay close and hold me when I cry.

Don't try to understand me, I'm just a girl,
One of the greatest mysteries you'll find in this world.
I'm not hard to handle, I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl).

I don't seek money, but I want your time,
'Cause I'd give my life for you when you are mine.
And it hurts me more than I can say when you pull away,
But if you love me, you should tell me everyday.

Don't try to understand me, I'm just a girl,
One of the greatest mysteries you'll find in this world.
I'm not hard to handle, I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl).

You might think I'm too demanding, but you're just not understanding, no.

I might like to take advice but go my own way,
And it's when I hurt the most, I swear I'm okay.
And it's always when you least expect, I say I wanna stay,
It might take just a single kiss to steal my heart away.

Don't try to understand me, I'm just a girl,
One of the greatest mysteries you'll find in this world.
You think I'm an X-File, but I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl).
Don't try, don't try to understand me, I'm just a girl (I'm just a girl),
One of the greatest mysteries you'll find in this world.
I'm not, I'm not hard to handle (handle), I'm just a girl.

I'm just a girl, yeah, I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl.

It took a lot of careful consideration but I have finally hit on the song Victor would sing:

Addicted To Love
( Robert Palmer )

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

You see the signs, but you can't read
You're runnin' at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind
You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

[break]

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
You're heart sweats, your teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine
Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

Meredith Bell's picture

Okay, despite Heather's most gratious offer... :D I've been re-living my college days with a walk down the Kookie Street of Bjork... Well here is a nice depressive song, but one very appropriate to Los Angeles I think...

Play Dead, by Bjork

"Darling stop confusing me
With your wishful thinking
Hopeful embraces
Don't you understand?
I have to go through this
I belong to here where
No-one cares and no-one loves
No light no air to live in
A place called hate
The City of Fear

I play dead
It stops the hurting
I play dead
And the hurting stops

It's sometimes just like sleeping
Curling up inside my private tortures
I nestle into pain
Hug suffering
Caress every ache

I play dead
It stops the hurting"

Karaoke Bar

Mantheana's picture

Not specificly a good one for mantheana, I thought this would be a great track for a vampiress or some one. One of my favourite Sneaker Pimps tracks, This is '6 Underground'

Take me down, 6 underground,
The ground beneath your feet,
Laid out low, nothing to go
Nowhere a way to meet
I've got a head full of drought,
Down here, so faroff losing out
Round here,

Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace

Calm me down, bring it round
Too way high off your street
I can see like nothing else
In me you're better than I wannabe
Don't think 'cos I understand,
I care, don't think 'cos I'm talking we're friends,

Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace

Talk me down, safe and sound
Too strung up to sleep
Wear me out, scream and shout
Swear my time's never cheap
I fake my life like I've lived
Too much, I take whatever you're given
Not enough,

Overground, watch this space,
I'm open to falling from grace

"gorecki" by lamb

Jadyn's picture

this has always been one of my all time favourites songs... "gorecki" by lamb... :)

if i should die this very moment
i wouldn't fear
for i've never known completeness
like being here
wrapped in the warmth of you
loving every breath of you
still in my heart this moment
or it might burst
could we stay right here
until the end of time until the earth stops turning
wanna love you until the seas run dry
i've found the one i've waited for

all this time i've loved you
and never known your face
all this time i've missed you
and searched this human race
here is true peace
here my heart knows calm
safe in your soul
bathed in your sighs
wanna stay right here
until the end of time
'til the earth stops turning
gonna love you until the seas run dry
i've found the one i've waited for
the one i've waited for

all i've known
all i've done
all i've felt was leading to this
all i've known
all i've done
all i've felt was leading to this
wanna stay right here
'til the end of time 'till the earth stops turning
i'm gonna love you till the seas run dry
i've found the one i've waited for
the one i've waited for
the one i've waited for

Hesch's Sing-a-long:

It's your own worst enemy
Ringing the bell on the door
And the person inside says "Nobody's Home"
So your own worst enemy peeks inside
And sees you softly weeping
As the music fills the room
And the song they played
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going:
"Precious and few are the moments that you and your own worst enemy share."

Full bottle in front of me
Time to roll up my sleeves and get to work
And after many glasses of work
I get paid
In the brain
And the song they played
Is that guy with the messed up face
Going:
"Precious and few are the moments that you and your own worst enemy share."
It's your own worst enemy

--TMBG's "Own Worst Enemy"

Bloody Obvious

Firefly's picture

Well, this should be bloody obvious, anyway. Here's the demon everyone loves to hate...Ryan aka The Night Walker singing The Police...

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take

I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay

I'll be watching you

O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake

I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep on crying baby, baby please

O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake

I'll be watching you

Every move you make
Every step you take

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

{begin fade out}

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you

Smashing Pumpkins...Bullet with Butterfly Wings <- this is pretty close to the feelings Reah tries to keep hidden :evil:

The world is a vampire, Sent to drain
Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
And what do i get, for my pain
Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
Even though i know-i suppose i'll show
All my cool and cold-like old job

Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
And someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

Now i'm naked, nothing but an animal
But can you fake it, for just one more show
And what do you want, i want to change
And what have you got
When you feel the same
Even though i know-i suppose i'll show
All my cool and cold like old job

Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
And someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

Tell me i'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son
Tell me i'm the chosen one
Jesus was an only son for you

Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
And someone will say what is lost can never be saved
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a
Despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

Tell me i'm the only one
Tell me there's no other one
Jesus was an only son

And i still believe that i cannot be saved
And i still believe that i cannot be saved
And i still believe that i cannot be saved
And i still believe that i cannot be saved

Have to confess, not sure what Galen would sing - maybe Witchcraft if Kate was around. :) This is for the manipulator, Alaric.

Master of Puppets
Metallica

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction

Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror

Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Master, master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season

I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

(which i've done)

"Tainted Love"

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
I've lost my lights
I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a girl could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
You think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a girl could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love

Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a girl could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love"Tainted Love"

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
I've lost my lights
I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to

Finally decided on one.

Heather's picture

OK, I've been thinking about songs for Tash and have discarded plenty. But I've finally settled on 'Be the Man'. The lyrics suit Tash's situation pretty well, with the added irony that Victor isn't actually a man. :)

***

I would fight not to ever fall too deep
Never sure that love would grow
Now at night as I lay me down to sleep
I could never let you go

And lying here with you,
I still can't believe it's true
Never thought that I would ever
Find a love that lasts forever

Be the man that's mine
Find the love that never goes away
Be the heart I know will be
The one that beats for me, be the man

Used to be scared if I would ever get this close
I'm not afraid to touch you now

Long before I knew
I'd be making love to you
I dreamed that maybe I would one day
Lose myself in someone, someday

Be the man that's mine
I always try to find the love that never goes away
Be the heart I know will be
The one that beats for me, be the man

Take me where I have never been
I will follow you, you'll never be alone
I will run, run to you
I never thought that I would ever
Find a love that lasts forever

Be the man that's mine
I always try to find the love that never goes away
Tell me we will always be together
Make us stay in love this way forever
Be the heart I know will be
The one that beats for me
Wherever you may be
Always be with me, be the man

I have yet to think of a song for Jess but I thought 'Under The Bridge' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers kinda suits the LABN world.

Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away

Sam's refrain, another TMBG song, describing his deceitful wife that brought him to a world of facades, World's Address:

I know you deceived me, couldn't sleep last night
Now my tear stains on the wall reflect an ugly sight
I can see your secrets
No need to confess
Everyone looks naked when you know the world's address

The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll repeat it for those who may not have already guessed
The world's address

Life's parade of fashion just leaves me depressed
Under every garment I can see the world's address
Call the men of science and let them hear this song
Tell them Albert Einstein and Copernicus were wrong

The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll repeat it for those who may not have already guessed
The world's address

Call the men of science and let them hear this song
Tell them Albert Einstein and Copernicus were wrong

The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll repeat it for those who may not have already guessed

The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll say it one more time for those who may not have already guessed
The world's address

AFter coming to the conclusion that tons of songs apply to Mantheana coz 90% of songs are bout luv in some form or other. So i thouhgt I'd try and find one that applies to something other than what she would say to mikhail. I was listening to my old winamp and thought that 'pure shores' by all saints kinda applied to the fact that she's been hurt and is still shy, but she wants to find happiness in some one who will make her feel warm (take her to her beach) ne hoo, just my thoughts.

I've crossed the deserts for miles
Swam water for time
Searching places to find
A piece of something to call mine
(I'm coming)
A piece of something to call mine
(I'm coming)
(I'm coming)
Coming closer to you

Went along many moors
Walked through many doors
The place where I wanna be
Is the place I can call mine
(I'm coming)
Is the place I can call mine
(I'm coming)
(I'm coming)
Coming closer to you

I'm moving
I'm coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It's calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I'm coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you

Never been here before
I'm intrigued, I'm unsure
I'm searching for more
I've got something thats all mine
I've got something thats all mine

Take me somewhere I can breathe
I've got so much to see
This is where I want to be
In a place I can call mine
In a place I can call mine

I'm moving
I'm coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It's calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I'm coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you

Moving, coming
Can you hear what I hear?
(Hear it out of reach)
I hear it calling you
Swimming closer to you

Many faces I have seen
Many places I have been
Walked the deserts, swam the shores
(Coming closer to you)
Many faces I have know
Many way in which I've grown
Moving closer on my own
(Coming closer to you)

I move it
I feel it
I'm coming
Not drowning

I move it
I feel it
I'm coming
Not drowning

I'm moving
I'm coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It's calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I'm coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
(Take me to my beach)

I'm moving
I'm coming
Can you hear, what I hear
It's calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it, calling you
I'm coming not drowning
Swimming closer to you
(Take me to my beach)

on another thought i completely agree wit alice on the who 'under the bridge' thing. Iw would be great for a theme tune for LA By Night. WHen most of the characters start off in LA they are all lonley and all they have is the city..... :cry: aww... depressing song....

Ryan gets up and stands before the crowd. One lonely female with long red hair sits at the bar. Only the Host is really paying attention, the other patrons are two self absorbed in alcohol or their woes to care.

"This is dedicated to my darling Daye." says Ryan.

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for a week
I was drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

(Heart Shaped Box by Nirvana)

Lorne turns around and says to Daye at the bar, "Honey, I'd run if I were you." But she only has eyes for Ryan as he snuggles up next to her at the bar.

Aww man, do you have any idea how much I love that song by Nirvana?
It is my very favourite. Ryan does not deserve it (hehe). Praise to Kurt Cobain.

Sam's turn at the mike

Firefly's picture

Clearing his throat nervously, our resident loser steps into the floodlights, looking sallow and sweating profusely. He stumbles, falters, and finally begins, each note rings with fury and despair...

From the very first moment I saw you
I knew our love would be so strong
And the very first moment I kissed you
I knew our joy would last so long

And then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen Boy

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve

When I saw you hanging round the truck stop
Shining like an angel in the night
And when I saw you crying like a baby
I knew you'd have to be my wife

Then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen Boy

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Go on have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve

Now I think I'm going to have to leave you
Because I'm feeling much to weak to share
And the pie, oh it's cut in too many pieces
The flavour that I crave is no longer there

Then I saw you making love to two of my best friends
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to a group of my best friends
So I looked them right in their eyes and I said
Listen here, group

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Go on have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve

*song lyrics couresy of Meatloaf "More Than You Deserve"

And now for Daye

Firefly's picture

Daye steps up to the mike. From a dark corner, Drew watches, his face a mask of anguish. At the table in front of the stage, Ryan sits, the spotlight on him as well as her. She stares into his eyes and starts to sing.

Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

The couples take the stage, each pair smiling into one another's eyes. As a group, they burst into a jazzy song and dance number...

Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

In Spain, the best upper sets do it
Lithuanians and Letts do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Fins
Folks in Siam do it - think of Siamese twins

Some Argentines, without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - Waiter bring me
"shad roe"

In shallow shoals English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Pull me under

I promise I'll behave

Love's great ocean

Here in the ocean

I'm dreaming of you

Tarix Conny's picture

Well, if Tarix was singing, I am sure she would sing this song as it is totally suiting her. It is from the musical Cats.

Midnight. Not a sound from the pavement.
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone.
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan.

Memory. All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days,
I was beautiful then.
I remember the time I knew what happiness was,
Let the memory live again.

Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning.
Someone mutters and a street lamp gutters and soon it will be morning.

Daylight. I must wait for the sunrise,
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in.
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin.

Burnt out ends of smokey days, the stale cold smell of morning.
The street lamp dies, another night is over, another day is dawning.

Touch me. It's so easy to leave me
All alone with the memory
Of my days in the sun.
If you touch me you'll understand what happiness is.
Look, a new day has begun.

I couldn't help but post this up for Maria.

maria walks up to the mic, lowers it so that its level with her head, curtsies and begins.....

Sometimes I feel you’re not listening
Sometimes I feel you don’t understand
But I think I’ve got the answer
Already know what you’re gonna say

‘Cause I’m just a little girl you see
But there’s a hell of a lot more to me
Don’t ever underestimate what I can do
Don’t ever tell me how I’m meant to be

You say I’m just a little girl, just a little girl
How can I compare? What do I know?
What have I got to share?
But there’s nothing in this world, nothing in this world
That could hold me down, can’t you hear me?
Don’t you understand
That I wanna be myself, wanna be the girl,
Wanna be the one that you can rely on
How I wish that you could see all there is of me
How I long to hear that you take me
For who I am

‘Cause I’m just a little girl you see
But there’s a hell of a lot more to me
Don’t ever underestimate what I can do
Don’t ever tell me how I’m meant to be

‘Cause I’m just a little girl you see
But there’s a hell of a lot more to me
Don’t ever underestimate what I can do
Don’t ever tell me how I’m meant to be

Sometimes I feel you’re not listening
Sometimes I feel you don’t understand

‘Cause I’m just a little girl you see
But there’s a hell of a lot more to me
Don’t ever underestimate what I can do
Don’t ever tell me how I’m meant to be

‘Cause I’m just a little girl you see
But there’s a hell of a lot more to me
Don’t ever underestimate what I can do
Don’t ever tell me how I’m meant to be

Maria: thank you muchly.

If Sid is a 'Gumby Cat' does that mean his name is Jennyanydots? And if so, is his coat of a tabby kind? With tiger stripes and leopard spots?

Does he like the warm and sunny spots?

Does he wind and tie the curtain cord into sailor knots?

I can remember reading T.S Elliot's 'Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats' to my cousin when she was ill... :D

I've got a Siddy Cat in mind
His name is Jeffrey Frederick Haines
His coat if of the trench coat kind
He goes by different pseudo-names
Sometimes he's Jeff
Sometimes Jeffrey
Sometimes he's Sam
Or Simply Sid
Too self-centered too be grand

And that's why he'll always be a kid
That's why he'll ne-ver be more than a KID...

They say there's a song for every occasion. And I've found one that fits Tash's current state of mind with regard to Victor. (That is, when she still believes he's leaving her for good.) *sniff*

I want to know why
You're letting this die
Without the blink of an eye
You say that you need time
I say you'll be fine

If you would only see
Like you did before
You became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does
And why that isn't what
You've been thinking of
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what was
Is it never worth the pain
Could you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us

Once we were one mind
Drifting in one time
And ever true
We were friends
But something is gone from my
Picture of this life

If we could only see
Like we did before
We became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does
And why that isn't what
You've been thinking of
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what was
Is it never worth the pain
Could you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us

The hope has vanished from your eyes
You were my faith and one truth
There's every reason to get through
And you're why I know there's a reason

If we could only see
Like we did before
We became imprisoned
Can I reopen the door

You say it doesn't matter
Then tell me what does
And why that isn't what
You've been thinking of
You say it's never easy
Then tell me what was
Is it never worth the pain
Could you believe it was
When life keeps living
That's what life keeps giving
To us

You Are the Sunshine of My Life
Writer: Stevie Wonder

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart

I know that this is the beginning
Though I loved you for one million years
But if I thought our love was ending
I'd find myself drowning in my own tears

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart

You must have known that I was lonely
Because you came to my rescue
And though I know that this is heaven
How could so much love be inside of you

You are the sunshine of my life
That's why I'll always be around
You are the apple of my eye
Forever you'll stay (be) in my heart

('Cause you are)
You are the sunshine - of my life
(Of my life, of my life)

Another Bachelor Girl song. This one's very apt for Tash in her current state. She desperately needs help, but Victor's busy giving her space...

Drowning, Not Waving

This ain’t stupid girl talk
So don’t try and tell me so
I don’t want to be rejected
Cos I let my feelings show

I’m just trying to reach you
Cos I’m in need of you now

Time won’t be an answer
Let’s talk about it here and now
Just try to be openhearted
We’ll figure this out somehow

I’m just trying to reach you
Cos I’m in over my head

I’m drowning, not waving
I’m drowning, not waving
Not bending, I am breaking
It’s an easy mistake to make
I’m crying, not laughing
I’m falling, not faking
I’m drowning not just waving
Won’t you be my lifeguard?

This ain’t stupid girl talk
So don’t try and shrug it off
You can’t just hold back the changes
Nothing stays the way it was

What I feel is an ocean
And I’m in over my head

I’m drowning, not waving
I’m drowning, not waving
Not bending, I am breaking
It’s an easy mistake to make
I’m crying, not laughing
I’m falling, not faking
I’m drowning not just waving
Won’t you be my lifeguard?

I see another version of me
Who’s only a day away
Stronger, a little wiser I guess
Someone who feels OK

But right now
I’m drowning, not waving
I’m falling, not faking
I’m drowning not just waving
Won’t you be my lifeguard?

Kate takes the mic, mellow music begins to play... "This is a song that got me through some tough times over the last few months..."

Stronger by The Sugababes

I'll make it through the rainy days
I'll be the one who stands here longer than the rest
When my landscape changes, rearranges
I'll be stronger than I've ever been
No more stillness, more sunlight,
Everything's gonna be alright

I know that there's gonna be a change
Better find your way out of your fear
If you wanna come with me
Then that's the way it's gotta be
I'm all alone and finally
I'm getting stronger
You'll come to see
Just what I can be
I'm getting stronger

Sometimes I feel so down and out
Like emotion that's been captured in a maze
I had my ups and downs
Trials and tribulations
I overcome it day by day,
Feeling good and almost powerful
A new me, that's what I'm looking for.

I know that there's gonna be a change
Better find your way out of your fear
If you wanna come with me
Then that's the way it's gotta be
I'm all alone and finally
I'm getting stronger
You'll come to see
Just what I can be
I'm getting stronger

I didn't know what I had to do
I just knew I was alone
People around me
But they didn't care
So I searched into my soul
I'm not that type of girl that will let them see her cry
It's not my style
I get by
See I'm gonna do this for me

I'm all alone and finally
I'm getting stronger
You'll come to see
Just what I can be
I'm getting stronger

I'm all alone and finally
I'm getting stronger
You'll come to see
Just what I can be
I'm getting stronger...

Sweet Transvestite - Rocky Horror Picture Show

How d'you do, I see you've met my faithful handyman
He's just a little brought down because when you knocked
He thought you were the candyman.
Don't get strung out by the way that I look,
Don't judge a book by its cover
I'm not much of a man by the light of day,
But by night I'm one hell of a lover

I'm just a Sweet Transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania.

So let me show you around, maybe play you a sound
You look like you're both pretty groovy
Or if you want something visual that's not too abysmal
We could take in an old Steve Reeves movie.

I'm glad we caught you at home, could we use your phone?
We're both in a bit of a hurry.
We'll just say where we are, then go back to the car
We don't want to be any worry.

So you got caught with a flat, well, how about that?
Well babies, don't you panic.
By the light of the night when it all seems alright
I'll get you a satanic mechanic.

I'm just a Sweet Transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania.

So why don't you stay for the night? Or maybe a bite?
I could show you my favourite obsession.
I've been making a man with blond hair and a tan
And he's good for relieving my tension

I'm just a Sweet Transvestite from Transexual, Transylvania.

I heard this song on the radio complete with colors and had to share it. Its the new Foo Fighter's single "All My Life"

All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes, never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies, but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope

All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around and it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost

Calm down, don't you resist
You've such a delicate wrist
And if I give it a twist

Something to hold when I lose my grip
Will I find something in there?
To give me just what I need
Another reason to bleed
One by one hidden up my sleeve x2

(chorus
Hey don't let it go to waste
I love it but I hate the taste
Weight, keeping me down) x2

Will I find a believer?
Another one who believes
Another one to deceive
Over and over down on my knees
If I get any closer
And if you open up wide
And if you let me inside
On and on I got nothing to hide x2

(chorus)x2

All my life I've been searching for something
Something never comes, never leads to nothing
Nothing satisfies, but I'm getting close
Closer to the prize at the end of the rope

All night long I dream of the day
When it comes around and it's taken away
Leaves me with the feeling that I feel the most
Feel it come to life when I see your ghost

Then I'm done done, on to the next one
Done done, and I'm on to the next one x6
Done I'm done, and I'm on to the next
Done done on to the next one
Done I'm done, and I'm on to the next one
Done done on to the next one
Done I'm done, and I'm on to the next

(chorus)x2

Done I'm done, and I'm on to the next
Done done on to the next one

I think this kinda applies to manthy's thoughts that she denies but still feels anyway. Ok so mabye many wouldn't word it ezzacly like this although some of the words fit very aptly, Being a Nine Inch Nails fan I had to put it up anyway. here you go:

*Mantheana's imagine runs and she thinks of what would happen if she sung the words that she dreads to think. IN here mind she steps up to the mic.*

I still recall the taste of my tears.
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears.
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore.
scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore.

[Chorus:]
come on tell me.
make this all go away.
you make this all go away.
i'm down to just to thing.
and i'm starting to scare myself.
make this all go away.
you make this all go way.

i just want something.
i just want something i can never have
you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now.
this is slowly take me apart.
grey would be the color if i had a heart.
i just want something i can never have.
in this place it seems like such a same.
though it all looks different now,
i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see.
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be.

[Chorus]

i just want something.
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have
think i know what you meant.
that night on my bed.
still picking at this scab
i wish you were dead.
you sweet and perry ellis.
just stains on my sheets.

OK, I am so totally not having a NIN fest... ok so I am, but that doesnt mean that these lyrics dont fit how manthy feels towards maria. I was supprised at how apt these seemed, as there are only like one or two snags...

Manthy steps up to the mic.

"er, this is a song devoted to my little daughter Maria. hi baby" *waves* Here we go...

she shines
in a world full of ugliness
she matters when everything is meaningless

fragile
she doesn't see her beauty
she tries to get away
sometimes
it's just that nothing seems worth saving
I can't watch her slip away

I won't let you fall apart

she reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by
hoping someone can see
if I could fix myseld I'd - but it's too late for me

I wont let you fall apart

we'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide
I'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking...

it's something I have to do
I was there, too
before everyhting else
I was like you

'the fragile' by Nine Inch Nails

oh and I just heard that foo fighters song. Man it rocks. and is so totally vic/vrithtek! nice call Dave!

Doughty's "Frog and Banjo"

Sid's theme song lately.

-----------------------------
[Slow, somber guitar begins and continues without much variation]

There are many sad things
Like a child drowning in a vat of mollases
(Other voice: How would a child end up in a vat of mollases?)
Or if you were to lose the phone number of someone you find intriguing
(Other voice: I'm sure it's in the laundry)
Or a phone that just keeps ringing and ringing and ringing and ringing and no one will answer
(Other voice: Very lonely)
Sad like the zero on the LED display of your answering machine
(Other voice: That's a very melancholy numeral)
Sad like the photograph of your grandfather at the age of 27

But I believe and I believe strongly
(Other voice: he's trying to make a point here)
There is nothing sadder than a frog plucking a banjo
(Other voice: Fro-o-o-og)
That's about as sad as you can be
A frog plucking a banjo
Let us contemplate the sadness
Of a banjo playing frog
Let us examine the sadness
It's extremely sad
(Other voice: When the banjo is plucked by the frog)

Is the frog aware that he is sad?
(Other voice: I believe that he is aware)
Well I'm not so sure you're correct about that
(Other voice: What is that?)
I really don't think a frog that plays a banjo is quite so self-aware

I suddenly can't shake the picture of Kermit playing "Rainbow Connection" from my mind...

Me too, Dave. Sadly, me too.

I wonder what we would have done if Doc Whats-his-name actually caught Kermit and ate his froggy legs? That would have been sad.

I just downloaded Foo Fighter's My Life. I never would have given that song another listen had you not seen value in it. And yes, now I hear the Victor in there! I'm going to start a new folder of MP3's. I'm going to start collecting these songs, I think, and burn a CD called LABN Soundtrack. What a great mood enhancer for when we read and write.

Man, when the chorus picked up, I totally pictured Victor getting ready to walk out of poor Tash's life. Maybe it's just becase that's where the story is right now, but it was so neat. Music helps me visualize, and now I'm certain that I AM going to make this CD.

Keep making your suggestions, and I'll choose some of them to download and burn. (Just don't inundate me with irrelevent music. Just stuff that strikes you as LABN related.)

Thanks, all!

heh, just thought that this song was pretty apt for BOTH jade and me right now... seriously overworked here...

Dolly Parton - 9 to 5

Tumble outta bed
And stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawnin', stretchin', try to come to life
Jump in the shower
And the blood starts pumpin'
Out on the streets
The traffic starts jumpin'
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Workin' 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by
It's all takin'
And no givin'
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life
And you think about it, don't you
It's a rich man's game
No matter what they call it
And you spend your life
Putting money in his wallet...

Okay, this is another number for... well, it should be obvious who. Just for the topical reference. :)

Unmarked Helicopters - Soul Coughing

Whose song is that remembered?
At random, surpenting
Throught fatty coils, emerging
some other thought it's thinking
this light
stands above the
houses
on the ground
this illumination
visited upon the whole land

unmarked helicopters
hovering
the lord is coming soon

here comes the super copter
here comes the noise it makes
the demon was an idea
the demon is awake
scratch mark traced across the
surface of your mind
this hour, now upon us
the hour, now arrived

unmarked helicopters
hovering
the lord is coming soon
unmarked helicopters
hovering
they said it was a weather balloon

but i know the truth
i know the whole shebang
i know the names of men they had to hang
i let her out the trunk
heard what she said at them
they've come to drag us through the double M

it goes black black black black and blacker
it goes black black black black and blacker
it goes black black black black and blacker
it goes black black black black and blacker

unmarked helicopters
hovering
the lord is coming soon
unmarked helicopters
hovering
they said it was a weather balloon
it was a weather balloon
it was a weather balloon
it was a weather balloon
it was a weather balloon
it was a weather balloon

Uh, Jeffrey, just wondering... Out of all the songs I've put in Caritas, howcome the one you picked for Tash to sing was the only one that wasn't put up in relation to herself?

What about "Be the Man" or "Us" or "Love's Great Ocean" or "Drowning, not Waving"?? Or even songs from within the game... "Just a Little Bit of Love" or "True Colours"?

:roll:

Not that I'm really bitching - I quite like "I'm Just a Girl". But it wasn't specific to Tash, is all...
