song of the moment

MESITA //  SOMEWHERE ELSE

living life in three-month-long stories 
moving on from one to the next 
when you think you finally know me 
i have become somebody else 

need to leave behind this worry 
just can't seem to rest my head 
when i think i'm finally settled 
i am headed out somewhere else 

living life in three month-long stories 
wanderlust has taken hold 
still young, i see a world wide open 
still need to find somebody else 

need to leave behind this worry 
just can't seem to rest my head 
when i think i'm finally settled 
i am headed out somewhere else 

abandon when abandoned 
so you leave before you are left 
i've never really known who i am 

hope these days will have some meaning someday 
but for now i'm just a stray with a suitcase

MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS

I don't know if you could guess that the name of my blog is called after Marina and the Diamonds. The first time I ever heard of her was in 2009 with 'Hollywood'. The song was a little bit to much for me, especially the music video. I thought Marina was an another bimbo, pop singer and didn't paid much attention to her. My friend N. was in love with the song and at one point I also was addicted. I decided to search the lyrics and was amazed by the content of ´Hollywood´. I discovered more songs and found out that all her songs had a message. Now in 2011 I still listen to her songs and her new album is just out. I will always have a weak spot for her.

Here are some Marina quotes from her songs:

'' Puking American dreams, I'm obsessed...''

''I feel numb most of the time''

''Do I need to lie to make my way in life?''

''I lived allot if different lives, been different people many times''

''We've all got our obsessions''

''Better to be hated then to be loved for what you're not''

''Hollywood infected your brain''

''There's no crime in being kind, not everyone is out to screw you over''

''Are you satisfied with an avarage life''

''I never say a word in case I come off neady''

' I got dark only to shine''

''Don't need money don't need fame, I just wanna make a change''

'' The sleep is not my friend''

''Champagne, savor the taste of fabricated wealth''

'' Your possessions will posses you. Tv taught us how to feel now real life has no appeal''

WE USED TO WAIT// ARCADE FIRE

Again a song that deserves a post. I can listen to the music from Arcade Fire all day long, I never get bored. In the future there will be a blog all dedicated to Arcade Fire :) but for know, 'We used to wait'.

The lyrics:


I used to write
I used to write letters
I used to sign my name
I used to sleep at night
Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brain
But by the time we met
The times had already changed
So I never wrote a letter
I never took my true heart
I never wrote it down
So when the lights cut out
I was left standing in the wilderness downtown

Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something pure can last

It seems strange
How we used to wait for letters to arrive
But what's stranger still 
Is how something so small can keep you alive
We used to wait
We used to waste hours just walkin around
We used to wait
All those wasted lives in the wilderness downtown

Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came
Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came
Ooooo we used to wait
Still moving through the pain

I'm gonna write a letter to my true love
I'm gonna sign my name
Like a patient on a table
I Wanna walk again
Gonna move through the pain

Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something pure can last

Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came
Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came
Ooooo we used to wait
Still moving through the pain

We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming
Sing the chorus again

I used to wait for it
Hear my voice screaming
Sing the chorus again

Wait for it
