Well... this looks fun! I love youtube and LOVE music! (so there isn't just ONE favorite)
Here is one that I think is one of the best written pop songs in the last ten years (sad, but beautiful lyrics):
GREY STREET by DMB
Oh look at how she listens
She says nothing of what she thinks
She just goes stumbling through her memories
Staring out on to Grey Street
She thinks, Hey,
How did I come to this?
I dream myself a thousand times around the world,
But I cant get out of this place
Theres an emptiness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
How she wishes it was different
She prays to God most every night
And though she swears it doesnt listen
Theres still a hope in her it might
She says, I pray
But they fall on deaf ears,
Am I supposed to take it on myself?
To get out of this place
Theres loneliness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
And though its red blood bleeding from her now
It feels like cold blue ice in her heart
When all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
Theres a stranger speaks outside her door
Says take what you can from your dreams
Make them as real as anything
Itd take the work out of the courage
But she says, Please
Theres a crazy man thats creeping outside my door,
I live on the corner of Grey Street and the end of the world
Theres an emptiness inside her
And shed do anything to fill it in
And though its red blood bleeding from her now
Its more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her using colors bold and bright
But all the colors mix together - to grey
And it breaks her heart
And another one this time from the other side of the "serious spectrum" (since I just depressed you):
PARTY DOWN by RBF (Great musicians... funny guys)
Mama,
Daddy,
Baby Sis'
Tell your,
Cousins
All about this.
Coming to you now,
From the Money Cow,
Living large in space.
Take your wallet out,
All the Dingos Shout,
"We'll eat your baby, mate"
I'm upsetting you,
But I'm getting through,
I'm just sick of the same old something.
And you want me to stay but I am out the door.
Baking a cake!
We just came to party down
Killing every scene around
We just came to party hardy hardy hardy hardy
Whoo hoo hoo!
Ooh ooh ooh!
She fell down the stairs,
Snakes eat Baby Bears,
Sharks are coming now.
Tearing off my flesh,
Are you getting fresh?
Slap me in the plough.
We like Popsicles,
We have lost control,
I can't run 'cause I'm in slow motion.
The mechanical bulls are melting in the snow.
Flipper, hooray
We just came to party down,
Whee-ha!
Killing every scene around!
We just came to party hardy hardy hardy hardy
We won't let you down,
We won't let you down.
We Just Need To Party Down
Baking a cake
We just came to party down,
Ah yeah, party down.
Killing every scene around.
