This song was haunting me for a few weeks- I kept trying to look up the lyrics, but I was remembering them wrong, and then I tried to look up the name of the song itself, but google was useless.
Of course it turned out to be an ocremix of a Chrono Cross song, because that's just how I roll around here. The shit that haunts me is always going to be video game flavored.
Anyway. I'm into the dreamlike melancholy of this mix (if you wanted chill, this is downright frosty), and I've always loved Jillian Aversa's vocals on other remixes. I am absolutely stealing the song title for a fanfic that is completely unrelated and tonally inappropriate, because that's also how I roll.
Lyrics under the cut.
Sometimes I lie awake at night and wait
The shadows changing on the hollow wall
And moonlight streaming through my windowpane
Leaves me cold, under the shroud of nightfall
You're there beside me in my deepest dreams
A ghost of all the weight I feel within
And floating endlessly, my heart believes
That we are one, ready to touch, to begin
Imagine how your lips would taste on mine
And how your breath would feel against my eyes
My heart is racing for the millionth time
Don't let go of this thought, otherwise
There's a haze, a feeling that I get with you
And this hand won't let go
Lead me, show me just how love's supposed to feel
So that I won't be dreaming...
lol my student teaching supervisor sent me my feedback video because he observed me friday and it was twenty minutes long and he essentially said that he was disappointed in me and that i did a disservice to american poetry so i'm feeling pretty good about myself
we start with svītrains
because melns isn't accurate
svītrains kaķis, my cat
murrājot next to me
as I finish my lesson
and immediately search
for better words
to describe her
svītrains kaķis
mazs kaķis
skaists kaķis
murrājot, murrājot
murrājot
I'm an optimist and a pessimist bc yes I've seen how awful the world is and yes I really do believe that society as a whole will never truly get better, we will always be driving eachother into a hole, but also I've seen people's whole faces light up at the first note of their favourite song and I've seen people running around laughing in fields with their friends having the time of their lives and I've seen kindness and love in its most genuine form and I truly believe that human beings are capable of living without regret and I think that is literally all we are here for on this earth

meeting her for the first time n finally feeling fully relaxed n comfortable around someone im in a realtiomship with ?? feeling heard and seen and appreciated and ?? being able to show that back n feel accepted with patience for all my shortcomings ?? oh Great Heavens, i am in too deep.
I let you go. Like a piece of paper on the wind. And when you speak of her, my heart doesn't hurt so much. And when I think of you kissing her, I don't long for it to be me. I love you still, I always will, but I've let you go. And finally I'm ready to live for me.
Rio is the second studio album by English band Duran Duran, released in 1982. A new wave album with musical elements such as dance and synth-pop, Rio is mostly composed of fast, upbeat numbers, with a couple slower synthesiser-based ballads. The cover artwork, painted by Patrick Nagel and designed by Malcolm Garrett to resemble 1950s cigar packaging, is considered one of the greatest of all time.
Duran Duran shot music videos for many of the album's tracks, all of which helped spearhead the 1980s MTV revolution. Accompanied by three worldwide hit singles, Rio peaked at number 2 in the UK and remained in the chart for 110 weeks. Initially unsuccessful in the US, the album was remixed by Capitol Records to better match American radio at the time; the remixed album spent 129 weeks on the Billboard chart, reaching number 6.
Rio initially received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics, who commended the melodies but disparaged the lyrics. Retrospective reviewers consider Rio timeless and the band's best work, praising its instrumentation and band performances. With the album, Duran Duran were forerunners in the Second British Invasion of the 1980s, helping ensure the success of other English artists throughout the decade, and along with Culture Club and Spandau Ballet created a teen frenzy similar to Beatlemania during the first British Invasion of the 60s. Rio has since made appearances on best-of lists and has been reissued several times.
"The Chauffeur" was created on the spot in the studio. During downtime, Nick Rhodes retreated to an auxiliary studio room with Blauel, their tape operator, and crafted a track using keyboards, synthesisers, the sound of an ice cube cracking and a conversation about nature for extra effects. Simon Le Bon accompanied him with lyrics he'd originally written as poetry in 1978, and adding a melody on an ocarina. The final track features no contributions from the three other band members. An acoustic version (Blue Silver) was recorded without Rhodes, which appeared as a B-side to "Rio". The keyboardist later quipped, "I guess that was my punishment for have created an entirely electronic track."
"The Chauffeur" received a total of 64,6% yes votes!
