Music Sounds Better With You

After the last playlist, I've decided to do a double disc.

Maybe name each disc after a Binary Star.

But then I no longer know who to share it with.

********

Disc 1
Funny Time Of Year ~ Beth Gibbons & Rustin' Man
Turning now I see no reason, the voice of love so out of season

Where Do You Go? ~ Beth Orton
I want to hear you and tell you again but so much can happen makes it harder to explain

Intuition ~ Feist
And it's impossible to tell how important someone was and what he might have missed out on

Northern Lad ~ Tori Amos
I guess you go too far when pianos try to be guitars

By Piccadilly Station I Sat Down And Wept ~ Tracey Thorn
Does anyone witness such a disappearance one man is just standing in the rain

Meet Me By The Water ~ Rachael Yamagata
Please don't leave me standing with my heart in my hand I can't last here

Waking To The Dream Of You ~ Lori Carson
I'm getting all this good advice on making it an easy ride

That's How I Knew This Story Would Break My Heart ~ Aimee Mann
And though the exit is crude it saves me coming unglued

Never Is A Promise ~ Fiona Apple
I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why

The Letter ~ Natalie Merchant
How I'll often treasure moments that we knew, the precious, the few

So This Is Goodbye ~ Stina Nordenstam
So this is how you say it these are the words it's the voice you're using

Numb ~ Sia
Kindred soul cracked spirit it has to end to begin

Disc 2
I Taught Myself How To Grow Old ~ Ryan Adams
Crooked on the outside, inside's caved

Go Or Go Ahead ~ Rufus Wainwright
Makes one hardened but what has happened to love

Thoughts Of Mary Jane ~ Nick Drake
Her long lost sighs and her brightly coloured eyes tell her story to the wind

The Lake ~ Antony & The Johnsons
My infant spirit would awake to the terror of the lone lake

Save Your Day ~ Jose González
So poke the body and roll it down the grave looks cold but we're still young

Grey Room ~ Damien Rice
Well I've been here before sat on a floor in a grey grey mood

Days Go By ~ Duncan Sheik
I know it's not fashionable to be this hopeful

Morning Theft ~ Jeff Buckley
Time takes care of the wound or so I can believe

Chinese Translation ~ M. Ward

What do you do with the pieces of a broken heart and how can a man like me remain in the light and if life is really as short as they say then why is the night so long

To Be By Your Side ~ Nick Cave
Love comes on a wing and tonight I will be by your side but tomorrow I will fly away

The Road to Mandalay ~ Robbie Williams
Every mistake I've ever made has been rehashed and then replayed as I got lost along the way

Let Her Down Easy ~ Terrence Trent D'Arby
Let her down easy and you'll grow up in time

There was a time when the meanings of these songs were imagined.

Now no longer.
