Song: Back to Black
Artist: Amy Winehouse


He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us

I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to


We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

I have a soft spot for horns in pop music. These guys have a great sound. This was the song that really turned me on to them. Hope you enjoy.

Song:Quattro (World Drifts In)
Artist:Calexico


Love the run but not the race
all alone in a silent way
world drifts in and the world’s a stranger
in a light, eclipsed and alienated
in a time, occupied and invaded
can’t tell what’s right, better hit the ground running
in the hills where the tall weed grows
hands are tied and won’t let go
can’t escape this place without leaving the world behind
in a light, ashamed and humiliated
in a time, sacrificed for the sake of trade
the soul is bent, feels the weight of truth
falling through
left behind, no choice but to run to the mountains
where no poppies grow, you have to hit the ground running
in a light, paralyzed and spirits fading
out of time, must decide to fall or run
into the eye, of the storm no sign or omen
make it right, or fall to the other side
where fields are burning
from the day you’re born
you’ll always hit the ground running

Best Chorus I've heard in Years

Les Savy Fav

[via FoxyTunes / Les Savy Fav]

This song makes me want to run. As soon as the first riff plays you know this is going to be a rock-n-rolla. I can never get the chorus out of my head once I hear it. Check out the rest of the blog...I am starved for attention. Make yourself at home...its the Song-A-Torium.

Song: The Sweat Descends
Artist: Les Savy Favy


The sweat descends
The sweat scents
One cock sure fox in a house of hens
My mouth will water where the sweat descends

The sweat descends sweet decadence,
lets hope this party never ends
A shiv in the ribs,
Some smoke in the hive,
You live how you live I'll die how i die

Wake me up when we get to heaven,
Let me sleep if we go to hell.
Blame my mouth if the house is burning,
Check my tongue if you still cant tell

The sweat descends,
My psyche bends,
I'll never be the same again.
This soul is twisted but the skin will mend.
My tight young skin covers up a sick palimpsest.

Wake me up when we get to heaven,
Let me sleep if we go to hell.
Blame my mouth if the house is burning,
Touch my tongue if you still cant tell

Make your mark on a darkened dance floor.
Slip across the present tense,
Press up against the skin you care for,
Meet me where the sweat descends

I find myself singing this song a lot when the girls are showing me how "happy" they are to be related to me. I think this was one of the most underrated albums of last year.
