Oh how I do love Metric haha... damn weird girl bands :) Anyways, this song helps fill out the "well rounded music selection" criteria I hold myself too when I decide to make you another other other other other other other other other other other other other (thats 12 right?) CD :) Which is important!! Because like I've always said, you don't have to like all of it... but I damn well better make sure you like something haha!!
But yeah, I *think* this song represents that typical "love sick" feeling haha... I say think because you've informed before that songs weren't about what I thought they were haha. Either way, at times like this, when we're SOO close to each other but not quite there, songs like this mean much more!! Because I absolutely can't wait to see you haha... as much as I have here, nothing compares to you :) I think it's just because you know me to well haha...
So I hope you enjoy, and if not, there are 11 other chances that you will!!

Only You (9/12)
Only You by Kaskade (ft. Haley)
It's you, only you can be everything to me
Only you.
How I'd try to deny or hide?
Put away my pride, only you
I'll repeat this phrase through all my days,
With my last breath, only you
I'll repeat this phrase through all my days,
With my last breath, only you
Only you (repeat this phrase) - x8
And it shows, because my heart beats so,
I will always know, only you.
Beautiful, so beautiful,
All this love is full, only you
I'll repeat this phrase through all my days,
With my last breath, only you
I'll repeat this phrase through all my days,
With my last breath, only you
Only you (repeat this phrase) - x8
Appropriate reasons for including this song? First, the simple (repeated a bajillion times) lyrics fit quite well :) I mean... they aren't exactly mysterious to figure out haha... "Only you"... aka you are my hot chick, my only hot chick, the only hot chick in the history of all the chicks... and that should be pretty straight forward haha!!
Second reason... what's a playlist that doesn't have a little techno in it? ;) Not as fun as some of the other techno songs with the really deep base and the parts that go "wub wub" and all that, but still necessary haha!! So here it is, song number 9 haha.

Chase This Light (8/12)
Chase This Light by Jimmy Eat World
I'm a suspect, I'm a traitor,
I'm only here in body visiting.
Yellow faces in the distance screams,
"The beauty is in what isn't said,"
I'm rising to my feet,
Because tonight, the world turned in me.
Because right now, I don't dare to breathe.
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive and somewhere for us to find,
Tonight, oh chase this light with me.
My just so, my last call,
My life is yours in your gifted hands.
Confetti rainfall in a quiet street.
These things I've found are special now,
The knot is in my reach,
Because tonight, the world turned in me.
Because right now, I don't dare to breathe.
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive and somewhere for us to find,
Tonight, oh chase this light with me.
A movie, still photograph,
Through a martyr's eyes can I see,
I've seen the best of love, the best of hate, the best reward is earned,
And I've paid for every single word I ever said.
Confetti rainfall in a quiet streets.
The beauty is in what you make it,
So get up on your feet.
Because tonight, the world turned in me,
Because right now, I don't dare to breathe.
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive and somewhere for us to find,
Tonight, oh chase this light with me.
Because tonight, the world turned in me.
Because right now, I don't dare to breathe.

Sometimes, you just have to know you have someone there for you haha. The odds are stacked against you, things are changing... whatever it is, a familiar voice can do wonders for an unsettled mind. And you are most certainly my familiar voice, my familiar touch... everything I can count on :) No matter what I'm up against, not listening when you say its gonna be alright just seems ridiculous!! Because unlike other things where you aren't always so right haha, you almost always right when it comes to the "its gonna be alright" situations :)
And so I plant me feet firm, and get ready to stand against whatever challenge comes next. Because worst case scenario, if I fall, if I fail... you're right there behind me to catch me and shove me back up on my feet :) Thank you so much for that!!
Love always

We Believe (7/12)
I guess more than anything this is just a general "good meaning" song haha. You already know that some songs that make it to these CD's simply do so because I like them :) This one is kinda like that... Because more than a feel good song, it's a think well song. And thinking is something we definitely need to be able do every once in a while!!
And maybe even more than thinking... it's something else. Like pondering maybe haha... or some other fancy cinnamon. (Uh, I meant synonym haha) It is meant to listen to, and tune out everything else for a bit, and get a little perspective!! And I don't see anything wrong with a little reality check... or a little day-dreaming for that matter haha... and for me at least, this song has an equal chance to induce either :)
Sooo... I hope you enjoy!! Aaand your face is cute!! Aaalso, I like adding extra vowels to the first words of sentences, 'cause I find it invigorating ;)
Still believing :)

Dog Days Are Over (6/12)
Dog Days are Over by Florence and the Machine
Happiness, hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with a drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming so you better run
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind you
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had
And what was left after that too. oh.
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
Struck from a great height
By someone who should know better than that
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses
Cuz here they come
Run fast for your mother and fast for your father
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your loving behind you
Can't carry it with you if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses because here they come
The dog days are over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses because here they come
Happiness, hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back

With every bubble she sank with a drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming so you better run
Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
Run for your children for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind you

Maybe this one you can tell me... why do we like this song haha? Personally I can't decide haha, because usually its either the lyrics or the beat. But this one... I'd take either separately and it would probably make two songs I loved almost as much :) Or maybe both just represent the same things... which to me when I hear this song, I think of happiness, and freedom... so of course when those two things come to mind, I think of you haha!! But anyways, whatever happiness or magic exists inside of this song, I don't want to probe it too much. I'd hate to accidentally kill whatever makes me smile about it :) So lets just agree to listen to it really loud haha!!
(That way we can't hear when I sing along) ;)

Walking on Air (5/12)
Well, ignoring the prevalent creepy factor of this song haha... Which definitely exists... there are two important things to know about this song:
1. I thought the music video was cool, even if it was strange haha.
2. "Walking on air..." this, among other lyrics in this song most definitely remind me of you haha!! You do make me feel like I'm walking on air sometimes... especially when I'm feeling extra euphoric, remembering the infinite number of fun times we've had!! And imaging what's left to come haha!!
So sometimes I grab my headphones and just play this song extra loud... hell I just play this whole playlist extra loud and lay in the sun somewhere and smile. You do that to me a lot haha... make me wanna lay down and spontaneously smile :)
That's just how amazing you are haha!!!
Ps: Half way there, 5 more to go!! The lyrics to this are below... the extra important ones are italicized :)

Walking on Air by Kerli
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
There's a little creepy house in a little creepy place
Little creepy town in a little creepy world
Little creepy girl with her little creepy face
Saying funny things that you have never heard
Do you know what it's all about
Are you brave enough to figure out
Know that you could set your world on fire
If you are strong enough to leave your doubts
Feel it, breath it, believe it
And you'll be walking on air
Go try, go fly, so high
And you'll be walking on air
Feel this, unless you kill it
Go on, and you're forgiven
I knew that, I could feel that
I feel like, I am walking on air
She has a little creepy cat and a little creepy bat
Little rocking chair and an old blue hat
That little creepy girl, oh, she loves to sing
She has a little gift, an amazing thing
With her little funny eyes of hazel
With her little funny old blue hat
She will go and set the world on fire
No one ever thought she could do that
Feel it, breath it, believe it
And you'll be walking on air
Go try, go fly, so high
And you'll be walking on air
Feel this, unless you kill it
Go on, and you're forgiven
I knew that, I could feel that
I feel like, I am walking on air
Flitter up, and
Hover down, be
All around, be
All around
You know that I love you
Go on
Feel it, breath it, believe it
And you'll be walking on air
Go try, go fly, so high
And you'll be walking on air
Feel this, unless you kill it
Go on, and you're forgiven
I knew that, I could feel that
I feel like, I am walking on air
I am walking on air
Secrets (4/12)
Two fantastic reasons for putting this song on this list of songs: One, its in the movie The Sorcerer's Apprentice which has physics in it and I really like it haha!!
And two... you definitely own all my secrets :)
I mean, its sorta hard to say I have secrets, because I tell you everything (unless I forget I didn't already tell you something because I assume I tell you everything haha)... But I suppose that to everyone that isn't you I could have secrets. You just know so much about me!! And I absolutely love it that way :)
But if I ever procure any secrets, I'll try and make sure they are fantastic extraordinary super secret secrets... Just so you can be the only one in the whole world to know them :) Which sounds to me pretty much how it should be haha...
Oh and PS, don't tell anyone, but I am 100% a ninja haha ;)
