    Thanks Pedge, that's a great song and a ripper clip. :)

    I'm just struggling to find inspiration at the moment, so a song I find inspirational just isn't springing to mind, but rest assured, when it does, I'll be back!! :D

    Great thread btw. :)

    This one makes me want to go out and find a cure for something. Anything.
    Don't really know why.

    There is too much yucky going on in the world to not have some Muppet fun once in a while. If I were President of the universe, I would propose a daily Muppet jam, like a siesta. We could all watch some Muppets and kick back in the sun.

  • willing to fight - ani difranco

    http://youtube.com/watch?v=d7c1HgCLnjo (I've never seen this film they put with the song with but it's the only youtube clip I could find for this song)



    the windows of my soul
    are made of one way glass
    don't bother looking into my eyes
    if there's something you want to know,
    just ask
    i got a dead bolt stroll
    where i'm going is clear
    i won't wait for you to wonder
    i'll just tell you why i'm here

    'cause i know the biggest crime
    is just to throw up your hands
    say
    this has nothing to do with me
    i just want to live as comfortably as i can
    you got to look outside your eyes
    you got to think outside your brain
    you got to walk outside you life
    to where the neighborhood changes

    tell me who is your boogieman
    that's who i will be
    you don't have to like me for who i am
    but we'll see what you're made of
    by what you make of me
    i think that it's absurd
    that you think i
    am the derelict daughter
    i fight fire with words
    words are hotter than flames
    words are wetter than water

    i got friends all over this country
    i got friends in other countries too
    i got friends i haven't met yet
    i got friends i never knew
    i got lovers whose eyes
    i've only seen at a glance
    i got strangers for great grandchildren
    i got strangers for ancestors

    i was a long time coming
    i'll be a long time gone
    you've got your whole life to do something
    and that's not very long
    so why don't you give me a call
    when you're willing to fight
    for what you think is real
    for what you think is right
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
    -Oscar Wilde

    right now they be Given to Fly and

    Weezer's

    "Island In The Sun"

    Hip hip
    Hip hip
    Hip hip
    Hip hip

    When you're on a holiday
    You can't find the words to say
    All the things that come to you
    And I wanna feel it too

    On an island in the sun
    We'll be playing and having fun
    And it makes me feel so fine
    I can't control my brain

    Hip hip
    Hip hip

    When you're on a golden sea
    You don't need no memory
    Just a place to call your own
    As we drift into the zone

    On an island in the sun
    We'll be playing and having fun
    And it makes me feel so fine
    I can't control my brain

    We'll run away together
    We'll spend some time forever
    We'll never feel bad anymore

    Hip hip
    Hip hip
    Hip hip

    On an island in the sun
    We'll be playing and having fun
    And it makes me feel so fine
    I can't control my brain

    We'll run away together
    We'll spend some time forever
    We'll never feel bad anymore

    Hip hip

    We'll never feel bad anymore
    No no
    We'll never feel bad anymore
    No no
    No no
    No no

    The edited version of Tom Petty's "You Don't Know How It Feels" always inspires me to roll another tnioj.

    I was just thinking about how this song inspires me to write more. It's pretty mellow, but I just love it. It's beautiful. This album was recorded here in London, Ontario. Which actually gives me more inspiration when I listen to it. If you can get a hold of the album I highly recommend it. It's not all this mellow. But if you like harder rock you may not dig it. I YSI'd this song so you can give it a try.

    Backstage with the modern dancers - Great Lake Swimmers

    Backstage with the modern dancers
    She was stretching her arms,
    Configuring her body.
    While they were breathing, they were shouting.
    She was concentrating on her breathing
    And didn't seem to mind,
    As I sat there on the couch,
    And tuned my guitar,
    And played a few chords
    Like roses growing their thorns.
    Getting ready to perform
    With bare feet and painted faces,
    They took their places,
    On shivering legs beneath colourful gowns.

    And out there on the wooden floors,
    The sweat from their pores.
    I'm writing a list
    Of songs I can sing by myself.
    Backstage with the modern dancers,
    Who feel it, like I do.
    Like I feel it, like I feel it.
    Backstage with the modern dancers,
    Getting ready to go on,
    She showed me her spin,
    With a beauty lit from within.

    And all of these things,
    I don't think they should be released
    Cock Fight.
