I decided to do the
Frankenmix this month...after seeing it on a couple friend's journals.
February's theme is Love. I haven't uploaded anything, but if you see something you want, just comment and I'll upload an mp3 for you.
1. A song about the definition of love
Raul Esparza - Being Alive (from Company)
Somebody hold me too close
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you of being alive
or
John Lennon - Imagine
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
2. A song about the persuasion of love
hellogoodbye - Dear Jamie...Sincerely Me
Dear Jamie this envelope will represent my heart
I'll seal it, send it off and wish it luck with its depart.
This stamp will be every action that carry my affection
Across the air and land and sea
Should I trust the postage due?
To deliver my heart to you?
3. A song about the pleasure of love
John Mayer - Your Body Is A Wonderland
And if you want love, we'll make it
Swimming a deep sea of blankets
Take all your big plans and break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
4. A song about the pain of love
Jason Mraz - Please Don't Tell Her
Please don't dare tell her what I've become
Please don't mention all the attention I have drawn
Please don't bother cause she'll feel guilty when I'm gone
Because I'm crazy like the rest of us
But I'm crazier when I'm next to her
And it's amazing how she's so self-assured
But I know she'd hate me if she knew my words
5. A song about the fidelity of love
Natalie Cortez - What I Did For Love (from A Chorus Line)
Gone, love is never gone,
As we travel on,
Love's what we'll remember!
Kiss today goodbye,
And point me t'ward tomorrow.
We did what we had to do--
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for love!
6. A song about the inconstancy of love
Lit - Miserable
You make me come
You make me complete
You make me completely miserable
7. A song about the estrangement of love
Deven May - The Sensitive Song
And that's why I'm dumping you, bitch
That's why I'm out the door
She is a perfect angel
You're a skanky, skanky whore
8. A song about the loss of love
Julia Murney - Perfect
In a perfect world, you wouldn't have left me
Feeling left out, abandoned and small
But I'm not perfect
And you're not perfect
'Cause if you were, I wouldn't have loved you
9. A song about the illusion of love
Joni Mitchell - Both Sides, Now
I've looked at love from both sides now
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall
I really don't know love at all
10. A song about the waning of love
Kaitlin Hopkins - Can't Find The Door
It's my pride if we take a break as lovers
I know you'll find another
And that will be the end
It's my life, I wake up next to you
And I don't want the things you do
So I pretend I just can't find the door
It's not where it was before
And it's getting pretty late
To find a place to settle down for the night
For the year, god I wish that you were here
I'd like to open up my heart a little more
Just can't find the door
11. A song about the dangers of love
Sara Chase - One of Those Days
I am waiting through the workday
Captivated by the clock hands
Doing everything I should
But I am thinking of your body
I am thinking about your hands
Now I'm thinking how I'm missing you
And that's no good
Nothing I can do
Someone tell me how
To ride the storm out on my own
'Cause I feel it coming now
12. A song about the aftermath of love
Karmine Alers - I Survived You
This heart has been torn in two
Cut and bruised
With too many bitter endings
I'll be damned if I let thoughts of you
Rain on my new beginning
13. A song about the falsity of love
Evanescence - Call Me When You're Sober
So don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
Don't lie to me
Just get your things
I've made up your mind
15. A song about the opposite of love
Thea Gilmore - Sugar
You can take me home
You can take it on through
You can lay me on your bed
Tell me to say stop when I want you to
But don't you dare Call me sugar
