Song of the Week - Home



Home By Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros is my happy song. It's just such a beautifully crafted song that makes my heart sing every time I hear it.

"I follow you into the park, through the jungle through the dark
Girl aint never loved one like you
Moats and boats and Waterfalls, Alleyways and payphone calls
I been everywhere with you

Laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night
never could be sweeter than with you"

Song of the Week - It's Nice To Be Alive

I just wanted to start this new blog by sharing one of my favourite songs of the moment.



Boring as bat-shit you people make me feel so
Curious and I don't know why
You think you'll end up in the sky

Happy as Larry and riding sheep on clouds
Well I'd prefer enthusiasm while you're here with me

So stop
Don't get carried away
Darling don't you understand that every time we wave our hands we're cool
We're fucking amazing
We dropped down from some other dimension just to be with you

Don't stress
That's dumb
I'm here
And it's nice to be alive

Chill out
It's all right
Kiss me
It's nice to be alive

Lovers need lovers and I'm impressed by all the
Goods out on display
I don't know what to say

I'm thinking I'm thinking woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I prefer enthusiasm while you're here with me

So stop
Don't get carried away
Darling don't you understand that every time we wave our hands we're cool
We're fucking amazing
We dropped down from some other dimension, just to be with you

Don't stress
That's dumb
I'm here
And it's nice to be alive

Chill out
It's all right
Kiss me
It's nice to be alive

Don't stress
That's dumb
I'm here
And it's nice to be alive

Chill out
It's all right
Kiss me
It's nice to be alive
It's nice to be alive
It's nice to be alive



I love the idea that every day should be lived as though it's your last. We never know is around the corner and thus should seize every opportunity even if we are doubtful when it first presents itself.
