I'm in the mood for superlatives today. Three, to be exact:
The best music-related blog: largehearted boy.
The best mp3 blog: Copy, Right?
And (right now, anyway, because I'm feeling oddly euphoric and mushy) the greatest song ever (5.23 mb -- thanks again to Kid Carlomagno):
I could be discontent and chase the rainbow's end
I might win much more but lose all that is mine
I could be a lot but I know I'm not
I'm content just with the riches that you bring
I might shoot to win and commit the sin
Of wanting more than I've already got
I could run away but I'd rather stay
In the warmth of your smile lighting up my day
(the one that makes me say)
'Cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened -- so don't go away
I might be a king and steal my people's things
But I don't go for that power crazy way
All that I could rule but I don't check for fools
All that I need is to be left to live my way
(so listen to what I say)
I could chase around for nothing to be found
But why look for something that is never there
I may get it wrong sometimes but I'll come back in style
For I realise your love means more than anything
(the song that makes me sing)
yes this is a great, great song.
Posted by: barb on May 18, 2004 12:08 PMIt really is. Cafe Bleu made such an impact on me when it came out and it still sounds fantastic. There is something about seeing the lyrics to one of your favourite songs on your work computer. It can really make you nostalgic, almost more than hearing the record itself. Thanks for the link to largehearted boy, by the way, a great blog.
