A Momma’s View invited me to participate in the three-day-three-quote thingy (my ridiculous name for it). Thanks again for thinking of me! [Rules at bottom of post.]
Day Three – Lyrics edition
I have music obsessions… that change. The first two are current obsessions. The last one is a forever obsession. Choosing a few words from song lyrics is a huge challenge — I kind of want to pick the whole song. And I kind of feel bad this isn’t a funny post… my first two were kind of amusing.
The National | Slipped
I’m having trouble inside my skin
I tried to keep my skeletons in…
[Seriously, I could go on… this entire song is perfect.]
_
Hozier | From Eden
Innocence died screaming
[I just love this line… three words and it’s perfect. And the whole song is perfect.]
_
The Smiths | Still Ill
Does the body rule the mind
Or does the mind rule the body?
I don’t know…
[It’s The Smiths. It’s Morrissey. Of course the lyrics are amazing. I used to have this on a tee shirt. Hell, it’s probably up in the attic.]
Thanks for reading… this concludes my three days!

Love these! On a personal note How Soon Is Now? has been my personal jam since I was 20. I love lyrics that make me think. Great post!

That is definitely one of the best songs of all time. I thought of a quote from that one but it was too hard to pick any one part of it… there were so many Smiths quotes to choose from…

Love Morrissey! Well Hozier, too. Not that familiar with The National… H didn’t want to watch them the other night, either…

Aww. Well, if you’re interested, I could give you a list of my favorites. But I don’t want to be a pusher. They’re not for everyone. I got my daughter into them… which kind of surprised me since she is 8 and listens to *shudder* Taylor Swift. And One Direction.

Lol! Well I guess as long as she grows out of One D and Swifty…

Well, I do like Hozier 🙂 I’ll listen to the other two but don’t know them. Big surprise, right?

🙂 I’m a music snob anyway… so I certainly don’t expect everyone to love what I love… or hate what I hate… 😀
