List 43 Songs that are Important to Me

Tavaramarkkinat – Kevät

“On siis kevät
Kuljen Hakaniemen rantaan,
Sydän ei tunne, mutta jalat vielä kantaa
Kevät – Pystynkö mitään antaan?”

Chisu – Sama Nainen

“Mä muistan kyllä ne kirosanat ja syyttelyn
Ja anteeksi annan jopa sen pahoinpitelyn
Mut mä en lupaa mitään
Mä en lupaa mitään muuta
Oon vielä samanlainen
Sama mieli, sama sydän, sama nainen”

Jonathan Coulton – Still Alive

“But there’s no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the Science gets done
And you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive”

Modest Mouse – Spitting Venom

“You were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a road map then you’d know just where to go
So we carried all the groceries in while hauling out the trash
And if this doesn’t make us motionless I do not know what can”

Modest Mouse – Dashboard

“Well we scheme and we scheme but we always blow it
We’ve yet to crash, but we still might as well tow it
Standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon,
Every dawn you’re surprising,
and in the evening one’s consoling
Saying “See it wasn’t quite as bad as”

The Frames – Falling Slowly

“Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won”

Modest Mouse – March Into The Sea

“I’ll be beating my heart’s record for speeding
I’ll be beating the record for hearts skipping in the dark
Our tails wagged and then fell off but
We just turned back, marched into the sea
Well, we just turned back, marched into the sea”

Modest Mouse – Invisible

“Oh, we had to have some kind
Room shaped like a charm
Well, you weren’t invisible, not all along
No matter how many eagles came in the door
We were not invisible, I knew that”

It seems I accidentally marked this goal as done. As far as I can see, there’s no way to undo it, so I guess I’ll have to just “do this again”.

Modest Mouse – Ocean Breathes Salty

“The ocean breathes salty, won’t you carry it in?
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul
And maybe we’ll get lucky and we’ll both grow old
Well I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I hope so”
