so, 2007 already, is it?
really matt?
new pornographers only made it to #10 live?
oh well.
i guess i don't think i even saw 10 bands live this past year
(no thanks to migraine-triggering light shows--boooooooooooo!)
anyhoo:
top on my list=
1. the pipettes at HMV in london
2. new porngraphers at the bellyup tavern in encinitas

top songs i got stuck on in 2006 (mostly because of lyrics)

side note: 2005-2006 was the worst year of my professional life.
2006-2007 is turning out to be the most stress-free job of my life
good thing i go in school years instead of actual years. that way part of the year is still good!!! :)

therefore, i divide songs into 2 parts of this year...

***summer trip/after my (horrific)school year...***

1. track #12 on the worship track from dad edwards nothing but the blood of jesus-i think it is the guy from delirious...
what can wash away our sins?
what can make us whole again?
nothing but the blood
nothing but the blood of jesus

2. absinthe party at the fly honey warehouse--minus the bear
hey let's cross the sea
and get some culture
red wine with every meal
and absinthe after dinner

during my school year...

3. worship song-hungry
hungry i call to you
for i know you satisy
i am weary but i know
your touch restores my life
so i wait for you
and i wait for you
i'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
jesus you're all this heart is living for

4. the blankest year-nada surf
time don't move
we're the only ones who do
bending reason cause it's all we hold on to
i had the blankest year
i saw life turn into a tv show
the person i knew i didn't really know

5. africa-michael edwards
please let me know let me know
if you're going to africa
and i'll pack my bags pack my bags today
and stop what i'm doing sail through the sky

6. misfit-elefant
tell me your name
tell me your story
cause i'm into it
running through life
like a misfit

7. drive on to me-elliot
we move to fast to remember
drive on to me
we count the days from the hours...

8. in the mirror-elliot
i look in the mirror
to see what my hair is doing...
but that's not the real reason i'm looking
i need a reminder of what i'm doing
i need a reminder that i'm human

in my dreams i love you like
a snowstorm in the night
but do dreams ever do damage to life
when you need so much you can't get it right?

that's the first part of my year in review 2006...
