If only I actually had time to post my own words...
I know that I have slacked when it comes to my blog-but keep in mind I am in grad school and that comes first. I have discovered James Blunt and really like his music. It is very calming, especially when I am getting ready to tear my hair out because of Functional Genomics. My two favorite songs by his are You're Beautiful and Tears and Rain. You're Beautiful is on the radio and is the one that really caught my interest. That and Amanda Huber played it about 50 times in a row.You're Beautiful
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Fucking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
Tears and Rain
How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.
I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.
I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
Most of his other songs also get to me but I thought that I would just post my two favorite.
Happy Listening,
Juls

Heya, I can understand what you are saying about not being able to listen to something. They played Kid Rock at the funeral for one of my uncles and now I can't even hear it without tearing up. Of course, that could also be because Kid Rock sucks. I listen to so many different things that sometimes I wonder about my split personalities. I just went through my itunes to put work out music on my ipod and I can't believe some of the stuff I have. I tend to listen to an artist for weeks on end and then switch to something new. Of course, there is always certain stuff that I listen to through out, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Tomahawk. I just don't know. There is some stuff that I like just because of the lyrics-like Linkin Park. The guys voice annoys me but I love their lyrics. Anyways, back to work so I can get home and play the game.
