I am quite surprised of myself having these M2M moods lately and I didn't know why but yea maybe, because of the memories I get. Those were the days. And those two girls are talented. I remember thinking Marion Raven was prettier and all that.. and those Norweigan girls made it in the US! Somehow, the same instinct led me down to browse on them again today. Always had the soft heart for song-writers and I think, I just think, that I'm falling for a new talent.. Marit Larsen. Don't get me wrong, she is not my type of music, but her lyrical scope gets into my soul and draws that smile in my lips. Her voice, soothing, probably the Norah Jones/Chantal Kreviazuk/Jewel-type, calm and friendly. She comes down naturally with her talent: piano/guitar skills and her ability to twist the words on those lyrics better than other English writers. It gets me to that same old mood I'm in when I write my own. Mixed feelings of content, tearfulness, love, and inspiration. It brings out my emotions, unfortunately. But then it makes me feel good. So this I wanna share, just one part of Larsen's music. (To see video, click on the title of the song.)
It's such a funny sensation to be
So happy that you wanna die
Promises always were crazy to me
But never was I so surprised
Minutes are longer when we are apart
Your presence's more than I can handle
It's come to the point where I wonder if I
Could ever be luckier when
Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?
Lend me your ears, I would like to confess
I'm doubting that you can be real
By your side wearing a beautiful dress
I celebrate how good it feels
Say that you love me, say that it's true
I know that I want to believe you
But somehow silence speaks louder than words
I'm worried she's still on your mind
Mmm... I know that I'm selfish
I know that it's bad
I know, but it's driving me mad
It's driving me mad
So happy that you wanna die
Promises always were crazy to me
But never was I so surprised
Minutes are longer when we are apart
Your presence's more than I can handle
It's come to the point where I wonder if I
Could ever be luckier when
Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?
Lend me your ears, I would like to confess
I'm doubting that you can be real
By your side wearing a beautiful dress
I celebrate how good it feels
Say that you love me, say that it's true
I know that I want to believe you
But somehow silence speaks louder than words
I'm worried she's still on your mind
Mmm... I know that I'm selfish
I know that it's bad
I know, but it's driving me mad
It's driving me mad
Under the surface
Under the surface
Under the surface
