SONGS THAT I LOVE HATE

So this post is not going to be about France for the most part, but something that I have been thinking about for the couple of days. I hate it when I love songs, but it's only like two lines from that that I really like. Perfect example. I hate the song by Sade "By Your Side" BUT I LOVE THE CHORUS SO MUCH. Those four lines!!!. You may have heard it played in a Bed Bath and Beyond or Stein Mart or something like that.Is it worth waiting through the whole stupid ass slow song to get to those four lines?



Another song like this is Ram's (Paul McCartney's band after the Beatles) song Uncle Albert. I hate the first part of the song sooooo much. Once the Trumpet solo starts I am in heaven, but its 2:18 seconds into the freaking song!!!!!


Also, I have thinking a lot about this one William Shatner + Ben Folds song called You'll Have Time. I love it, but it is really long (5 minutes!) and after a while he just keeps repeating about how you're going to die which gets annoying. But here are some of the lyrics:

Live life! Live life like you're gonna die,
Because you're gonna.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news,
But you're gonna die.

Maybe not today or even next year,
But before you know it you'll be saying
"Is this all there was?
What was all the fuss?
Why did I bother?"

Now, maybe you won't suffer
Maybe it's quick
But you'll have time to think
Why did I waste it?
Why didn't I taste it?
You'll have time, 
Because you're gonna die

Yes, it's going to happen because it's happened to a lot of people I know.
My Mother, my Father, my loves
The President, the kings, and even the Pope
They all had hope!

And they muttered just before they went
"Maybe, I won't go!"
Live life like you're going to die
Because you are.


So speaking of dying, I am dying of jealousy right now because my East State buddies are going to have a Venture Bros themed Halloween in Baton Rouge. Even if I came up with the coolest adult-swim show themed costume in the nation, no one would understand in France! Le triste.
