I feel these today..
I will need to write about songs that I feel today. (Thanks to Facebook,I can compare myself to colours,shoes,alcohol,and even furniture nowadays!! So..feeling like a song should be least of my worries,isn't it?)

Music by Michel Legrand;Lyrics by Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman-and sung by Sting. I love this rendition much better than Noel Harrison. The saxophone and the jazzy feel that this rendition has just takes me right now to another space and time. Its mystical.The imagery, the metaphors within metaphors, the statements, the questions, the answers, no answers, the ending, the beginning, the circular thoughts, the imagery… I love it!

Music,Lyrics and Sung by Leonard Cohen.
I think there is nothing more intoxicating then realising or understanding that either you have been touched or you have touched a perfect body with a mind! It must be a wondrous feeling to be Suzanne! Even as I sit listen to this haunting melody and perfect lyrics I get goose-pimples....!!
The visual that returns to haunt me everytime I hear this song..is that of a lovelorn sailor,sitting on a rocky cliff..and he is making love to his mon amour with his eyes..in a soft,tender..but very sensual way..few thousand miles apart..but yet,for that moment there is nothing in the world that would disturb them!

I will refrain talking about this song. It transports me to a place from where I cannot ever return on time. I can associate this song with almost everything in my life! I like to listen to this when I am ecstatic,when I am depressed,when I cook,when it rains, when I cry,when I make my bed,when I wake up in the morning,when the sun sets over the horizon,when the lighthouse beams out,when the thunder strikes,when the moon winks,when the starts shine..when I just want to be myself..or even someone else!
