Fairly long but I love this song, it's great to listen to if you're a bit down.

Everybody's free (to wear sunscreen) - Baz Luhrmann

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '97... wear sunscreen.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be IT.

The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.

I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

You are NOT as fat as you imagine.

Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing every day that scares you.

    Sing.

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts, don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

    Floss.

Don't waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

    Stretch.

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't, maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't, maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either. Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.

Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they'll be gone for good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

    Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Don't mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen.

M.Craft - Dragonfly

I can see it all tonight underneath the perfect sky
Where the universe revolves around the pupil of an eye
And infinities stretch out from infinities within
I'm a part of everything
I'm a part of everything

Am i falling asleep?
Is it all just a dream?
Well, the cars are like water and the road is like a stream
Rolling down through the city, flowing out into the sea
Going nowhere like me
Going nowhere like me


When the morning starts to glow out in the corners of the sky
And the people come and go, and the time just passes by
Then i'm only gonna see it from the corner of my eye
When the planet spins it sings like the wings of a dragonfly...


I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight

I love this

Crowded House - Black And White Boy

Black and white boy, black and white boy
You're so extreme, you're so confused
Colour me in, whatever mood I'm in
I could be still in touch with you
And you're full of the wonder of spring
It's all sweetness and lightness you bring
And a room full of people will fall to your infinite charm
But when darkness should quickly descend
You go quietly my miserable friend
To the depths of despair you will crawl
Black and white boy
Black and white boy
Black and white boy
You're so extreme, you're so confused
Colour me in, whatever mood I'm in
I could be still in touch with you
When you shake off the shadows of night
And your eyes are so clear and so bright
You make fools of the liars and creeps
Put a rose in my cheeks
But when demons have climbed on your back
You are vicious and quick to attack
And you put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know
Black and white boy
And you run like a cat to the cream
And you're acting so nice it's obscene
You put on a wonderful show
Do you really, really think I don't know
Black and white boy

Black Sabbath - TV Crimes (Butler/Dio/Iommi)

One day in the life of the lonely
Another day on the roundabout
What do they need, somebody to love?

One night in the life of the lonely
There's a miracle on the screen
What did they see, somebody to love?

He guarantees you instant glory
Get your money on the line

Gotta send me a plastic Jesus
There's a check in the mail today
That's what I need, somebody to love!

We just won't eat on Sunday
Gotta buy him a limousine
Somewhere to live, somewhere to pray!

Every penny from the people
Keeps the wolf outside the door
Shop around and find forgiveness for yourself
But he'll give you more, yeah!

Holy father, holy ghost
Who's the one who pays the most
Rock the cradle don't you cry
Buy another lullaby

Jack is nimble, Jack is quick
Pick your pocket, turn a trick
Slow and steady, he's got time
To commit another TV crime, TV crime

One day in the life of the lonely
Back again on the roundabout
What do they need, somebody to love?

One night in the life of the lonely
Another miracle on the screen
What did they see, somebody to love again?

A supermarket of salvation
Take a look inside the store
Shop around and find forgiveness for yourself
But he gives more, yeah!

Holy father, holy ghost
Who's the one who hurts you most?
Rock the cradle when you cry
Scream another lullaby

Jack be nimble, Jack be slick
Take the money, get out quick
Slow and steady, so much time
To commit another
TV Crime, TV Crime

Eminem - Lose Yourself

Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted…One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti
He’s nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won’t come out
He’s chokin, how everybody’s jokin now
The clock’s run out, time’s up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He’s so mad, but he won’t give up that
Is he? No
He won’t have it , he knows his whole back city’s ropes
It don’t matter, he’s dope
He knows that, but he’s broke
He’s so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that’s when it’s
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap sh*i
He better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass him

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

The soul’s escaping, through this hole that it’s gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin, but superstardom’s close to post mortar
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he’s know as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He’s grown farther from home, he’s no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
His bosses don’t want him no mo, he’s cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it’s old potna, but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

No more games, I’ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothafuck*n roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody’s payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can’t get by with my 9 to 5
And I can’t provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these goddam food stamps don’t buy diapers
And it’s no movie, there’s no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it’s getting even harder
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
See dishonor caught up bein a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama’s screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another jam or not
Has gotten me to the point, I’m like a snail
I’ve got to formulate a plot fore I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothafuck*n option, failure’s not
Mom, I love you, but this trail has got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem’s lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not cuz maybe the only opportunity that I got

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

Smokey Robinson and The Miracles - I Second That Emotion

Maybe you'll wanna give me kisses sweet
But only for one night and no repeat
And maybe you'll go away and never call
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all
Oh, little girl!

In that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
So, if you feel like giving me
A life time of devotion
I second that emotion

Maybe you'll think that love will tie you down
And you don't have the time to hang around
Or maybe you'll think that love was made for fools
And so it makes you wise to break the rules
Oh, little girl!

In that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion
So, if you feel like giving me
A lifetime of devotion
I second that emotion

In that case I don't want no part
I do believe that that would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
If you got the notion
I second that emotion

The Raconteurs - Together


You and me forever
we belong together
and we'll always endeavor
throughout any type of weather

You want everything to be just like (2x)
The story's that you read but never write (2x)
You gotta learn to live
and live and learn
You gotta learn to give
and wait your turn
or you'll get burned

You wrote our names down on the sidewalk
the rain came and washed them off
So we should write them again on wet cement
So people a long time from now will know what we meant

You want every morning to be just like (2x)
The story's that you read but you never write (2x)
You gotta learn to live
and live and learn
You gotta learn to give
and wait your turn
and only concern

I'm adding something new to the mixture
so there's a different hue to your picture
a different ending to this fairy tale
we'll know sunset into which we sail

You want everything to be just like (2x)
The stories that you read but you can't write (You can't write)
You gotta learn to live
and live and learn
Oh, you gotta learn to give
and wait your turn
or you'll get burned

Tim Buckley - Grief In My Soul

I've got ten thousand troubles, a million woes.
I got grief in my soul nobody knows.

I got heartaches, I got stingin' water fallin' out of the sky.
I got a long lost lover, got a reason to die.
I got ten thousand troubles, a million woes.
I got grief in my soul nobody knows.

I got sorrow.
I'm in a storm that'll spare no travelin' man.
I fear tomorrow.
Got a love that died long before it began.
I got ten thousand troubles, a million woes.
I got grief in my soul nobody knows.

Got a cold chain.
I got rain fallin' on my head from above.
I got a bad pain.
I got a gal don't know the meaning of love.
I got ten thousand troubles, a million woes.
I got grief in my soul nobody knows.

I got heartaches, I got stingin' water fallin' out of the sky.
I got a long lost lover, got a reason to die.
I got ten thousand troubles, a million woes.
I got grief in my soul nobody knows.

Sufjan Stevens - Super Sexy Woman

She's a superhuman girl
She is superwoman
She is Superman's cousin
She's got superpower loving

She's got superhuman eyes
For seeing through superhuman vision
She's got superhuman thighs
Sexier than television

She is super duper smart
I like her for her mind
She'll shoot a super fart
The deadly silent kind

She's got superhuman lips, for super suction
She's got superpower hips, for super reproduction

She's a superhuman girl
She is superwoman
She is Superman's cousin
She's got superpower loving

She's got superhuman eyes
To see through superhuman vision
She's got superhuman thighs
Sexier than television

She's a lot like Catwoman
Just without the leather
She likes whips and chains
And an electronic feather

She's got a super long tongue
And spandex underwear
She's got a Superman smile
And Wonder Woman's hair

She's a superhuman girl
She is superwoman
She is Superman's cousin
She's got superpower loving

She's got superhuman eyes
To see through superhuman vision
She's got superhuman thighs
Sexier than television

She is Supergirl, Superwoman, Supersexywoman

Donovan - Catch The Wind

In the chilly hours and minutes,
Of uncertainty, I want to be,
In the warm hold of your loving mind.

To feel you all around me,
And to take your hand, along the sand,
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

When sundown pales the sky,
I wanna hide a while, behind your smile,
And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.

For me to love you now,
Would be the sweetest thing, 'twould make me sing,
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind.

When rain has hung the leaves with tears,
I want you near, to kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind.

For standin' in your heart,
Is where I want to be, and I long to be,
Ah, but I may as well, try and catch the wind.

She looks like a man in that video, I thought it was Chris Rock in drag.

Aqualung - Can't Get You Out Of My Mind

A kiss is not just a kiss.
A smile is more than a smile
Maybe we get together
Maybe forever
Maybe just for a while

I've seen the look in your eye
I've seen you wondering why
There's a center of gravity
Brings you near to me
Near all the time

And I'm petrified, hypnotized
Every time you walk by
And I can't get you out of my

Thought you'd never be mine
I thought I was wasting my time
Darling every day I think of you
I can't believe it's true
That you're here by my side

And I'm petrified, hypnotized
Every time you walk by
And I'm hypnotized, petrified
Every time you walk by
And I can't you out of my mind.

My mind.

I can't get you out of my mind.
I can't get you out of my mind.
Can't get you out of my mind.

Christina Aguilera - Beautiful

everyday is so wonderful
then suddenly
its hard to breath
now and then i get insecure
from all the pain
im so ashamed

[chorus]
i am beautiful
no matter what they say
coz words cant bring me down

i am beautiful
in every single way
coz words cant bring me down

dont you bring me down today

to all your friends your delerious
so consumed
in all your doom

trying hard
to feel the emptyness
the piece is gone
left the puzzle undone

[chorus]
you are beautiful
no matter what they say
coz words cant bring you down

you are beautiful
in every single way
coz words cant bring you down

dont you bring me down today


no matter where we go
no matter what they say
coz the song inside the tune
is full of beautiful mistakes

and everywhere we go
the sun will always shine
(the sun will always
always shine!)


[chorus]
we are beautiful
no matter what they say
coz words cant bring us down

we are beautiful
in every single way
coz words wont bring us down

dont you bring me down.........today


Coldplay - Fix You

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
When you too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just watch and learn

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you


Queen - Too Much Love Will Kill You

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In me tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you

Every time

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time

Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end.

Nick Drake - Time Has Told Me

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind.

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
Someday our ocean
Will find its shore.

So I'll leave the ways that are making me be
What I really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making me love
What I really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You came with the dawn
A soul with no footprint
A rose with no thorn.

Your tears they tell me
There's really no way
Of ending your troubles
With things you can say.

And time will tell you
To stay by my side
To keep on trying
'til there's no more to hide.

So leave the ways that are making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways that are making you love
What you really don't want to love.

Time has told me
You're a rare rare find
A troubled cure
For a troubled mind.

And time has told me
Not to ask for more
For some day our ocean
Will find its shore.
