It is way too hot in Austin so I thought I would post some songs that either mention "rain" in their lyrics or sound like water/rain. I may have posted some of these before. Here is the current forecast for Austin, TX ...
Here is a song that I could play over and over again if I had to. It has a sort of submarine sound to it ...
This next song actually mentions "rain" ...
"It's raining all over the world" (yeah, right) ...
This song has always sounded kind of underwater to me ...
This last song takes place when a storm is coming in Bram Stoker's Dracula ...
Also, here is a video from last summer in Austin, when it rained so much that they had to open up the floodgates at Mansfield Dam.
Tori Amos will always be my favorite singer/musician/songwriter/artist (or whatever you want to call her). Her music has carried me through less-than-pleasant times in my life. Today I was really tired because I stayed up too late last night working on a short presentation for my job, and I got up really early this morning to finish it. Therefore, I am totally drained right now. It's funny how I will wake up tomorrow and be rejuvenated just because of 8 measly hours of sleep. I love the process of sleep and its effects.
Anyway, I had a few Tori songs in my head that I have not posted here before, and here they are ...
Tori Amos - Hurt/Caught A Lite Sneeze (in concert)
The "Hurt" part that Tori sings right before "Caught A Lite Sneeze" is based on the song, "Hurt", by Nine Inch Nails.
Tori Amos - Famous Blue Raincoat (cover)
"Famous Blue Raincoat" is a Leonard Cohen song.
Tori Amos - Ain't No Sunshine (cover)
"Ain't No Sunshine" was originally done by Bill Withers in 1971.
I was listening to The Crow soundtrack tonight while playing Kingdom of Loathing (an extremely nerdy, yet addictive online game), and it made me realize how much I have always loved the Nine Inch Nails song, Dead Souls, from the soundtrack.
Nine Inch Nails - Dead Souls
Joy Division - Dead Souls
Here is the trailer on Youtube ...
And here is another song that is played when Patricia Arquette and Balthazar Getty make love on the beach ...
The City of Absurdity: David Lynch's Lost Highway is a cool website with lots of information on this movie, and lots of pictures.
