Post-Wedding Song(s)

A nice little song that A3's husband played for me the day after his wedding. I like it -- it's called "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt. (Also, the song Goodbye My Lover was so sad but I really liked it.)

My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Fucking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

Luckiest

Apparently it's more like song of the month. I was busy with my band, Angerhard Eclectic, rehearsing for our Amishville gig last weekend. And now I'm out of town for A3's wedding, but luckily I have a couple tracks already online. Here is our band's own Luckiest Girl in the World. Our band leader and main singer wrote it just before her boyfriend broke up with her, so it's sort of tragic. But we had tons of fun with it, even though our guitar player told me my piano stuff sounds like the theme song from Alf. Hmmmm.

I worked out some better piano riffs and found a nicer piano sound for the concert version of this -- hope to get a better recording some time since this is a really rough demo. But I love it anyway!
