You can post as many as you want, but there has to be a video and lyrics.

THE GORIES - VIEW FROM HERE



I saw a body on channel 39
I had to go where it wouldn’t be in my sight
I had to go out at night

I started driving through the woods alone
I went to the love shack but the love shack was closed
I had to go back home

I got out someplace to comb my hair
I turned around but I didn’t see nobody there
It was the wind in my hair

Well that’s the view from here
Well that’s the view from here
Well that’s the view from here

I’d go to heaven but it might be closed
If I go to heaven I’ll probably be all alone
There won’t be nobody home

One of these days, I’m gonna shout,
“Won’t somebody open the world up and let me out?”
That’s what it’s all about

Well that’s the view from here
Well that’s the view from here
Well that’s the view from here
 
I really liked that.
"I turned around but I didn’t see nobody there
It was the wind in my hair" yeah *sigh*

Here's mine:

I love this song, but it hurts me every time I listen to it. Like right now...

Kings Of Convenience - Misread

If you wanna be my friend
You want us to get along
Please do not expect me to
Wrap it up and keep it there
The observation I am doing could
Easily be understood
As cynical demeanour
But one of us misread...
And what do you know
It happened again

A friend is not a means
You utilize to get somewhere
Somehow I didn't notice
friendship is an end
What do you know
It happened again

How come no-one told me
All throughout history
The loneliest people
Were the ones who always spoke the truth
The ones who made a difference
By withstanding the indifference
I guess it's up to me now
Should I take that risk or just smile?

What do you know
It happened again
What do you know
 
How do you actually post a video on here? I couldn't figure it out.

THAT IS AN AWESOME VIDEO. I'm thinking of directing a one-shot film soon. I think they are using a crane and the tree disguises the cuts. But seriously, wow. Nice song as well. Strange that both of our songs have happy tunes but depressing lyrics - those are the saddest songs, I find.
 
Haha I was doing it all wrong before as well, but then I quoted someone just to see how they did it. All you do is put the part of the youtube URL that comes after the equals sign between:

[youtube]
and
[youtube] (but the second one has a / in front of the "youtube." It's similar to quoting something. I can't type it otherwise it just comes up with a blank box, sorry.)

So if it was
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37k_Ri1XxEc

It would be the bit in bold.

I hope that made sense. I'm not always the best at explaining.

I'm glad you liked it. It think it's a neat video as well. Using the tree to disguise cuts? That's interesting; I'd never thought of that. Good luck on your video :)

I think you're right about the saddest songs being those where an upbeat tune is juxtaposed by depressing lyrics. It's just like how people can be.
 
I've got another one. It's the one in my sig.

Alameda

You walk down Alameda shuffling your deck of trick cards over everyone
Like some precious only son
Face down, bow to the champion
You walk down Alameda looking at the cracks in the sidewalk, thinking about your friends
How you maintain all them in a constant set of suspense

For your own protection, over their affection
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own 'cos you can't finish what you start

Walk down Alameda brushing off the nightmares you wish could plague me when I'm awake
So now you see your first mistake was thinking that you could relate
For one or two minutes she liked you
But the fix is in

You're all pretension, I never pay attention
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own 'cos you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own 'cos you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
You broke your own 'cos you can't finish what you start
Nobody broke your heart
If you're alone, it must be you that wants to be apart

I don't know what he is saying (screaming), but the title is enough to describe my life. Plus it's my fav badass song :D
 
This song EXACTLY describes my life right now ...

The Monks - Cuckoo

[youtube]nXKQSxsEAEQ[/youtube]

Cuckoo, cuckoo,
Who's got the cuckoo?
Now someone stole my cuckoo,
And I wanna know who who
Did you take my . . .

Now someone thinks I'm a fool!
Who's got it, who who?
Have you got my . . .

Now if you ain't got my cuckoo,
Who are you, who who?
Hey, you're my cuckoo!
 
Alice in Chains - Black Gives Way To Blue

Link :

Lyrics :

I don't wanna feel no more
It's easier to keep falling
Imitations are pale
Emptiness all tomorrows
Haunted by your ghost

Lay down, black gives way to blue
Lay down, I'll remember you

Fading out by design
Consciously avoiding changes
Curtains drawn now it's done
Silencing all tomorrows
Forcing a goodbye

Lay down, black gives way to blue
Lay down, I'll remember you...
 
Still Fly by Devil Wears Prada
[youtube]4fzE7wzrByE[/youtube]

Chorus:
Gator boots, With a pimped out Gucci suit.
Aint got no job, but I'm still sharp.
Cant pay my rent cause all my money's spent.
But that's ok, cause I'm Still Fly.

Gotcha car play gems on shine, said it's mine, get a mink, baby girl lets ride
You da Numba 1 stunna, and we gonna glide
And go straight to the mall, and turn out the inside
Prowler Gucci full length leather, Bourbons cooler, Gucci sweater
Twenty inches pop my feather, The Bird man daddy, I fly in any weather
Alligator seats with the head in the
Inside
Swine on the dash, G-Wagon so Fly
Numba 1 don't tangle and twist
When it come to these cars my hands are faithful
The Gucci with the matching interior
3 wheel ride with the tire in the middle
It's Fresh and stunna and we like brothers,
We shine like paint daddy this our summer

Gator Boots, with the pimped out Gucci suit
Ain't got no job, but I stay sharp
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent
But that's OK, cause I'm still fly
Got a quarter tank of gas in my new E-class
But that's alright cause I'm gon' ride
Got everything in my momma's name
But I'm hood rich da dada dada da

Have you ever seen the crocodile seats in the truck?
Turn around and sit it down and let em' bite ya butt
See, the steering wheel is Fendi, dashboard Armani,
With your baby momma, playa, is where you can find me
Pushing through the parking lot on 24's Cadillac Escalade with the chromed out nose
With the navigation arrow headed straight to iHop
Aunt Jamaima really likes me cause my syrup is so hot
Put the Caddy up, Start the 3 wheel Benz
Hyper white lights, ultra violet lens
Sumitomo tires and they gotta be run flat
T.V., where the horn go, boy can you top that?
I'ma show you something rookie press that button
The trunk went Eh-eh and all of a sudden
4 15's didn't see no wire's, and then I heard BOOM from the amplifiers

(BOOM, BOOM)

Let me slide in the Benz with the fished out fins
Impala Loud pipes, Bringing the mayhem
It's the birdy birdy man I'll do it again
In the Cadillac truck 24's with 10's
Looking at my Gucci it's about that time
6 rad dudes flying in at 9
New Suburban truck with paint job showin'
Black and White and Red and Gold and
Bodies on the Roadster Lexus You know with that hard top beamer
Momma that's your truck
I'm coming up the hood been lovely
Open up the top and I wake up the bubbly
430 lex with convertible top
The rims keep spinnin every time I stop
I got a superman Benz that I scored from Shaq
With a old school Caddy with a diamond in the back

Gator Boots, with the pimped out Gucci suit
Ain't got no job, but I stay sharp
Can't pay my rent, cause all my money's spent
But that's OK, cause I'm still fly
Got a quarter of tank gas in my new E-class
But that's alright cause I'm gon' ride
Got everything in my momma's name
But I'm hood rich da dada dada da
 
Few and Far Between by 10,000 Maniacs. I should have listened more closely to it before it became a reality.
 
Now I'm thinking Rod Stewart..

"Some Guys Have All The Luck"

Chorus:
Some guys have all the luck
Some guys have all the pain
Some guys get all the breaks
Some guys do nothing but complain

Alone in a crowd on a bus after work
and I'm dreaming
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms
My arms are empty
How does it feel when the girl next to you
says she loves you
It seem so unfair when there's love everywhere
but there's none for me

(Chorus)

Someone to take on a walk by the lake
Lord let it be me
Someone who's shy
Someone who'll cry at sad movies
I know I would die if I ever found out
she was fooling me
You're just a dream and as real as it seems
I ain't that lucky

(Chorus)

All of my friends have a ring on their finger
They have someone
Someone to care for them it ain't fair
I got no one
The car overheated
I called up and pleaded
There's help on the way
I called you collect you didn't accept
You had nothing to say

(Chorus)

But if you were here with me
I'd feel so happy I could cry
You are so dear to me
I just can't let you say goodbye
 
Everything happens to me - Frank Sinatra
then 1940 version, not the 1957 one that is all about alcohol


I make a date for golf -
You can bet you life it rains.
I try to give a party -
And the guy upstairs complains.
I guess I'll go thru life;
Just catchin' colds and missin' trains,
Ev'rything happens to me.

I never miss a thing -
I've had measles and the mumps.
And ev'ry time I play my ace -
My partner always trumps.
I guess I'm just a fool;
Who never looks before he jumps,
Ev'rything happens to me.

At first my heart tho't;
You could break this jinx for me.
That love would turn the trick;
To end my despair.
But now, I just can't fool
This head that thinks for me.
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air.

I've telegraphed and called;
I sent air mail special, too;
You answer was goodbye -
And there was even postage due.
I fell in love just once;
And then it had to be with you,
Ev'rything happens to me.
