You Picked Me – A Fine Frenzy
I started the month with an A Fine Frenzy song and I feel like I
need to end the month with one too. This is from the same album as Almost Lover,
the only A Fine Frenzy album that I own. It kind of reminds me of Birds and
Boats by Gregory and the Hawk because it’s about the same sort of feeling. I
like the idea of being the one chosen by somebody, they could’ve gone for anyone
else, but they chose you, for whatever reason. It’s romantic and I’m like
that.
Yo Ho A Pirate’s Life For Me – Disney
I have a massive collection of Disney music and it has taken a
great deal of restraint not to turn this month into an A to Z of Disney Music
(though maybe that’s an idea for next year, X might be a sticking point). Not
only do I have numerous Disney soundtracks, I’ve also got some collections
(Disney’s Greatest Hits complete with sing along CD or Disney Princesses
Christmas songs anyone?) one of which is a collection of Disney Pirate Music.
Bet you didn’t know there were that many pirate songs, let alone enough to fill
a whole Disney CD!
Rather than posting every song from this CD, as I was tempted to,
I went with this one, since I had it on a Disney sing-along video when I was
little. It showed the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland and I used to
watch it pretending that I was really there (you can actually see this on YouTube but it won't let me embed it). I still know all the words to this
song!
Your Song – Ellie Goulding
They used this song on an advert a few years ago and I always used
to stop and listen to it when it was on. I got her album that Christmas but
there aren’t really many songs that stand out like this one does. I’d been
familiar with this song thanks to the Moulin Rouge soundtrack but I like how
this song is a lot softer and gentler than other versions. There's something sort of raw and honest about it which is sort of beautiful.
