Trying my hand at fan-vid making. This is much more meticulous than I thought it was going to be. Not to mention that windows movie maker isn’t exactly bursting with options. :)

First heard this song on the opening credits of The Mind of the Married Man

(C.Coleman, M.Stewart)
[Recorded November 12, 1976, Hollywood]

My thoughts may stray
My eyes may roam
The neighbor’s grass may seem much greener
Than the grass right here at home

If pretty girls excite me
Well, that’s life
But just in case, you didn’t know
I love my wife

My mind at times
May dwell on sex
If someone’s rating dreams
Then most of mine I guess are double X

So dimpled knees delight me
Well, that’s life
But just in case, you hadn’t heard
I love my wife

Like bait that wriggles
And it makes catfish bite
A lady jiggles
And my eyes gotta light
Upon so sweet a sight

And if I shake
Break out in spots
Don’t fret, it’s not swine fever dear
Your swine has merely got the hots

If rosy lips invite me
Well, that’s life
But just in case, you couldn’t guess
I love my wife

My mind at times
May dwell on sex
If someone’s rating dreams
Then most of mine I guess are double X

If rosy lips invite me
Well, that’s life
But just in case, you couldn’t guess
Or hadn’t heard
Or didn’t know
I love my wife
I love my wife
I love my wife

mmm
I love my wife

New Buffalo - “Emotional Champ”

Because it’s super fun to be emotionally rent asunder by Gardens of the Night and want to adopt Gillian Jacobs after watching it.

Goo Goo Dolls - “Name”

Scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there
Did you get to be a star
And don’t it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

Rachael Yamagata - “I’ll Find a Way”

If you held me close, would you laugh it away
Would you dare the glance that I steal to stay

I haven’t seen Cold Mountain yet actually but it does seem to make a nice visual accompaniment to the song, maybe I’ll check it out sometime.

Amy Winehouse - “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow”

    Tonight with words unspoken
    You say that I’m the only one

I first knew of Amy Winehouse through her music and I didn’t really find out about her troubles or really followed it that much when I eventually did. All I really know and what I’ll probably remember 30 years from now about her is her great musical talent and emotion.

Lykke Li’s fantastic cover of Kings of Leon’s “Knocked Up”

I don’t care what nobody says
No, I’m going to be her lover
Always mad and usually drunk
But I love her like no other

And the doctor says he don’t know
Where we gonna go?
I’m a ghost and I don’t think I quite know
Where we’re gonna go? Where we’re gonna go?

[from orig’s lyrics]
