Getting in the Christmas spirit. Going to attempt to post a Christmas song a day til Christmas. First up Joni Mitchell’s “River”.
Gorgeous classic also covered by James Taylor, Beth Orton, and Sara McLachlan quite beautifully. Some may be repeats from previous holiday posts, but I have my faves, what can I say.

“Gooey”
Let me show you everything I know
The jungle slang
Spinning around my head and I stare
While my naked fool
Fresh out of an icky gooey womb
A woozy you
Dopes upon a silky smooth perfume
Right my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand
I’d say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes
Mind my simple song, this ain’t gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can’t take this place, I can’t take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space
Truth be told
I’ve been here, I’ve done this all before
I take your gloom
I cut it up and puff it into bloom
Right my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand
I’d say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes
Mind my simple song, this ain’t gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can’t take this place, I can’t take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space
Hold my hand, flow back to the summer time
Tangled in the willows now our tongues are tied
How can I believe you, how can I be nice
Tripping around the tree stumps in your summer smile
Right my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance?
Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand
I’d say I told you so but you just gonna cry
You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes
Mind my simple song, this ain’t gonna work
Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs
I can’t take this place, I can’t take this place
I just wanna go where I can get some space

WANTED: A soul mate with a creative vision and boundless depth
LYRICS
So, will you never be my lover or my valentine?
Never be a friend of mine, never see my better side
Baby, you’d be terrified
Of all the secrets you were wishing you won’t ever find
Is deep inside me
And I don’t wanna hide me
‘Cause I know about my love
‘Cause I know about my love
‘Cause I know about my love
‘Cause I know about my love
Pick up fast and I could fly far away from here (Fly away)
Although I know I feel at home whenever you are near
Boo, I love you but I can’t cold-cut to this
(So, just don’t cut it, I want you near)
I wish you’d hold me open and just to see your vision clear
(I’m always here)
(‘Cause I know about my love)
‘Cause I know about my love
(‘Cause I know about my love)
‘Cause I know about my love
(‘Cause I know about my love)
‘Cause I know about my love
(‘Cause I know about my love)
‘Cause I know, know, know about my love

Alt-J “Hunger of the Pine”
August 5, 2014
Lets just forget about who they are sampling
Sleeplessly embracing
Butterflies and needles
Line my seamed-up join
Encased in case I need it
In my stomach, for my heart
Chain mail
Hunger of the pine
Hunger of the pine
Sleeplessly embracing
Yawn yearns into me
Plenty more tears in the sea
And so you finally use it
Bedding with me you see at night
Your heart wears knight armour
Hunger of the pine
(I’m a female rebel…)
Sleeplessly
Embracing
You
Realization grew on me
As quickly as it takes your hand
To warm the cool side of the pillow
I’m there for you, be there for me
I’ll hum the song the soldiers sing
As they march outside our window
Hunger of the pine
Sleeplessly
Embracing
You

Clearly he’s a Red Hot Chili Peppers fan. Pretty cool. Some more identifiable than others, but pretty pretty cool!
