For some reason that is the song I remember the best from the San Francisco trip. I remember hearing it several times - at the Sundance Saloon, in Eric's car and at the Dance for sure. It's a great song  :) Guess I need to vote for it  ;)

Jack, I don't have that song playing on the station unfortunatley.  :(

But yes, we did hear it quite often in San Francisco, didn't we!  :D

jstephens9:
Yes Eric we did hear it a lot. For some reason it seemed to be the theme song of the event. It sure does make me think about everything from the event everytime I hear it. Why do you not have it playing on the staton? Just curious  :)

SFEnnisSF:
Well, the songs on "Brokeback Mountain Radio" are supposed to be themed about the movie and short story.  Here are the lyrics to "Because of You".  I'm not seeing enough of a connection to the movie...  :-\

"Because Of You"

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you
Because of you
