A song that makes me think of Brokeback Mountain
littledarlin:
isabelle, i LOVE pj harvey. i made a mix cd a long time ago after i first saw bbm of songs that reminded me of jack and ennis. this one REALLY sticks out to me, and it's by pj as well:
"Sweeter Than Anything"
In photographs
I've seen him laugh
Hand overboard
Sun on his back
Summer was here
I remember it well
How he stood in the shade
How we both kissed and fell
How can this be
There's nothing left here
So sad our memory
Now he talks in his sleep
Says I've never known peace
And I don't know him now
He's a stranger to me
How can this be
There's nothing left here
We were never more than a dream
Brief as summer or spring
Sweeter than anything
isabelle:
Little darlin (I forget your name, sorry!), another PJ Harvey fan, yay! On which album is this song, please? It does fit well.
And toast (what's YOUR name, if you don't mind me asking?), yours is also VERY much Brokeback.

Now its whiskey and tobacco and bitter black coffee
A lonesome old dogie am I
But wakin up on the range
Lord I feel like an angel
Free like I almost could fly
Drift like a cloud out over the badlands
Sing like a bird in the tree
The wind in the sage sounds like heaven singin
A Song of Wyoming for me
A Song of Wyoming for me

Especially this bit. Gives me the feeling I got, reading Annie Proulx's short story.

Toast:
Keith Urban
Tonight I Wanna Cry
Alone in this house again tonight
I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine
Theres pictures of you and I on the walls around me
the way that it was and should have been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walkin' away
Well I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride
Let it fall like rain, from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry.
Would it help if i turned a sad song on
"All by Myself" would sure hit me hard, now that you're gone
Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters
It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you by hidin' this way
Cause I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride
Let it fall like rain, from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry.
oOOo
Well I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with this pride
Let it fall like rain, from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry.
mmhmm mm
Keith Urban
a country song, and I am NOT a c&w fan - until now.

(what can I say? I'm a romantic)--JLScheib
The first time that ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
and the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
to the dark and the empty skies, my love
to the dark and the empty skies
The first time that ever I lay with you
and felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
and last till the end of time, my love,
and last till the ende of time
The first time that ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
like the trembling heart of a captive bird
that was there at my command, my love,
that was there at my command.
