this is one of our favorite songs ever of all time, by one of our favorite artists ever of all time. if we could ever be sung to sleep, this would be the song, noooo question.
to us it’s about how the only thing that matters in real love is what a boy and a girl feel alone in a room together… face to face, heart to heart, soul to soul. nothing else matters. not her fears, not his worries, not time or circumstance or money, not what other people think, not even the world around them falling apart… just the truth that lives and breathes in a pure, faithful, and honest love… and that in his arms is the safest place she could ever be.
“Place your hands on my face, Close my eyes and say, Love is a poor man’s food…” ♥ ♥ ♥
Hold You In My Arms
Ray LaMontagne
we love beautiful instrumental songs – yup, like the no words, just music stuff. if it’s beautiful, epic, touching, inspiring… we love it. we love the way an instrumental song can tell a story, rip your heart open, and even change your view of the world with it’s tiny twists and turns or huge builds on drop offs. one of the groups that’s perfected wordless storytelling is this group, and for us this song is what soulmates sound like. 5:11 to 7:55 of this song is some of the most amazing minutes of music we’ve ever lent our inspired little ears to.
Your Hand In Mine
Explosions In The Sky
we have the biggest crush ever on this song. krissie is obsessed with the lyrics and calls it the “boy with butterflies song!”. so y’all take a listen and crush away 🙂 .
Just A Boy
Angus & Julia Stone
krissie just learned a contemporary dance routine to this song, and she’s got us all super hooked on it now. the lyrics are the kind that hurt a little in your gut… deep, dark and moody, but so honest… and the sound completely grabs us… it’s bluesy and sultry and we likey.
This Is The Thing
Fink
we’re all gypsy spirits… we love things like spontaneous road trips and wandering without a plan, and this song is one of our ultimate “let’s go anywhere, and let’s do everything, because anything is possible” songs.
Hills And Valleys
The Rocket Summer
this band creates such incredibly passionate and beautifully intricate songs. they get to us in all of our little vulnerable and inspired soul places. this song is just one of their amazing soul stirring pieces of magic ♥.
Guard
The Farewell Circuit
this is a super random unsigned electro indie pop band we found a few years ago, and we still can’t get enough of their cd. they’re one of those bands that make songs that sound like layers of beautiful colors and we still repeat their songs like crazy.
Thats What She Said Lyrics
Lovers Ball
