Forgive Me, Father, For I Have Sinned…
So on the way into work this morning I heard the Snow Patrol song with that whole “If I lay here. If I just lay here. Would you lie with me and just forget the world?” (or some junk like that) chorus. I think it’s called “Chasing Cars,” but don’t quote me on that. Anyway, so I hear this song and I find myself enjoying it in spite of myself. I came to the conclusion that I, in fact, like this song. Now, admitting this to others is another matter entirely and I’m not quite sure I’m ready to take that step. It’s not a good song, but I like it. And I’m not going to beat myself up about it. So there. Except I am. Crap. I’m all torn up inside.
So I thought this would be a good forum for me to purge my soul of all the admittedly crappy songs that I am hesitant to admit a like for. Today, this Snow Patrol song. Next week I’m sure there will be something else. I’m not worried about running out of songs. As any former roommate of mine will tell you, I like a lot of crap. Plus, the VH1 Top 20 Countdown will continually update me on the all the crap I am loathe to like. It has caused me to actually love that damn All-American Rejects song “Move Along.” GREAT video. Catchy effin’ song. I love it. And I apologize for my love. I can’t help myself.
I’d like to say I will go forth and try to sin no more, but that would be a lie. I think I may kinda like that Gym Class Heroes song.
I loathe myself…
Do you of you have any crappy song confessionals you’d like to share? I know you do because somehow that dude from Matchbox 20 has a career.
Comment away, good readers. I can’t promise absolution, but I can promise to make fun of you behind your back…
…with that damn Snow Patrol song on my iPod.
