Alicia!: The Musical

set iTunes to shuffle... see what your life is like. Sweeet I love music (lyrics added for extra fun!)

Opening Scene: Such Great Heights/The Postal Service

they will see us waving from such great heights,
"come down now", they'll say
but everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now", but we'll stay...

Wake-Up Scene: Feel Good Lost/Broken Social Scene

instrumental

Average Day: Neighborhood #3/The Arcade Fire

I went out into the night,
I went out to find some light.
Kids are swingin' from the power lines,
nobody's home, so nobody minds.


First Date: Bring on the Terror/Robbers on High Street

Now all of the sons and the daughters
Don't want just what comes along
So give them something more
Come on, Oooh


Falling In Love: Knockin' on Heaven's Door/Eric Clapton (cover)

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore.
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.


Fight Scene: Army Corps of Architects/Death Cab for Cutie

call in the army corps of architects
to flatten the skyline and begin again
I knew the years would move quickly,
but never quite as fast as this
so bring the discrepancies, I'll pour the drinks.


Break-Up: Dirty Little Secret/Sarah McLachlan

Been up all night drinking, to drown my sorrows down...
But nothing seems to help me since you've gone away.
I'm so tired of this town, where every tongue is wagging.
When every back is turned, they're telling secrets that should never be revealed.
There's nothing to be gained from this, but disaster.


Back Together: Don't Speak/No Doubt

Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening

Secret Love: Superspy/Save Ferris

Out of the corner of my eye
Caught a glimpse of the Superspy
When he saw me look his way
He jumped down that alleyway


Life's OK: Do You Remember/Jack Johnson

Do you remember when we first met?
I sure do, it was some time in early September
You were lazy about it, you made me wait around
I was so crazy about you I didn’t mind


Mental Breakdown: Nine Lives/South

We'll talk about forgiveness
I'm here to find the meaning
I miss you at the best of times
You help me walk that fine line


Driving: Under the Bridge/Red Hot Chili Peppers

I drive on her streets 'cause she's my companion
I walk through her hill 'cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and she kisses me windy
I never worry, now that is a lie


Learning A Lesson: Does He Love You?/Rilo Kiley

Get a real job
Keep the wind to your back and the sun on your face
All the immediate unknowns are better than knowing this tired and lonely fate.


Deep Thought: D'yer Mak'er/Led Zeppelin

When I read the letter you wrote, it made me mad mad mad
When I read the news that it brought me, it made me sad sad sad.
But I still love you so, I can't let you go


Flashback: Oh It's Love/ hellogoodbye

Oh, your heart may long for love that is more new
So when I'm gone these words will be here
To ease every fear
And dry up every tear
And make it very clear
I kiss you and I know
It is love from the first
Time I set my hips against yours
Thinking, "Oh, is it love?"


Partying: Fancy Claps/Wolf Parade

We can sing
Two cracks in the crossbeams
We can sing
Very, very quietly
We can sing
We can sing for each other


Happy Dance: Approaching Pavonis Mons by Balloon/The Flaming Lips

instrumental

Regretting: Pictures in an Exhibition/Death Cab for Cutie

i think you caught me on the downslide, downturn
i was busy writing with a pen and paper thin dream
and all your plastic people with plastic hearts and smiles
they had the worst intentions all along after all...


Long Night Alone: Speed of Sound/Coldplay

how long before I get in
before it starts, before I begin
how long before you decide
before I know what it feels like
where to?
Where do I go?
if you've never tried then you'll never know
how long do I have to climb
up on the side of this mountain of mine?


Death Scene: We are all on Drugs/Weezer ...ha!

but the world don't care
if you are or are not there
cause you're on drugs


Closing Credits: Paint's Peeling/Rilo Kiley

the paint's peeling off the streets again
and i'll drive and close my eyes in michigan
and i feel nothing, not brave
it's a hard day for breathing again

I'm pretty sure it needs to be Alicia! The Musical. And what a fabulous musical it would be.

Love,
Clay
