Oh Rivers
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I just made love with your sweet memory
One thousand times in my head
You said you loved it more than ever
You said
You remain turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
I talked for hours to your wallet photograph
And you just listened
You laughed enchanted by my intellect
Or maybe you didn't
You remain turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
You remain, turned away
Turning further every day
The world has turned and left me here
Just where I was before you appeared
And in your place, an empty space
Has filled the void behind my face
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe?
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe what I sing now?
Do you believe?
I miss my Weezer. When I was a 16 year old, music consumed every ounce of my soul. I came home and threw on my Weezer, my Ozma, my Strokes, Jimmy Eat World, and could just listen for hours. I'm tired of music today. I just received my latest edition of Spin and not one of the articles about current musicians did anything for me. I'm sad because I went to my iTunes and I found out that every song I listened to was a minimum of two years old. I was listening to old Weezer, Beatles, old Wilco, old Shins, and some Eric Clapton. I turn on the radio and nothng is doing anything for me. I beg you my friends, make copies of CD's that you think I would have interest in and send them to me. I want to be inspired again. I want to have a new CD that I can't wait to be done with work so I can drive home and listen to it. I've bought quite a few cd's in the past month (New Pornographers, Shins, TV on the Radio, Killers, et cetera) and listened to many good songs but I want some great music. Help me out.

Yeah . . . Everyone I know is experiencing music-fatigue. I know I am, real hard. Have you heard the new Hold Steady album, Boys and Girls in America? That's the most interesting thing I've found in a long time. But I, too, still yearn for an album as good as Weezer's first two.
I have not heard of this Hold Steady you speak of but I am intrigued...
I 'll see what I can do when I come back to MN. Hopefully you will be around for at least part of it. I'll bring my external hard drive and my CDs and you can go nuts.
now, i listen to a different variety variety of music, including my Indian music...and i also find myself in some sort of musical "rut".....long story short...ur not alone
