charliecapen: I’ve been coming to #mom2summit for over a decade. Returning to talk about @towwn & brand partnerships has been the reunion I didn’t know I needed with a community of women who shaped my career. Thank you for listening to me ramble this morning. There’s just so much to say, and so much I wish I could share about all the mistakes I’ve made along the way. Sending lots of love to @lauramayes, @carriepacini & @superjohn on yet another successful event in the books. And it was so great meeting you @ingridmichaelson + @jopiazzaauthor.

Covers included: A*Teens, 2002; Ingrid Michaelson, 2008; twenty one pilots, 2012; Kina Grannis, 2017; Ice Nine Kills, 2021
A tender ballad about being unable to resist falling in love, “Can’t Help Falling in Love” is one of Elvis' most famous and romantic songs. Originally recorded to tie along with his movie, Blue Hawaii, the song has since been covered by various other artists, from U2 and Britney Spears to twenty one pilots. Rolling Stone ranked it as the 5th best Elvis song of all time, and it was also ranked as the 50th most popular wedding song by Billboard magazine.
[Verse 1]
Wise men say
"Only fools rush in"
But I can't help
Falling in love with you
[Verse 2]
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help
Falling in love with you?
[Chorus]
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 3]
Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help
Falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Outro]
Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help
Falling in love with you
For I can't help
Falling in love with you
Work Song
Written By: Hozier
Artist: Hozier
Released: 2014
Alternate version included: Live in America, 2015
This is the only song on Hozier’s self titled album to have a title that is not entirely composed of lyrics from the song. The song is about the love of a worker’s life lending him strength during a hard day’s work. The song encompasses indie with strong influences on folk, blues and negro spirituals.
[Verse 1]
Boys, workin' on empty
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
I just think about my baby
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
There's nothin' sweeter than my baby
I'd never want once from the cherry tree
'Cause my baby's sweet as can be
She give me toothaches just from kissin' me
[Chorus]
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
[Verse 2]
Boys, when my baby found me
I was three days on a drunken sin
I woke with her walls around me
Nothin' in her room but an empty crib
And I was burning up a fever
I didn't care much how long I lived
But I swear, I thought I dreamed her
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
[Chorus]
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
[Bridge]
My babe would never fret none
About what my hands and my body done
If the Lord don't forgive me
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
When I was kissin' on my baby
And she'd put her love down, soft and sweet
In the low lamplight, I was free
Heaven and hell were words to me
[Chorus]
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her
When my time comes around
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
No grave can hold my body down
I'll crawl home to her

Parachute - Alec/Eliot/Parker Fanvid by twwings
Sorry, Leverage OT3 Shippers, I'm stealing your song. XD A little more seriously, I saw that post about "Leverage OT3 propaganda" reblogged over on @polyshipweek, decided to check out the video, and ended up really liking it and the song. And because it was an OT3 video, I naturally started associating the song with my OWN Valicer OT3. :) The actual lyrics might be a little more plain Valice (referencing things like keeping a relationship hidden from the haters, telling someone they're the only one you trust, going "you and me against the world," etc), but I don't think that it's too hard to adapt them to a Valicer situation. After all, twwings did it with the Leverage OT3. XD
And, of course, the specific Valicer situation I'm thinking of is the Valicer In The Dark one -- the attempts at a Valicer music video that keeps popping up inside of my brain involve those three the most. (In particular, one of the "down, down, down" bits sparks an image of Victor falling off a building mid-heist, forcing the other two to help catch him and pull him back up -- which is a scene I'd had in my head before, but it's enhanced by putting it to music.) But yeah, I'm enjoying the vibes here, and I'm happy to add this to my own OT3 playlist. :)

Pink in the Night
Written By: Mitski
Artist: Mitski
Released: 2018
“Pink in the Night”, the tenth track off Be the Cowboy, is an atmospheric love ballad centered around: “…this visual of someone glowing pink because they’re so infatuated.”
[Verse 1]
I glow pink in the night in my room
I've been blossoming alone over you
And I hear my heart breaking tonight
I hear my heart breaking tonight
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ooh, do you hear it too?
It's like a summer shower
[Chorus 1]
With every drop of rain singing
"I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you"
[Verse 2]
I could stare at your back all day
I could stare at your back all day
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I know I've kissed you before, but
[Chorus 2]
I didn't do it right
Can I try again, try again, try again
Try again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again?
