What song is stuck in your head right now?

This is what I probably get for watching the Despicable Me films too many times.

Lorde - Royals

Stay:

All along it was a fever
A cold sweat hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something"
He said, "If you dare, come a little closer"
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take it's given
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
Ooh, ooh, ooh, the reason I hold on
Ooh, ooh, ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone
Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving
'Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay, stay
I want you to stay, hooh

The way

Lazy song

The way I are

Bright Eyes, by Art Garfunkel, which I just saw live on Sunday. He dedicated it to Laurie Bird, which made the song even more poignant and sentimental than ever before.

Laurie Bird was the beautiful young girlfriend he lived with, who died in 1979. Her loss sent him spiralling into a decade of trauma and profound grief: "Laurie was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen anywhere. After her suicide, I didn't have the momentum to stay in life."

Gulp.

Wow , I bet that was an incredible performance to witness and be a part of. I love Bright Eyes , after losing my parents I really feel connected to the song.

What was it like live? If I was well enough I'd love to see him sing live.

I was in a daze, seated front row directly centre stage right in front of him. Best seat in the house. I was just spellbound and can't even remember blinking, to be honest. He looked so much smaller and more frail than I imagined (he's 77 now), but his voice was perfect and he was so genuine. He read quite a bit from his autobiography about his wife and sons, talked about Paul Simon and about Laurie. I was literally in a trance (having flown all the way to Nashville to see him, and being so close I could have touched him). He smiled and winked at me and waved with his fingers (while holding the mike) during the song The Boxer. I'm still in shock of it all and needing to process the feelings. There was a strict "No photos of Art" rule or else you'd be kicked out and have your phone taken away, and being in the front row I couldn't take chances. I have some photos of the stage in the "What Made You Happy" thread.

Sound of Silence in all blue / black lighting was cathartic for me.

I'm so sorry you lost you parents. These songs all represent profound loss for me as well, including the suicide of my grandfather who had ASD.

Hugs.
