Song: Long Time Coming
Artist: Oliver James From, What A Girl Wants

Anyone else recovering from Valentine's Day?

I definitely over-did my chocolate/over-all sugar intake yesterday. My evening ended with a massive stomachache, lol. It was a long, somewhat painful night but I woke up feeling mostly recovered. I guess you could say I was really treating myself!

Anyway, today's song is from a movie I loved as a young pre-teen, What A Girl Wants! I got the soundtrack for my birthday years ago and would listen to it all of the time. This song though is one that I still find myself listening too! It's so sweet and romantic. I love, love, LOVE the lyrics!! It makes me feel hopeful of finding love some day because heaven knows it will have been a "loooooong time coming!" ;)


Everybody wants to be loved
Every once in a while
We all need someone to hold on to
Just like a helpless child
(Yeah)
Can you whisper in my ear
Let me know its all right

It's been a long time coming down this road
And now I know what I've been waiting for
Just like a lonely highway
I'm trying to get home, ooh ooh
Love's been a long time coming

You can look for a lifetime
You could love for a day
You can think you've got everything but
Everything is nothing when you throw it away
(Yeah)
Then you look in my eyes
And I have it all once again

It's been a long time coming down this road
And now I know what I've been waiting for
Just like a lonely highway
I'm trying to get home, ooh ooh
Love's been a long time coming

Didn't know I was lost
Till you found me
Didn't know I was blind
But now I see

Can you whisper in my ear?
Let me know, it's all right

It's been a long time coming down this road
And now I know what I've been searching for
Been a long, long highway
And now I see, ooh ooh
Love's been a long time
Oh, been a long time
Love's been a long time coming.

Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You"

Song: Morticia and Gomez Addams Love Song: "Rot Next to You" Artist: The Hound + The Fox Wow this is so good! 🥀 So, funny enough, I just watched the 1990's Addams Family film for the first time eva a couple days ago and then  this video pops up on my youtube feed (if this isn't proof that the government is stalking us through technology IDK what is! 😱). Anyway, even though I didn't care for the movie all that much, I thought this song captured Morticia and Gomez perfectly! And it's actually a really, beautiful love song for Halloween time! I especially like the bridge (and I'm pretty sure it's a direct quote from the movie because when I heard them singing it I was like "That sounds familiar...." 🤔). We all need somebody to rot next to at the end.... 😂 Sorry about the dark humor 😈🖤🥀 I see you like  A night with a full moon  I feel you like a flame  You cast a spell on me  I like how you make me weak  I play you like a game  I hope w

Siren Call

Song: Siren Call Artist: Hanson This song is off of Hanson's Fan Club EP: Loud (2016). I have been slightly obsessed with this haunting song as of late. This song is about dealing with depression ( Zac Hanson even said so ! Be forewarned, explicit language is used in this video. I'm so sorry). Once I heard Zac explain the meaning and message behind this song it made so much sense to me! I have always loved it and I've always known it had a powerful message but I could never quite figure out what it was. This song is about struggling. Being weighed-down by the burdens and challenges life brings to each and every one of us. When we stop and allow ourselves to "give in" to the pain and sadness that comes with the stress of life, that's when we begin to slip and fall into a deep depression. That's when our "Siren's Call" us. And pull us down. No straighter path than to struggle .... This is perfect. And it's true. Life is a constan

Song: Sally's Song and Corpse Bride Medley Artist: From Youtube I found this really creepy, cool medley/cover on youtube. I really like it! Major  Halloween  vibes from two  Halloween  inspired movies. The  Corpse Bride  lyrics were written by the person who posted/sang this song. She does a great job! Thanks for sharing  Trickywi ! I sense there's something in the wind That feels like tragedy's at hand And though I'd like to stand by him Can't shake this feeling that I have The worst is just around the bend And does he notice my feelings for him? And will he see how much he means to me? I think it's not to be Under a tree at quarter three, I had some hope in me But life was taken from me, but I did not feel peace I made a vow within my gown that love will come to me But there he is and suddenly I had been found I adore him What will become of my dear friend Where will his actions lead us then? Although I'd like to join the crowd In their enth
