"Anna Begins" has probably some of the best lyrics..the one you wrote is one of my faves..along with "and every word is nonsense, but i understand and oh lord..." Adam Duritz is a talented man..hehehe..

 

I only have "Recovering the Satellites" , "August and Everything After" and "This Desert Life"..i don't have their new album yet...but "American Girls" is my "feel-good song"..hahaha...

Oh, what the hell..i'm gonna post the "Anna Begins" lyrics...everyone should listen to this song..it' great..

 

"Anna Begins"

 

My friend assures me "it's all or nothing"

I am not worried- I am not overly concerned

My friend implores me " for one time only,

make an exception." I am not not worried

Wrap her up in a package of lies

Send her off to a coconut island

I am not worried - I am not overly concerned

with the status of my emotions

"oh", She says, "were changing."

But were always changing

It does not bother me to say this isn't love

Because if you don't want to talk about it then it isn't love

and I guess I'm going to have to live that

but, I'm sure there's something in a shade of gray

or something in between

and I can always change my name if that's what you mean

My friend assures me "it's all or nothing`

But I am not really worried

I am not overly concerned

You try to tell your self the things you try tell your self to make

yourself forget

to make your self forget

I am not worried

"If it's love" she said, "then were gonna have to think about the

consequences"

She can't stop shaking and I can t stop touching her and.....

This time when kindness falls like rain

It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind

"these seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering

for days" she says.

And I'm not ready for this sort of thing

But I'm not gonna break

And I'm not going to worry about it anymore

I'm not gonna bend. And I'm not gonna break and

I'm not gonna worry about it anymore

It seems like I should say "as long as this is love..."

But it's not all that easy so maybe I should just

snap her up in a butterfly net-

Pin her down on a photograph album

I am not worried

I've done this sort of thing before

But then I start to think about the consequences

Because I don't get no sleep in a quiet room and...

The time when kindness falls like rain

It washes me away and Anna begins change my mind

And every time she sneezes I believe it's love

and oh lord.... I'm not ready for this sort of thing

She s talking in her sleep-it s keeping me awake

And Anna begins to toss and turn

And every word is nonsense but I understand and and

oh lord. I m not ready for this sort of thing

Her kindness bangs a gong

It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away

It s chasing me away.

She dissappears, and oh lord I'm not ready for this sort of thing

Counting Crows are doing a summer tour with John Mayer, but they aren't coming to Toronto :cry:

But I did see Counting Crows when they opened up for The Who, but they weren't good at all :?

  • Author

i am thinking of seeing them at the Royal Albert Hall :)

  • Author

cool..that would probably be a fun show! :)

New Frontier- Counting Crows

 

I don't know if someone's already posted about this...I'm too :oops: lazy to look through all the threads...

 

This song is awesome!!! It's on their new album. They almost sound a little REMish.

 

Love it! I think I'll hear it again. Awesome guitars! :multi: :smileyround: :usa:

Adam Duritz is such a wonderful lyricist. I'm so ecstatic that I get to see them because they are just fantabulous.

i bought the last album i was missing yesterday - got them all now :D
