"Room Without a View" is an awesome Smithereens song (the vocals, melody, bassline! 🤯) and I found this GREAT fan-made video for it that really sums up the whole thing.
Today’s #TuneTuesday prompt is #BreakUpOrMakeUp. I’ll be taking the option of posting two songs, a heartbreak song and a love song.
Heartbreak: Slipknot - Snuff
I went through a really bad breakup several years back, left me in a really bad place for months. This song was deep in my rotation during that time. https://songwhip.com/slipknot/snuff
Love: Rod Stewart - Have I Told You Lately
He might be corny AF, but a lot of “love” songs read as obsession songs to me, come across a little (or more than a little) creepy. There’s a reason that Sting song from the perspective of a stalker gets mistaken for a love song to this day. By contrast, this one always felt real, felt genuinely sweet in a way. https://songwhip.com/rod-stewart/have-i-told-you-lately2021
For the break up, a beautiful, heartbreaking song from Evergrey. It's about Tom's break up with his ex-wife Carina. And she sang in it too.
Despite the sad mood, the lyrics clearly talks about an amicable separation
A bit of Kitch for #TuneTuesday#BreakUpOrMakeUp. This is My Wife Went Away With Yankee, in which our hero's beloved finds that poor Kitch just doesn't make enough money as a Calypsonian. Plus the American soldier that she's met is simply hotter than he is.
Aww so many love songs in my feed this week! :blobhaj_heart:
For #TuneTuesday#BreakUpOrMakeUp I'm going with this pair of SKZ-RECORD tracks from gorgeous Han ... I love the production on both .. they're so creative. 😎 💜
