30 dagar - Del 21 - Min favoritlåt
Den här är ju egentligen helt omöjlig att svara på eftersom det finns så många underbara låtar. Vilken som är favorit beror ju helt på i vilket sammanhang man lyssnar på den och vad man har för dagsform. Det finns hur många saker som helst som spelar roll.
Men, jag har valt en låt som jag efter många år av funderingar valt att kalla min favoritlåt. Den betyder väldigt mycket för mig, jag tröttnar aldrig på den och jag byter aldrig bort den om den dyker upp på spellistan. Det kan gå månader mellan gångerna jag lyssnar på den, men den kommer alltid att finnas där.

Stand up straight
Do your trick
Turn on the stars
Jupiter shines so bright
When you're around they tell us slow down,
We're too young you need to grow
The speed's the key
And they don't know who we are
And who's to say that we're not good enough?
And who's to say that this is not our love?
Mother don't tell me friends are the ones that I lose
'Cause they'd bleed before you
And sometimes family are the ones you'd choose
It's too late now
I hold on to this life I found
And who's to say we won't burn it out?
And who's to say we won't sink in doubt?
Who's to say that we won't fade to gray?
Who are they anyway? Anyway they don't know
And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember
And I try to pretend but I just feel it when we're together
And if you don't believe me, you never really knew us
You never really knew
You and I, packin' up my room, we feel alright
But we're not welcome, soon
We'll be drivin', 'cause they don't know who we are
Who's to say we won't stay together?
Who's to say we aren't getting stronger?
Who's to say I can't live without you?
Who are they anyway? Anyway they don't know
And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember
And I try to pretend, but I just feel it when we're together
Who is to say?
And who is to say?
And who are they anyway?
Stand up straight, I shine so bright when you're around
Who's to say kommer från Vanessa Carltons andra album Harmonium. Tyvärr fick hon bara släppa en singel från det albumet, underbara White Houses. Vanessa Carlton är en av de bästa singer/songwriters jag vet och det är riktigt tråkigt att hennes musik inte får större genomslag. Kämpa på!
