Songs: Aqualung, Brian McKnight

"If I Fall," Aqualung.  A quiet, wistful song, full of hope and yearning.

Swept away
By the wonder of it all
So amazed
Never saw it coming
Left me dazed
And I don't know where to turn

Here and now
Seems I'm standing on the edge
Looking down
I can clearly see your face
In the crowd
Makes me feel I'm not alone

If I fall
Will you catch me

Seems to me
I'm exactly where I dreamt
I would be
And the view from here is
Something to see
But I need a hand to hold on to

If I fall
Will you catch me


"Superhero," Brian McKnight.  Well, any song with the lyrics "Kal-el/ Son of Jor-el/ All my secrets/ You can never tell" is probably going to make it on here eventually.  :) 


One look in your eye
Though I'm stronger than a locomotive
I can't tell a lie
Now that you've become my very life
Enough is enough
No more disguise
I'm yours
Baby you're mine
I'm your superhero
For you I will fight
I'll save your life
I'm your superhero
All day
All night
Kal-el
Son of Jor-el
All my secrets
You can never tell
And you know why
Especially about the kryptonite
And by the way
I can fly
I'm yours
Baby you're mine
I'm your superhero
For you I will fight
I'll save your life
I'm your superhero
All day
All night
I can't see through lead
But I am faster than a speeding bullet
You are all I need to make it
Throught his lonely
Daily planet
I'm yours
Baby you're mine
I'm your superhero
For you I will fight
I'll save your life
I'm your superhero
All day
All night

That's some nice subtle groping going on there in your icon...

Clark is nothing if not subtle! The icon is from the slashiest issue of World's Finest ever--I can't find the original scans now, but the other icons should give the general idea if you haven't run into it already.

That is one of my favourite issues, I will bluntly refute any argument that it's not intentionally gayer than the gayest thing ever. I should update my icons...

That HAS to have been intentional. It cracks me up every time. The hand and glove fitting together! The manly weeping at the sight of the alien worms copulating and dying! "Neither of us should be alone tonight!" *sighs* Oh, DC...

Thank you so much for sharing this! :D

The second one is just plain fun! I'll sing it doing my housework, lol...

Oooh, I really like the first one! It's helping my sore head. :) Geeky songs FTW!! :D

[identity profile] mithen.livejournal.com 2009-03-16 10:41 am (UTC)(link)
Your head hurts? Noes! *gives you virtual asprin*

I guess the song will have to count for virtual asprin, lol...

All better now! The song helped a lot. :)

I think I'll try the second one. Thanks!

I'm surprised you don't already have it! It's a cool song, enjoy!

Have you ever listened to 'Locking Up the Sun', by Poets of the Fall? That song is also a good Batman/Superman song--not so much a love song, maybe, but I think the lyrics are reminscent of both of them, I think, their contrasts and their similarities ...

Here's a link to the video, if you're curious:

I have that one! Isn't it great? It's on my S/B list, lol, totally...

[identity profile] hopeofdawn.livejournal.com 2009-03-22 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
It is very very cool music, yes--I've listened to it more times than I can count! :) I like making playlists of characters I RP or write for ... I don't have much for S/B yet, but I really like the 'Superhero' piece you put up--I never would have found it on my own, so thank you! ^____^
