Thoughts and other ramblings

Ugh, this was a hard choice between PCH and G.O.A.T. but only one can survive and so the winner is PCH.

I’ve been listening to Theory of a Deadman for a few years now, and have some all time favorites like Gentleman, The Truth Is, Hate My Life which I can listen to anytime. I used to listen to their songs back when I was in love with one guy or another and somehow they are that band which is somewhere between pop and rock. They tried harder rock on their previous album Savages, but to be honest, that album didn’t click with me for some reasons – although I love Savages and Livin’ My Life As A Country Song. On their latest album they went for a more popular sound with heavy topics like addiction (Rx). And honestly, this works for me. I’m in love with this album, and listened to it about a 100 times already. They kept their ironical tone too (Po Mouth) and there is a song that just describes me so well (Loner… OMG I should have choosen this one maybe?).

But why I choose PCH is because it reminds me of California, of the nights when I stay awake just because I can, the nights I spent chatting with important people in my life. Taking a walk in the night watching the lights of the city. I always loved being awake at night, and wished I lived by water so I could just sit on a balcony watching the water and the stars, listening to music, writing, reading by a faint light, having a nice chat. Makes me wish to go on a vacation right now. Who’s with me?

Lyrics

PCH is where we lay our heads
The ocean beach is where our feet will land
It’s 3 a.m., we’re out here on our own
So make me home, take me home
The L.A. scene is like a field of dreams
And this field of dreams is made for you and me
It’s 4 a.m., we’re out here on our own
So take me home, just take me home, home

I feel strange, I feel strange
Every time that I’m away from you
No, it don’t feel right, homesick for the city lights
I feel strange, so strange
Every time that I’m away from you
When the rest of the world is sleeping
We’re up all night

PCH is where we race too fast
‘Cause the human race was never meant to last
It’s 5 a.m., we’ll make it on our own
We’re going home, girl, we’re going home, home

I feel strange, I feel strange
Every time that I’m away from you
No, it don’t feel right, homesick for the city lights
I feel strange, so strange
Every time that I’m away from you
When the rest of the world is sleeping
We’re up all night

I feel strange, I feel strange
Every time that I’m away from you
No, it don’t feel right, homesick for the city lights
I feel strange, so strange
Every time that I’m away from you
When the rest of the world is sleeping
We’re up all night
We’re up all night

I feel strange, I feel strange
Every time that I’m away from you
No, it don’t feel right, homesick for the city lights
I feel strange, so strange
Every time that I’m away from you
When the rest of the world is sleeping
We’re up all night
