Comment:
* "What Sarah Said" edited to fade out after the line "Love is watching someone die"^ "Rocky Raccoon" edited to fade out after last line
** Both songs edited to crossfade from "The Last Song..." to "You're So Last Summer"
^^ "Mr. Tambourine Man" edited to fade from last harmonica solo into the last part of "What Sarah Said" starting at the line "Love is watching someone die"
Actually I thought of the name first and thought it was such a cool name I had to use it.
I wanted it to follow the emotional flow drinking alone to drown your sorrows after a break-up, going from sad realization that it's over, to depressed loneliness and longing, to anger, to faking "I'm over you" and finally a kind of somber acceptance.
Bekayem would like to remind you to drink responsibly.
This mix can be summarized as follows:
I am not drinking alone, I have these words for company.
I was thinking of what Sarah Said, that love is watching someone die...
You can think of me when you forget your seatbelt...
I may have lost my best friend...
I know there's nothing stopping you now, but I'd settle for a slowdown...
He went to see her but her eyes were burning a different stare...
And now you're pissed at you know who and I guess I deserve it...
Bye bye love, bye bye happiness, hello loneliness...
I'll be just fine, pretending I'm not...
They never seemed to meet, this structure fell about our feet...
Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room, only to find Gideon's Bible...
Do you wanna leave? Do you wanna leave or something...
Don't bother angel, I know exactly what goes on...
I don't care who you've been kissing on these days...
Why do I never seem to learn that love is wrong and girls are fucking evil...
Maybe I should hate you for this. Never really did ever quite get that far...
No one is my equal because I'm the kind of rain...
Let you fall for every empty word I say...
When you're left with only a bullet, I'll bring a trigger and a promise to pull it...
Hey Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me. I'm not sleepy and there is no place I am going to...
Love is watching someone die. So who's gonna watch you die?
