Dragonette - "You're A Disaster"

I don't think there is much left to say on this one...it's kind of self explanitory.  Listen to it, though.  The song sounds like a sweet little nursery rhyme, but it's pretty sinister.
Listen here
You're a disaster
Does anything matter to you
Do you ever slow down
Touch your feet to the ground underneath
Faster and faster
Straight for disaster

You're a disaster
And it makes all the laughter look sad
So pull up your socks
Or crash into the rocks you're headed for
What are you after, if not disaster

Oh if your mind, oh if your mind
Needs so much alteration
You'd better find, you'd better find
Another medication
The one that you're usin' is bruisin' you
If you're fine, oh if you're fine
And I am just mistaken
You'll walk the line, you'll walk the line
You'll walk right off the deep end
And run into somethin' to ruin you

Yeah, the outlook is grim
And the shape that you're in is diminishing
How long can you last for, before disaster

Oh if your mind, oh if your mind
Needs so much alteration
You'd better find, you'd better find
Another medication
And if you're fine, oh if you fine
And I am just mistaken
You'll walk the line, you'll walk the line
You'll walk right off the deep end
And run into somethin' to ruin you

Oh if your mind, oh if your mind
Needs so much alteration
You'd better find, you'd better find
Another medication
And if you're fine, and if you're fine
And I am just mistaken
You'll walk the line, you'll walk the line
You'll walk right off the deep end
And run into somethin' to ruin you

Somethin' to ruin you
Somethin' to ruin you

Angus and Julia Stone

Hello again my long lost friends!  I lost my inspiration but now I'm back with a cool new duo that I can't get enough of.  Angus and Julia Stone caught my ear when their version of "You're The One That I Want" (yes, the song from Grease) was used on So You Think You Can Dance.  Julia's voice is almost like a sweet little mouse just tickling the notes like glass bottles.  The arrangement was much slower and it gave the song new life.  I no longer see Sandy and Danny in the funhouse in my head when I hear the song.  Now I see two people curled into each other in a huge bed.  And now, the ABC show, Revenge, is using "For You" as background music for the episodes and teasers.  "For You" has a much different vibe.  It's almost condiscending in a way.  "If I talk real slowly, If I try real hard, make my point dear, that you have my heart, here I go...I'll tell you what you already know".  Love it, love it, love it!  I can't believe how different songs by the same artist can make me feel so many different emotions.  MORE TO COME, I PROMISE!  "For You"   "You're The One That I Want"
