Rock upon a porch with you by The Boy Least Likely to

My twee phase is over, but it started with this song. And when I still listen to it nowadays, I still have the same smile I had on the first time I gave this song a listen. Nowadays, I look at life (and especially at elderly life) differently, but it is still a comforting idea that you can sing:

Some day when i’m older

I’ll rock upon a porch with you

rock upon a porch with you

remember all the possibles and the books we used to read

because somehow after everything

and everyone that we’ve been throught

I’m kinda looking forward to

rocking back and forth with you

on the front steps of our sweet retirement home

It’s such a lively, happy, twee song, that gets me always singing along to it with a stupid smile on my face.

Kindling by Architecture in Helsinki

Because, for a year and a half of my life, I woke up to this song. It was also my ringtone during that time. The reason why? it was the only song I liked and weighted less than 2 MB, since my mobile phone/wake-up radio/calculator/rough camera/thing-to-play-while-waiting-or-talking-nervously had only 10MB of memory (and did not accept cards of memory expansion). Thankfully that time is over and now I wake up everyday of the week with a different song. But that mobile phone still works and still has my heart. 

Anyway, back to the song, it is always good to practice your diction, singing lines like:

should I choose to stay here, all depends

on buildings, buses, streets, trees, rain and friends
