There are a few songs that I've always thought would be perfect for an L&C video... but I have exactly zero skills or equipment for making one myself... so it finally occurred to me I could put the suggestion out there and hope that some kind soul would take me up on it smile notworthy

The first one I thought of was "Alone" by Heart (as in, how do I get you alone) -- I thought it suited WWW very well.

The second is "Head over Feet" by Alannis Morrissette. Those lyrics are pure Lois, talking about Clark.

"Head Over Feet"

I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it

You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was

Chorus:
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service

Chorus:
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience

--music bridge--

You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took me so long

I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now

(Repeat chorus)


I've got that one as an mp3 file, but I don't have the first one. Well, except for on cassette, but I don't think that counts <g> I'm sure more web-music-savvy people than me could find it, though.

So, anyway... there's the ideas. Here's hoping they stir someone's video muse smile

"You told me you weren't like other men," she said, shaking her head at him when the storm of laughter had passed.
He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement."
"You can say that again," she told him.
"I have a...."
"Oh, shut up."

Pam,

I saw the title of this thread, and I thought to myself, "you know, I also have a song that for the longest time I have wanted to see made into an L&C music video. I think I'll log on and add my request to Pam's."

You'll never guess what the song was that I was going to request... "Head over Feet" by Alannis Morrissette!

lol, thanks for chiming in, guys! After I posted the original request I felt pretty dorky about it <g> Nice to know I'm not completely insane. Or at least, that I'm not alone in my delusions wink

I have another request. smile

Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

Hi Pam,

I was working on this for you and almost done and my system did a major crash. I have all my files, no harm done EXCEPT none of the programs work and that is a lot of reinstalling mad

Be patient thumbsup

Oh no! frown eek

Computers are great . . . except when they're NOT!

Good luck with the reinstall, Trenna.

I was listening to some old CDs the other day and it struck me all over again how much the lyrics of Robbie Robertson's Broken Arrow remind me of Clark and Lois.

Well...some of them do. <g> I realise you'd have to get pretty creative on the chorus to make it fit goofy , (although I tend to always think of that 'snow from the Andes' scene at that point <g>) but the rest of it and the way that Robbie sings it with that throaty voice of his makes me shiver every time I hear it. laugh

Broken Arrow

Who else is gonna bring you
A broken arrow
Who else is gonna bring you
A bottle of rain
There he goes, moving across the water
There he goes turning my whole world around

Do you feel what I feel?
Can we make that so it's part of the deal?
I'm gonna hold you in these arms of steel
Lay your heart on the line ... this time

I wanna breathe when you breathe
When you whisper like that hotsummer breeze
Count the beads of sweat that cover me
Didn't you show me a sign...this time?

Who else is gonna bring you
A broken arrow
Who else is gonna bring you
A bottle of rain
There he goes, moving across the water
There he goes turning my wholeworld around

Can you see what I see?
Can you cut behind the mystery?
I will meet you by the witness tree
Leave the whole world behind

I want to come when you call
And I'll get to you if I have to crawl
They can't hold me with these iron walls
We've got mountains to climb

Who else is gonna bring you
A broken arrow
Who else is gonna bring you
A bottle of rain
There he goes, moving across the water
There he goes turning my whole world around

I love that song, Labby! I never thought of it in terms of L&C before, but it really fits quite well. laugh

i'm not one for listening to pop music anymore (it is so over) but I've always loved *NSYNC's 'God Must Have Spent (a Little More Time on You)' the lyrics are so sweet I reckon they totally describe the way Clark feels about Lois.
