    Regina Spektor - School Is Out

    School is out
    And I walk the empty hallways
    I walk alone
    Alone as always
    There's so many lucky pennies
    Lying on the floor
    But where the hell are all the lucky people
    I can't see them any more
    And there's such a nasty smell
    In the bathroom
    The people float by
    While the toilets are flushing
    And there's all this shit written on the bathroom wall
    With a leaky pen

  2. Hey! It's Fortnight Friday Music and the cue is: #forsaken

    Gonna start with Allen Ginsberg and Kronos Quartet Howl I, in the last stanzas of which we get:

    and rose reincarnate in the ghostly clothes of jazz in the goldhorn shadow of the band and blew the suffering of America’s naked mind for love into an eli eli lamma lamma sabacthani saxophone cry that shivered the cities down to the last radio

    Father Father Why Why hast thou forsaken me.

    Eric Carmen - All by Myself

    "When I was young
    I never needed anyone
    And making love was just for fun
    Those days are gone

    Living alone
    I think of all the friends I've known
    But when I dial the telephone
    Nobody's home

    All by myself
    Don't want to be all by myself anymore
    All by myself
    Don't want to live all by myself anymore"

    Bill Withers - Ain't No Sunshine

    " Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
    It's not warm when she's away
    Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
    And she's always gone too long
    Anytime she goes away!"

    KT Tunstall - Black Horse & The Cherry Tree

    And my heart hit a problem in the early hours
    So I stopped it dead for a beat or two
    But I cut some cord and I shouldn't have done it
    And it won't forgive me after all these years
    So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
    With a big black horse and a cherry tree
    Now it won't come back '

    I can't quite get there
    'Cause my heart forsaken me, yeah, yeah, yeah

  6. This #AlternateFridayMusic is
    #Forsaken . This whole album meets the criteria of forsaken, but let's pick one song out of it. How about Baby Don't Sleep. clppng.bandcamp.com/track/baby

    Billy Joel - And So It Goes

    "But if my silence made you leave
    Then that would be my worst mistake
    So I will share this room with you
    And you can have this heart to break"

    Miley Cyrus covering Dylan - You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go

    "I've seen love go by my door
    It's never been this close before
    Never been so easy or so slow
    I've been shooting in the dark too long
    When something not right it's wrong
    Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go"

  9. This song popped into my mind when I saw the prompt, but who exactly is forsaken in this sad tale? I kind of think that in true Nick Cave story-song fashion, everyone is.

    The Carny - Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds

    The prompt is #Forsaken

    Mr. Airplane Man, “You Left Me Cold” from their eponymous debut album (1998)

    I remember strolling through #HarvardSquare one time and hearing a swath of over-amped, noise-shrouded wailing coming from around the corner. Drawn towards the sound, I found just two women, one strategically bashing around on some drums - I can’t recall if she had a full drum kit but my gut says no - and the other playing electric guitar and singing through a deliberately distorting amp. Bad audio never sounded so good, as these two white girls carving into existence this stark #blues.

    They were selling copies of their debut album on CD out of a guitar case. HELLS YEAH I grabbed one.
