What song most relates to your current TTC mood?

What song most relates to your current TTC mood?

There's a song by Jack Johnson that I'm sure has nothing to do with TTC - but it gives me pangs in my heart whenever I hear it.

-----

All at once
The world can overwhelm me
There’s almost nothing that you could tell me
That could ease my mind

Which way will you run?
When it’s always all around you
And the feeling lost and found you again
A feeling that we have no control

Around the sun
Some say it’s going to be the new hell
Some say it’s still too early to tell
Some say it really ain’t no myth at all

We keep asking ourselves
Are we really strong enough?
There’re so many things
That we got too proud of

I want to take the preconceived
Out from underneath your feet
We could shake it off
And instead we’ll plant some seeds
We’ll watch them as they grow
And with each new beat
From your heart the roots grow deeper
The branches, well they reach for what?

Nobody really knows
But underneath it all
There’s this heart all alone
What about when it’s gone?
It really won’t be so long
Sometimes it feels like a heart
Is no place to be singing from at all

There’s a world we’ve never seen
There’s still hope between the dreams
The weight of it all could blow away with a breeze
But if you’re waiting on the wind
Don’t forget to breathe
Because as the darkness gets deeper
We’re sinking so we reach for love

At least something we can hold
But I’ll reach to you
From where time just can’t go
What about when it’s gone?
It really won’t be so long
Sometimes it feels like a heart
Is no place to be singing from at all

Re: What song most relates to your current TTC mood?

Jack Johnson pretty much writes the words that my heart and soul cannot express... the best so far: "Better Together"

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
--> I think that says it best...


Sorry if I'm such a cheeseball...

I love Jack Johnson Chat Icon

I heard this quote, and that's how I feel about him:

All of my favorite singers have stolen all of my best lines.

His words touch my SOUL - I swear. I connect with his music like nothing else!

I think because he's married too... he writes more about love and relationships and HAPPY songs.

ITA! There need to be more singer/songwriters like him...

One of my favorites is "Bubble Toes"... so many memories to that song. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: What song most relates to your current TTC mood?

Waiting for My Real Life to Begin by Colin Hay!

Any minute now my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
And I'll stand on the bow
And feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down, down, down on me

And you said,"Be still, my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in"
Don't you understand?
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

When I awoke today suddenly nothing happened
But in my dreams I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path
And up this cobbled lane
I'm walking in my own footsteps once again

And you say,"Just be here now
Forget about the past
Your mask is wearing thin"
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

Any minute now my ship is coming in
I'll keep checking the horizon
And I'll check my machine
There's sure to be that call
It's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
It's just that times are lean

And you say,"Be still, my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in"
Don't you understand?
I already have a plan
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

On a clear day
I can see, see for a long way

On a clear day
I can see, see a very long way

Robbie Rivera- Back to Zero

This is *today's* song. DH was pretty upset when I got AF the other day. He related this song to it..


Love, Just hold me
One more time, then i let it go
the need to know, what was real
everything i asked for is given back

i do not want to pretend that i have waited in vain
and as the sun turns away i feel the pain of the stains

i am down back to zero
never thought id need this place, again
the tracks along my dreams
lead me back to the beginning
back down, to zero

no guarantees, or commitments
never promised what we could not keep
visions clash, seperate us
pictures changing make things fall apart

i do not want to pretend that i have waited in vain
and as the sun turns away i feel the pain of the stains

i am down back to zero
down back to zero
down back to zero
back down to zero

i am down back to zero
never thought id need this place, again
the tracks along my dreams
lead me back to the beginning
back down, to zero

and dont you think its the strangest thing
i know i should've known better
then to find myself in such a lonely place
and everything i fear
takes me back to the beginning
but it never felt so empty back to one

i am down back to zero
never thought id need this place again
the tracks along my dreams
lead me back to the beginnïng
back down, to zero


Back to Zero

geez.... a negative pregnancy test + that song ... you shouldn't be allowed near sharp objects for the rest of the day.

the lyrics definately fits very well. eerily well.

Re: What song most relates to your current TTC mood?

ok the first song that popped in my head w/ this question was "Waiting for Tonight" - Jennifer Lopez......as much as I dislike JLo, this song could work if I didn't have AF!

ETA: I was just thinking about this and you could actually change the words to "waiting to ovulate" which would be exactly how I feel right now Chat Icon

yea, its kinda negative. However, its true. You always start back at zero- the song is really upbeat, so I'm never depressed listening to it. My DH related it to TTC...For me, this song was the song of my summer after the closing of our house fell through (which we later closed on the following week).. so to me, the song has a happy ending Chat Icon and I always relate it to starting over to get where you want to be, KWIM?

I don't have a song.

I always say regarding TTC :

You know what the definition of insanity is ? Repeating the same action and expecting a different outcome.


Most people don't find it funny, but my DH and I do.
