You say
That you don't need me anymore.
Well that's just fine.
You headed for the door
And you won't hear my cryin' anymore,
My Anne Marie.

Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me.
Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me
And I don't think you're coming back this time.
Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me,
And I don't think that you can see
That I'm the man for
The rest of your life.

You know,
It sounds so hard to let you go.
Remember the time
On Christmas '99
When we had a snowball fight
And you won, my Anne Marie.

Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me.
Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me
And I don't think you're coming back this time.
Anne Marie,
You're leavin' me,
And I don't think that you can see
That I'm the man for
The rest of your life.

A dresser drawer filled with sweet love letters and a bible you gave me.
I won't show up on your doorstep on sunday morning.
When I pray, God hears Your name,
Even though things aren't the same.
And now I realize
Why my heart is breaking in two,
'Cause you're leaving one piece piece for me,
And taking the rest with you,
Anne Marie.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
