BASTILLE: POMPEI (LIVE AT CAPITAL STUDIOS)

 
...By far my favorite live version of "Pompei" by BASTILLE. This band is so flexible with their musical arrangements that they can play the same song in several different ways. It's one of the reasons I really adore these guys as a group; they don't limit their songs to one sound. They let it change and evolve as a continuous work in progress. Keep it up, Bastille!!

TAYLOR SWIFT: ALL TOO WELL (ACOUSTIC VERSION)

I walked through the door with you, 
The air was cold
But something about it felt like home somehow
And I left my scarf there, at your sister's house
And you still got it in your drawer, even now.
Oh, your sweet disposition
And my wide-eyed gaze
We're singing in the car, getting lost upstate.
Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
And I can picture it after all these days.
And I know it's long gone and that magic's not here no more
And I might be okay, but I’m not fine at all... 

'Cause there we are again on that little town street, 
You almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over at me.
Wind in my hair, I was there
I remember it all too well.

Photo album on the counter, 
Your cheeks were turning red
You used to be a little kid with glasses
In a twin sized bed
And your mother's telling stories 'bout you on the tee ball team
You taught me 'bout your past
Thinking your future was me
And I know it's long gone and there was nothing else I could do
And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed to... 

'Cause there we are again in the middle of the night
We're dancing around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
Down the stairs, I was there
I remember it all too well

Well, maybe we got lost in translation
Maybe I asked for too much
But, maybe this thing was a masterpiece
'Till you tore it all up
Running scared, I was there
I remember it all too well
And you call me up again
Just to break me like a promise
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here
'Cause I remember it all, all, all... too well

Time won't fly, it's like I’m paralyzed by it
I'd like to be my old self again
But I’m still trying to find it
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
'Cause it reminds you of innocence
And it smells like me
You can't get rid of it
'Cause you remember it all too well

'Cause there we are again when I loved you so
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it all
Down the stairs, you were there, you remember it all It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well.
