mondayz tunez #20 :: one of the many songs we both like

How about a delayed addition to my series of Mondayz Tunez? Yes, I thought you’d want to hear another one. For this week (and next week) I didn’t just choose a song I like. I chose a song WE like. By we, I mean my best friend and I as she is visiting me in Brighton and will be staying over this and the next week.

This week we chose one song we both like and which she originally sent me a few months ago. It has no story behind it and it does not remind us of something in specific. It is simply a song which we both loved from the first time we heard it.

I give you Your Ghost from Kristen Hersh and Michael Stipe (Yes, the guy from R.E.M.):

Video and Lyrics after the bumpâ€¦

Lyrics for Kristen Hersh’s and Michael Stipe’s Your Ghost:
If I walk down this hallway, tonight,
It’s too quiet,
So I Pad through the dark
And call you on the phone
Push your old numbers
And let your house ring
Til I wake you ghost.

Let him walk down your hallway
It’s not this quiet
Slide down your receiver
Sprint across the wire
Follow my number
Slide into my hand.

It’s the blaze across my nightgown
It’s the phone’s ring.

I think last night
You were driving circles around me.

I can’t drink this coffee
Til I put you in my closet
Let him shoot me down
Let him call me off
I take it from his whisper
You’re not that tough.
