101 – The World Is Better With You
Mar 11th
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:24:59 — 155.6MB)

Annnnd… we’re back!! This is the official re-launch of Music From Between The Worlds, and we have a jammed-packed episode filled with upbeat, groovy tunes to help bring that warm Spring to your step and to your boo-tay! Because of this official re-launch, I’m counting the original 5 episodes as practice episodes, and this is officially Season 1, Episode 1 (101).
A nice surprise addition to this podcast is our first giveaway!! Anji Bee and Ryan Lum of Lovespirals generously shared an autographed disc and classic postcard to MFBTW to give away to one of you 5 wonderful listeners! LOL So if you are one of those sweet, patient, lenient, supportive listeners out there, just leave a comment and I’ll add your name to the contest! It’s going to be a simple drawing of a name, and whomever wins will have the CD, postcard, and an additional special gift from MFBTW snail-mailed directly to you! If you win, I will email you based on the email provided in the comments to get your mailing address. Drawing will be on March 17th!
By the way, this is my first podcast using my new, professional microphone, mixing board, and audio interface!! I don’t have a studio, so the sound is still quite trashy, but it is warmer than the original 5 episodes. I’ll get this figured out at some point and give you a really great show. For now, I apologize for some fumbling sounds (there’s a bad one in this episode), and bad mixing/fading at times. I’m still learning how to be a smooth host while multitasking, so forgive my bumbles. Listen closely for when I bang my own head on my microphone and try to continue as gracefully as I could. LOL
CORRECTION on the first song. It is a COVER, which I did not realize for the longest time, until I created the notes for the show! This lovely girl on YouTube with a channel called CATSWILLRULE did such a great cover of Gregory and The Hawk, I had no idea it wasn’t Meredith (the actual singer). I just thought it was a cool remix.
Enjoy the show!
SHOW NOTES
COVER of Gregory & The Hawk‘s -- Boat and Birds (remixed by drpepper21271282) performed by CATSWILLRULE
[CATSWILLRULE version (remixed) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVFy3fO03VM]
[Gregory and The Hawk (original version) (live) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIveV4VOmpw]
If you’ll be my star
I’ll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
if you’ll be my boat
I’ll be your sea
a depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity
ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze
I live to make you free
I live to make you free
but you can set sail to the west if you want to
and past the horizon till I can’t even see you
far from here where the beaches are wide
just leave me your wake to remember you by
if you’ll be my star
I’ll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
stardust to remember you by
Au Revoire Simone -- Another Likely Story (Aeroplane Mix)
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MESdwdFY4iQ]
Don’t tell me
It’s another likely story
Could’ve pinned it on you from the start
Well I’m new here
Doesn’t mean I have to answer
Silly questions or a shot in the dark
You know I’m a child
I keep this alive
It gets harder
I remember to remember
Waking up again all over again
If there’s an echo
Repeat days I’d likely let go
And be the changes we are noticing
If we’re running wild
We keep this alive
{You know I’m a child
I keep this alive}
*remix version ends here*
Still i wonder
Sights around us fade and underneath
The ground shakes, things fall apart
And no other than the voice of one another
Keeps us safely moving on in the dark
You know I’m a child
I keep this alive

I can’t stop ’cause what I got
‘Cause tonight I’m gonna keep on going (Don’t stop)
All I know is who I am
And I’ll never be afraid to show it (Don’t stop)
I won’t stop ’cause I’m on top
And you’re never gonna knock me off it
What I say and what I do
Are the same things, don’t you know it? (Don’t stop)
Oh, when your lights are low
No need to be afraid of the unknown

And I’m gonna keep the rhythm grooving (Don’t stop)
I got you set in my sight (Don’t stop)
I’m loaded, ready to fire (Don’t stop)
Wait til you’re in a safe place
And you know I won’t break your heart (Don’t stop)
Oh, when your lights are low
No need to be afraid of the unknown
I’ll be the flame, you’ll be the fuel.
If you resist my kiss and miss my lips
You know you’ve crossed the line
You play by my rules.

You have no
Control
Don’t underestimate me
Time after time
You will be the one to lose
Baby, I won’t bite
If you’re playing by my rules
Let’s go
You have no
Control
I said, oh
Wanna know
Don’t stop (you can’t stop me now)
Let’s go
I said go
Oh oh
Let’s go
You have no
Control

Dan Black -- Symphonies (feat. Kid Cudie)
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYxly14v5do]
[REMIX VERSION OF LYRICS]
Hey Mami…
Hmmmmmuaaahhhh
Yeah. ChhChhh
Mnnah nah nah
let’s go
Cudder
Hmmmmmuaaahhhh
Verse 1: (Kid Cudi)
Yeah, I’m here,
Super duper dooder-cud,
All up in the mix like yeah, What!
I stay blazed like brodies,
Even if I never said it you should prolly know this by now.
Ta-Dow, what they go and make up,
Every time I read about stupid sh*t they make up,
If I ever saw them, black dynamite ‘em,
Then they have a reason to say why they never like him.
The lights of a car go by in a stream
Seems like I stand pretty much unseen
But I open my eyes and beams come out.
Chorus:
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see
Score adds up
Angels play
Let my lonliness get blown away
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see.
Verse 2: (Dan Black)
I lie down in the dust just under your eye
A scrap of paper, thin as vapour
Filling my clothes like smoke
A couple of the wires in my heart are broke
I throw, I miss, something, nothing but
Dreams, schemes, moments wasted
Taste that tasted
Fate I’m fated
Re-edited again then copy, pasted as…
The lights of a car go by in a stream
Seems like I stand pretty much unseen
But I open my eyes and beams come out
Chorus:
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see
Score adds up
Angels play
Let my lonliness get blown away
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see.
You know.
Verse 3: (Kid Cudi)
I live, I live, I live, I live for symphonies.
I know that there’s some place just right for me.
I live, I live, I live, I live for symphonies.
Oooohh, I know that there’s some place just right for me. Yeah.
I’m in it, aint no need to seek it.
I am content,
Dream like content.
So unconscious, just me and my conscious.
I’m runnin with the mobb things,
lookin to do odd things.
Chorus:
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see
Score adds up
Angels play
Let my lonliness get blown away
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see.
Gimme, gimme, symphonies
Gimme more than the life I see.
Jonsi - Boy Lilikoi
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBgPmw3JCN4]
I want to be a lilikoi-boy-lilikoi
You grind your claws, you howl, you growl unafraid of all colour
You run, you’re free, you climb and dress trees -- You reignite
You growl, you howl, you show your teeth
You bite, it’s alright
Go, say no more, use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you’ll know who you are
Use your eyes, the world goes and flutters by
Use your eyes, you’ll know who you are
Why me, my boy, you burn so bright, do you illuminate?
One day you’re out, you give up the fight, you slow down heart-rate
We all grow old, use your life, the world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you’ll know who you are
Use your life, the world goes and flutters by
Use your life, you’ll know who you are
Electricity wires are down, rainbow colours fade into brown
I dreamt you were smiling, shifting for good
Courageous boy, now you are gone
And run past the years, no place to go
Your spirit is grand, so life goes on
You are……. (light)
You are……. (light)
I want to be a lilikoi-boy, you…
You grind your claws, you howl, you growl, unafraid of all colour
Electricity wires are down, rainbow colours fade into brown
I dreamt you were smiling, shifting for good
Courageous boy, now you are gone
You run past the years, no place to go
Your spirit is grand, so life goes on
You are……. (light)
You are……. (light)

[REMIX LYRICS]
Get down on the floor
like a snake you can slide
ever get the feeling when you’re the only one
I could love in the tribe
Get up off the floor
like a tiger you can climb
ever get the feeling when your the only one
I could love in the tribe
I can’t cool down
Get down on the floor
like a snake you can slide
ever get the feeling when you’re the only one
I could love in the tribe
Get up off the floor
like a tiger you can climb
ever get the feeling when your the only one
I could love in the tribe
I can’t cool down
The Gray Kid -- Happy Feet (feat. Chris Garneau on back vocals)
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDH8uHnsYN4]
I will show you how to burn,
run, and waste, to fill up time
It might kill me,
but all I want
is to wake with you,
and eat and sleep and dream
well, you must have happy feet
because i know you love me
it’s so sad and plain to see
but it’s true
you should be with me
oh love love love
you must have happy feet
because I know you want me
it’s so sad and plain to see
but it’s true
you will be with me (you’ll see)
I’m not lonely
I’ve got you
and you’ve got me, eternally
climb inside you
work you out
work me in
work me in
work me in
All your gifts and adorations don’t add up
to fade draws love
how you thrill me
all I want is to wake with you,
and eat, and sleep, and dream
you must have happy feet
because i know you love me
it’s so sad and plain to see
but it’s true
you should be with me
oh love love love
you must have happy feet
because I know you want me now
it’s so sad and plain to see
but it’s true
you will be with me (you’ll see)
I’ll be hanging by neck with heaven’s thread
you’ll be hanging by my side when all is said
tell me you would feel alive when you were dead
I was alive when you were dead
I’ll be hanging by neck with heaven’s thread
you’ll be hanging by my side when all is said
tell me you would feel alive when you were dead
Oh love love love
Well I don’t have happy feet
because I know you love me
it’s so sad and plain to see
but it’s true
you will be with me (you’ll see)
My Favorite -- Le Monster (Phofo Mix)
[no video]
He looks like rain.
He is not mine.
I am indoors.
I think he crashed the car.
I flew through the glass.
I guess when it rains it pours.
He looks like rain.
He is not mine.
I am indoors.
I think he crashed the car.
I flew through the glass.
I guess when it rains it pours.
The streets were crawling with vampires,
because after your shelf life expires…
You’re not a kid, you’re a monster, a monster, a monster.
Singing “la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la”
until the fin du monde.
I miss my friends and I want to go home
and I am tired of taking pills to make me feel better.
I spent five years in the infirmary
but he never sent me letters.
He only sent me dirty polaroids.
“You’re not fucked up, you’re beautiful”
is what I dreamed he said.
As I played with myself in the hospital bed.
The halls were crawling with vampires,
‘cuz after your shelf life expires…
You’re not a kid, you’re a monster, a monster, a monster.
Singing “la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la”
until the fin du monde.
I miss my friends and I want to go home
and I am tired of taking pills to make me feel better.
I spent five years in the infirmary
but he never sent me letters.
He only sent me dirty polaroids.
I need something warm.

Bitter:Sweet -- The Mating Game
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdNg3EPciXw]
Dance with me across the ocean floor
Sail away to heaven’s open door
Step right up
you’re the next contestant
In this sweet charade
Take a number, wait while I twist your fate
On the mating game
Mating game
Hold me close enough to drink my rose
The devil in my pocket turned to gold
Sorry to warn you
you’re in a daze
Tonight I’ll love you, but tomorrow go away
Step right up
who’s the next contestant
In this sweet charade?
Take a number, wait while I tease you sane
On the mating game
Mating game
Marina and the Diamonds -- I Am Not A Robot (Penguin Prison Mix)
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_oMD6-6q5Y]
You’ve been acting awful tough lately
Smoking a lot of cigarettes lately
But inside, you’re just a little baby
It’s okay to say you’ve got a weak spot
You don’t always have to be on top
Better to be hated than love, love, loved for what you’re not
You’re vulnerable, you’re vulnerable
You are not a robot
You’re loveable, so loveable
But you’re just troubled
Guess what? I’m not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I’m not a robot, a robot
You’ve been hanging with the unloved kids
Who you never really liked and you never trusted
But you are so magnetic, you pick up all the pins
Never committing to anything
You don’t pick up the phone when it ring, ring, rings
Don’t be so pathetic, just open up and sing
I’m vulnerable, I’m vulnerable
I am not a robot
You’re loveable, so loveable
But you’re just troubled
Guess what? I’m not a robot, a robot
Guess what? I’m not a robot, a robot
((Can you teach me how to feel real?))
((Can you turn my power on?))
Guess what? I am not a robot….
Guess what? I’m not a robot….a robot….
Lovespirals - Home
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1FlONLlGY8]
Traveled to the mountains
Down into the valleys
Drove from coast to coast
And when I had returned
This is what I learned
The thing I love the most
Is to be home, home, home, home
Set out in search of romance
All across this country
Ran from man to man
And when the seeds were sown
Found the truth I owned
Only thing I understand
Is my home, home, home, home
Home, home, home, home
Clean sheets they wait for me
There’s no place I’d rather be
Than home, home
Endless Blue -- Ordinary Love
[no video]
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love
Didn’t I tell you
What I believe
Somebody say that
A love like that won’t last
Didn’t I give you
All that I’ve got to give baby
I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love
I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There’s nothing like you and I baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
When you came my way
You brightened every day
With your sweet smile
Didn’t I tell you
What I believe
Did somebody say that
A love like that won’t last
Didn’t I give you
All that I’ve got to give baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There’s nothing like you and I baby
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying I’m falling
I’m falling
Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying and I’m falling
and I’m falling

Metric - Front Row (Accoustic)
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q0Y3wtxWec]
ooooh ooooh ooooh
I’m in the front row with a bottle
Don’t know what i can’t decide
I’m in the front row i’m a model
Don’t know what i can’t describe
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burn out stars they shine so bright
He’s not perfect he’s my hero
Smashing the piano
Spitting on the front row
Chronic confrontation
Psychic conversation
Radical compassion
Louder than the action
Of all of us
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All the stars
I’m in the front row with a bottle
Don’t know what I can’t decide
I’m the front row i’m a model
Don’t know what I can’t describe
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All of us
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All of us
He’s not perfect he’s a victim
Of his occupation
Social insulation
Secret intervention
Charging him with possession
I just wanna watch him
Make a break and beat them
All the stars
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All the stars
Burn out stars they shine so bright
All the stars
Burn out stars they shine so bright
Burn out stars they shine so bright
ooooh ooooh ooooh
Lightspeed Champion -- Tell Me What It’s Worth
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYKNZAN2KFE]
Crack open the good times
On a street corner bustin rhymes
but you fell between the lines.
They all laugh, become a joke
Am i crazy baby let’s all hope
for narrow halls, crunching drums
I’ve got the sweets sugar but that’s all.
Tell me what it’s worth
Tell me what it’s worth
So tell us that we’re spelling everything wrong
Negroes turn a blueish-grey when they’re dead
That’s funny ‘cos ive just turned bright red
RED RED RED
Kill, kill, kill when everything starts to suck
Drownin all your sins boy well i geuss thats bad luck
The fact that your race is full of shit
I’ve got the sweets sugar but that’s it.
Tell me what it’s worth
Tell me what it’s worth
woah woah
Clean your blades and start swinging
Don’t stop till the red runs out
Till no more joy pours out of your mouth
Tell me what it’s worth (Don’t, dont stop till the red runs out)
Tell me what it’s worth (Don’t, dont stop till the red runs out)
Tell me what it’s worth (Don’t, dont stop till the red runs out)
Tell me what it’s worth (Don’t, dont stop till the red runs out)
woah woah

Matt and Kim -- Daylight
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZt1i1ruK34]
we cut the legs off of our pants
threw our shoes into the ocean
sit back and wave through the daylight
sit back and wave through the daylight
slip and slide on subway grates
these shoes are poor mans ice skates
fall through like change in the daylight
fall through like change in the daylight
i miss yellow lines in my roads
some color on monochrome
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
these sidewalks liquid then stone
building walls and an old pay phone
it rings like all through the daylight
it rings like all through the daylight
chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home
I have five clocks in my life
and only one has the time right
i’ll just unplug it for today
ill just unplug it for today
open hydrant rolled down windows
this car might make a good old boat
and float down grand street in daylight
and float down grand street in daylight
and with just half of a sunburn
new yellow lines that i earned
step back and here comes the night time
step back and here comes the night time
chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home

Massive Attack -- Girl, I Love You (feat. Horace Andy)(She Is Danger Mix)
[no video]
Girl I love you
But your loving net’s gone forever
Gonna miss you
But my love net’s gone forever.
I say I love you
But your loving net’s gone forever
Gonna miss you
But my love net’s gone forever.
Girl I’m back in spanish town
Ain’t no trouble coming around
You promise you will never let me down
If you love me that much you will stick around.
It’s hard to tell that true love exists
But I know this one is for real.
Girl I love you
But your loving net’s gone forever.
Forever.
Natalie Walker - With You
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXx3Trg8Nfs]
We’ve come a long, long way
I must say
We’ve come a long, long way
Love takes time and time is on our side
Time is on our side
I was all alone and I didn’t have a place
You came into my life and then everything changed
Love this strong never fades
Holds onto your life doesn’t go away
We’ve come a long, long way
I must say
We’ve come a long, long way
Love takes time and time is on our side
Time is on our side
I was all alone and I didn’t have a place
You came into my life and then everything changed
Love this strong never fades
Holds onto your life doesn’t go away
With you
This world is a better place
This world is a better place with you
