Could you be perhaps a little more specific?

Jack Johnson?
James Morrison? (does he have a guitar?)

MegaLegs · 24/08/2006 17:03

"You give me something that makes me scared alright..." is that the one. james Morrison or someone I think. those lyrics are probably wrong by the way!!

emsiewill · 24/08/2006 17:04

That's James Morrison, Megalegs

There was a thread with a link to a site where you could tap a tune the other day. I'll search.

JACK JOHNSON BETTER TOGETHER Cheers emsiewill - thanks everyone!

Even the lyrics have mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Verse 1:]
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, its always better when we're together

[Chorus:]
MMM, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

[Verse 2:]
And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone,
When the morning light sings
And brings new things,
But tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too,
Too many things I have to do,
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'll be under the impression,
I was somewhere in-between
With only two,
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do,
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Yeah, it's always better when we're together
MMM, We're somewhere in-between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing,
We're better together

Aaah Jack Johnson - love that Album- In Between Dreams. we had it on in the car a lot on the IoW a few weeks ago.

Sparkler1 · 24/08/2006 17:13

Love the songtapper link - shall give that a go next time.

emsiewill · 24/08/2006 17:14

Wow, that tapper thing is clever, isn't it. I did the James Morrison song, and it got it (gave me about 10 different songs, but that was one of them.)

emsiewill · 24/08/2006 17:16

It doesn't know many Marillion songs, though.
