7.12.10

...listening.

Be My Honeypie by the Weepies.

The song itself is not super amazing, it’s just nice, and quiet, and soft. It has the same kind of warmth you expect from hot chocolate. But with the video, it has the kind of warmth that makes you shiver all over. The video follows couples just being in love, but not even just being in love, but just having a good time. It’s a video that makes you want to be in love so badly it makes your heart ache. But it also makes that kind of love worth waiting for. A proverbial fuck you to the guy in the bar who uses lines like “gingers need to stick together” or “if I wasn’t married I’d totally being hitting on you right now.” Thanks but no thanks.

Dance with me darling, the night is falling
You never answer although all my life I’m calling

Be my honeypie, never say goodbye
If you don’t love me I will die
Be my honeypie

You turn me on, keep me up ‘til dawn
Come and get me, baby
Because soon I will be gone

What good are the stars above
If you’re not in love?

Let me make it right, stay with me tonight
You out to let somebody hold you tight.

...on its own nothing special, but man, that video...
