Musical Monday: Houdini

Monday, September 17, 2012




We listen to Alt Nation....a lot.....so the one song that stands out above all others this summer is Houdini by Foster the People.






"Houdini"


Rise above, gonna start the war!
What you want, what you need, what'd you come here for?
Well, an eye for an eye and an 'F' for fight
They're taking me down as the prisoners riot

Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
Fasten up, it's time to hide
Sometimes I wanna disappear

Yeah oh

When I feel kinda bad and don't want to stress
Pass it off on a better day
Well you got what you want, and what you never knew
Perfect gift from me to you

Yeah yeah yeah

Got shackles on, my words are tied
Fear can make you compromise
Fasten up, it's time to hide
Sometimes I wanna disappear

Yeah oh

(It's up to your ability)
You never knew what I could find
What would come when we realize
I don't want to compromise

(It's up to your ability)
Yeah I'm scared but I disappear
Running around before it corners you
I can't go because my life's a wreck

(It's up to your ability)
I know that you want me
'Cause it's simple to see of my ability

(It's up to your ability)
Yeah you're undecided
Yeah it's the right feeling
Yeah I don't wanna runaway

You gotta focus on your ability
Focus on your ability
Now focus on your ability
Focus on your ability

Gain again what they want to steal
Gain again what they want to steal
Then gain again what they want to steal
Gain again what they want to steal


What song did you hear most this summer? Join Miss Angie and share your music *love* :D

Until next time...

Blessings!
