Initial Song Ideas

For my music video, I want to use a song like the artists I've researched, so more indie with a female singer. I also wanted to use a song that wasn't so well know so i could do my own version of a video without people thinking of the previous artist's video. These are my initial ideas for songs.


Nico- These Days


I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to.

I've stopped my rambling,
I don't do too much gambling
These days, these days.
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'll see another highway.

I had a lover,
I don't think I'll risk another
These days, these days.
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long.
La la la la la, la la.

I've stopped my dreaming,
I won't do too much scheming
These days, these days.
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten.
Please don't confront me with my failures,
I had not forgotten them.




Vashti Bunyan- Diamond Day


Just another diamond day
Just a blade of grass
Just another bale of hay
And the horses pass.

Just another field to plough
Just a grain of wheat
Just a sack of seed to sow
And the children eat.

Just another life to live
Just a word to say
Just another love to give
And a diamond day


Emma's Imagination- Focus 


Focus on my face.
Let everything else fade away.
Slowly breathe.
There's only you and me.

And hold this moment softly in your arms.

My bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-baby.
My bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-baby.

Now I'm staring in the fire.
Flickers just like my insides.
And I know you're right behind me.
In everything I do.
So I'll hold this moment forever in my heart.

My bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-baby.
My bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-bay-baby.

And I'll hold this moment forever in my heart.
