#13 Edie Brickell & New Bohemians - What I Am

Album: Shooting Rubberbands At The Stars (1988)

Lyrics excerpt:
And being alone is the best way to be
When I'm by myself it's the best way to be
When I'm all alone it's the best way to be
When I'm by myself, nobody else can say goodbye


Everything is temporary anyway
When the streets are wet, the colors slip into the sky
But I don't know why that means you and I are, that means you and I


I quit, I give up, nothing's good enough for anybody else, it seems...

Reasons to love this song:
I love everything about the album Shooting Rubberbands At The Stars - the hit single What I Am, Little Miss S with its sad lyrics and happy tune, Edie Brickell's cover art -- an orange cat and an orange sun drawn in a childlike way... Circle is the song I could most easily identify with. That's hardly surprising -- I'm sure everyone in the world has had this feeling of sadness and defeat some time or other.
