So these are five songs about Beth. Pretty self explanatory. This might be kind of lame, but I think that's okay.
1. From Me to You- The Beatles
I know Beth put this on her list and talked about how this was her and I's song, but it's just such a happy memory- we both danced around our kitchen, waving around spatulas and wisks and kitchen utensils, and played this song.
2. Albatross- Judy Collins
This is one of the most beautiful songs of all time ever. It reminds me of someone dancing or wandering around in a field barefoot.
3. Wake Up- Arcade Fire
I mentioned this song once, and Beth told me she loved it but it made her sad and she always skipped over it. I realized I did the exact same thing.
4. Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover- Paul Simon
Once when we were ten-ish we were stuck in a car in a parking lot with my brother, and we played this song over and over and over again until we'd learned all the words. Neither of them remember this, but it definitely happened.
5. While You Were Sleeping- Elvis Perkins
This is a thinking song, and there's a line in it that I always repeat to her when I hear it.
I think every single song probably reminds me of Beth somehow. But these are just five.
