#FridayTune Just Breathe is an acoustic piece from Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam, which was released as a single in 2009. While a bit of a sleeper hit for the band, it eventually went platinum in the U.S. Per Vedder, it was his being aware of his own mortality, and realizing how fleeting time is, that inspired him to write the song Yes, I understand That every life must end As we sit alone I know someday we must go Oh, I'm a lucky man To count on both hands The ones I love Some folks just have one Yeah, others they got none Stay with me Let's just breathe Practiced all my sins Never gonna let me win Under everything Just another human being Yeah, I don't want to hurt There's so much in this world To make me bleed Stay with me You're all I see Did I say that I need you? Did I say that I want you? Oh, if I didn't, I'm a fool, you see No one knows this more than me As I come clean I wonder every day As I look upon your face Everything you gave And nothing you would take Nothing you would take Everything you gave Did I say that I need you? Oh, did I say that I want you? Oh, if I didn't, I'm a fool you see No one knows this more than me As I come clean Nothing you would take Everything you gave Hold me 'til I die Meet you on the other side Artist: Pearl Jam Songwriter: Eddie Vedde Released: September 21, 2009

FridayTune# The Song "Don't Know Why" by Norah Jones launched her career in 2002 and became her most successful, earning 3 Grammy awards. I waited 'til I saw the sun I don't know why I didn't come I left you by the house of fun Don't know why I didn't come Don't know why I didn't come When I saw the break of day I wished that I could fly away Instead of kneeling in the sand Catching tear-drops in my hand My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind forever Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy But I'll be a bag of bones Driving down the road alone My heart is drenched in wine But you'll be on my mind forever Something has to make you run I don't know why I didn't come I feel as empty as a drum I don't know why I didn't come Don't know why I didn't come I don't know why I didn't come Artist: Norah Jones Songwriter: Jesse Harris Released: January 28, 2002 Album: Come Away With ME

#FridayTunes "You Might Think" by the Cars won the first-ever Video of the Year award at MTV's Video Music Awards in 1984. The video was considered very advanced for the time and was one of the first to use computerized effects. Oh well uh, you might think I'm crazy To hang around with you Or maybe you think I'm lucky To have somethin' to do But I think that you're wild Inside me is some child You might think I'm foolish Or maybe it's untrue (You might think) You might think I'm crazy (All I want) All I want is you You might think it's hysterical But I know when you're weak You think you're in the movies And everything's so deep But I think that you're wild When you flash that fragile smile You might think it's foolish What you put me through (You might think) You might think I'm crazy (All I want) All I want is you And it was hard, so hard to take (So hard to take) There's no escape (There's no escape) Without a scrape (Without a scrape) But you kept it going, till the sun fell down You kept it, going Oh well uh, you might think I'm delirious The way I run you down But somewhere, sometimes When you're curious I'll be back around Oh, I think that you're wild And so uniquely styled You might think it's foolish This chancy rendezvous (You might think I'm crazy) You might think I'm crazy (All I want is you) All I want is you, ah-oo All I want is you (All I want is you) All I want is you Artist: The Cars Songwriter: Ric Ocasek Released: February 1984 Album Heartbeat City
