Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

When I was making a wedding mix for a green-eyed friend, her favorite was the hidden track (it's the last two minutes of the song "simonize") from Pete Yorn's first album Music for the Morning After.

The first line is "Someday I'll look into her green eyes..."

It was the only green-eye song I could find at the time.

Husker Du have a pretty song called "Green Eyes":

It's a great big world
There's a million other guys
I feel so lucky when I look
In those green eyes

Ann, that's a ferret.

A coworker commented that she doesn't like that song, as there aren't any songs about girls with green eyes.

Ultrabeat, "Pretty Green Eyes"
Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, "Green Eyes"
Sugarloaf, "Green-Eyed Lady"

Not sure if the first two would be available on iTunes, so thought I'd toss them out.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

"Devil with the Green Eyes" - Matthew Sweet

This is a great song, IMO.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Both Nick Cave and Erykah Badu have songs titled "Green Eyes".

Woe to the fucking wicked.

The Nick Cave is rather...not appropriate for the audience.

Random music thing: I drove two members of Luna around last night. They were in town for the Maryland Film Festival with the documentary about their band, Tell Me Do You Miss Me. I didn't see the movie unfortunately. I was volunteering as a van driver and drove them from their hotel back to the theater. They were very polite.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Which two?

What Corwood said. Dean's an old friend, though we haven't spoken in years.

Which two?

It was the two who are not Dean & Britta. I don't really know them that well. I didn't actually know it was them until they got out of the van and my friend who works for the festival told me.
