Don't You Forget Parts 1 & 2 - Micah P. Hinson

Here by request - a notable feature of the Saturday's Song blog (one that more of you should be enjoying) as well as dedications which have also been made...the deal is that whatever I get as a request/dedication goes up in addition to the pick of the week (see Fatalist Palmistry post for today). So keep 'em coming kids. 

This one comes all the way from Japan (far from home for sure). Carol and I have some fav's in common including Sea Foam by Land of Talk (which incidently might make it on here someday soon). In my last message to her I alerted her to their cover of Wintersleep's Weighty Ghost which is pretty sweet. She has returned the favor with this one. 

In her words: 

"I am a huge fan of the crescendo song. 

Land of Talk Sea Foam is a standout....many Loney Dear songs....

and.....

Micah P Hinson (he actually has a bunch) - Don't You Forget About Me (Parts One and Two) is the best though. I save it for the dingy elevator that takes me to my dingy office. I go in raring. 

I especially like the brief pause before the buildup begins.

And who doesn't want someone not to forget about them...especially when you are far from home. Memories tie us to people...and our own histories."

There are things
That I say
That don't mean a thing anyway

There are things
That I say
That don't mean a thing anyway
They don't mean a thing anyway

And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
forget about me

And there are things
That I do
That don't mean a thing anyway

There are things
That I do
That don't mean a thing anyway
They don't mean a thing anyway

And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
And don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
forget about me

Don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
Don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
Don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
Don't you
don't you forget about me
forget about me
