Covers Friday - Circle of Life Edition

jeeesh... all sorts of server issues today. for todays covers post... oh its the classic story of love betrayal and loss... Boy meets girl, boy and girl get married, then comes kids, and then come infidelity. And then the girl gets even. Like Sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives....

He walks into the room. It's filled with Beautiful Girls. He was always wary of beautiful girls since his last relationship. he was damn near suicidal when she said it was over.



Listen: Deer Tick, "Beautiful Girls"




Deer Tick - Beautiful Girls (Sean Kingston)


She saw him as soon as he walked in the door.. he had a certain air about him. A certain savour fare. She knew the nervous walking. She thought to yourself... Here comes your man.



Listen: Meaghan Smith, "Here Comes Your Man"




Meaghan Smith - Here Comes your Man (Pixies)




She made eye contact and went in for the kill. it wasn't long before he was buying her drinks and suggesting they get out of the club and head back to his place but they wouldn't even make it back there before it started. The dark of the alley, the head while he's driving, hot as a fever, rattling bones, the SEX was on Fire!



Listen: Alesha Dixon, "Sex on Fire"




Alesha Dixon - Sex on Fire (Kings o f Leon)



That Night they met he knew he needed her so. It was like since the day saw her he had been waiting for her... It wasn't long after that he asked her to be his baby.



Listen: DM Stith, "Be My Baby"




DM Stith - Be My Baby (Ronettes)



Years past. Things were going great. A baby is born crying out for attention. They liked to watch him laughing picking insects off plants with no time to think of the consequence. Ahhh... Kids.



Listen: Ben Lee, "Kids"




Ben Lee - Kids. (MGMT)



Then a new woman came along. He knew his woman's love would never die. but he also knew that that would change if she ever found out about him and her. He told his mistress "I know her love is true, but its so damn easy making love to you... I'm gonna Run to you"



Listen: Malcolm Middle and the Hold Steady, "Run to you"




Malcolm Middle and the Hold Steady - Run To You (Bryan Adams)



And find out his woman did. Heartbroken, she attacked the situation the only way she knew how. See she was from Lousiana, and she practiced Voodoo all her life, and there was no way her man would get away with this. She put a spell on him.



Listen: She And Him, "I Put a Spell On You"




She & Him - I put a spell on you (Screaming Jay Hawkins)



The spell made it look like an accident... There he and his mistress were, in the same dark alley where he'd met his wife so many years before. Tonight would be different. A Mugger would catch them in the throes of passion and demand their cash... when he tried to fight back the mugger thrush the knife into his belly repeatedly splattering blood into the air like crimson tears. it was raining blood.


Tori Amos, "Raining Blood"




Tori Amos - Raining Blood (Slayer)



In the distance you could hear the voodoo queen laugh with approval. Now she would prepare for the funeral
