What Are You Listening To Right Now? II

I think Im going to like it. It's funny that I didn't know anything about the guy or his illness when I first heard his music. I just thought "Wow! This sounRAB really nice!". Then I looked him up for some more information and learned about his life and illness and started to respect him even more.
 
unholy confessions- avenged sevenfold

"I'll try," she said as he walked away.
"Try not to lose you."
Two vibrant hearts could change.
Nothing tears the being more than deception,
unmasked fear.
"I'll be here waiting" tested but secure.

Nothing hurts my world,
just affects the ones around me
When sin's deep in my blood,
you'll be the one to fall.

"I wish I could be the one,
the one who won't care at all
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
I know it's hard to fall.
Confined in me was your heart
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."

Nothing will last in this life,
our time is spent constructing,
now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
Constrict your hanRAB around me,
squeeze till I cannot breathe,
this air tastes dead inside me,
contribute to our plague.
Break all your promises,
tear down this steadfast wall,
restraints are useless here,
tasting salvation's near.

God, I love John Cale's voice so much. I really wish he sang more for the Velvet Underground. Then again, if he did I guess it would sort of take away the unique perverseness of it.
 
Finally, another Pogues anorak :D It's off the one absolute classic you haven't got - If I Should Fall From Grace With God. That's probably my favourite, but Hell's Ditch, Rum Sodomy etc and Peace and Love run it pretty close. Besides a handful of songs, I don't have much patience for their post-MacGowan output.

On a non-Pogues-related note, here's what I'm listening to at the minute;

There's no denying it - the 80s were bloody awesome.
