I’m a bit of an Idol junkie, for the drama and Simon and what-not. Who knew it (actually) could be a place to discover good songs too! Kris Allen for his top seven performance performed such a delicious song that I had to research up the original. I ended up falling insanely in love with the original song. Which judging from all the YouTube comments, got majorly re-thrust into the public limelight because of Kris’ performance. Most YouTube comments are such trash, but they’re so much fun to read sometimes xD
And don’t get me wrong. I like Kris Allen – although I like Adam Lambert more xD – but I just find the original dude’s voice more soulful. Sorry Kris. Thanks for bringing such a great song to my attention though 
I’ll have to check out the movie where this song came from too – “Once.”
Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova – Falling Slowly
I don’t know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can’t react
And games that never amount
To more than they’re meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I’ll sing along
