So admire this guy. First a professional surfer, then successful recording artist. Always having been able to make a more-than-decent living on fun-to-do stuff he enjoys. If there is such a thing as "chosen people", he is truly one of them.
Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing You believed in superstitions Then maybe you'd see the signs Lord knows that this world is cruel And I ain't the Lord no I'm just a fool And a loving somebody don't make them love you Must I always be waiting, waiting on you? Must I always be playing, playing your fool? I sang your songs, I danced your dance I gave your friends all a chance Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you Aw, maybe you've been through this before But it's my first time so please ignore The next few lines 'cause they're directed at you I can't always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool I keep playing your part But it's not my scene Want this plot to twist I've had enough mystery Keep building it up But then you're shooting me down But I'm already down Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting Well if I was in your position I'd put down all my ammunition I'd wonder why it had taken me so long But Lord knows that I'm not you And if I was I wouldn't be so cruel Because waiting on love ain't so easy to do Must I always be waiting, waiting on you? Must I always be playing, playing your fool? No I can't always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool, fool
Two of my favourite artists. I've never seen Jack Johnson, but I was lucky enough to see Ben Harper live this summer. Awesome, this is the music you need for just being chilled.
I think the reason Jack Johnson's songs are so godamn good is because he doesn't make them for money, he just does it cause he wants to. Although I'm sure he likes the money he makes from it too.
