Random Question

14 08 2009

I recently posted the lyrics to Taylor Swift’s You Belong to Me, saying they fit perfectly for Joey and Dawson from Dawson’s Creek.

Now, after watching this video for The O.C.’s Marissa and Ryan, I’ve come up with a task for all of you.

What would or should be the theme song for each of our teen drama couples?

Is there a song that fits overall or works for a particular storyline?

Feel free to post links to videos or lyrics.  For inspiration, check out the videos I used in my Essential Teen Drama Love Triangles posts and Favorite Couples posts.





Random Thought

1 07 2009

I was in the car yesterday and Taylor Swift’s “You Belong to Me” came on the radio.

Listening to the lyrics, I realized it describes the Joey-Dawson-Jen love triangle (Dawson’s Creek) almost perfectly.

Here are the lyrics:

You’re on the phone with your girlfriend, She’s upset
She’s going off about something that you said
She doesnt get your humour like I do

I’m in the room, its a typical Tuesday night
I’m listening to the kind of music she doesnt like
And she’ll never know your story like I do

But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts
She’s cheer captain and I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you’ll wake up and find
That what you’re lookin for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can’t you see?
You belong with me
You belong with me

Walkin the streets with you in your worn out jeans
I cant help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on the park bench thinkin to myself
Hey isnt this easy?

And you’ve got a smile that could light up this whole town
I havent seen it in awhile, since she brought you down
You say you find I know you better than that
Hey, Whatcha doing with a girl like that?

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She’s cheer captain and I’m on the bleachers
Dreaming bout the day when you’ll wake up and find
That what you’re looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I’m the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can’t you see?
You belong with me

Standin by, waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that?
You belong with me
You belong with me

Oh I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I’m the one who makes you laugh when you know you’re about to cry
I know your favorite songs and you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong. I think I know it’s with me.

Can’t you see that I’m the one who understand you?
Been here all along so why can’t you see?
You belong with me

Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me

Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me

Are there any other songs you think fit for our teen dramas?
