BB200 song

I took my iPod on the BB200 and used it for inspiration in the darker moments (they were plenty). It largely did the trick and helped me through to the finish. I don't have any Avicii on my iPod, but i heard "Wake me up" on the radio this morning, and the lyrics struck me as relevant (for me) to the experience of the BB200. I have noted most of them down here:

Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start

They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me

So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself
And I didn't know I was lost

I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
Hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don't have any plans

Wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life's a game made for everyone
And love is the prize (or in my case, a green badge)!

Anyone else have any musical inspiration?

Si
(Still not able to walk without limping)

We've gotta get out of this place by The Animals.......


Midnight finds me cryin'
Day time finds me cryin' too

We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do

I do remember have various songs 'on auto repeat' but I can't remember what they actually are apart from as the sun finally rose it was beautiful day by the levellers!

Don't think I've actually heard that for 20 years

This Charming Man by The Smiths starts;
'Punctured bicycle on a hillside desolate' has to be the winner. That or Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now for BB200 2014;-)
