Bravo needs some help making a mixtape for Jessica Biel to express how heartbroken he is.

Anyone have suggestions for good songs? Remember, the point of the tape is to make Jessica cry with angst from her spurning of Bravo's passion.

I suggest Barbra Streisand and Neil Diamond, You Don't Bring Me Flowers:

You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore
When you come through the door
At the end of the day

I remember when
You couldn't wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me
Now after lovin' me late at night
When it's good for you
And you're feeling alright
Well you just roll over
And you turn out the light
And you don't bring me flowers anymore

It used to be so natural
To talk about forever
But 'used to be's' don't count anymore
They just lay on the floor
'Til we sweep them away

And baby, I remember
All the things you taught me
I learned how to laugh
And I learned how to cry
Well I learned how to love
Even learned how to lie
You'd think I could learn
How to tell you goodbye
'Cause you don't bring me flowers anymore...

*sniff*

Comfort Me (Tim McGraw)

Wake me my lady
Don't let me sleep
Open my eyes
To the wonders you keep
Let me look at you
See how you shine
I'll fall in love
Like I've done every time

Lay me in soft green grass
Down where the river runs
Under the mountain caps
Gold with the setting sun
Walk me along the bay
Beyond the verdant trees
Carry me with your grace
Forever comfort me

You walk on water
Searching the East
The souls of the masses
Pass at your feet
Looking up at you
Tears in their eyes
Fathers of fathers of fathers
Gone by

Walk me down old main streets
Ride me down rusty rails
Fields full of summer wheat
Peppered with rounded bales
Steeples where church bells ring
Lighthouses by the sea
Reach out through gathered storms
Faithfully comfort me

I am your tired
I am your poor in spirit
Yearning to breathe
Breathe, free
Breathe, free

Lay me in soft green grass
Down where the river runs
Under the mountain caps
Gold with the setting sun
Walk me along the bay
Beyond the verdant trees
Carry me with your grace
Forever comfort me

Walk me down old main streets
Ride me down rusty rails
Fields full of summer wheat
Peppered with rounded bales
Steeples where church bells ring
Lighthouses by the sea
Reach out through gathered storms
Faithfully comfort me

An angels smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passions a prison, you can't break free

You're a loaded gun
There's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

Chorus:
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name

Paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A school boys dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye

You're a loaded gun
There's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done

Chorus:
Shot through the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name

And one of the greatest love songs ever written that many don't know about ....

"Rainy Night in Soho"
The Pogues

Enjoy....

http://youtube.com/watch?v=GV0ZNxKuJsM

I've been loving you a long time
Down all the years, down all the days
And I've cried for all your troubles
Smiled at your funny little ways
We watched our friends grow up together
And we saw them as they fell
Some of them fell into Heaven
Some of them fell into Hell

I took shelter from a shower
And I stepped into your arms
On a rainy night in Soho
The wind was whistling all its charms
I sang you all my sorrows
You told me all your joys
Whatever happened to that old song
To all those little girls and boys

Sometimes I wake up in the morning
The gingerlady by my bed
Covered in a cloak of silence
I hear you in my head
I'm not singing for the future
I'm not dreaming of the past
I'm not talking of the fist time
I never think about the last

Now the song is nearly over
We may never find out what it means
Still there's a light I hold before me
You're the measure of my dreams
The measure of my dreams

im thinking this one:

INXS: Beautiful Girl

Nickys in the corner
With a black coat on
Running from a bad home
With some cat inside
Now where did you find her
Among the neon lights
That haunt the streets outside
Stay with me

Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
She wants to go home

From door way to door way
Street corner to corner
With neon ghosts in the city
And she sings

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

Shes so scared
So very frightened
Anything could happen
Right here tonight

Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
She wants to go home

Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
Beautiful girl
(stay with me)
Beautiful girl
(stay with me)

bon jovi: Always


This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

The tape wouldn't be complete without this classic:


I Touch Myself
by Belinda Carlisle

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I feel down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

I don't want, anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Ohhh, I dont want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

You're the one who makes me come running
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I wanna make you mine

I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
Have a look and see
Just how much I adore you
I'd get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you

I don't want, anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
Ohhh, I dont want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

(repeat ad nauseum)

Based on those choices, it's clear you'll never get her back.

Oh well.

Going Under

Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50 thousand tears I've cried
Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom
I'm dying again

I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
I'm going under

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
I'm dying again

I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through

So go on and scream
Scream at me I'm so far away
I won't be broken again
I've got to breathe - I can't keep going under

And for the record Jessica Biel was ranked #1 by Thrilly Top Prospects LTD back in 1997 and she has fulfilled her promise and potential.

I must admit, I have a love/hate thing going on for Jessica.
Thanks to her, I actually watched a few episodes of Seventh Heaven from start to finish.
Some things are not easy to forgive.

I used to watch it all the time. It's one of the most unintentionally funny shows in the history of television.

Me So Horney


Sittin' at home with my **** on hard
So I got the black book for a freak to call
Picked up the telephone, then dialed the 7 digits
Said, Yo, this Marquis, baby! Are you down with it?
I arrived at her house, knocked on the door
Not having no idea of what the night had in store
I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning
I have an appetite for sex, 'cause me so horny

[Ahh! Me so horny!]
[Me love you long time!]

Girls always ask me why I **** so much
I say What's wrong, baby doll, with a quick nut?
'Cause you're the one, and you shouldn't be mad
I won't tell your mama if you don't tell your dad
I know he'll be disgusted when he sees your ***** busted
Won't your mama be so mad if she knew I got that ***?
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning
My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny

[Ahh! Me so horny!]
[Me love you long time!]

You can say I'm desperate, even call me perverted
But you say I'm a dog when I leave you ****ed and deserted
I'll play with your heart just like it's a game
I'll be blowing your mind while you're blowing my brains
I'm just like that man they call Georgie Puddin' Pie
I fuck all the girls and I make 'em cry
I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning
I have an appetite for sex, 'cause me so horny.

[Ahh! Me so horny!]
[Me love you long time!]

[Ahh! Hold on this! Oh, sock it to me!]

It's true, you were a virgin until you met me
I was the first to make you hot and wetty-wetty
You tell your parents that we're goin' out
Never to the movies, just straight to my house
You said it yourself, you like it like I do
Put your lips on my ****, and suck my ******* too
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning
My appetite is sex, 'cause me so horny

On the Soho Square theme (and fitting for the weather)

Kirsty MacColl - Soho Square

Your name froze on the winter air
An empty bench in soho square
Forgotten now I turn away
Just save me for a rainy day
But dont be sorry
I dont want to hear it baby

My feet froze in the winter chill
I knew Id probably get ill
But I was praying we could fill
An empty bench and still
Youre so sorry
But I dont want your pity baby

Its all yours now please dont tease
The pigeons shiver in the naked trees
And Ill do anything but
Please dont hurt me
Just kiss me quick
cos its my birthday
And I feel so small
I dont know why
But no Im not too old to cry

An empty bench in soho square
If youd have come youd have found me there
But you never did cos you dont care
And Im so sorry baby
I dont mind loneliness too much
But when I met you I was touched
And that was good enough for me
But do we always have to be sorry
Why cant we just be happy baby?

One day youll be waiting there
No empty bench in soho square
And well dance around like we dont care
And Ill be much too old to cry
And youll kiss me quick in case I die
Before my birthday

One day youll be waving there
No empty bench in soho square
No I dont know the reason why
Ill love you till the day I die
But one day youll be waiting there
Come summertime in soho square
And Ill be painting stars up in the sky
Before I get too old to cry
Before my birthday
I hope I see those pigeons fly
Before my birthday
In soho square on my birthday

The tape wouldn't be complete without this classic:


I Touch Myself
by Belinda Carlisle
Wasn't that the Divinyls?


How about:
I Useta Love her
- The Saw Doctors

i have fallen for another
she can make her own way home
and even if she asked me now
i'd let her go alone
i useta see her up the chapel
when she went to sunday mass
and when she'd go up to receive
i'd kneel down there and watch her pass
the glory of her ass

i useta lover, i useta lover once
a long, long time ago
i useta lover, i useta lover once
a long, long time ago
it's gone, all my lovin is gone
it's gone, all my lovin is gone

d'you remember her collectin
for concern on christmas eve
she was on a forty-eight hour fast
just water and black tea
i walked straight up and made
an ostentatious contribution
and i winked at her to tell her
i'd seduce her in the future
when she's feelin' loser

so now you know the truth of it
she's no longer my obsession
though the thoughts and dreams i had of her
would take six months in confession
see i met this young one thursday night
and she's inta free expression
and her mission is to rid the world
of this sinful repression
then we had a session

it's gone, long long gone

i have fallen for another
she can maker her own way home

Yep, but the Belinda Carlisle version was more my era. :)

There's a good version by Blondie as well.

Back in the rain forest
Joni Mitchell's version of Answer Me, an over-the top (but lovely) tear-jerker; just the thing to rekindle a romance. Better than roses.

Answer me
Oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Please answer me my love

You were mine yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me how I've gone astray
Please answer me my love

If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me my love

If you're happier without me
I'll try not to care
But if you still think about me
Please listen to my prayer

You must know that I've been true
Won't you say that we can start anew
In my sorrow now I turn to you
Please answer me, my love.
