Good With You/Cling To Me by L.P. | Estinien, Aymeric

Estinien

Mostly I'm bad mostly I make the people that care about me and love me sad, I don't know why mostly I lie, maybe it's because I don't want anyone to know who I am oh, but you, with your angel face you take me to a place I've never been oh, and you, with your innocence you break through my defense

I'm only good with you... I've done so many things wrong I've sung a thousand songs What did you see in me? It's still a mystery Thought that I was through, you made me someone new and I'm only good with you

Mostly I'm a mess, never say no, get myself in trouble tellin everybody yes, I don't know why Oh, but you, when I feel this love, you're better than any drug I ever had Oh, and you, you make me see the light in the darkest night

I'm only good with you... I've done so many things wrong I've sung a thousand songs What did you see in me? It's still a mystery Thought that I was through, you made me someone new and I'm only good with you

When you're around all the demons in my head can't be found I'm only good with you...

Aymeric

I know it seems blacker than midnight no one knows you, no one to hold tight

Everything you are isn't what they thought Everything you learned isn't what they taught Everything is wrong, no you don't belong

Before you slip hopelessly: cling to me you can say anything to me when you're lost, turn and see you know I'll always be here, never let go -

Cling to me, cling to me!

When you're too hurt to talk, I am a rock Cling to me, cling to me!

Estinien

I'm only good with you... I've done so many things wrong, I've sung a thousand songs What did you see in me? It's still a mystery Thought that I was through, you made me someone new and I'm only good with you...

Okay 1. this is one of my favorite music videos of all time, it probably always will be, I have a sense memory of where I was when I watched it for the first time when I was up attending college, 2. HELLO?? L.P. IN THIS IS SOOOOO GENDER, and 3. this one ALSO hit me like a freight train.

One of the things I adore about it is the stark contrast between the "A" and "B" sides, of the two songs and how they're like a conversation. The bolded section of Aymeric's lyrics ("Cling to Me") is especially potent for me because those words can be applied to Estinien, to Haurchefant, and to Aymeric himself. I also love how the way L.P. performs the excerpt of "Cling to Me" lends itself so well to the lyrics: it's a proffered hand, but it's also begging for the person being addressed to take that hand, the desperation of waiting to see if they will.

I also love this song as a WoLstinien song, especially "what did you see in me? It's still a mystery / darling I was through, you made me someone new".

dalla serata di venerdì possiamo parlarne.

Esco alle 18 per un aperitivo con F., ex compagno di studi ed ora collega. Chiaramente la cosa si prolunga fino alle 2 o le 3, non ricordo a che ora sono tornata a casa nè il numero di spritz che ho bevuto, so solo che avevo 50€ e che la mattina dopo non c’erano più. 

Ridendo e scherzando confesso a F. che trovo L.P., che si aggirava nei dintorni, molto carino. Ovviamente lui lo conosce, e chiaramente ha voluto presentarmelo, nonostante le nostre condizioni pietose.
