(Posting mainly at bunkercomplex.wordpress.com) My name is Andrea, and I'm a 24-year-old Southern California girl. I distract myself from the pain that is grad school with Peter Gabriel, Phil Hendrie, peanut butter and apricot jam sandwiches, bicycles, Korean stationery, movie marathon nights, and baking. I use tumblr to post whatever gets my jollies. You can email me at bunkercomplex@gmail.com.
Folks I Follow

Sting - “Hounds of Winter” (2009 version)

Sting - “Fortress Around Your Heart”
As I returned across the lands I’d known
I recognized the fields where I’d once played
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I’d laid
And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Sting - “Why Should I Cry For You”
Underrated Sting song of the day.
Under the Arctic fire
Over the seas of silence
Hauling on frozen ropes
For all my days remaining
But would north be true?

Sting - “Ghost Story”
Underrated Sting song of the day. The 3 minute mark is completely satisfying.
Another winter comes
His icy fingers creep
Into these bones of mine
These memories never sleep
And all these differences
A cloak I borrow
We kept our distances
Why should it follow I must have loved you

Sting - “Mad About You”
Underrated Sting song of the day.
A stone’s throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though a million stars were shining
My heart was lost on a distant planet
That whirls around the April moon
Whirling in an arc of sadness
I’m lost without you, I’m lost without you
Though all my kingdoms turn to sand and fall into the sea
I’m mad about you, I’m mad about you

Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart & Sting - “All for Love”
This song joined up the most goofy threesome of singers possible. And it was in The Three Musketeers (1993), starring The Kiefer and Tim Curry. More than enough reason to post.
From the same song writers who created Bryan Adam’s “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You”.
The single reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 22, 1994, and remained there for three weeks. (via wikipedia)

Sting - “If I Ever Lose My Faith In You”
“I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time I close my eyes I see your face”
