'In Your Eyes' ~ Peter Gabriel ~

People have been talking about how squeediddleyumptious Benji's new MySpace background is, but Taylor and I didn't get the reference. Here are two responses to Taylor's post on the subject:

Moosey some of the Benjellers ha posted to bnji's ms about the Say Anything analogy awhie back...then this shows up along with a caption under a picture about she singing one of the songs from the movie..we believe this new background might be shout out to benjellers.

here to explain the dealeo for ya Bejellers: Here is how the whole Benjelle thing relates. Benji is classic that is put this up. He's basically telling us haha those nay sayers to Say Anything they want. ( Non-believer Benjellers lol) Remember Dobler in the movie is this nerdy guy who falls hard for this girl and basically won't stop until they get be together in the end despite everyone saying it won't happen and those nay sayers. haha. The whole boom box thing is perfect too! The whole boom box thing is symbolic because he holds us this boom box in front of her house with this song professing his love within the song. Ohh that Benji he is such a tease in his clues. It's the the piviotal point in the movie when things change for him and the girl maybe realizing.. hello?.... what could be?... haha He's also sayin this Benjellers this one's for ya so hold tight more on the way to come for the tour. hahaha. I hope this one helps!

Thanks guys! I DEFINITELY need to go rent that movie, now! I'd heard a reference (Yes, Schnitzel, on Gilmore Girls : D) to a movie in which the guy stood outside his love's window all night, blasting 'In Your Eyes' on his boombox - I guess this is it! : D

Just because Peter Gabriel's music (especially the songs 'In Your Eyes' and 'Red Rain' - You should listen to them!!!) is on my loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong list of music Iove, here are the lyrics to that song:

love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes

love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
