Twisted Mix Tape: No Regrets

I am back this week to link up with Jen’s Twisted MixTape and the theme is all about Past Mistakes. Thank you Jen for a moment to pour out my heart!

Michael Bolton Said I Loved You…But I Lied

While I have never played willie nilly with someone’s heart I had to include this song. It’s deep (tongue firmly in cheek)!

Said I loved you but I lied
‘Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you but I was wrong
‘Cause love could never ever feel so strong
Said I loved you but I lied

He is singing that he loves someone so much that the words I love you are inadequate.
Aww!
Now, let’s take a moment to talk about the video. We would be remiss if we did not discuss the hair, his shirt open to his navel and the bird flying around.

Phoebe Snow – No Regrets

When I was a kid my mom and aunt played this record so much and my sister an I ragged on it but Phoebe Snow is that stuff. Phoebe’s voice is smooth, slick and plays with melodies like nobody’s business. Yes, the song is about feelings one has at the end of the affair, but so what? Phoebe owns this song.

Miss Otis Regrets

I could not find a version of Ella singing it but will settle for this Carmen Mcrae version.

This song is the ultimate cautionary tale for side chicks: stop checking phones, creeping on facebook and emails. Dump that knucklehead and keep it moving or you’ll wind up in jail. Cole Porter knew what was up when he wrote this song 60 years ago.

Cats in the Cradle

Cause what’s a mix tape without a little guilt? Each day I look at my daughter and she looks and acts so much like me. It scares the snot out of me! I call her a mini me but when she takes it to heart I get nervous.

Please Forgive Me – Bryan Adams

Dudes! This is the second Bryan Adams song on my list. Trippy. This song gets a spot on the list because it is such a begging song.
