"Impressed" - A Song for Bella and Edward
Besides, I think this picture of Charlie Sexton looks exactly like Edward. Absolutely spot on. So when I realized that this is the face I picture for Edward, and he also sings this song "Impressed" about a love that is stronger than Romeo and Juliet's, well, that just hit the high note for me. (Note that I don't think Edward looks like Charlie Sexton, but I do think Charlie sometimes looks like Edward.)

"Impressed" Lyrics
performed by Charlie Sexton; lyrics by Robert Quinn Wilson & Steven M. Krikorian
Romeo and JulietLouis and Mam'zelle Antoinette
Napoleon and Josephine
Mickey and the Rodent Queen
Anthony and Cleopatra
Nicholas and Alexandra
Ken and Barbie, Dick and Jane
Superman and Lois Lane
I am not impressed
You know I love you the best
(impressed)
I am not impressed
You know they're just a bunch of losers
Well they're a lot of fools
A long list of victims
Oh, they're not that cool
We've got nothing in this world
To live up to
I'll never kill you this I swear
Then kill myself just to be fair
I'll never need another queen
We'll never face the guillotine
Love is patient, love is kind
Doesn't poison baby's wine
Isn't jealous or provoked
Doesn't quit or give up hope
Oh, I am not impressed
I love you the best
(impressed)
I am not impressed
You know they're just a bunch of losers
They're just a lot of fools
Long list of victims
They're not that cool
We've got nothing to live up to
I am not impressed
Long list of victims
I am not impressed
Long list of victims

More About Charlie Sexton
From age 12 to 16, Charlie was earning his chops hanging around and playing with Jimmie Vaughan, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Joe Ely. He released his debut album, Pictures for Pleasure, at age 16. He then joined the Austin, TX bluesy band Arc Angels from 1992 to 1994; they released one self-titled album.At age 24, when the Arc Angels disbanded, Charlie formed his own group. The Charlie Sexton Sextet played from 1994 to 1995 and released Under the Wishing Tree, an album with a mix of blues, folk rock, and Celtic-flavored rock.
Among other songwriting, producing, and playing credits, he toured and recorded with Bob Dylan as lead guitarist from 2000-2003 and Edie Brickell from 2003-2004.
Charlie names Bob Dylan as his primary songwriting influence and Jimmie and Stevie Ray Vaughan as his strongest guitar influences.

"Impressed" Video
(I sometimes wonder if the band Flock of Seagulls, remembered chiefly for the hair, was so named because someone looked at the band members and said, "Hey, a whole flock of seagulls could make a nest in there!")
Note: For some reason this video keeps saying "not available." I can't fix it yet, but it is available on YouTube; so click here if the video on this page won't play for you.

Val says:
WOW! I thought I was the only person in this world who owns "Pictures For Pleasure" IMPRESSED, is always in my iPod playlist. Somehow, I heard the song and fell in love with it when I was in high school.
I'm partial to the song, I think it's a great song for them, HOWEVER, I think I'm partial to the Debussy tune for them...so, they're both good :)

Falling In Love By Falling Up IS Edward and Bella's theme song, per my friends and I...
Falling In Love lyrics
You are my one true love
You are the voice that is so sweet
In everything I do, you bring the best out of me
You are my wings to fly
You are the wind beneath them
I miss you every night, when I close my eyes
You put your feelings down
You stopped your tears you brought me love
You held to my heart
You held with hope to have me near
Sometimes I close my eyes
Sometimes I let my hunger rise
I think of all you are, you are the love of my life
[chorus]
All of my dreams and my passions
Are in your hands
You reached me in my need
Your rhythm flows under my skin
I need you desperately,
A sweet healing that will begin
You are my one true love
You are the voice that is so sweet
In everything I do, you bring the best out of me
My everything is you
The very motions that I move
And everything with richness
The richness of the peace you bring
Always, always you are with me
You are the love of my life
He comes to find you on your knees

COOL!!!
but, hey! have you guys ever heard a song called " time is running out" by muse?? stephenie meyer said once that there's a few plot that won't be finished without muse's song. i think she was talking about that song that time, here's the lyrics :
Time Is Running Out
I think I'm drowning
Asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell
That you've created
You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction
You will be the death of me
You will be the death of me
Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it
Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted
Now that you know I'm trapped sense of elation
You'd never dream of
Breaking this fixation
You will squeeze the life out of me
Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it
Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
Oh
You will suck the life out of me
Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it
Our time is running out
Our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out
How did it come to this?
Oh
cool wasn't it?
but I think the song "Impressed" is fine.

- I had no idea Sexton was still around. I actually still have the Pictures for Pleasure album. I'm glad he got rid of the hair. :)
