Song of the Day - Bucket List - Nelly Furtado


singersroom

Today's song is from Nelly Furtado's latest album, Spirit Indestructible, and I like it for several reasons.  First of all, I love the topic of the song.  The phrase "bucket list" is a relatively new one, but it refers to an ideal that's been around forever.  Though we may not all have a bucket list, we all have dreams, and instead of dreaming about doing those things, maybe we should actually just go out and do them.  Life is too short, right?

Also, the tune itself is both catchy and melodic, acoustic and sweet sounding.  So if you like Nelly Furtado and this sounds like the type of song you might like, press play..

Bucket List

Climb a mountain swim the seven seas
Get your body to look like Hercules
Jump out an airplane with a parachute
Fly up and away on a hot air balloon

We don’t know where it all ends
Some say it’s almost over almost over
If this is it then baby why aren’t I on your shoulder
On your shoulder

In this lifetime
I want you to be mine
Cuz I took a long look at my bucket list
And I saw that at the bottom it said our first kiss and
Whoa I’m running out of time
Whoa I’m running out of time

Get on your boots and visit the North Pole
Try every sport until you score a goal
Follow the path of a butterfly
Go to Ground Zero and do nothing but cry

In this lifetime
I want you to be mine
Cuz I took a long look at my bucket list
And I saw that at the bottom it said our first kiss and
Whoa I’m running out of time
Whoa I’m running out of time

This is not a dare
Not some trick of a daredevil
I’d trade in my wildest dreams
For your forever

In this lifetime
I want you to be mine
Cuz I took a long look at my bucket list
And I saw that at the bottom it said our first kiss and
Cuz I took a long look at my bucket list
And I saw that at the bottom it said our first kiss and
Whoa I’m running out of time
Whoa I’m running out of time
Whoa I’m running out of time
Whoa I’m running out of time
