Tunes Thursdays (1)

So in accordance to me supposing to be a music/book blog I thought I would start a weekly meme that highlights some new artists or songs that I have fallen in love with. And I called it Tunes Thursdays, I'm not sure if any other blogs do this so I'm sorry if I stole it... All the blogs I follow don't so ya....

RULES
1- Choose a song/artist/band.
2- Include lyrics if it is a song in your post, and possibly a recording or video.
3- Included something about the artist including something about their background (or a link)and a picture maybe
4- Explain why you like this song/artist/band.
5- Post some links to the artists myspace/facebook/youtube site/ website if they have any.

These will usually be very long posts since I'm including the lyrics. If you start doing Tunes Thursdays at your own blog could you leave a comment link.

Lyrics:
She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of the world that she's left behind
It's all about the exposure the lens I told her
The angles were all wrong now
She's ripping wings off of butterflies
keep your feet on the ground
when your head's in the clouds
Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle; bury the castle
Ba da ba ba da ba ba ha
So one day he found her crying
Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her
And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick
And the clock struck 12
Well make sure to build your house brick by boring brick
or the wolves gonna blow it down
keep your feet on the ground
when your head's in the clouds
Well go get your shovel
And we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Well you built up a world of magic
Because your real life is tragic
Yeah you built up a world of magic
If it's not real
You can't hold it in your hand
You can't feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it
But if it's true
You can see it with your eyes
Or even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah
Go get your shovel
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Guys x2: ba da ba ba da da ba da......
Hayley x2: ba da ba ba da ba ba da.....

Why I like this song:
Due to the fact that I love Paramore's songs anyway, It wasn't a surprise when I got their new cd for christmas I fell in love with the whole cd. But Brick to Boring Brick stuck out to me for some reason, it might just be the rhythm or Hailey's voice when she sings this one but the song stuck out. And when I saw the music video (posted below) I fell even more in love with the song.
