Anyone Else But You

This song by the Moldy Peaches was used in two of my favourite movies ever. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Juno. They both talk of love in the most peculiar yet honest of circumstances and they both shook the hell out of me when I first saw them. I really hope Love turns out to be like that for me, when it finally gets here. Just like these two movies. And just like this gorgeous song. So I guess now what remains to be seen is whether what I got in my hands right now is love or Love...

Here is the song in Juno:


and here it is in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind:


Finally here is the full version of the song and the lyrics for you to sing along to. Enjoy!


You're a part time lover and a full time friend
The monkey on your back is the latest trend
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of a train
I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't, you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

I will find my niche in your car
With my mp3 DVD rumple-packed guitar
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Du du du du du du dudu
Du du du du du du dudu
Du du du du du du dudu du

Up up down down left right left right B A start
Just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

You are always trying to keep it real
I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

We both have shiny happy fits of rage
You want more fans, I want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Don Quixote was a steel driving man
My name is Adam I'm your biggest fan
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Squinched up your face and did a dance
You shook a little turd out of the bottom of your pants
I don't see what anyone can see, in anyone else
But you

Du du du du du du dudu
Du du du du du du dudu
Du du du du du du dudu du
But you
