Line(s) of the Day #GooGooDolls

And I don’t want the world to see me
‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand.
When everything’s meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Taken from the song ‘Iris’ by alternative rock band Goo Goo Dolls, which was written for the 1998 film City of Angels.

It is. Great soundtrack too, especially the U2 song on it.

  I have to admit I’ve never actually seen the film! Worth a watch?

  Its a 3 star movie. I wanted to love it but it has pretty big flaws. I discovered this song from it though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaeALaGlLKs

  I’m not normally a U2 kind of person, but that’s not bad!

One of my favourite songs ever.

Quite surprised that I recognise this song just by reading the lyrics! Good choice! 🙂

Like the song. Like the film. Call me sappy. I’m okay with it. 🙂

The U2 song I quoted above is something else too. I know it’s not the trendiest thing to admit to, but I preferred City of Angels to Wings of Desire. I thought it was meant to be a film more about the heart than the head.
