My current House-related obession is the official soundtrack. While it doesn't include what many 粉丝 would consider essential House songs (such as The Who's "Baba O'Reilly" and AC/DC's "Highway To Hell", just to name a couple), every track on the album is excellent and reminds us of our favourite episodes, scenes and characters. So I thought I would share with 你 a few lyrics from certain songs on the album that really capture the essence of all that is Dr. Gregory House.

*Lyrics in bold are ones that I think are particularly significant!


From 'Walter Reed'- Michael Penn

I count the cases piled up high
For the 1:15.
For platform and for passerby
It's the same routine.
I'm ranting while I'm raving,
There's nothing here worth saving.

Tell me now, what 更多 do 你 need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've 迷失 the will for fighting
Over everything.
Well there's a few things I gotta say
And make no mistake, I'm mad.
'Cause every good thing I've had
Abandoned me.

All I want to do is hide.
It's graduation day
And everything I learned inside
Didn't seem to pay.
I've had my fill of palm trees
And lighting up Grauman's Chinese.

Tell me now, what 更多 do 你 need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've 迷失 the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad.
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.

A sad and lonesome me.

I'm the walking wounded
And I'd say it to your face
But I can't find my place.

So tell me now, what 更多 do 你 need?
Take me to Walter Reed tonight.
Baby I've 迷失 the will for fighting
Over everything
And there's a few things I gotta say.
Make no mistake, I'm mad
'Cause every good thing I had
Abandoned me.

A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.
A sad and lonesome me.


This songs always reminds me of how House is in general. Sort of brooding and melancholy but in a way, kind of upbeat about his own misery.




From 'See The World'- Gomez

日 to day
Where do 你 want to be?
'Cos now you're trying to pick a fight
With everyone 你 need

You seem like a soldier
Who's 迷失 his composure
You're wounded and playing a waiting game
In no-man's land no-one's to blame

See the world
Find an old fashioned girl
And when all's been 说 and done
It's the things that are given, not won
Are the things that 你 earned

Empty handed, surrounded 由 a senseless scene
With nothing of significance
Besides a shadow of a dream
You sound like an old joke
You're worn out, a bit broken
Asking me time and time again
And the answer's still the same

See the world
Find an old fashioned girl
And when all's been 说 and done
It's the things that are given, not won
Are the things that 你 earned

You've got a chance to put things right
So how's it going to be?
Lay down your arms now
And put us beyond doubt
So reach out it's not too far away
Don't mess around now, don't delay

See the world...


This song reminds me of how people see House. People who care about him, like Cuddy, Wilson, Cameron and Stacey, see him as a tough but also fragile man and I think this song captures that!




From 'Are 你 Alright?'- Lucinda Williams

Are 你 alright?
All of a sudden 你 went away
Are 你 alright?
I hope 你 come back around someday.
Are 你 alright?
I haven't seen 你 in a real long time.
Are 你 alright?
Could 你 give me some kind of sign?
Are 你 alright?
I looked around me and 你 were gone.
Are 你 alright?
I feel like there must be something wrong.
Are 你 alright?
Cause it seems like 你 disappeared.
Are 你 alright?
Cause I've been feeling a little scared.
Are 你 alright?

Are 你 sleeping through the night?
Do 你 have someone to hold 你 tight?
Do 你 have someone to hang out with?
Do 你 have someone to hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） you?
Hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） you
Hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） you
Are 你 alright?

Are 你 alright?
Is there something been bothering you?
Are 你 alright?
I wish you'd give me a little clue.
Are 你 alright?
Is there something 你 want to say?
Are 你 alright?
Just tell me that you're OK.
Are 你 alright?
Cause 你 took off without a word.
Are 你 alright?
你 flew away like a little bird.
Are 你 alright?
Is there anything I can do?
Are 你 alright?
Cause I need to hear from you.
Are 你 alright?

Are 你 sleeping through the night?
Do 你 have someone to hold 你 tight?
Do 你 have someone to hang out with?
Do 你 have someone to hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） you?
Hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） you
Hug & 吻乐队（Kiss） 你

Are 你 alright?
Are 你 alright?
Are 你 alright?


This song makes me think of House's relationship with Wilson and Cuddy. They are constantly trying to help him out and make sure he is okay. But, like in the song, they repeat themselves ("Are 你 alright? Are 你 alright") But House often ignores them 或者 does the opposite of what they say.




I also like the lyrics from 'Got To Be 更多 Careful' 由 Jon Cleary. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the full lyrics, but the song definately reminds me of the battles House has faced against both Vogler and Tritter. And, of course, the infamous 'You Can't Always Get Want' 由 The Rolling Stones/Band From TV.......

YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT 你 WANT.

BUT IF 你 TRY SOMETIMES,

WELL,

你 JUST MIGHT FIND...

你 GET WHAT 你 NEED!

Oh yeah.
