In the middle, in the middle, in the middle (They Might Be Giants)
Just try to listen to her voice without getting happy (the singer is the daughter of the guy who wrote this song for the New York Transit Authority, I think, in the 1960s)
Lover, You Should've Come Over (Jeff Buckley)
Too young to hold on / and too old to just break free and run
Left of Center (Suzanne Vega)
In Between Days (The Cure)
Me Cuesta Tanto Olvidarte (Mecano)
Entre el cielo y el suelo...
