You and Me by Lifehouse

I must say it's all because of David Cook. Well.. I've been listening to soft rock music but never been fond of them until recently. I discovered that I have plenty of Lifehouse's songs in m playlist, s courtesy of my brother. I just can't help but fall in love with Jason Wade especially with their songs, You and Me and Shrek's soundtrack, "You Belong to Me".

Just found a video from YouTube that I would like to share with you. Am actually planning to have both of these songs played in my wedding day.. hopefully! Cool, isn't it???

Enjoy... oh! BTW, I've included here the lyrics.



You and Me by Lifehouse

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up
and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

there's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
everything she does is beautiful
everything she does is right

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive

Do you have a Best Friend?

I once had a best friend but just like other people in my life, she came and now gone. It was almost ten (10) years ago when this song became my only companion. Wondering why? See this video from Toni Braxton.. Best Friend.

Oh, I've also added some lyrics to help you understand it more. For those who have experienced it, you can certainly pass it through! I just did! It's just so surprising to know that somewhere in my heart, there's still a little pain striking inside me. ^_^



Best Friend by Toni Braxton

Oh, I remember on the 4th of july
Thats when I learned it was true
The stories of taboo
How could you do it if your love was true
And still want to be in my life
And make no sacrifice
Now you come and tell me
That youre really sorry
And ask to be in my life again

Oh no theres no way to begin
Or start love over
Oh no lovemaking will there be here tonight
Oh dont you sigh
Or come cryin on my shoulder
Shouldve thought about the consequences then
You and my best friend

Oh I recall the pain it hurt so bad
I didnt have the strength to live
But I was just too young to die
See I have had my heart broken before
But never like this
I admit it baby left me feeling scorned
Now the love inside my heart is fading
The trust of my man and my best friend betrayed

Oh no theres no way to begin
Or start love over
Oh no lovemaking will there be here tonight
Oh dont you sigh
Or come cryin on my shoulder
Shouldve thought about the consequences then
You and my best friend

How could you do that to me
And tell me that our love would always be
Always be

Oh no theres no way to begin
Or start love over
Oh no lovemaking will there be here tonight
Oh dont you sigh
Or come cryin on my shoulder
Shouldve thought about the consequences then
You and my best friend

..oh What a friend?

my grown up christmas songs...

I’ve said it a million times. “Christmas is my favorite season of the year, aside from my birthday ofcourse!” I just love the fact that everybody is looking forward to a family reunion and everyone, including me is really busy preparing gifts for loved ones.

I usually start my Christmas countdown at 12:01 of the first day of September. These were actually the time when the nights are longer than the days. Our neighbors are getting confused with the Xmas Carols they hear from our house. Kinda exaggerated as it seems but they can’t just piss me off to stop playing my favorite Xmas Songs!

Actually, I have several favorite Christmas songs. Well… my list doesn’t have the Happy Chipmunks singing the long time favorite “Feliz Navidad”, just so you know. Without further adieu, here’s my list.

A Perfect Christmas
All I want for Christmas is You
Christmas won’t be the same without you
I’ll be home for Xmas
Have Yourself a Merry Christmas
Grown up Christmas List
Even Santa Fell In Love
Sunny Christmas
And the ultimate fave.. The Christmas Song of various versions.

Isn’t it nice to make everyday a Christmas day? It is the happiest and my most anticipated season of the year. Merry Christmas everyone!

if i were to sing these songs...

Today, one of my friends asked me to give him a list of my favourite love songs. As I started to write down the details, I realized that if I have a golden voice like a diva, I would love to remake these songs but then again I’m not.

O… Okay… I’ll give it a shot. I’m into developing my very debut album entitled, “If I Were to Sing These Songs”, not much of Kris Aquino’s album. (I’ll be singing these songs, aryt? Well… in my dreams.. lolz) The economical CD package is filled with 18 great love songs that have been my friends in dealing with the matters of the heart. Here are the included tracks.

1. A Groovy Kind of Love – Phil Collins
2. In My Life – Patti Austin
3. First Love – Kristy Mc Nichol & Christopher Atkins
4. The First Time I Loved Forever –
5. Almost Over You – Sheena Easton
6. If This is Love – Melissa Manchester
7. Healing – Deniece Williams
8. Overjoyed – Stevie Wonder
9. Someone to Watch Over Me – Ella Fitzgerald
10. You Never Gave Up – Crystal Gayle
11. Run to You – Whitney Houston
12. Very Special Love – Maureen McGovern
13. All My Life – Aaron Neville & Linda Ronstadt
14. Love Lifts Up Where We Belong – Joe Krockner
15. You Changed My Life In A Moment – Janet Frankie
16. I Just fall In Love Again – Anne Murray
17. I’m Never Gonna Say Goodbye – Billy Preston
18. I Love You, Goodbye –Celine Dion

It’s a pretty long list but then again it’s just a list. I don’t have enough explanation with my choice of songs. The same reason that tells you, “ei don’t argue with me!” All I know is that these musical poetries have touched my life and been my sincere company at times I need a friend most.

It’s just today that I discover… half of my life was spent smiling…that's good to know ^_^
