Somebody to Love(s)

I realised that day while listening to the radio that there are 3 versions of Somebody to Love that I really love and enjoy. Hence, here they are:

Somebody To Love – Glee

Somebody to Love – Justin Bieber

Somebody to Love – Leighton Meester ft. Robin Thicke

Leighton Meester wearing that super wrong. She doesn’t have enough cleavage to wear that leh =x

Songs of the decade.

Was listening to Shan and Rozz today on radio and they were doing some “songs of the decade” special today. For some reason, almost all of the songs brought me back to those days when the songs were always aired on the radio.

I can’t really remember all of the songs, but here are those that I remembered:

Drops of Jupiter by Train
I remember listening to this song every Friday night at 987′s Top 20 Countdown and it was number 1 for quite a few weeks. For some reason, back then, the title of this song made me feel as though I have a blanket covering me on cold nights, and it was my lullaby for quite sometime.

Train came out with a new single recently, “Hey Soul Sister”. I thought it’s quite catchy but somehow still I like Drops of Jupiter better.

Complicated by Avril Lavigne
This was Avril Lavigne’s first single (it’s been so long). I liked her songs quite a lot and even bought her album after Sk8er Boi came out. I love the artwork of that album.

2002 was a year when I was still confused about school and everything. Confused about many things and got quite “emo” (that’s the only word that I can use to describe). Everyday after school would be to stay at home, do work and listen to my CDs.

The Reason by Hoobastank
I learnt the drums for this myself within a day. haha. Simple, yet just catches everyone’s attention.

You’re Beautiful by James Blunt
I have to admit, there was a point in time when I got very irritated at listening to this song. It was only until about 2 years of not listening to this song that I was okay to listening to it.

Oh ya, once, in China, I was with Huzz and I think Liying in a taxi when the radio played this song and they didn’t censor the word “F888888 high”. Interesting but no one really noticed it anyway.

Sexy Back by Justin Timberlake
Honestly, I don’t really have much recognition about this song until the beginning of this year. I guess it was because I went to Chengdu for 4 months, and lost touch with all the songs that were “in” during that period (I lived on Tank’s songs and a lot of oldies that the driver listened to every morning on our way to work. Imagine that!). The term “sexyback” was used very frequently and it was after a while before I learnt about this song. Lol

Alright, the end.

TANK – 如果我變成回憶 (If I become a memory)

I absolutely love this song! It’s just so freaking sad and I think Tank‘s writing it from his point of view?

I love Tank’s song.

累了 交困里努力清醒着
也照惯例想你了
好怕一放心睡了
心跳在梦中 不听话的 就停止了

如果我变成回忆 最怕我单独终极
顽固的烂在空气 不整理心里每一寸空隙
原来依然爱我的你总哭 承受失去
这样不公平 请你整理 把我忘记

Katy Perry – Thinking of You

Heard this on radio today and was wondering who sang it. My sis told me it’s Katy Perry. Gosh. I’m so outdated.

Katy Perry’s sexy btw. She has the curves at the right places.

The MV’s pretty sad.

Here’s to the night – Eve 6

I think my music choice was greatly influenced by the songs that I first listened to when I first started listening to the radio. The genre was mainly alternative. Here’s a song that I really really like.

Heres To The Night – Eve 6

So denied,
So I lied,
Are you the now or never kind
In a day and a day love
I’m gonna be gone for good again
Are you willing to be had,
Are you cool with just tonight?
Here’s a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here’s to the nights we felt alive
Here’s to the tears you knew you’d cry
Here’s to good bye
Tomorrow’s gonna come too soon

If I Were A Boy – Beyonce

Great song!

Don’t think too much though. It doesn’t reflect how I feel.

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wanted
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d stick up for me.

But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don’t listen to her
You don’t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

时间 or 空间 (Time or Space?)

Out of the blue Emil Chau’s (周華健) 让我欢喜让我憂 popped into my head so I just sang it.

I sang, “就请你给我多一点点空间再多一点点温柔， 不要一切都带走~”

My sis said isn’t it, “就请你给我多一点点时间再多一点点温柔~”

Decided to Youtube it and guess what? We were both correct.

My dad’s a big Emil Chau fan so I guess all these songs were just something we listened to as kids.

Your Guardian Angel

I think this song should be used in weddings as a vow.

SUPER SWEET!!

When I see your smile
Tears run down my face I can’t replace
And now that I’m strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I’ll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I’ll stand up with you forever
I’ll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Hm it reminds me of that particular scene in Heroes 2, where Claire tries to jump off the Hollywood sign and her bf catches her coz he said he doesn’t want to see her hurt. SWEET leh!! haha

蔡旻佑 Evan Yo is back!

Guess his record company decided on a new kind of image for him. Blue hair and everything eh? I wonder if he is just as innocent as a year back though (based on the interview on 100% Entertainment). Haha. But his songs are just as great!

Kinda like this song: Stay With Me The beginning MV reminds me of 我可以 (I Can).

Song in your head.

I wake up every morning with a song in my head.

Kinda random yes. Yesterday was Alicia Key’s “Teenage Love Affair”. Today’s The Kook’s “Always Where I Needed to Be”.

I don’t hear the whole song in my head. Just probably the part that jumps out at me whenever I hear it.

I always thought that I would end up with you eventually.
