Last month, this is the song that I discovered and it played in my head almost everyday! Sabi ng friend ko, pang-adik daw yung song.. but I don’t care… I just love the beat and the message of the song. This was featured on Glee, but I first heard it on RX… but this version, the acoustic one, was shared by my friend on facebook. Here’s Young The Giant, with Cough Syrup.
“Cough Syrup”
Life’s too short to even care at all oh
I’m losing my mind losing my mind losing control
These fishes in the sea they’re staring at me oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum
Oh
If I could find a way to see this straight
I’d run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now
I’m waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down
Uhh ch ch ch ch
Life’s too short to even care at all oh
I’m coming up now coming up now out of the blue
These zombies in the park they’re looking for my heart
Oh oh oh oh
A dark world aches for a splash of the sun oh oh
If I could find a way to see this straight
I’d run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now
And so I run now to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I’m waiting for this cough syrup to come down
Life’s too short to even care at all oh
I’m losing my mind losing my mind losing control
If I could find a way to see this straight
I’d run away
To some fortune that I should have found by now
So I run now to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I’m waiting for this cough syrup to come down
I’m gonna pick up the pieces,
And build a Lego house
If things go wrong we can knock it downMy three words have two meanings,
There’s one thing on my mind
It’s all for you
And it’s dark in a cold December, but I’ve got you to keep me warm
And if you’re broken I’ll mend you and keep you sheltered from the storm that’s raging on now
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind
I’ll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m gonna paint you by numbers
And colour you in
If things go right we can frame it, and put you on a wall
And it’s so hard to say it but I’ve been here before
And I’ll surrender up my heart
And swap it for yours
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind
I’ll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
Don’t hold me down
I think my braces are breaking and it’s more than I can take
And it’s dark in a cold December, but I’ve got you to keep me warm
And if you’re broken I’ll mend you and keep you sheltered from the storm that’s raging on now
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind
I’ll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of sight, I’m out of mind
I’ll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I’ve done I think I love you better now
I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
And out of all these things I’ve done I will love you better now
Naghahanap pa ng maaaya
Pagkat sadyang walang magawa
Nagsasayang ng bawat oras sa wala (hala)
Nasearch mo nang lahat sa internet
Naubos na ang load sa kakatext
Naghihintay ka lang na may makukulit ulit
What are you waiting for
Call my number, knock on my door
Nandito lang ako
How I wish you’ll let me know
Kung sinu-sino pang tinatawagan mo, nandito lang naman ako
At kung saan-saan ka pa naghahanap, nadito lang naman ako
Kung sinu-sino pa ang tinatawagan mo, nandito lang naman ako
Kung saan-saan ka pa naghahanap, nadito lang naman ako
Ako na lang sana
Tayo na lang dal’wa
Sana nalaman mo pala
Ako na lang sana
Ako na lang kung pwede lang, I wish
Ako na lang ako nalang, I kiss
Ako na lang ang paborito mong mamiss, Oh yes
‘Di ko babasagin ang ‘yong trip
Whatever man ang gusto mong gimmick
Sabay sa jamming mo sa gig, astig
What are you waiting for
Call my number, knock on my door
Nandito lang ako
How I wish you’ll let me know
Kung sinu-sino pang tinatawagan mo, nandito lang naman ako
At kung saan-saan ka pa naghahanap, nadito lang naman ako
Kung sinu-sino pa ang tinatawagan mo, nandito lang naman ako
Kung saan-saan ka pa naghahanap, nadito lang naman ako
Ako na lang sana
Ako na lang sana
Ako na lang sana
Ako na lang sana
Sana ako nalang hmmmmmmm

“Love On Top”
Bring the beat in!
Honey, honey
I can see the stars all the way from here
Can’t you see the glow on the window pane?
I can feel the sun whenever you’re near
Every time you touch me I just melt away
Now everybody asks me why I’m smiling out from ear to ear (They say love hurts)
But I know (It’s gonna take the real work)
Nothing’s perfect, but it’s worth it after fighting through my fears
And finally you put me first
Baby it’s you.
You’re the one I love.
You’re the one I need.
You’re the only one I see.
Come on baby it’s you.
You’re the one that gives your all.
You’re the one I can always call.
When I need you make everything stop.
Finally you put my love on top.
Oh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
You put my love on top.
Oh Oh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
My love on top.
My love on top.
Come on baby
I can hear the wind whipping past my face.
As we dance the night away.
Boy your lips taste like a night of champagne.
As I kiss you again, and again, and again and again.
Now everybody asks me why I’m smiling out from ear to ear (They say love hurts)
But I know (It’s gonna take the real work)
Nothing’s perfect, but it’s worth it after fighting through my fears.
And finally you put me first.
Baby it’s you.
You’re the one I love.
You’re the one I need.
You’re the only one I see.
Come on baby it’s you.
You’re the one that gives your all.
You’re the one I can always call.
When I need you make everything stop.
Finally you put my love on top.
Oh! Baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
You put my love on top.
Oh Oh! Come on baby.
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top.
My love on top.
Baby it’s you.
You’re the one I love.
You’re the one I need.
You’re the only thing I see.
Come on baby it’s you.
You’re the one that gives your all.
You’re the one I can always call.
When I need you baby everything stops.
Finally you put my love on top.
I can relate to this song right now… haha! And the combo of Simple Plan and Natasha Bedingfield is just awesome
“Jet Lag”
(feat. Natasha Bedingfield)
What time is it where you are?
I miss you more than anything
Back at home you feel so far
Waitin’ for the phone to ring
It’s gettin’ lonely livin’ upside down
I don’t even wanna be in this town
Tryin’ to figure out the time zones makin’ me crazy
[Chorus] You say good morning When it’s midnight Going out of my head Alone in this bed I wake up to your sunset It’s drivin me mad I miss you so bad and my heart heart heart is so jetlagged
What time is it where you are?
5 more days and I’ll be home
I keep your picture in my car
I hate the thought of you alone
I’ve been keepin’ busy all the time
Just to try to keep you off my mind
Tryin’ to figure out the time zones makin’ me crazy
You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart, heart heart is so Jetlagged
Heart heart heart is so Jetlagged
Heart heart heart is so Jetlagged
I miss you so bad [x5]
I wanna share your horizon
I miss you so bad
and see the same sunrising
I miss you so bad
Turn the hour hand back to when you were holding me.
You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss when you say good morning
But it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
And it’s drivin’ me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart heart heart is so Jetlagged
Heart heart heart is so Jetlagged
Heart heart heart is so Jetlagged
Is so Jetlagged
Is so Jetlagged
“Best Thing I Never Had” is the latest single from Beyonce’s fourth studio album… 4!! (Hindi pinag-isipan lol). They were saying that the new album is a lil bit boring, well, I kinda agree to that. It’s not as good as I Am Sasha Fierce or B’Day, but it’s still a good album.
But this single, Best Thing I Never Had, stands out in this album. It has a very nice tune, very easy to sing along with it. The lyrics is really something, every line is full of angst and confidence. Truly, I couldn’t stop listening to it over and over again!
“Best Thing I Never Had”
What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
What goes around comes back around (hey my baby)
There was a time
I thought, that you did everything right
No lies, no wrong
Boy I, must’ve been outta my mind
So when I think of the time that I almost loved you
You showed your ass and I saw the real you
Thank God you blew it
Thank God I dodged the bullet
I’m so over you
So baby good lookin’ out
[Chorus]
I wanted you bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
You turned out to be the best thing I never had
And I’m gon’ always be the best thing you never had
I bet it sucks to be you right now
So sad, you’re hurt
Boo hoo, oh, did you expect me to care?
You don’t deserve my tears
I guess that’s why they ain’t there
When I think that there was a time that I almost loved you
You showed your ass and baby yes I saw the real you
Thank God you blew it
Thank God I dodged the bullet
I’m so over you
Baby good lookin’ out
[Chorus]
I wanted you bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
I said, you turned out to be the best thing I never had
And I’ll never be the best thing you never had
Oh baby I bet sucks to be you right now
I know you want me back
It’s time to face the facts
That I’m the one that’s got away
Lord knows that it would take another place, another time, another world, another life
Thank God I found the good in goodbye
[Chorus]
I used to want you so bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
You turned out to be the best thing I never had
And I will always be the, best thing you never had.
Best thing you never had!
I used to want you so bad
I’m so through with that
Cause honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
Oh you turned out to be the best thing I never had
Oh I will never be the best thing you never had
Oh baby, I bet it sucks to be you right now
Goes around, comes back around
Goes around, comes back around
Bet it sucks to be you right now
Goes around, comes back around
Bet it sucks to be you right now
Goes around, comes back around
Bet it sucks to be you right now
Somewhere Only We Know (Natasha Bedingfield’s version)
I walked across an empty land I knew the pathway like the back of my hand I felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I’m getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you’re gonna let me in I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree I felt the branches of it looking at me Is this the place we used to love? Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I’m getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you’re gonna let me in I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don’t we go somewhere only we know? Somewhere only we know
Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I’m getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you’re gonna let me in I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don’t we go? So why don’t we go?
Oh, this could be the end of everything So why don’t we go somewhere only we know? Somewhere only we know Somewhere only we know
Everybody’s Changing
You say you wander your own land But when I think about it I don’t see how you can You’re aching, you’re breaking And I can see the pain in your eyes Says everybody’s changing And I don’t know why
So little time Try to understand that I’m Trying to make a move just to stay in the game I try to stay awake and remember my name But everybody’s changing And I don’t feel the same
You’re gone from here And soon you will disappear Fading into beautiful light Cause everybody’s changing And I don’t feel right
So little time Try to understand that I’m Trying to make a move just to stay in the game I try to stay awake and remember my name But everybody’s changing And I don’t feel the same
So little time Try to understand that I’m Trying to make a move just to stay in the game I try to stay awake and remember my name But everybody’s changing And I don’t feel the same
Last May 16, Maroon 5 performed once again in the stage of manila, and this time, I was there to experience it!
After spending so much on The Script’s concert a couple of months ago, I was really hesitant to watch Maroon 5. The ticket price are too expensive, and I was really on a tight budget that time. BUT it might be the last chance, it is a once in a lifetime chance, to hear them live, I don’t want to regret it. So, I really didn’t know what to do.
Then one afternoon, my friend, Edzcel, texted (or tweeted) me that there’s a 50% discount promo for M5 tickets, and a silver tix will only cost 1600+!! So we/he bought our tickets right away, and there, I’m watching the guys!
On the day of the concert, the weather was really bad. We thought that it’s a good thing that the venue is in SMX Convention Center, at least the threat of the rain will not ruin the event. HOWEVER, we found out that SMX is not a good venue either. There were huge concrete posts in the MIDDLE of the convention area, and the stage is too low that we were not able to see the band at all!! Thank God there were huge screens all over the place.. but still.
Anyway, despite the fact that we didn’t see Adam Levine and the rest of the guys, we still enjoyed that night! We were singing and dancing along the hit songs of the band, they even did a cover of an Alicia Keys song, and man, Adam Levine’s voice is just effin CRAZY!! UNBELIEVABLE. He’s just so energetic, and the voice is really awesooooome.
After that, we spent the rest of our night in a coffee shop, wherein my two friend drooled over this barista of SBC.
It was really a fun night, and I’m so happy that I experience the Maroon 5 Live! Now, all I have to mind is how I will pay for my debts. Haha!
I’ve always been very vocal that if ever The Script will visit the Philippines for a concert, I will definitely be there. I’ve been dreaming, and hoping that it will really happen very soon.
Since they released their sophomore album last year, my hopes intensified, for there is a possibility that the band might do some tours, and hopefully, stopped by here in country.
One evening, I was killing time in facebook, when I saw a post from ManilaConcertScene. A line from The Script song. I was so thrilled when I so that. I knew, one of my dreams will be a REALITY.

"Do you go there often?" "I used to go there when I wanted to escape."
Kelly looked at him, puzzled. "Escape from what?" He hesitated. "Loneliness. I felt less lonely
there."
He glanced at Kelly and smiled. "I haven't been there since I met you."
