Song of the month - The xx (Sunset)

"Sunset"

I saw you again, it felt like we had never met
It's like the sun set in your eyes and never wanted to rise
And what have you done with the one I love?
When I look into your eyes, I see no surprise

I always thought it was sad
The way we act like strangers
After all that we had
We act like we had never met

We make believe, I've never seen your face, you neither mine
And catch my eye, don't register a smile
You were more than just a friend, oh but the feeling
It never came to an end, I can't bear to see you

I always thought it was a shame
That we have to play these games
It felt like you really knew me
Now it feels like you see through me

When I see you again
I'll know not to expect
Stay one step away
We will have to wait

When I see you again
And I'm greeted as a friend
It is understood
That we did all we could

I always thought it was sad
The way we act like strangers
After all that we had
We act like we had never met

I always thought it was a shame
That we have to play these games
It felt like you really knew me
Now it feels like you see through me
- A - Z Lyrics.


The part which always gets me:
I always thought it was a shame
That we have to play these games
It felt like you really knew me
Now it feels like you see through me

Cadeaux:
My love for adverts caused me to find this Song today. From the Nissan Leap advert

 Favourite song for last year Funeral - Band of Horses. I can recall in one of these instances I found my self playing this song from my iPod in a Funeral, that was how addictive the song was. I'm also planing to do a cover for Miike's snow Black tin box featuring Lykke Lee :)


Happy New year!

We Fell To Earth - The Double

Lyrics:
i don't care what u said so long ago
the double and the same one
it don't move what the .. save anyone
..
i can't tell if the thoughts mean anything
u don't ever say why
no offense ..
the double and the same one..
same sign.. same sign.. same sign.. same sign..

i don't care what u did so long ago
the double and the same one
it don't move when the thought fell anyone
it shook and it can't stay right
you never look what u say and u mean
u only look and u see what's in the mirror
u never look at what u see in a mirror
u wanna look at what u see under a mirror
same sign.. same sign.. same sign.. same sign..

I fell in Love with the song. I mean I think it's music!

The Proof of Your Love

"The Proof Of Your Love" - Lyrics

If  I sing but don't have love
I waste my breath with every song
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise
If I speak with a silver tongue
Convince a crowd but don't have love
I leave a bitter taste with every word I say

So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

If I give
To a needy soul but don't have love then who is poor?
It seems all the poverty is found in me

So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
Oh, let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

When it's all said and done
When we sing our final song
Only love remains
Only love remains

Let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love.

Something is right about the song. The lyrics, the music, may be everything

For King and Country - album crave.

Certain things are just Compatible in Life

I first listen to this music about 2 days ago and I instantly fell in love with it. The song had been cropped from the Roomate by Absalom Shu. It was anoying that  a nice song plays and finishes prematurely. So, we set out yesterday to find the song and behold, 15mins later we got it.
The song is featuring in my all times favorite. It's new each time I listen.
It's strange for it to enter into my all time favorite. I noticed in Life certain things are just compatible. It reminds me of the things that happen beyond our 5 senses. I'm compatible to this song, I mean all of it :).
Repeat, repeat, repeat....

~Lyrics~

The end begins just as it starts,
And leaves me wondering what we left behind.
Told me not to talk but please explain
My thoughts that float around my mind

So take a step back will you
Be alright, feel alright?

And now...

All this time when we walk we won't feel,
Put some time in a box it won't steal you

(Oooohhh)

Up ahead I see it I can find it, but I feel alive.
Followed me inside of a place
I felt like things would still be alright

And now...

All this time when we walk we won't feel
Put some time in a box it can steal you
All this time when I talk its not real, its not real, not real, not real, its not real

(Oooohhh)

All this time when we walk we won't feel
Put some time in a box it wont steal you
All this time when I walk, I wont feel, I wont feel
All this time when I talk its not real, its not real, not real, not real, its not real...

All this time when I talk its not real, its not real, its not real.

Great Northern - Houses and ME are compatible.

I Will Always Love You

I had a premonition yesterday. I told Quincy and some friends I was hanging out with that: "Someone I know or Someone connected to me is about to die". Well, I'm not sure it was about this death, except part of me was actually deep rooted in the singer's songs of which I did pay less attention to this connection till now?!. This morning getting up at 7:00am I learn from It's Quincy and Facebook that the Legendary singer Whitney Houston is dead, today 12th, February, 2012 at 3:00am at 48.

Remember One of my life decisions this year is to take a shock without expressing it in sadness emoticon. I should have made a sadness emoticon blog post for her death.
I will remember you for:

1. The lives you touched.
2. The light you put in people even when you were stumbling into darkness.
3. For the courage you instill in me and as I grew up to understood the greatest love of all.
4. I learning first from you that there is Greatness in Every being.
5. For your beautiful and peaceful voice, very great energy.
6. For the song that touch me more as I grew up as a child, till moment and forever:
7. For the song I heard more by you played by those around me:

Thank you for the life you lived: I Will Always Love You! R.I.P.

Who broke the replay button in 2011

I did not listen to music this year as I used to between 2006 -2010.
I compiled a list of the songs I played more this year, not necessarily songs made this year.
I had to do this list before the 1st but has been putting it off. Thanks to the group, I did it today :). 
In any other,  Enjoy!

                           

                            

Someone asked me: "How many hearts Adele has, because she always sings about broken heart" . I could not answer. May be some people are blessed with many hearts :).

People who slightly missed the above list:

Favorite Band I knew this year goes to :
The perishers.
Writing this post and still trying to break the replay button for Augustana :)
