All I Ask (Adele Cover)

Just One Yesterday - Fall Out Boy

 

Just one yesterday

I thought of angels

Choking on their halos

Get them drunk on rose water

See how dirty I can get them

Pulling out their fragile teeth

And clip their tiny wings

Anything you say can and will be held against you

So only say my name

It will be held against you

If heaven's grief brings hell's rain

Then I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday

(I know I'm bad news, I saved it all for you)

For just one yesterday

I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way

Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday

(I know I'm bad news, I saved it all for you)

For just one yesterday

Letting people down is my thing baby

Find yourself a new gig

This town ain't big enough for two of us

I don't have the right name
Or the right looks

But I have twice the heart

If I spilled my guts

The world would never look at you the same way

I'm here to give you all of my love

So I can watch your face as I take it all away

All of Me by John Legend

This has been my song for almost a week now. This song just turned out to be my current favorite. The lyrics and melody just captured every part of me... This just perfectly describes how I feel about my husband. It's so good I had to download it on my iPod and play it on repeat...


"You're crazy and I'm out of my mind"... this line just says so much about how we are when were together. We're both crazy in so many ways that we always find and learn something new about each other.

'Cause all of me, loves all of you. Love your curves and all your edges, all your perfect imperfections"... We embrace each others differences and turn it into something beautiful. We have our own unique qualities and flaws but those never hinder us from accepting and being happy with each other. It's like when you sum all the imperfections up, we fit together like a puzzle.



I have posted the video and the lyrics so you guys can enjoy it as much as I do...

"All Of Me"
[Verse 1:]
What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You've got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

[Verse 2:]
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you

[Pre-Chorus:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

[Bridge:]
Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you

I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Pandesal Sa Umaga

Another brilliant Armi Millare cover. Why is she so god damn good?!!! Anyway, this has been playing repeatedly on my iPod for weeks now... Hope you guys like it as much as I do...

An Attempt To Measure HAPPINESS by Armi Millare

This is just so good and to not share it with you guys would be a mistake... Take time to listen to those whole three minutes and 12 seconds, It gives such an indescribable feeling, I actually felt all emotions burst at once...the melody would let your fingers hit on replay for as many times as possible. Armi is an amazing musician to be able to touch the hearts of many by just playing her keyboard... BEAUTIFUL!

Feelings...

This is my current favorite from Up Dharma Down's newest album Capacities which I have uploaded on my soundcloud account where you can also follow me, if you are in any way intrigued of the type of music I listen to... I haven't uploaded much but you'll see there a number of my favorites. And as usual I have included the lyrics of the song so you can listen while you read. Enjoy!

FEELINGS

Breaking through the night 

In this cold farenheit 

Shadows have left 

Crying got old 

Bland and bittersweet 

Wondering what went wrong 

There goes all hope 

There goes all hope 

But the feeling 

It tries to escape 

Bleeds through the light even when I close my eyes 

Its not seething 

The weight on this shoulder 

I can’t wait to chase the fiction home 

And carry on 

Favors in reverse 

Songs are unrehearsed 

When I get through this 

I hope I get through you 

Stains on my mind 

The cloud on that hour 

The minute you closed the door 

My eyes washed the floor 

Baby baby its hard to say 

But there seems to be no other way 

You left and you were right 

So I have to let us down this time 

Cause I can 

Cause I can’t feel it 

No other way but down 

No other way but down 

You said so yourself 

It’s just 

It’s just a feeling 

It’s just a feeling 

What are you crying for 

What are you crying for 

When its just a feeling 

God knows you can get through this 

I wanna know 

Do you feel anything 

As you go on your way 

Driving home 

As I sleep alone tonight 

I wanna know 

Do you feel anything 

For me 

Before I go 

Before I go, forever

Capacities: PRE-ORDER EXTENDED!

So much for the CYBERCRIME LAW... Let us make way for good vibes and good news... Up Dharma Down has extended their Pre-Ordering of the limited edition package of their upcoming third album (then again the dates they have I am not available, just my luck!). If you can remember on my last post it was September 28-29, 2012. Now, they have updated the dates the first one was yesterday October 3, 2012 and the last date will be on October 20, 2012 this would be for those people in the metro or nearby. For those who are in the south they are still taking efforts to do so since they are going to be in Cebu on the 12th and Davao on the 19th of this month. Then for the fans from different provinces and overseas they are also thinking of the possibility to have you order online and pay through Paypal but that is if you are intending to watch the actual launch in November at One Esplanade. For now, stay tuned when these are going to take effect. 

Capacities: Launch

And I thought I could get through the pre-order process that easy... Sadly, I am not available on these dates. I guess I just have to wait until the album has been fully launched and available in the market... :( So, to all of you who have the luxury of time please do grab a copy. There are a bunch of freebies included in the pre-oder package. 

Capacities Update: Up Dharma Down

This song right here I think is part of the soon-to-be-released-album of Up Dharma Down. I was actually looking for the lyrics of this song in google but I'm glad I was able to get a copy from their tumblr account. A big T.H.A.N.K.S. to whoever posted it.

Can't really explain the feeling right now, I am excited and anxious about this. I have read in their tumblr account that UDD is about to release their new album #Capacities this November 2012 and I really can't wait. I've also seen on their website that they are going to do a pre-oder basis spiced up with freebies which makes me more excited. I would really love to get a copy as soon as they have posted that fans can already order... :))

Thinker

Thought it out
And I am convinced
There is no difference
In our differences

Don’t care what you want
And I’m unnerved
The care that I need
is what you say you deserved

When I try to say goodbye
You stop me on my feet
It pushed me up to lead the way
And there you go leaving
While I stayed down believing

Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Does this free your mind

Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Did I free your mind

The sweetest beginings
Now on the edge of pretensions
Oh I believe you when you say
You’ve got the cleanest intensions

No I’m not looking for love
It’s not like I’m gonna find it
Tremendous steps and it figures
And you expect me to just stay behind it all

There’s a love in your mercy and prayer
It’s all that I need
I’ve given you everything for you to fiddle me dry
No need to try too hard every time I

Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Just as free, your mind

Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Free your mind you say
Are you liberated?

You can do anything you want now
Enjoy yourself, yeah
Enjoy yourself, you’re on your own now
You’re on your own now

Kz Cover

Currently on my playlist... a cover by KZ...

The Lass (KZ Tandingan)

Kristine Zhenie "KZ" Tandingan is originally from Digos, Davao del Sur. She auditioned, "Wowed" the judges, got Gary V. into his feet and started dancing, got a standing ovation and got four yeses in X-factor Philippines. Aside from her pretty face and curly hair which by the way I so love the lass has got very pure talent. Her genre goes into like a fusion of Jazz, Reggae and Ska and so far she is one of the greatest contender in X-Factor Philippines. Let us all support artist like her.

I have here to share her own version of Somewhere over the rainbow which she also used as her audition piece in X-Factor. I hope you guys enjoy....

Waiting for a Sign

Finally after waiting for months, the full track of the song waiting for a sign by Armi Millare is here... and I would love to share it with you guys... and for you to enjoy it more I have posted the lyrics below... ENJOY!

WAITING FOR A SIGN

And I’ll hold my breath

just until the train stops

Then I’ll count to ten

Maybe I’ll see raindrops

As I’m waiting for a sign

The cat wakes me up

A minute before the alarm goes

I can tell myself

Won’t need him to say so

just Waiting for a sign

Lean on to me don’t ever

Look back again no never

Cos I am waiting forever

This is more than a sign

I am here and you’re mine

If he takes me out

And we talk til midnight

And he holds my hand

Til then I’ll just sit tight

Just waiting for a sign

Walk Off The Earth - Somebody that I used to know (cover)

This is another one of my favorites from Gotye. The video is cool. This band just pulled it off. The way they were able to cover the song using just one guitar is really awesome. Check this band out they are so cool!

Walk Off The Earth (Gianni and Sarah)

This is such a cool video. They covered one of my favorite songs of Radiohead and how they used all the instruments is just amazing. These guys rock. Their original songs are cool too just like their videos and the songs they cover.

You guys can subscribe to their channel or download some of their songs and stuff here.

Soulmate...

I married my soulmate. I know you're asking how did I know that he is the one, I don't really know how but you'll just know. It's like tiring yourself chasing a thousand fireflies in the middle of the night and ironically, when you lie down in your bed there's this single firefly lighting up you room. I remember when I was in college two of my friends have a guy friend Niño and every time I hear that name there is something in me that lights up. I don't really know why but it just happens every time. I even told myself one day I'll find my own Niño and I did. God really took time to have our paths meet. There are so many people in the whole world and yet we both found our way to be together. I was able to find a song about a soulmate and I think everyone can relate to it. And who doesn't want someone to love them the way they wanted to be loved. But then again it really is hard to find someone who can lift you up without a pulling a string. You know that feeling when you see his face everything just seem to be fine.

Somebody That I used to Know

Currently on repeat. This song I dedicate to broken hearted people out there...

Sign Seeker

I think everyone of us did become a sign seeker once upon a time... I myself  is a certified one and I guess everyone else's are (well, not everyone but most of the girls are.). I used to ask God for freaking impossible signs that somehow came true for whatever miracle that happened. And it came clear to me that I really have to let go of that sickening bad habit, that God has better plans for me.

It was a very sunny day, in fact even PAG-ASA forecasted that there'll be no chances of raining that day. So, yours truly with the fact that I am in a failing relationship asked God for a sign. Since it was a sunny day I thought of asking God to rain hard at exactly twelve noon and if it did I would let him go. I crossed my fingers in the hope that it wouldn't rain and to my dismay it did! (poor me...) But that incident didn't quite stop me it actually ended up me asking for another sign. That same day I told God that if I see a white rose I promise to let him go. I was so brave to say it because in our place it's really impossible to see a white rose because nobody in our neighborhood do plant roses, you would only see one unless somebody did buy you one. So, i waited until nightfall. I got bored from anticipating I turned on the television and watch the movie that was being played by a network that time. The scene was a guy was trying to make it up to her girlfriend and was trying to surprise her. A waiter came out with a covered dish and he was walking to the girl's direction and when finally he was there in front of the girl the waiter took off the dish cover and to my surprise it was a WHITE ROSE! and I can't say anything but Oh My God! A white rose. I don't really know what to feel but I know in my heart that it's something I am confused of continuing or not but which I am afraid to end.

That night I really thought it over and all I could remember was getting hurt and crying myself to sleep almost every night. There were really no good memories. All were just tears and heartaches and that's really when I decided to listen to God and let go.

Here's a song which I guess everyone can relate to especially to sign seekers like me. This was a one of the soundtrack from a short film anthology of Kasambuhay, Habambuhay entitled Sign Seeker. This is just the teaser of the great song of a great artist Armi Millare and I still am waiting for the full track, hope it comes out soon. Enjoy!

Anino

This is a very early rare find from once again the person I adore so much in the whole world.... Armi Millare...
The words just moves me in every way probably because I have experienced the same thing in the past but anyway the song is really good and it would be on repeat starting now... :) Good morning everyone!

Summer is here...

I know this is sooooo 2008 but who the hell cares, it's still one of my favorites... and since summer is almost here I wanna share with you a very warm and fun song from one of the local bands here in our country I adore so much, Up Dharma Down. 

Here's the lyrics to make you guys enjoy it more...

Unusual yet so familiar

Surprising face I've never seen such glow

There is not one minute of refraction

You are my positive distraction

Level headedness versus heady bliss

What would you choose

Unbelievably, this feels so good to me

I've given myself away now

Taking leaps, clouds at my feet

Love makes you try anything once

Hues are better understood

But this is just a little too good

I am left believing, I thank you now for giving

Me the stars to chase around

There's no going back

I've fallen pretty bad

This is the sound of being found

Taking leaps clouds at my feet

Love makes you try anything once

You and I float away

Tracing the seas...

B is for Bob

“Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.”

― Bob Marley


HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB MARLEY! THANK YOU FOR KEEPING ME SANE... ALL MY LOVE TO REGGAE MUSIC... <3
