Stateline by Butch Walker

What i really love about Butch Walker's "Letters" album, is that it actually feels like one, a series of letters, a sort of confession to the listening fans, most of which could feel the same heartfelt emotion he feels while singing his songs.

A bonus track from the said album, Stateline is the perferct encore. I would suggest you listen to the song and you'll get what i mean.



Seven Hours till the moon sleeps
I Lose my mind as I drive away
Your Cigarettes are in the back seat
I cant bring myself to throw away

All of the film in the camera that took
all the pictures of the images in my mind

So I'll drive a straight line
Right across the state line
Out on to the ocean, in a moment I'll be gone
Then you wont have to feel torn

Pass the churches filled with guilted faith
They send there hangovers from last night
Wont do me any good to pray, cause even god knows
that you were right

And I was wrong and yeah it kills me
that my kid will never know me, with another man by his side

So I'll drive a straight line
When I cross the state line
Out on to the ocean, in a moment I'll be gone
Then you wont have to feel torn

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

So I'll drive a straight line
When I cross the state line
Out on to the ocean, in a moment I'll be gone

So I'll drive a straight line
When I cross the state line
Out on to the ocean, in a moment I'll be gone

You wont have to feel torn
Have to feel torn

Thinking of you with my last breathe

The Most Beautiful Girl in the World by Prince

I'm addicted to Prince as of late and this song rocks in a different way. Probably the best compliment you could give to a girl. I never really gave a damn about this song before, but man, you could tell Prince was really smooth with the girls. I like the part wherein he goes from falseto to a really deep voice. Cool!


Could U be the most beautiful girl in the world?
It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl

When the day turns into the last day of all time
I can say I hope U are in these arms of mine
And when the night falls before that day I will cry
I will cry tears of joy cuz after U all one can do is die, oh

Could U be the most beautiful girl in the world?
Could U be?
It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl
Oh, yes U are

How can I get through days when I can't get through hours?
I can try but when I do I see U and I'm devoured, oh yes
Who'd allow, who'd allow a face 2 be soft as a flower? Oh
I could bow (bow down) and feel proud in the light of this power
Oh yes, oh

Could U be (could U be) the most beautiful girl in the world?
Could U be?
It's plain 2 see U're the reason that God made a girl
Oh, yes U are

And if the stars ever fell one by one from the sky
I know Mars could not be, uh, 2 far behind
Cuz baby, this kind of beauty has got no reason 2 ever be shy
Cuz honey, this kind of beauty is the kind that comes from inside

Could U be (could U be) the most beautiful girl in the world?
So beautiful, beautiful
It's plain 2 see (plain 2 see) U're the reason that God made a girl

Oh yeah! (Oh, yes U are)
Girl (Could U be?)
U must be... oh yeah!
(Could U be?)
U're the reason... oh yeah
(Could)

Fantasy by Mariah Carey

I remember this song, 3rd year High School i think. My brother came home with a Mariah Carey cassette and i tried to listen to it. This is the song that made an instant impression, probably as i was mostly into MTV and hip-hop then. A classic by my lowly standards. Just bought a copy of the daydream CD too for a measly 100 pesos. cool huh?




(Shoe do do do do do do do)
(Shoe do do do do do do yeah)

Oh, when you walk by every night
Talking sweet and looking fine
I get kinda hectic inside
Mmm, baby I'm so into you
Darling, if you only knew
All the things that flow through my mind

(But it's just a) sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
When I close my eyes
You come and you take me
(On and on and on)
So deep in my daydreams
But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby

(Shoe do do do do do do do)
(Shoe do do do do do do yeah)


Images of rapture
Creep into me slowly
As you're going to my head
And my heart beats faster
When you take me over
Time and time and time again

(But it's just a) sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
When I close my eyes
You come and you take me
(On and on and on)
So deep in my daydreams
But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby

(Shoe do do do do do do do)
(Shoe do do do do do do yeah)

(It's just a) sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
When I close my eyes
You come and you take me
(On and on and on)
So deep in my daydreams
But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby

I'm in heaven
With my boyfriend
My laughing boyfriend
There's no beginning
And there is no end
Feels like I'm dreaming
But I'm not sleeping

(It's just a) sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
When I close my eyes
You come and you take me
(On and on and on)
So deep in my daydreams
But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby

Sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
When I close my eyes
You come and you take me
(On and on and on)
So deep in my daydreams
But it's just a sweet, sweet fantasy, baby

Sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
Sweet, sweet fantasy, baby
(Shoe do do do do do do do)
