To Whom It May Concern by Creed

Creed was one of my favorite rock bands during college. I didn't realize that many don't like them that much, but I gained an appreciation of their music. I tried to learn Mark Tremonti's guitar parts when I was learning to play the guitar during those times, and spent a lot of time memorizing them. Once I had them down to pat, I'll play them over and over again. I had fun doing that. 

This song appears in the Scorpion King movie, a spin-off of the successful The Mummy movie adventure series, which I bought back then primarily because of the Godsmack song. I'll write about that in another entry.

I've always thought I've already put this song in the blog. There's a good reason why I have been calling this song "Your Eyes" for a long time. 


Oh, I didn't mean to yell 
But sometimes I get beside myself 
And oh, I didn't mean to rush you
But time keeps pushing so much
 Oh, time keeps pushing so much

Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes 
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom 

Oh, If I didn't give it all 
When I stood you made me crawl 
And oh, if you never heard the song 
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Then I could still hide down behind the wall

Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
And I hope those eyes 
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom

Said eyes, those eyes
 I said don't steal my freedom 

Your eyes stare at me in the dark 
And I hope those eyes 
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom Oh, my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom Oh, my freedom 
Said eyes, those eyes 
Said eyes, those eyes 
I said don't steal my freedom

Sumthin' Sumthin' by Maxwell

One of my favorite songs during high school. I like how it doesn't sound dated at all. Those are the best kind of songs.

When I started collecting for CDs these is one of the albums that I had trouble of hunting down. I saw a very good copy in Greenhills and didn't think twice if I should buy it or not.




If it's cool
We can do a little sumthin' sumthin'
Let me groove with you
So we can kick a little sumthin' sumthin'

Even though she pays me no attention
All I wanna show is my affection
Lose myself inside her ebony
But she ain't even checkin' me, oh yea

If it's cool
We can do a little sumthin' sumthin'
Let me groove with you
So we can kick a little sumthin' sumthin'

Honeydosugachoco dumplin' yeah
Sista with a certain sumthin' sumthin'
Flavor with a cocoa kinda flow
Baby, baby act like you know

So if it's cool, I wanna rock with you
Slip you my mellow smooth
Rock you until we're blue
Only, only if it's cool

If it's cool
We can do a little sumthin' sumthin'
Let me groove with you
So we can kick a little sumthin' sumthin'

So if it's cool, I wanna rock with you
Slip you my mellow smooth
Rock you until we're blue
Only, only if it's cool

If it's cool
We can do a little sumthin' sumthin'
Let me groove with you
So we can kick a little sumthin' sumthin'

If it's cool
We can do a little sumthin' sumthin'
Let me groove with you
So we can kick a little sumthin' sumthin'
