Somewhere in the Middle by Nine Sky Wonder

What makes this song cool is that you're going to like this song on the basis of it being a well written and well made song. Practically no one knows who Nine Sky Wonder is. A search in google would just point you to this same song. The bass on this song was played by legendary session bassist Leland "Lee" Sklar.


Hey there beautiful
I can't help but look
Your way
Hey let's take it slow
I'm not one to go
Too fast

I'm drawn to your innocence
I'm drawn

Every time you look at me and smile
I fall in just a little
I can't tell between my heart and mind
I'm somewhere in the middle

You make everything so enchanting
Like a fairy tale
I guess I should say
I am so afraid of this

I'm scared of letting go
Don't wanna be alone

Every time you look at me and smile
I fall in just a little
I can't tell between my heart and mind
I'm somewhere in the middle

In my dreams
In my prayers
In my soul
Wish that I had more control
I don't think I'm ready yet
Everytime I take a step
Wanting more to be with you
I'm drawn to you

Every time you look at me and smile
I fall in just a little
I can't tell between my heart and mind
I'm somewhere in the middle

Walang Kapalit by Peryodiko

This song is best heard and seen live. Seeing and hearing Kakoi Legazpi have total control of the guitar is just a sight to be hold, Vin Dancel ain't a bad vocalist and front man either, while the rhythm section holds it tight.

Ang galing talaga, especially the screaming guitars at the ending.




Wag na malungkot..hindi naman kailangan na ganito..
Ang lahat ay may hangganan..nakatali sa pinagmulan

Ang pait ng ngayon ay bahagi ng kaligayahan ng kahapon..
Wag kalimutan mga masayang sandali..

Wag mag-alala kung ang iba'y nananatili sa nakaraan..
At ang iba’y aalis dahil sa kasalukuyan..
Pag-ibig ay duyan, at madalas pag-tuonan ang pait lang ng ngayon..
Di na nabibilang, napag-iisipan mga masayang sandali ng kahapon

Ito na ang huli..
At di mo na mababawi..
Pilitin man ay di na kayang pigilin ang ihip ng hangin..
Ito man ang huling gabing ng ating pagsasama..
Ang bukas ay nag-aabang na...

Napapangiti ka pa ba ng ulan?...
May pangarap bang walang dahilan?..

Ito na ang huli..
At di mo na mababawi..
Pilitin man ay di na kayang pigilin ang ihip ng hangin..
Ito man ang huling gabing ating pagsasama..
Ang bukas ay nag-aabang na...

Masaya by Bamboo

Somehow this song explains how I feel, May 2 - May 9, I'll try to move on na lang




Ako'y malungkot na naman,
Amoy chico na ako
Ilang tagay na hindi pa rin tulog
Tanong ko lang sa langit kung bakit pumangit
Ang dating masaya ngayon panay problema
Bumabalot sa mundo
Bakit ganito ang pag-ibig
Ganyan talaga,
Pag bago kang pag-ibig
Ganyan talaga masaya

Pag ka gising ko,
Nakita ko si Juan
Na syang adik sa aming lugar
Parang droga daw ang bisa na
Ginamit nya kanina
Sa una rang daw masarap
Ang pagibig
Ganyan talaga
Ako'y nilamon ng pag-ibig
Ganyan talaga
Masaya

Ang pag-ibig
Ganyan talaga
Ako'y nilamon na ng pag-ibig
Ganyan talaga masaya

Underneath It All by No Doubt

This is really the song that made me a fan of No Doubt's music and it help me in better appreciation of the reggae groove.




There's times where I want something more
Someone more like me
There's times when this dress rehearsal
Seems incomplete
But, you see the colors in me like no one else
And behind your dark glasses you're...
You're something else

You're really lovely
Underneath it all
You want to love me
Underneath it all
I'm really lucky
Underneath it all
You're really lovely

You know some real bad tricks
And you need some discipline
But, lately you've been trying real hard
And giving me your best
And, you give me the most gorgeous sleep
That I've ever had
And when it's really bad
I guess it's not that bad

You're really lovely
Underneath it all
You want to love me
Underneath it all
I'm really lucky
Underneath it all
You're really lovely

So many moons that we have seen
Stumbling back next to me
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better
Better... better...

Lady Saw:
You are my real Prince Charmin'
Like the heat from the fire
You were always burnin'
And each time you're around
My body keeps stalin'
For your touch
Your kisses and your sweet romancin'
There's an underside to you
That so many adore
Aside from your temper
Everything else secure
You're good for me, baby
Oh that, I'm sure
Over and over again
I want more

Gwen:
You've used up all your coupons
And all you've got left is me
And somehow I'm full of forgiveness
I guess it's meant to be

You're really lovely
Underneath it all
You want to love me
Underneath it all
I'm really lucky
Underneath it all
You're really lovely

You're really lovely
Underneath it all
You want to love me
Underneath it all
I'm really lovely
Underneath it all
And you're really lovely

Married With Children by Oasis

I really can't decide on which Oasis album would be the best for me. This song helps the case for the debut album, Definitely Maybe. It just sounds special, a song that would stand the test of time, without being too-Oasis for some unlike the main stream songs from the (What's the Story?) Morning Glory and Be Here Now album.



There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye I'm going home

I hate the way that even though you
Know you're wrong you say you're right
I hate the books you read and all your friends
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night

There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye I'm going home

I hate the way that you are so sarcastic
And you're not very bright
You think that everything you've done's fantastic
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night

And it will be nice to be alone
For a week or two
But I know that I will be
Right back here with you

There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye I'm going home

I hate the way that even though you
Know you're wrong you say you're right
I hate the books you read and all your friends
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night

Talk Shows on Mute by Incubus

To be honest, I feel that I haven't written about a lot of Incubus. I have a feeling that I shouldn't talk about this band that much and much of their songs, I just don't know why.

This band has never failed me with all of their releases. I'm not much of an Incubus addict compared to when I was still in college, but I still regard them as one of the best bands out there in terms of lyrics and sonic territory.

Talk Shows on Mute is one of the radio-ready songs in the A Crow Left of The Murder album. I like the synth-like part at the start of the song that follows the guitar. Just overall a solid song that I would listen to at days when I don't feel good about myself.


Take a bow, pack on powder,
Wash 'em out with buzzing lights,
Pay an audience to care,
'Impress me' personality.

Still and transfixed,
The electric sheep are dreaming of your face.
Enjoy you from the chemical,
Comfort of America.

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eighty-four
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, Camera, Transaction

Quick, your time is almost up.
Make all forget that they're the moth,
Edging in towards the flame,
Burn into obscurity.

Still and transfixed,
The electric sheep are dreaming up your fate.
And judge you from the card castle,
Comfort of America.

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eighty-four
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, Camera... yeah.

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eighty-four
Yeah, three, two one
Lights, Camera, Transaction

Lights, Camera, Transaction

Come one, come all
Into nineteen-eighty-four
Yeah, three, two, one
Lights, Camera, Transaction

Your foundation is canyoning,
Fault lines should be worn with pride.
I hate to say you're so much more.
You're so much more
Endearing with the sound turned off.

Best Thing You Never Had by Butch Walker

Aside from being a heart-on-sleeves lyrics, I just love the instrumentation for this song. Leave it to Butch Walker to write such classics. I always almost cry whenever I hear this song. I can really relate to the frustration.


Hello how you doing?
What's it like to ruin
All my self esteem
, let me blow off some steam
For 5 years I've waited,
So why am I jaded
To get back at you

What makes it cool

When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had

And it seems like a loss somehow
My heart got lost on
The weight of my head

And my brain cells are dead
And the craziness shows
Now I start to go when
The green turns to red

And I should be dead

When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad
But I can't like someone who thought they're
the only one that mattered

While my heart got shattered
Like romantic roadkill

My heart is all splattered
Your ego got fatter

And I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
The best thing that you never had

Like the toilet seat never got lifted
And I pissed on your confidence
When you weren't around,
how can that be?

Don't turn this around
You were the one
Who drove my ass right to the ground

When you act like nothing ever happened
I feel like I should feel bad,
And I can't like

Someone who thought
They're the only one that mattered
While my heart got shattered
Like romantic roadkill

My heart is all splattered
Your ego got fatter

And I hope that you're flattered
Cause you broke this down
You broke this down

The best thing, the best thing,
The best thing that you never had
You never had...

Intuition by Natalie Imbruglia

There are a few songs that are more famous than Intuition from Natalie Imbruglia's debut album, but I'm choosing this as when I recently listened to album again after missing on it for a few years... this is the song that i felt good about.

Awesome song, cute girl with a decent voice, great backing band. What else can you ask for?


Everybody's been in my face
Tellin' me I gotta make a change
All I ever hear day and night is
"You better hurry up and get a life"
I need some direction
'Cause the clock is tickin' away
Then a friend of a friend of mine
Says I've really been on his mind
And wants to go out and
check out what the feelin's about
Says we have a deep connection
Well it sure is news to me
And all I can say is

Intuition tells me how to live my day
Intuition tells me when to walk away
Could have turned left
Could have turned right
But I ended up here
Bang in the middle of real life

Then another one always says
she'd do anything to get ahead
She doesn't care if she has to scratch and
claw to get in the door
She wants her 15 minutes of fame and
20 would be nice
But I guess it's her life

'Cause Intuition tells me that I'm doin' fine
Intuition tells me when to draw the line
Could have turned left
Could have turned right
But I ended up here
Bang in the middle of real life
Should have turned left
But I turned right
But I ended up here
And I feel alright

You make it hard for me
Can't find the real you
You really think I can't see
What is that you're trying to do

Do Do Do Do Da Da Da Na Na Na ...

Intuition tells me how to live my day
Intuition tells me when to walk away
Could have turned left
Could have turned right
But I ended up here
Bang in the middle of real life
Should have turned left
But I turned right
But I ended up here
And I feel alright
I feel alright
I feel alright
I feel alright
I feel alright
I feel alright
YES ! I feel alright

Note: I remembered that i wrote a "love" letter before while listening to this album early morning before going to school. I was sick that way.

Out of Control by U2

I got to listen to my brother's copy of U2's Sweetest Thing single, which I now own after buying his whole cd collection from him, and was surprised to hear 2 U2 songs both of which I found fascinating. I asked myself, are these unreleased U2 songs recorded live?!? I did a little researched and found out that these are songs from U2's Boy album, one of their earlier albums. I asked myself why didn't i notice these songs, having listened to the said album a week ago. The truth is there's NOT really a big difference in the studio version and the live one, except for the fact that U2 is best seen and heard live as proven by their concerts! I wish I can see them live, even only for a 5-song set.


Monday morning
Eighteen years of dawning
I say how long?
Say how long?

It was one dull morning
Woke the world with falling
I was so sad, so sad
They were so bad, so bad

I had the feeling it was out of control
I was of the opinion it was out of control

Boys and Girls
Go to the school and girls
They make children
Not like this one

I had the feeling it was out of control
I was of the opinion it was out of control

I was of a feeling it was out of control
I had the opinion it was out of control

Out of control...out of control...out of control...out of control...out of
control...

I fought fate
There's blood on the garden gate
The man said childhood
It's in his childhood

One day I'll die
The choice will not be mine
Will it be too late?
You can't fight fate

I was of a feeling it was out of control

Love Song for No One by John Mayer

I only started to appreciate this song when it was suggested by my officemate/bandmate Jonray as something that we can cover. This song officially made me think that John Mayer really does write some awesome songs that hits you on a deeper level. It doesn't hurt either that the basslines were played by equally awesome musician David "DeLa" LaBruyere.

This has also been one of my favorite songs to play with the band.



Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back
On old love
Or lack thereof
After all the crushes are faded
And all my wishful thinking was wrong
I'm jaded
I hate it

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
Get here

Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it
When I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here

I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?
Oh no way

I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away?

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here oh yeah

I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
I'm so tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here

You'll be so good
You'll be so good for me

My Hero by Foo Fighters

There are only a few bands that captured my heart during my high school years, Oasis and Foo Fighters are the one's that really standout. I advidly collected Oasis and FF albums since HS.

I was recently able to see Foo Fighter's VH1 Storyteller's gig were they did a somewhat acoustic version of this song. I enjoyed though is Dave Grohl's incite about this song, which was inspired by "ordinary" friends in his life, but are people who he really looks up to.




Too alarming now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He’s ordinary

Don’t the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them peter out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He’s ordinary

Kudos my hero leaving all the best
You know my hero, the one that’s on

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He’s ordinary

There goes my hero
Watch him as he goes
There goes my hero
He's ordinary

Nasilayan by KJWAN

To be honest I didn't expect to really enjoy KJWAN's album. I know for a fact that they're a rock group on the basis of the self-titled debut album (they were bad ass with Daliri), but I just didn't expect this maturity for them. I was totally surprised with how great this album is, it probably is one of the best pinoy albums I've recently listened to.

Nasilayan is one of the songs that I truly connected with. This is the type of the song which can help me survive days I really dread.


Wag mo nang ituro ang iba

Kumpas ng panahon, puno ng sakuna
Bakit ang daming nanganganib?
Ang mundo ay nagalit nanaman
Wala siya sa'ting alaala

Nasilayan ang hirap ng mundo
Nasa'yo susi ng pagbabago
'Di alam kung sa'n sisimulan?
Umpisahan mo sa sarili mo

Gera sa Timog, walang katapusan
Sanhi kulturang magkaiba
Kelangan lang ng pakikiisa
Pantay ang tungo sa isa't isa

Lumiyab ka’t silawin ang mundo
Nasa'yo susi ng pagbabago
'Di alam kung sa'n sisimulan?
Umpisahan mo sa sarili mo

'Wag mo nang ituro sa iba

Perpekto by Dong Abay

Dong Abay (Yano) did some good work on this song. And to think about it that Raimund Marasigan and Buddy Zabala did the rhythm section work for this album, makes the Filipino album, a sort-of OPM super group

I just love Dong Abay's lyrics. Touching, simple and straightforward.



Ikaw ay nagdaramdam
Puso ay nagdurugo
Hindi mo yata alam, kung san ka patungo


Ikaw ay naliligaw
Isip ay nalilito
Ayaw mo ng gumalaw
Hindi ka sigurado

Ikaw ay napupuwing
Minsan nabubulagan
Mata ay nakapiring
Daan ay kadiliman

Ikaw ay nadadapa
Napipilayan din
Di makapagsalita
Anung ibig sabihin?

Wala, wala namang...
Wala namang perpektong tao

Ano ba ang epekto, kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?

Ikaw ay nawawala
Minsan ay nawawalan
Di ka naniniwala
Puno ng alinlangan

Ikaw ay nanliliit

Ligtas ka ba sa rehas
Bakit ka nakapiit?
Bakit ka tumatakas?

Ikaw ay natatakot
Parang walang hangganan
Ang kirot ng bangungot, di mo makalimutan

Ikaw ay nanlulumo

Bilang na ba ang araw?
Gusto mo ng sumuko,
Mundo ay nagugunaw

Wala, wala namang...
Wala namang perpektong tao

Ano ba ang epekto, kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?


Ikaw ay inaalon
Walang kalaban-laban
Tuluyang nalulunod tungo sa kalaliman

Ikaw ay nalulula

Agad kang nahuhulog
Babagsak sa lupa at biglang madudurog

Ikaw ay nagdurusa
Kaya pa bang tumagal
Hindi na makahinga
Lalo pang nasasakal

Ikaw ay dumadaing
Dala mo ba ay sumpa
Para kang ililibing at ipinagluluksa.

Wala, wala namang...
Wala namang perpektong tao

Ano ba ang epekto, kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?
Ano ba ang epekto kung meron kang depekto?

Wala...
Wala namang...
Wala namang perpekto
Anu ba ang epekto ung meron kang depekto?
Wala namang perpektong tao...

Beautiful Ones by Suede

This song has probably the most memorable video from the 90's... aside from being a really sick song. How the hell can you forget this song? The video, which displays the words of the song thru objects is really awesome. The performance part of the video is one of my favorites as well. I originally thought that the singer looked a tad bit girly and has this annoying voice, but hell why mess with success!

One moment I remember from the song was seeing it on MTV coming home after the classes got suspended because our school's basketball team won.



High on diesel and gasoline
psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits

Drag acts drug acts suicides
n your dad's suits you hide
staining his name again

Cracked up stacked up 22
psycho for sex and glue
lost it to Bostik yeah
Shaved heads rave heads on the pill
got too much time to kill
get into bands and gangs

Oh here they come the beautiful ones the beautiful ones
Lalalala

Loved up doved up, hung around,
stoned in a lonely town
shaking their meat to the beat,

High on diesel and gasoline,
psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits

Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones.
Lalalala

You don't think about it,
You don't do without it,
because you're beautiful,

And if your baby's going crazy
that's how you made me,
la, la, la, la...

Animal by Def Leppard

I've owned Def Leppard's Hysteria album for the past 3-4 years already, having only listened to it once. Just this weekend, I started to think again what made this album special, having sold about 20million records worldwide. This track caught my attention, it made a spark that other songs didn't. I just probably don't get the songs and can't relate to them, but this has that certain flair for a song i just can't explain. It also has an interesting video, somewhat relating the band in a circus setting.



A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid

Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame...oh, I burn for you!

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love
, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust
, Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust,
Animal!

I cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain
Yeah, like the restless rust... I never sleep!

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust,
Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!

Huh! Oh!
Cry wolf baby

Cry tough

Gonna hunt you like an, uh, uh, animal
Gonna take your love n' run

I gotta feel it in my blood, Whoa-oh!
I need your touch don't need your love, Whoa-oh!
And I want, and I need, and I lust, Animal!
And I want, and I need, and I lust,
Animal!

And I want (And I want)
And I need (And I need)

And I lust (And I lust)

Animal (Animal)
And I want (Take me)

And I need (Tame me)
And I lust (Make me)
Animal (Your Animal)
And I want (Show me)
And I need (Stroke me)

And I lust
(Let me be your...)
Animal (Animal)
And I want (I want)

And I need (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I lust (Yeah Animal)
Animal
(Animal)

Shake Yer Head by Eraserheads

I was playing a lot of bass this year, ever since i invested on a really good amp. one of my targets is to learn alot of Eheads. As I have been playing in a Eraserheads cover band, i was motivated to study the basslines for the debut album note-for-note. Even though I was already aware of how great Buddy Zabala is on bass, I was still taken aback on how awesome some of the laid basslines were for Ultraelectromagneticpop. All I can say was "Wow, ang galing talaga". One of the challenge was actually to learn Shake Yer Head, as it's the bass who holds the rhythm parts with minimal drumming for the song. Plainly stated this one's really a great song


I was born upside down
I felt my grandma
Put my feet on the ground
They put a spoon in my mouth
And everyone was shocked to hear me shout

Well I knew I couldn't take
All that dog food that they make
And just as soon as pull myself
On a stake and burn
I saw it coming around
And so I just yeah,
Shook my head and walk away

I grew up in a town
Where everybody's trying to push me around
The girls are all right
But the guys are tough
They're always bugging me with macho stuffs

Well I ain't no super fighter
I go for flower power
I've been running every race
Just to save my face

Well, they try to see
If you care
It's just a matter of not begging for more
You know it's really suicidal to just give in
With people you can never really be sure

Oh, when I get down to this
They'll eat you up
When the words get in your head
They'll get you up
It's a saving grace
To have enough
When you find yourself in a compromising spot
You should know, you shouldn't take
All that dog food that they make
You'd just as soon as put yourself on a stake and burn

You see it coming around

How You Remind Me by Nickelback

I don't know, why recently lyrics of this song is buzzing through my head (Are We Having Fun Yet?), when I haven't listened to it for years. But hey this is a good song! Well written, catchy and Nickelback's an awesome band. I guess my old-self is asking to take a listen to the old albums again.




Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

it's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how, you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"
yet, yet
are we having fun yet

Silly Love Songs by Wings

Today, I called in sick for work, cause I'm sick ahead due and was feeling headaches. While browsing for the net how a Rickenbacker 4001 bass sounds, I came across this old Paul McCartney classic.

This has been the song of the day. I just fell in love the song.

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.
But I look around me and I see it isn't so.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs.
And what's wrong with that?
I'd like to know, 'cause here I go again

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you

I can't explain the feeling's plain to me, now can't you see?
(I love you)
Ah, she gave me more, she gave it all to me, now can't you see,
(I love you)
What's wrong with that?
I need to know, 'cause here I go again

I love you
I love you

Love doesn't come in a minute,
Sometimes it doesn't come at all
I only know that when I'm in it
It isn't silly, love isn't silly, love isn't silly at all.

How can I tell you about my loved one?
How can I tell you about my loved one?

How can I tell you about my loved one?
(I love you)
How can I tell you about my loved one?
(I love you)

I love you
I love you
I love you
(I can't explain the feeling's plain to me, say can't you see?)
I love you
(Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me, say can't you see)
I love you
(I can't explain the feeling's plain to me, say can't you see?)
(How can I tell you about my loved one?)
I love you
(Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me, say can't you see)
(How can I tell you about my loved one?)
I love you
(I can't explain the feeling's plain to me, say can't you see?)
(How can I tell you about my loved one?)
I love you
(Ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me, say can't you see)
(How can I tell you about my loved one?)

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.
But I look around me and I see it isn't so. Oh, no
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs.
And what's wrong with that?

All She Wrote by Default

Default became one of my favorite bands during college with the the strenth of "Wasting My Time" from the debut album, The Fallout. I was heavily watching out for the 2nd album to come and when I got news that it was released in the US, I patiently downloaded the album thru music channels in IRC.

All She Wrote was the one which was very easy to listen to and became a favorite that time. I even convinced my bestfriend (Dris) to take a listen to the album and he liked the song as well, even trying to play it in an acoustic guitar.



Something's wrong with your mind
It won't think of me anymore
Was it all a waste of time
Tell me why was I such a chore
Broken bottles empty
Cut my mouth so I can't say

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Lying here in your bed
The one that you liked to do it in
Pieces of long brown hair
Are all over it and still in my brain
i can't explain
What it's like not knowing if I'll ever cross your mind

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Sleep through the day
Fight through the night
Seven a.m. and the tv is white
Covered in snow
I never knew that hell could get so cold

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Today was that day
It was that time
And that was all that she wrote for me
You fell away
I don't know why
And that was all that she wrote for me

Something's wrong with your mind
It won't think of me anymore
Was it all a waste of time
