Back to Sunderland

In just a blink, I'm back here in Room 199 again. This morning I was still in Chelmsford, going to Wickford town to have a walk and buy my slippers.
After I went back at around noon, I fried some rice myself, accompany with some canned wanton soup, that's my lunch today. Then off I go to London Stansted Airport at around 2.30p.m. Arriving around 3.05p.m. so I just checked in straightly, then walk straight into the waiting lounge, took this photo in the toilet as I feel the words on the mirror are quite special. I'm not cam-whoring yea! Just taking photos of the words!
There's my plane coming at around 4.15p.m. Boarding at around 4.30p.m. but the flight delayed due to some congestion reasons, so the plane took off around 5p.m. rather than 4.40p.m.
Manage to get back in time to have my dinner with the rest of the guys. Saw her, she still look so charming though. Dinner is nice but I just feel too tired to say anything.

So, what have I done for the past whole week? I updated already in the previous few posts. See for yourself then. This following video is me on drums playing Dirty Little Secret which I promised that I'll post it here. The second half part of the video is a bit off sync, maybe due to the conversion of the videos when I edit it. Lazy to correct the timing so, just the original one. Just a sharing of my hobby, although it's not that great afterall. I know I look dead in the video, I know I look like a zombie in the video. Well, it's just me.

Music This Week - I don't Love You by My Chemical Romance


It's been more than a week I didn't update the song in my blog. Reason is that I was rushing my assignments before Saturday last week, then after that, holiday started and there are some activities on, so I didn't have mood to update.

So, here is this week's song, I don't Love You by My Chemical Romance. I was obsessed with MCR's songs this few months. Had been listening to their new album The Black Parade so often. Even their old album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge I listened to... Before that I thought MCR's songs are all noisy and bad, don't like their style as well as you can see from the picture.. hehe.. but I found their songs are quite nice, don't know if it's the change of me in song choices...

In this album The Black Parade, there are 2 slow songs, not so noisy songs, which one of them is I don't Love You, and another one is Cancer. Cancer is a nice song as well, which is dedicated to cancer patients. It's quite meaningful as well, but this week I'm gonna introduce I don't Love You. Cancer? maybe next week I'll use. Anyway, here is the video of I don't Love You. It's on the panel as well. Lyrics comes after the video.


Lyrics

I Don't Love You

When you go
Don't ever think I'll make you try to stay
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way

When after all this time that you still owe
You're still, the good-for-nothing I don't know
So take your gloves and get out
Better get out
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading
So sick and tired of all the needless beating
But baby when they knock you
Down and out
It's where you oughta stay

And after all the blood that you still owe
Another dollar's just another blow

So fix your eyes and get up
Better get up
While you can
Whoa, whooa

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Well come on, come on

When you go
Would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday"

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

Music this week - All My Life by K-ci and Jojo


This is a song which was released a long time ago. I still have it in my Media Player playlist as I really like the music as well as the lyrics. It's quite meaningful, sweet, happy. Looking at the lyrics... I can't dedicate to anyone at the moment... maybe in future? hehe...



So here are the lyrics...

All My Life

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

I will never find another lover sweeter than you,
sweeter than you
and I will never find another lover more precious than you,
more precious than you
Girl You are Close to me just like my mother,
Close to me you're like my father,
Close to me you're like my sister,
Close to me you're like my brother
You are the only one my everything and for you this song I sing

All my life I pray for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I pray for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do, love me too

I promise to never fall in love with a stranger,
You're all I'm thinking of I praise the Lord above,
For sending me your love, I cherish every hug,
I REALLY LOVE YOU!!!

All my life, I pray for someone like you,
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I pray for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do, love me

You're all that I've ever known,
when you smile my face always seems to glow,
You turn my life around,
You pick me up when I was down,
You're all that I've ever known,
when you smile my face glows,
You picked me up when I was down,
You're all that I've ever known,
when you smile my face glows glows,
You picked me up when I was down
and I hope that you feel the same way too,
Yes I pray that you do love me too!

All my life, I pray for someone like you,
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I pray for someone like you
Yes, I pray that you do, love me too

All my life, I pray for someone like you,
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I pray for someone like you
Yes, I pray that you do, love me too
All my life I pray for someone like you

Music this week - Angels or Devils by Dishwalla

This week's song is by Dishwalla. Those 5 guys in the picture which I never heard of them (again) and they don't really look handsome whatsoever. But one song attracted me - Angels or Devils from the album Opaline which was released in year 2002.

This is a nice song which I heard from Gloria's blog. Her version is the album version. That is the first time I heard that song and when I saw the name, I feel so strange as the group's name is call dishwalla, which I don't even know what it means, and when u read it, it sounds funny. But anyway, the song is nice, so I go search for it in Imeem again. I found piano version! the piano makes me lost in the song... beautiful song... So, here are both versions of the song (The piano version is on as u read this post this week, probably from now till after 7 to 10 days).

This is the album version


Piano version


The lyrics are shown below.

ANGELS or DEVILS

this is the last time

that I'm ever gonna come here tonight
this is the last time - I will fall
into a place that fails us all - inside

I can see the pain in you

I can see the love in you

but fighting all the demons will take time

it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever

are we ever gonna learn to fly

the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down

come around

I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold


this is the last time

that I'm ever gonna give in tonight

are there angels or devils crawling here?
I just want to know what blurs and what is clear - to see


still I can see the pain in you

and I can see the love in you

and fighting all the demons will take time

it will take time

the angels they burn inside for us
are we ever are we ever
gonna learn to fly

the devils they burn inside of us
are we ever gonna come back down - come around

I'm always gonna worry about the things that could break us


if I was to give in - give it up
- and then

take a breath - make it deep

cause it might be the last one you get
be the last one

that could make us cold

you know that they could make us cold

I'm always gonna worry about the things that could make us cold

Music: Dishwalla and G. Wattenberg

Do enjoy the song and give opinions whether this week's featured song or last week's better.

Music this week - Ache by James Carrington





Another version, I think this one's better...



James Carrington.. I think most ppl never heard of this guy. I myself don't heard of him before. Until previous fortnight I went to The CWTV network webpage to look for Smallville update as I was wondering if there is anything telling why there's no Smallville on show on previous fortnight. Didn't found anything so browsing through the page.. then I found Smallville Featured Music so I click it as I like Smallville featured music.. I downloaded most of the songs somewhere else.. then found out this song 'Ache' by James Carrington, the best of the songs that I downloaded that day. Today I decided to share with you all.



It is quite a sad song, as feature at the end in episode "wither" (Season 6 Episode 3) of Smallville. The song started when Chloe saved Jimmy from death, then continue after that is Oliver and Lois came out from the costume party, then she challenge Oliver for a kiss, but thats not the main point again. After that is Lex and Lana going back home happily after the costume party.. then they start something intimate... then final scene is Clark sitting in his barn throwing that ball... appearing so sad... this song is all about Clark and Lana's story...

Here are the lyrics...

Isn't it strange, the way things can change
The life that you lead, turned on it's head
suddenly someone, means more than you felt before
house and its yard, turns into home.
I'm sorry but I meant to say, many things along the way, so this one's for you.

Have I told you I ache, have I told you I ache,
Have I told you I ache, for you...

Have I told you I ache, and I hope it's not too late,
Can I hold you and ache, for you...

The time that it took, writing words for my book,
seems to have broken off.

The gate that I shut,
last time I got hurt
seems to have opened itself
oh the world it's spinnin' now,
it's tryin' catch me up
tell me to appreciate, here and now
I'm sorry but I meant to say
so many things along the way
so this one's for you.

Have I told you I ache, Have I told you I ache, have I told you I ache, for you...

Have I told you I ache, and I hope it's not too late, can I hold you and ache, for you...

Enjoy the song...

The Fray - How to Save a Life

The Fray? I never heard their name before.. until recently when I found out about them in Jade's Blog. She used it as background music which I feel it's a very nice song. Well, she changed to other song after a while. I thought I might share with you guys out there who likes music.


The Fray, members are Isaac (vocal and piano), Joe (guitar and vocal), Ben and David. 'How to Save a Life' is a meaningful song which touched many people's hearts as you search for comments in video hosts websites such as YouTube. They even made videos remembering their lost friend. Here is a description about the song which I get from the official website of The Fray.

The title track, "How To Save A Life," was inspired by Slade's experience as a mentor to a crack addicted teen. "I was a sheltered suburban kid when I met this guy. He was a recovering addict, coming out of a really tough teenage life. Thankfully, he was on his way out of that life, so he was able to really look back with some objectivity. The song is more of a memoir about his slow motion descent and all the relationships he lost along the way." Destined to be one of the band's greatest hits, Slade isn't worried about getting tired of performing the song: "It is the easiest one for me to sing every night. I constantly get emails from people who relate to it."

The song has resonated with fans in some truly moving ways, which is humbling to the author: "Some people actually formed a non-profit organization called Save A Life. They lost their son to a tragic car accident and apparently ‘How To Save A Life' was the last song he downloaded. Another girl lost her mother to suicide. She wrote me and said it helped her deal with her mom's death."

Here are the lyrics of the song. Music Videos are below the lyrics...

Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through

Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed

He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life

There are 2 versions of music videos as shown below. I think the second one is more meaningful than the first version. What do you think? Take a look..





Hope you enjoy the song and do leave any comments that you like.
