Step in the club now and wardobe intact now!

[Chorus (2x)]

[Eminem:]

Ooh...Looks like another club banger
They better hang on when they throw this thing on
Get a lil drink on
They gonna flip for this Akon shit
You can bank on it!
Pedicure medicure kitty-cat claws
The way she climbs up and down them poles
Looking like one of them putty-cat dolls
Trying to hold my woodie back thru my chores
Steps upstage and think I saw
Creeps up behind me, shes like "yoo"
I'm like ya I know lets cut to the chase
No time to waste back to my place
Starts from the club to the crib it's like a mile away
I'm more like a palace shall I say
Plus I got pal of gal? his game
In fact he is the one singing the song that's playing
"Akon!"

[Akon:]

I feel you creeping on, I can see from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and posibbly bend you over look back and watch me

[Chorus]

Eminem is rollin', d and em rollin' bo
And all marvelous them rolling
Women just holding big booty rollin'
Soon I'll be on Eminem throwin "D!"
Hittin on less than "Three!"
Block wheel style like "Whee!"
Girl I can tell you want me because lately

I feel you creeping on, I can see from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and posibbly bend you over look back and watch me
[Chorus]

The Fray - How to Save A Life

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


Hinder - Lips of an Angel

Honey why are you calling me so late
It’s kinda hard to talk right now
Honey why are you crying is everything okay
I gotta whisper cause I can’t be too loud
Well, my girls in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It’s funny that you’re calling me tonight
And yes I’ve dreamt of you too
And does he know you’re talking to me
Will it start a fight
No I don’t think she has a clue
Well my girls in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on
It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those wordsa it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name
It sounds so sweet
Coming from the lips of an angel
Hearing those words it makes me weak
And I never wanna say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel
(And I never wanna say goodbye)
But girl you make it so hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel
Honey why are you calling me so late

Diamonds red, white, n blue like the American flag

N see I got that nice screen
My money spend on jewels

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

This is not a "new" song, per se, since I bought the album around six years ago. I just found myself really love this one song lately. I don't know, probably the mood.

Paul Schwartz - Ebben (album: Cafe del Mar Aria vol. 2)

Ebben, ne andro lontano
Come va l'eco della pia campana

Ebben, ne andro lontano
Come va l'eco della pia campana

La, fra la neve bianca
La, fra le nubi d'or

La, fra la neve bianca
La, fra le nubi d'or

Ebben, ne andro lontano
Come va l'eco della pia campana

La, fra la neve bianca
La, fra le nubi d'or

La, fra la neve bianca
La, fra le nubi d'or

fra le nubi d'or



EDIT: alright, WTF happens with the URL tag?

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

Don't mean to necro, but this thread is about 'new songs to love', isn't it? Well I just happen to find a new song that I can't help but play it over and over again: Lazy Summer Days by Elcho (album: Cafe del Mar Volume Doce, track 3).

Elcho - Lazy Summer Days

memories of yesterday
can't think of anything but you
never gonna fade away
even if you disappear from view

sweet distraction
you're always on my mind
sweet distraction
same feeling everytime

clear intentions
just wanna make you mine
sweet distraction
that feeling everytime

lazy summer days
wash away
under the spell of soft summer rain
lazy summer days
wash away
under the spell of soft summer rain

we are all the same
daydreaming of when I held you close
doesn’t matter what you say
you were the one I wanted close

clear intentions
just wanna make you mine
sweet distraction
that feeling everytime

lazy summer days
wash away
under the spell of soft summer rain
lazy summer days
wash away
under the spell of soft summer rain

we are all the same

Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin

I absolutely love this song....both versions but the acoustic version has me smiling

If you want to hear it....myspace (you can hear both versions here)
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... ID=3821462

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that?
Would you like that?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

No

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane

[Kreshna Aryaguna Nurzaman]

Not really a "new" song per se (it's a 2005 song), but I just like that one song recently, playing it over and over again. The song's name is Geek in the Pink by Jason Mraz.

The funny thing is that when I heard the song at the first place, I mistakenly thought the singer was Jamiroquai --not to mention it reminds me so much of Jamiroquai's Virtual Insanity (melody-wise). Nonetheless, it gets a honored place on the list of my favorite 'lounge songs' --alongside with Summertime (Smoma), Change Your Mind (Smoma), Soulflower (Brand New Heavies), And I Know (Shunza), Sleeping Child (Bonnie Pink), and Have Fun Go Mad (Blair).


Here's the lyrics.

Jason Mraz - Geek in the Pink

[Record scratching sounds]
[Rapper] Yo, brother A to Z
[Mraz] Yo, whassup B?
[Rapper] Yo, what time is it?
[Mraz] Haha it's laundry day

(do do do…)

Well, let the geek in the pink take a stab at it
If you like the way I'm thinkin' baby wink at it
I may be skinny at times but I'm fat fulla rhymes
Pass me the mic and I'm a grab at it
Well, isn't it delicious, crazy way that I'm kissin'
'Cause baby listen to this, don't wanna miss it while it's hittin'
Sometimes you gotta fit in to get in
But don't ever quit cause soon I'm gonna let you in but see

I don't care what she might think about me
You can vibe without me if you want
I could be the one to take her home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be a let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
I could be the one to turn you out
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge me by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away

Like the geek in the pink (do do do…)
Like the geek in the pink, pink, pink (do do do…)
The geek in the pink, yeah

Well this relationship fodder don't mean to bother nobody
But Cupid's automatic musta fired multiple shots at her
Because she fall in love too often that's what the matter
At least I talk about it keep a pattern of flattery and
She was starin' through the doorframe
Eyeing me down like already a bad boyfriend
Well she can get her toys outta the drawer then
Cause I ain't comin' home I don't need that attention, see

I don't care what she might think about me
You'll get by without me if she wants
I could be the one to take her home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be the let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
I could be the one to turn you out
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away

Hey baby look at me go
From zero to hero
You better take it from a geek like me
I can save you from unoriginal dum-dums
Who wouldn't care if you com...plete him or not

So what I've got a short attention span
A coke in my hand
Because I'd rather have the afternoon, relax and understand
My hip hop and flip-flops it don't stop with the light rock
A shot to mock you kinda puts me in the tight spot
The hype is nothing more than hoo-ha so I'm
Developing a language and I'm callin' it my own
So take a peek into the speaker and you'll see what I mean
That on the other side the grass is greener

I don't care what she might think about me
You'll get by without me if you want
I could be the one to take you/her home
Baby we could rock the night alone
If we never get down it wouldn't be the let down
But sugar don't forget what you already know
I could be the one to turn you out/on
We could be the talk across the town
Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
You might regret what you let slip away

Like the geek in the pink (do do do…)
Well, I'm the geek in the pink, yo pink pink
Geek is the color for fall, I'm the geek in the pink yeah
So I'm the geek yo, in the pink yo.
Hahah, y'all geek is the new color for fall
I'm the geek in the pink

[Mared]

I've got a confession here. My sis turned me on to these guys which is both unusual and a bit un-nerving for me.

But in any case, if you haven't checked out The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus yet, do so. (MySpace) They have a really great debut album. But I have two favorites:

Atrophy
Don't tell me this is your last chance to change
'cause if you do, then you would be telling a lie but

I warned you
what could happen if you should decide
to live your life from the 9 to 5
and I mourn you
for the detail that is left unsaid
is a reminder of the time you bled

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

They've sold you
everything you need to fix you up
and you feel good now but you can't wake up
they found a way to reassure you
that everything would be okay
reach out today now I emplore you
to remember who you are

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

So you felt it, but you don't know,
why you can't explain at all
why you felt it, 'cause you don't know,
no you don't know

Break the walls between building atrophy
causing all your problems to recede
break the walls between (break the walls between)
causing all your pain (causing all your pain)
you'll never learn

Return to days when you knew you still felt alive
Reveal the way you felt when you could look inside

(Break the walls between building atrophy)
Take back
The beat in your heart
Why fight
When you can't be bought?

(Causing all your problems to recede)
Take back
The beat in your heart
Why fight
When you can't be bought?

(Break the walls between)
Take back
The beat in your heart
Why fight
When you can't be bought?

(Causing all your pain)
Take back
The beat in your heart
Why fight
When you can't be bought?



Your Guardian Angel
When I see your smile
Tears run down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you're my, you're my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
[to fade]

Williams Dar Lyrics - Southern California Wants To Be Western New York

There's a part of the country could drop off tomorrow in an earthquake,
Yeah it's out there on the cutting edge, the people move, the sidewalks
shake.
And there's another part of the country with a land that gently creaks
and thuds,
Where the heavy snows make the faucets leak in bathrooms with
free-standing tubs.
They're in houses that are haunted, with the kids who lie awake and
think about
All the generations past who used to use that dripping sink.

And sometimes one place wants to slip into the other just to see
What it's like to trade its demons for the restless ghost of Miss
Oglivey.
She used to pick the mint from her front yard to dress the Sunday pork,
Sometimes southern California wants to be western New York.

It wants to have a family business in sheet metal or power tools,
It wants to have a diner where the coffee tastes like diesel fuel,
And it wants to find the glory of a town they say has hit the skids,
And it wants to have a snow day that will turn its parents into kids,
And its embarrassed, but it's lusting after a SUNY student with mousy
brown hair who is
Taking out the compost, making coffee in long underwear.

And southern California says to save a place, I'll meet you there,
And it tried to pack up its Miata, all it could fit was a prayer,
Sometimes the stakes are bogus, sometimes the fast lane hits a fork,
Sometimes southern California wants to be western New York.

Tempe, Arizona thinks the Everglades are greener and wetter,
And Washington, D.C. thinks that Atlanta integrated better,
But I think that southern California has more pain than we can say,
Cause it wants to travel back in time, but it just can't leave L.A.

But now I hear they've got a theme park planned, designed to make you
gasp and say,
Oh, I bet that crumbling mill town was a booming mill town in its day,
And the old investors scoff at this, but the young ones hope they'll
take a chance,
And they promise it will make more dough than Mickey Mouse in northern
France,
And the planners planned an opening day, a town historian will host,
And the waitresses look like waitresses who want to leave for the west
coast.

And they'll have puttering on rainy weekends, autumn days that make you
feel sad,
They'll have hundred year old plumbing and the family you never had,
And a Hudson River clean-up concert and a bundle-bearing stork,
And I hear they've got a menu planned, its tres western New York.

-----------------------------------------------

I won't explain... but yeah.... gotta love this song.

[The Cleric]

Honestly, that first song? Every time I hear it I want to shank someone in the throat. Preferably whoever sings it, whoever produced it, whoever decided to play it, and whoever turned that station on. In that order.


P.S. And that chain song. That one too.

I think it's one of those you either love it or hate it...
my boyfriend can't stand it either... but our roommate likes it...

Well, new to you, anyway.

THE BALLAD OF AN ABANDONED SHIP
On that day, all derided the Captain, all scoffed;
Ship's boy, skipper - all swore fast and loud.
Proudly rearing and tearing their bandages off,
Sailors bellowed and raged in the shrouds.

Then the doors of our brains
Off the hinges were torn
And were carried away
To a mirage-like shore,

In the faraway Promised Lands landing,
Lands Columbian and Magellanian.

But it seems I will not
See those lands newly found:
Doing eight or nine knots
I ran firmly aground.
Ours were dangerous goals,
But the brave lads were game.
Someone steered for the shoals.
I'm the one more to blame.

Then my brothers sailed on - I was left all alone.
The more sensitive ones swallowed spray,
And without me the great daring voyage went on -
They just wrote me off, and sailed away.

Roundly cursing the weather,
Fate and pitiless chance,
They sailed off, all together,
My unfortunate sons.

First, two salvoes, and then they would sail on:
Hail, Columbus! And then, hail, Magellan!

I drink foam as the waves
Slap my sides - I don't care.
Decks to bottom the staves
Have been crushed and laid bare.
Slime and seaweed and gore
Thickly cover my sides.
You can look at my sores -
I have nothing to hide.

Here's a cannonball furrow, quite close to the frame;
Here are scars left by ramming and fire;

You can see where I was many years ago maimed
By a pirate's well-honed grappling irons.

Look, my keel is uneven,
As if gnawed by huge teeth -
My lean belly was riven
Long ago by a reef.

I am rotting and panting and wheezing
Though I've been on the high seas well seasoned.

Winds are sucking my blood
Creeping for'ard by stealth,
Whipping starboard to port-
Winds, they will be my death.
They lambaste me and wail
From first light to first light,
They are driving long nails
In my soul day and night.

Like unbidden guests out on a rampage, the swine,
Winds kick everything here upside down.
How I wish that they choked in my dark holds on wine,
Or in fury pulled me off the ground.

They're stronger, that's sure -
I'm a wild beast at bay.
But it's not the winds' fury
That'll help me today.

Like thin arms are my masts, thin and frail.
Like an old woman's breasts are my sails.

This will be the eighth wonder -
A generous swell
Will sweep over and under
My mouldy old shell.
I will shake off the spell,
I will rise on a crest,
And my white sails will swell
Like a young maiden's breast.

I'll catch up with the fleet, I will show no disdain
For my kin who chose not to remember.
I will let my old crew come on board once again,
I will not rake old memories' embers.

But there's no room for me
In the fleet line today.

You play dangerously,
Cruiser - out of my way!
Are we brothers or not?
I got out of a hole-
Frigate, bear hard a-port, There's enough sea for all...

That it should come to this -
You reject me, by God!
Once one's stuck on the reefs,
Is one wiped out for good?
Open ranks, heed my call,
We're all ships in the end,
There's enough sea for all
And there is enough land,

So look forward, men, to happy landings
In Columbian lands and Magellanian.


Have a very nice day.

Cocaine (we're all going to hell) Strata

You can see the video here

She draws the costume correct in thick, black and red eyeliner.
She's too young for the club but the guys at the door don't mind her.
The boys are all lining up for their chance to wine and dine her.
She thinks she's working the scene,
but she's caught up in a web full of spiders (and all the drinks they buy her)

She don't like cocaine, baby just likes how it smells
says maybe you can drive me home if you want.

Then you wake up beside her saying "baby I think you should leave..."
- She had a really rough night, she got too high, now she can't breathe
and if the ambulance comes you know they're gonna bring the police,
so you wrap her up tight, put her to sleep beneath a willow tree
and your hands are clean...

She don't like cocaine, baby just likes how it smells
says maybe you can drive me home if you want.

So go out and have your fun tonight,
you might as well go out and raise your glass to life.
Go out and have your fun tonight,
you might as well go out and raise your drinks to life,
'cause we're all going to Hell...

And so now we can see how easily we become hopelessly tangled up
in the very webs we've spun.
So give me one last line and I promise you I'm done -
This is the story of how one night can weigh a ton.

It is easier to see
Evil as entity
Not as condition inside you and me
I did not invent it, I'm just in charge of it
Simple businessman with simple practical plan

So do you wanna be a model, yeah?
All you got to do is show up, wow!
We'll be leaving soon for the breaking ground
For there will forever be poverty
There forever be cruelty

There forever be wretched of Earth
Crawlin' up round driven by last semen drop
Factory that makes you, they say, it never stops
Factory that makes them, I know, will never stop...

So do you wanna be a model, yeah?
All you got to do is show up, wow!
We'll be leaving soon for the breaking ground
For there will forever be slavery
There forever be cruelty

In this game they'll always be on the top
The factory that makes you will never stop...
It's easier to see evil as entity
and it's up for you to know or not!

My new personal anthem:

Title: Alcohol




Yeah o yeah you seen me walk
On burning bridges
Yeah o yeah you seen me fall
In love with witches
And you know my brain is held
Inside by stitches
Yet you know I did survive
All of your lovely sieges

And you know that I'll pick up
Every time you call
Just to thank you one more time
Alcohol
And you know that I'll survive
Every time you come
Just to thank you one more time
For everything you've done

Alcohol
Alcohol

And I'm sorry some of us
Given you bad name
yeah o yeah, cause without you
Nothing is the same

Yeah o yeah i miss you so
Every time we break up
Just to hit a higher note
Every time we make up

Who's crawlin' up my spine - alcohol
I've been waiting long long time - alcohol
Now you teach me how to rhyme - alcohol
Just don't stab me in the back with cartisol

Now we reunite - alcohol
And forever be divine - alcohol
Screw a light bulb in my head - alcohol
may that ceremony be happy or sad...

Have a very nice day.

When life is left behind this isolation
Cruelty and hatred have become
The cause of those whose eyes are full of wanting
The truth will still abandon none

So you must carry this light into the darkness
You shall be a star unto the night
You will find hope alive among the hopeless
That is your purpose to this life

The lips draw words and hands find actions
Still there is more within one heart
Into the silence will you answer
Before the chaos will you come

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here i am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here i am
Thy will be done
Santa sophia (here i am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena sophia (here i am)
Thy will be done (how can i hope to live)
What i cannot dream

You cannot map the ways of divinity
This much is known only unto god

And through these doubts and through your confusion
Know that you are chosen to this fight
Look to find a soul filled with compassion
Look to see a living source of light

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here i am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here i am
Thy will be done
Santa sophia (here i am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena sophia (here i am)
Thy will be done (how can i hope to be)
What i can't believe

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find the light within

Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life

Here i am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here i am
Thy will be done
Santa sophia (here i am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena sophia (here i am)
Thy will be done (how can i hope to find)
What i cannot see

Here i am
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here i am
Thy will be done
Santa sophia (here i am)
Pieces borne to your victory
Athena sophia (here i am)
Thy will be done (how can i hope to be)
What's inside of me.
