EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL Missing

This is a song I like a lot. Everything but the girl are English duo Tracey Thorn (vocals and lyrics) and Ben Watt (music, lyrics, vocals, programming). They make pop music and sometimes their songs are remixed by famous dj’s. Here is a remix by dj Todd Terry of one of their most popular songs. I love Tracey’s voice.

I step off the train
I’m walkin’ down your street again
And past your door
But you don’t live there anymore
It’s years since you’ve been there
And now you’ve disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You’ve found some better place

And I miss you

(Like the deserts miss the rain)Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead
Of everyone
We’d walk behind while you would run
I look up at your house
And I can almost hear you shout, down to me
Where I always used to be

And I miss you
(Like the deserts miss the rain)
And I miss you
(Like the deserts miss the rain)

Back on the train
I ask why did I come again
Can I confess?
I’ve been hangin’ ’round your old address
And the years have proved
To offer nothing since you moved
You’re long gone
But I can’t move on

And I miss you
(Like the deserts miss the rain)
And I miss you, yeah
(Like the deserts miss the rain) I miss you

I step off the train
I’m walkin’ down your street again
Past your door
I guess you don’t live there anymore
It’s years since you’ve been there
And now you’ve disappeared somewhere
Like outer space
You’ve found some better place

And I miss you
(Like the deserts miss the rain)
And I miss you, yeah
(Like the deserts miss the rain)
And I miss you,

(Like the deserts miss the rain)
And I miss you, yeah
(Like the deserts miss the rain)

Deserts miss the rain
(Like the deserts miss the rain)

Do you like it? Don’t you want to dance? Guai!


AMY WINEHOUSE Rehab

Rehab is a very popular song these days. Listen to it and try to sing.

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go

I’d rather be at home with ray
I ain’t got seventy days
Cause there’s nothing
There’s nothing you can teach me
That I can’t learn from Mr Hathaway

I didn’t get a lot in class
But I know it don’t come in a shot glass

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/IlRF43-xaYc" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]


The man said ‘why do you think you here’
I said ‘I got no idea
I’m gonna, I’m gonna lose my baby
so I always keep a bottle near’
He said ‘I just think your depressed,
this me, yeah baby, and the rest’

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know

I don’t ever wanna drink again
I just ooh I just need a friend
I’m not gonna spend ten weeks
have everyone think I’m on the mend

It’s not just my pride
It’s just ’til these tears have dried

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go

Amy explica que té problemes amb l’alcohol i que la seva gent vol que vagi a l’hospital a recuperar-se (“rehab” es refereix a rehabilitació). Diu que si tingués amics no tornaria a beure.

Beure alcohol no és una sol.lució als problemes.

“UNWRITTEN” Natasha Bedingfield

Hi! Watzup!

Surfing the net the other day I found this song by Natasha Bedingfield called “Unwritten”.

You can hear the original song in a commercial, but I think this version is much more amazing. Sometimes I prefer the acoustic versions rather than the original ones!!!

So, let’s make a deal: You learn to sing like the girl and I promise I will learn to play like him!!

Here come the lyrics:

[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/BH0ZgJXzlkk" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]I am unwritten, can’t read my mind, I’m undefined
I’m just beginning, the pen’s in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We’ve been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can’t live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

Tokio Hotel Lyrics :: Through The Monsoon

Tokio Hotel Lyrics :: Through The Monsoon
I’m staring at a broken door,
There’s nothing left here anymore.
My room is cold,
It’s making me insane.

I’ve been waiting here so long,
Another moment seems to ‘ve come,
I see the dark clouds coming up again.

CHORUS
Running through the monsoon,
Beyond the world,
To the end of time,
Where the rain won’t hurt

Fighting the storm,
Into the blue,
And when I lose myself I think of you,
Together we’ll be running somewhere new…

Through the monsoon.
Just me and you.

A half moon’s fading from my sight,
I see your vision in its light.
But now it’s gone and left me so alone

I know I have to find you now,
Can hear your name, I don’t know how.
Why can’t we make this darkness feel like home?

CHORUS
Running through the monsoon,
Beyond the world,
To the end of time,
Where the rain won’t hurt

Fighting the storm,
Into the blue,
And when I lose myself I think of you,
Together we’ll be running somewhere new…
And nothing can hold me back from you.

Through the monsoon. Hey! MUSIC Hey!

BRIDGE
I’m fighting all this power,
Coming in my way
Let it take me straight to you,
I’ll be running night and day.

I’ll be with you soon…
Just me and you.

We’ll be there soon…
So soon.

CHORUS
Running through the monsoon,
Beyond the world,
To the end of time,
Where the rain won’t hurt

Fighting the storm,
Into the blue,
And when I lose myself I think of you,
Together we’ll be running somewhere new…
And nothing can hold me back from you.

Through the monsoon.
Through the monsoon.
Just me and you.
Through the monsoon.
Just me and you.

Billy Ray Cyrus “Achy Breaky Heart”

[kml_flashembed movie="http://es.youtube.com/v/OIqMflhH1LY" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

I’ve seen that Lucia made a project about Miley Cyrus. His father is Billy Ray Cyrus, and I’m sure you all know this song…

I hope you like it!

Rubén

By the way… you can try to dance this song in the country style…!





You can tell the world you never was my girl
You can burn my clothes when I’m gone
Or you can tell your friends just what a fool I’ve been
And laugh and joke about me on the phone
You can tell my arms to go back onto the phone
You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips to tell my fingertips
They won’t be reaching out for you no more
But don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don’t think it’d understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
OooYou can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas
Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg
Or tell your brother Cliff who’s fist can tell my lips
He never really liked me anyway
Oh tell your Aunt Louise, tell anything you please
Myself already knows that I’m okay
Oh you can tell my eyes to watch out for my mind
It might be walking out on me today
But don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don’t think it’d understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo
 

But don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
I just don’t think it’d understand
And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

Don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo

Don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
Ooo
