Thank you, Susan Boyle.... everytime I watch this, I will remind myself that even if I am 47 and the world laughs at me, if I believe and if I know I can....I will make it.

All I need to do is believe...and grab the chance.

::Total Eclipse Of The Heart::
Artist: Bonnie Tyler

Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming around
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry
Turnaround,
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround,
Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround,
Every now and then I know you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround,
Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround,
Every now and then I know there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes,
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand

The angry boy a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you dont belong
You're the first to fight
Youre way too loud
Youre the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something's wrong

Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say put the past away

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand

Well he's on the table and he's gone to code
And I do not think anyone knows
What they're doing here
And your friends have left you
You've been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this
And I, I want you to know

Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today
You could put the past away

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies that youve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand
I would understand

Understand
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Can you put the past away
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
And I would understand

I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
I would understand
I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend
I would understand

::~::Hot N Cold::~::
Artiste: Katy Perry

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah, you PMS like a bitch
I would know

And you always think
Always speak cryptically
I should know
That you're no good for me

Chorus:
'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

We used to be just like twins, so in sync
The same energy now's a dead battery
Used to laugh 'bout nothing
Now you're plain boring
I should know
That you're not gonna change

Chorus:
'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in and you're out
You're up and you're down

Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bipolar
Stuck on a rollercoaster
Can't get off this ride

You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes

Chorus (x2)

You, you don't really wanna stay, no
You, but you don't really wanna go, oh

Chorus

"What goes around, comes around
What goes up must come down" - Alicia Keys

Duncha just LOOOOVVEEE these songs? *shimmy shimmy*

"No one ever speaks about the monsters...

I used to have demons
In my room at night
Desire despair desire
So many monsters..." - Annie Lennox

I still do...

Randomly, I was watching Dracula (1992) and I quite like the story although Winona Ryder annoys me to my back teeth! It gives a more...human side to Dracula and portrays him as Vlad the Impaler instead of the other campy versions of Dracula (I love you Richard Roxburgh but you really DID vamp up Count Dracula a lil too much).

Long story short, Vlad answered the call of God to go fight the Turks (or was it Moors?) at Constantinople and so he did but because he was winning some enemy arse decided to send a note via arrow mail back to his bride Elisabeta (did she even exist?) telling her he was dead. So after his victory, he rides back to find that she has thrown herself off their hilly castle and died. Anyways, he goes crazy with grief and since the really unsympathetic priest tells him she is damned for suicide, he decides to challenge God and well...you know the rest.

Forward to the future, Mina Murray pretty much is Elisabeta reborn and she's bethrothed to Jonathan Harker (Keanu)...so guess what happens? LOLZ~!
Surprising cast though...I mean, Anthony Hopkins as Van Helsing?? Cary Elwes as Arthur Holmwood? LOLZ~!

I don't know about you but every time I think of Anthony Hopkins, I think of Hannibal (Hannibal vs Dracula....hmm....) and everytime I think of Cary Elwes....Robin Hood comes to mind!

Pottering back...anyways, this is the theme song which is really souful.

::~::Love Song For A Vampire::
Artiste: Annie Lennox
OST: Dracula (1992)

Come into these arms again
And lay your body down
Th' rhythm of this trembling heart
Is beating like a drum.

It beats for you, it bleeds for you
It knows not how it sounds.
For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs.

Once I had the rarest rose that
Ever deigned to bloom.
Cruel winter chilled the balm,
And stole my flower too soon

O loneliness, O hopelessness
To search the ends of time,
For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine.

Love....Still falls the rain.
Be mine forever...

Let me be the only one
To keep you from the cold.
Now the floor of heav'n is laid,
Its stars of brightest glow.

They shine for you.
They shine for you.
They burn for all to see.

Come into these arms again
And set this spirit free.

Yes, I've been absolutely GAGA over the High School Musical 3's Soundtrack and yes it's a little childish but so what?

Sometimes I think we just have to step back and allow ourselves to be children for a while...or else we might just break. Or maybe it's just me.

In any case, will be changing my little player at the side soon. LOLZ~!!

Artiste: Zac Efron
OST: High School Musical 3

The day your door is closed
The echoes fill your soul
They won't say which way to go
Just trust your heart
To find what you're here for
Open another door
But I'm not sure anymore
It's just so hard

Voices in my head
Tell me they know best
Got me on the edge
They're pushin', pushin', they're pushin'
I know they've got a plan
But the ball's in my hands
This time is man-to-man
I'm drivin', fightin', inside of

(A world that's upside down)
It's spinning faster
What do I do now
Without you?

I don't know where to go
What's the right team
I want my own thing
So bad I'm gonna scream
I can't chose, so confused
What's it all mean
I want my own dream
So bad I'm gonna scream

I'm kicking down the walls
I gotta make them fall
Just break through them all
I'm punchin', crashin',
I'm gonna
Fight to find myself
Me, and no one else
Which way, I can't tell
I'm searchin', searchin', can't find a

(Way that I should turn)
I should, to right or left, it...
It's like nothing works
Without you

I don't know where to go
What's the right team
I want my own thing
So bad I'm gonna scream
I can't chose, so confused
What's it all mean
I want my own dream
So bad I'm gonna scream

Yeah, the clock's running down,
Hear the crowd getting loud
I'm consumed by the sound
Is it her? Is it love?
Can the music ever be enough?
Gotta work it out!
Gotta work it out!
You can do it!
You can do it!

I don't know where to go
What's the right team
I want my own thing
So bad I'm gonna scream
I can't chose, so confused
What's it all mean
I want my own dream
So bad I'm gonna scream

I don't know where to go
What's the right team
I want my own thing
I want my own thing
I can't chose, so confused
What's it all mean
I want my own dream
So bad I'm gonna scream

A very touching part in Les Miz....when the beloved dead returns, free of their own chains, to relieve the burden of a dying man. (broken into two parts though...)






You can actually watch the whole thing (if you'd like) on Mistyaho's channel! ^^
I think it will help to understand his grief and misgivings.

What I'd give to watch Ruthie Henshall and Lea Salonga LIVE~!! *sigh*

Am suddenly very preoccupied with the thoughts of mortality...hence the song.

::~::Into The West::~::
Artiste: Annie Lennox
OST: Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King

Lay down,
Your sweet and weary head.
Night is falling.
You have come to journey’s end.

Sleep now, and dream
Of the ones who came before.
They are calling,
From across a distant shore.

Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see.
All of your fears will pass away.
Safe in my arms,
You’re only sleeping.

What can you see,
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
A pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
To carry you home.

And all will turn,
To silver glass.
A light on the water.
All souls pass.

Hope fades,
Into the world of night.
Through shadows falling,
Out of memory and time.

Don’t say,
We have come now to the end.
White shores are calling.
You and I will meet again.
And you’ll be here in my arms,
Just sleeping.

What can you see,
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea,
A pale moon rises.
The ships have come,
To carry you home.

And all will turn,
To silver glass.
A light on the water.
Grey ships pass
Into the West.

If you haven't yet figured out, this song is about Death...but a gentle, kind, beautiful sort of Death.
I shall now go and immerse myself in the world Peter Jackson created from Tolkien's genius!

"If you're over me,
I'm already over you,
If it's all been done, what is left to do
How can you hang up if the line is dead
If you wanna walk, I'm a step ahead
If you're moving on, I'm already gone
If the light is off then it isn't on" - So Yesterday, Hillary Duff

I lied...

After Jenn mentioned this song, it's been stuck in my head...

::~::Come Clean::~::
Artiste: Hillary Duff

Let's go back
Back to the beginning
Back to when the earth, the sun, the stars all aligned

'Cause perfect didn't feel so perfect
Trying to fit a square into a circle
Was no life
I defy

[Chorus:]
Let the rain fall down
And wake my dreams
Let it wash away
My sanity
'Cause I wanna feel the thunder
I wanna scream
Let the rain fall down
I'm coming clean, I'm coming clean

I'm shedding
Shedding every color
Trying to find a pigment of truth
Beneath my skin

'Cause different
Doesn't feel so different
And going out is better
Then always staying in
Feel the wind

[Chorus]

I'm coming clean
Let the rain fall
Let the rain fall
I'm coming...

[Chorus x2]

Let's go back
Back to the beginning...

I used to walk in the rain when I was upset. The rain falling on my face allowed me to cry without anyone seeing and I miss it so much. It was a kind of freedom.
Not anymore I guess...

Stumbled across this today....




Amazing choreography, hey? Love the message too! *winkz*

I know the blog is starting to resemble a lyric blog again...but I'm so totally stuck on this song!!! Am not really a fan of the singer per se but she does have a very good voice (she's no Whitney but she might be a British Mariah voice-wise!) and the song is just stuck in my head! GAH~!

*If I'm right, this was stuck in my head once before when dear ol Shannel told me I'd like Leona's cd...lolz~!!

::~::Better In Time::~::
Artiste: Leona Lewis

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we have been through

Going, coming
Thought I heard a knock
Who's there? No one
Thinking that I deserved it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
You didn't notice, you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning, to love again
All I know is, I'mma be okay

Chorus:
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too (oh yeah)
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to (ooh ooh)
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
It wasn't all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming
Don't wanna laugh, hurt my feelings
But that's the path I believe in
And I know that, time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning, to love again
All I know is, I'm gon' be okay

Chorus:
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too (oh yeah)
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to (ooh ooh)
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me (no more you and me)
It's time I let you go so I can be free
And live my life how it should be (and I know and I know)
No matter how hard it is, I'll be fine without you
Yes, I will

Chorus:
Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too (oh oh oh)
It'll all get better in time (oh oh ooh)
Even though I really love you (you)
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to (yes I do)
It'll all get better in time (oh oh yeah)

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too (yeah yeah yeah)
It'll all get better in time (ooh ooh oh)
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to (ooh ooh, yes)
It'll all get better in time

::~::Always Look On the Bright Side Of Life::~::
Artiste(s): Whichever Broadway Cast is performing!
OST: Monty Python: Spamalot

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

If life seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps
Don't be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin
Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true.
You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(I mean - what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life...

Translation:
Travel to the moon
You're asleep, as you work out your dreams
There's no one here
While the light of the stars toys with me

In order to become strong
I have to remember how to smile
If we're together, I can do it

* Realize that...
I'm here waiting for you
Even if the future is different from now
I'm here waiting for you
I keep on shouting
I'm sure all I have to do
Is pull in the thread that connects our hearts
So the person I was back then
Would open her eyes
No need to cry

Travel in silence
I can reach you if I stretch out my hands
The only memory I have of you
Is so far away

I can hear your voice
If I close my eyes
Even a little pain
Would be nice

Look at me
I'm here waiting for you
Even if you get lost, blown away by the wind
I'm here waiting for you
I look up at the sky
I was protecting my heart
With outstretched hands
Until the person you were back then
Looked back
No need to cry

(Feel something, feel nothing
Listen closely, listen closely)
Wide open ears
Disarm the dream tickler
In the constant moment
(You will find me where it's quiet
Listen closely, listen closely)
Let the blood flow
Through all the spaces
Of the universe

Repeat *

I want to keep singing this song
For you, not for anyone else
It's an endless story, always shining
Always, I want to tell you, forever

Memories of our time together
Don't erase them, don't go away
Just let them melt warmly, I want to make sure
These drops of tenderness spread out in my heart
I'm missin' you so much it hurts
Our hands overlap, don't let go

If just one wish could be granted
I want to keep singing this song once more
It's an endless story, filled with unceasing love
Tell me why, tell me, forever

I want to keep singing this song
For you, not for anyone else
It's an endless story, always shining
Always, I want to tell you, forever
