Lips Of An Angel



This will be my song of the week.
Such a nice song, but this is definitely not from the 90's.
Could be from the last 2 years. Sighh..times passes by...
With the lips of an angel...gosh..it was beautiful...And I...never wanna say goodbye...
Ya rite...I believe all of us have our own love story...
whether its something bitter or sweet

-If I could talk, I'd tell you..-



"Lips Of An Angel" by Hinder


Honey why 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 girl's 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 girl's 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 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 hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel


Honey why you calling me so late?

Dreams

This is among the best of Cranberries
(of coz a lot of numbers from Cranberries are damn good to me).
From their 1st album, along with the evergreen ‘Linger’.
This song meant a lot, all of the lyrics and all of the music. This is when I know that ah..the world is actually beautiful..and life is so wonderful.
Why?, as there is someone you’re falling into and love is everywhere.
It was so beautiful to be mentioned. Cant describe those feelings but I know that each time I wake-up in the morning, I knew that its gonna be a beautiful day..
Well, those are my dream, the most beautiful dream, I’d ever had and its always been beautiful to me….always…



"Dreams" by Cranberries
Oh, my life is changing everyday,
In every possible way.
And oh, my dreams,
It's never quite as it seems,
Never quite as it seems.
I know I've felt like this before, but now
I'm feeling it even more,
Because it came from you.
And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me,
A different way to be.
Ah, la da ah...La...
I want more
Impossible to ignore,
Impossible to ignore.
And they'll come true,
Impossible not to do,
Impossible not to do.
And now I tell you openly,
You have my heart so don't hurt me.
You're what I couldn't find.
A totally amazing mind,
So understanding and so kind,
You're everything to me.
Oh, my life,
Is changing every day,
In every possible way.
And oh, my dreams,
It's never quite as it seems,
'Cause you're a dream to me,
Dream to me....

Disco 2000

This song may not known to many.
But, somehow, it was made known to me. It was way back in 95/96 i guess..where the year 2000 still not in the picture (i cant even imagine of being 'me' at that time)
Thats why the lyrics goes sumting like: 'lets all meet up in the year 2000".
I love this song, the music will jumps me up, each time am listening to it, really...especially, when i'm driving..yihaa...
Well, this reminds me on sumting too...
"Disco 2OOO" by Pulp
Well we were born within one hour of each other.
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother.
Your name is Deborah. Deborah…
It never suited ya…
And they said that when we grew up
We'd get married, and never split up
Ow we never did it,
Although I often thought of it.
Oh Deborah do you recall...
Your house was very small with wood chip on the wall
When I came around to call you didn't notice me at all..
I said, let's all meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road
I never knew that you'd get married.
I would be living down here on my own
On that damp and lonely
Thursday years ago.
You were the first girl at school to get breasts.
And Martyn said that yours were the best.
The boys all loved you but I was a mess.
I had to watch them trying to get you undressed.
We were friends but that was as far as it went.
I used to walk you home.
Sometimes, that it meant
Ow, it meant nothing to you
Cause you were so, popular.
Ah Deborah do you recall.
Your house was very small with woodchip on the wall.
When I came around to call you didn't notice me at all...
I said let's all meet up in the year 2000
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road
I never knew that you'd get married.
I would be living down here on my own
On that damp and lonely
Thursday years ago.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.

Ah do you recall.
Your house was very small with wood chip on the wall.
When I came around to call you didn't notice me at all...
I said let's all meet up in the year 2000.
Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown.
Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road.
I never knew that you'd get married.
I would be living down here on my own
On that damp and lonely
Thursday years ago.

Oh what are you doing on Sunday baby.
Would you like to come and meet me maybe
You can even bring your baby.
Ohhh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh.

What do you do on Sunday baby
Would you like to come and meet me baby
You can even bring your baby.

Ooh ooh oh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh. Ooh…
I know we'll never meet again but I want you to know
Want you to know, that I remember every single thing.

With or Without You

My first favorite number from U2.
This song has its own energy and rhythm which thrills me.
"With Or Without You" by U2
See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side.
I wait for you.
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you.

Through the storm, we reach the shore
You gave it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you.
I can't live with or without you.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

My hands are tied, my body bruised
She got me with nothing to win
And nothing else to lose.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you.

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you.

Come As You Are

Another favorite number from Nirvana, from the Nevermind album.
This is way back in ’92; those of Nirvana’s glory dayz, when ‘Smell Like Teen Spirit’ hit the world.




"Come As You Are" by Nirvana

Come as you are, as you were,
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend,
As an old enemy.
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend,
As an old memoria
Memoria (x3)
Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend,
As an old memoria
Memoria (x3)
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (x2)
Memoria (x3)
Memoria...
And I don't have a gun
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun (x4)
Memoria (x2)

Higher

One of my fav song somewhere in 2001/2002 or earlier, I cant recall much.
This is from Creed's first album. Creed has come out with few good songs. Too bad the group did not sustained.
"Higher" by Creed
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the
Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
So lets go there, lets go there,
Come on, lets go there
Lets ask can we stay?
Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine....
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets

Freshmen

Love to humm this song, even till today.
One of the best song in '97.

"The Freshmen" by The Verve Pipe

When I was young I knew everything
She a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken,
Sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice, no...

I can't be held responsible
She was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me, I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

My best friend took a week's
Vacation to forget her
His girl took a weeks's worth of
Valium and slept

And now he's guilt stricken sobbing with his
Head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really
Wept he says...

I can't be held responsible
She was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen
hey yeah hey yeahhey yeah

We've tried to wash our hands of all this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt stricken sobbing with our
Heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say...

I can't be held responsible
She was touching her face
And I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think that we were wise and
We'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sins
We were merely freshmen

We were merely freshmen
We were merely freshmen
We were only fresmen

November Rain


"November Rain: by Guns' N' Roses


When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain


We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away...


If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine.....


So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain


Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone

Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone


I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you


Sometimes I need some time...on my own
Sometimes I need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone


And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, ohhh yeahhh
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame


So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain


Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody


You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Misery


Another fav. song.
May be these songs are bit of outdated.
Maybe need to mention that some of these songs are posted according to their release. Means that I'll post my good 'ol days songs up to my recent favour.
Maybe some are wondering...or some may never heard the songs.
But, I just dont care, these are my songs of life anyway...
"Misery" by Soul Asylum
They say misery loves company
We could start a company and make misery
Frustrated, incorporated
Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what you'd pay to see
Put me out of my misery
I'd do it for you, would you do it for me
We will always be busy making misery
We could build a factory and make misery
Well create the cure, we made the disease
Frustrated, incorporated
Frustrated, incorporated
Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what youd pay to feel
Put me out of my misery
All you suicide kings and you drama queens
Forever after happily, making misery
Did you satisfy your greed, get what you need
Was it only envy, so empty
Frustrated, incorporated
Frustrated, incorporated
Frustrated, incorporated (put me out of my misery)
Frustrated, incorporated (Id do it for you, would you do it for me)
Frustrated, incorporated (forever after happily)
Frustrated, incorporated (making misery)

1979

Again, one of my favourite song since '95/'96.
The music is cool, so as the music video. This reminds me of my childhood and life passes me. (though can recalled much in 1979, hehe..)
But, the song is just lovely.


"1979" by Smashing Pumpkin

Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet

Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slipping dues down to see

That we don't even care as restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go,
Beneath the sound of hope...

Justine never knew the rules
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I know you better than you fake it
To see that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues

And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of now
As you can see there's no one around.....

All I Want Is You

Love this song...love the movie (Reality Bites) for always....
Watched this movie again and again..it is so cool, sweet and touches me somewhere. I'd even keep the soundtrack, so many cool songs such as Stay by Lisa Loeb, I'm Nuthin' by Ethan Hawke and My Sharona, etc..


The above scene is exactly where 'All I Want is U' is in the background.


This movie would always remind me of something beautiful that happened to me....

"All I Want Is You" by U2


You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you...

You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it
Treasure, just to look upon it
All the riches in the night

You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave
When all I need is you.

You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold

All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.....


Ethan Hawke and Winona looks so lovely, adore them so much.

Dumb

And finally, here comes sumting from Nirvana. Just so many beautful songs, so i picked one which i'd love to listen recently. This piece is from "In Utero" album. the one that I loved most.

"Dumb" by Nirvana

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy....

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And have a hangover

Have a hangover...

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
My day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy...

I think I'm dumb...



One

Love this song, by U2. Just nice. It is from the album "Achtung Baby'.
My fav. group besides Nirvana.
If I ever got nothing to do at home, I'll simply watch their Dvd-Live in Milan, damn cool...
I may be pretty 'senior' for Metallica and no way for Nirvana to perform world tour no more.
So, would always wish for U2 to drop here in KL, no matter when, and where...
"One" by U2
Is it getting better, or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you, now you got someone to blame?
You say one love, one life, when it's one need in the night.
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it.
Did I disappoint you or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight to drag the past out into the light.
We're one, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other... one
Have you come here for forgiveness,
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got.
We're one, but we're not the same.
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again.
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got, when all you got is hurt.
One love, one blood, one life, you got to do what you should.
One life with each other: sisters, brothers.
One life, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other.
One, one....

Estranged


During my good 'ol dayz, this is a must song on each beginning of my days.
I thinks this song has its own inspiration.
I'd love to listen to the musics and the lyrics as well, it is full with energy.


"Estranged" by Guns' N' Roses

When you're talkin to yourself
And nobody's home
You can't fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby
How it is gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

ONE, TWO

Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart...

I don't know how you're s'posed
To find me lately
An what more could you ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself and nobody's home
(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby
How it is gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day

With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground
And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm getting closer
And the waves they get so high
Seems everything
We've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die
I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time...
Oh this time
Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die...

Like A Stone


Another killer song...this is by Audioslave; somewhere in 2003/2004?, cant really recall...
Chris Cornell is always one of my fav. singer, from the Soundgarden era, till the Audioslave.
"Like A Stone" by Audioslave
On a cobweb afternoon
In a room full of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

(chorus)
In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
Alone

On my deathbed
I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on

(chorus)
In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone
I'll wait for you there
Alone

And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wander on

wherever i may roam
