Another Great Song To listen To

I found another great song that should have some more recognition. It's a cover song on All I Want For Christmas Is You by NOTA, an  a ceppella group. The beginning of the song starts out very slowly, but as you continue listening the pace picks up and the instruments start. Here it is. Enjoy and comment if you like it!

New Music Blog

I am looking into making another blog that will focus on songs and music, new and older, and almost all styles of music. I am currently running a survey on what URL it should be. Be sure to vote on your favorite! If you also have a new idea for a title, be sure to comment on what it should be. If a comment is sent, I will check to see if it would work. If it could work, I'll add it to the survey. If a comment suggestion wins, I will be sure to have my first post dedicated to the one who commented it. The new blog will launch next year after the survey ends, so if you have an idea make sure to send it in and vote!

The Legend Lives On

I recently saw a music video that Akon did. It was a duet with Micheal Jackson called Hold my Hand. This beautifully constructed duet between Akon and Micheal Jackson really touched me. Here is the video. Hold My Hand Take a look. It seems like the reincarnation of Micheal Jackson has just started. I hope you enjoy it! Comment if you liked it!

Lyrics

Here is the lyrics to yet another song, "Firework" By Katy Perry. Thanks to YouTube user:livesignature2

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag? Drifting throught the wind, wanting to start again. Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin? Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in. Do you ever feel already buried deep? Six feet under scream, but no one seems to hear a thing. Do you know that there's still a chance for you? Cause there's a spark in you. You just gotta ignite the light. And let it shine. Just own the night, like the Fourth of July. 'cause baby you're a firework. Come on show 'em what your worth. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y. Baby you're a firework. Come on let your colors burst. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own. You don't have to feel like a waste of space. You're original, cannot be replaced. If you only knew what the future holds, after a hurricane comes a rainbow. Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed. So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road. Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow. And when it's time, you'll know. You just gotta ignite the light. And let it shine. Just own the night, like the Fourth of July. 'cause baby you're a firework. Come on show 'em what your worth. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y. Baby you're a firework. Come on let your colors burst. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own. Boom, boom, boom. Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon. It's always been inside of you, you, you. And now it's time to let it through. 'cause baby you're a firework. Come on show 'em what your worth. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" As you shoot across the sky-y-y. Baby you're a firework. Come on let your colors burst. Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!" You're gonna leave 'em goin "Oh, oh, oh!" Boom, boom, boom. Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon. Boom, boom, boom. Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon.

That was Katy Perry's "Firework"

Lyrics

Here are the lyrics for Nelly's "Just a dream" From YouTube user: FAMOOUUZ

Oh, Oh, Oh, I was thinkin about her, her. I was thinkin about me, me. I was thinkin about us, us. What we gonna be, be? Opened my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream. so I traveled back, down that road. Will she come back, back, back? No one knows. I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream. I was at the top and I was like I'm at the basement. Number one spot and now she found her a replacement. I swear now I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby. And now you ain't around, baby I can't think. Shoulda put it down. Shoulda got that ring. 'cause I can still feel it in the air. See her pretty face run my fingers through her hair. My lover, my life. My shorty, my wife. She left me, I'm tied. 'cause I knew that it just ain't right. I was thinkin about her,her. Thinkin about me, me. Thinkin about us, us. What we gonna be, be? Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream. So I travel back, down that road. Will she come back, back? No one knows. I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream. When I be ridin man I swear I see her face at every turn. Tryin to get my usher over, I can let it burn. And I just hope she notice she the only one I yearn for. Oh I miss her when will I learn? Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback. Now I'm in the club thinkin all about my baby. Hey, she was so easy to love. But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough. I'm goin through it every time that I'm alone. And now I'm missin, wishin she'd pick up the phone. But she made a decision that she wanted to move one. 'cause I was wrong. And I was thinkin about her,her. Thinkin about me, me. Thinkin about us, us. What we gonna be? Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream. So I travel back, down that road. Will she come back,back? No one knows. I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream. If you ever loved somebody put your hands up. If you ever loved somebody put your hands up. And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything. I said, if you ever loved somebody put your hands up. If you ever loved somebody put your hands up. And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything. I was thinkin about her, her. Thinkin about me, me. Thinkin about us, us. What we gonna be? Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream. So I travel back, down that road. Who she come back? No one knows. I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream. And I was thinkin about her, her. Thinkin about me, me. Thinkin about us, us. What we gonna be? Open my eyes, yeah; it was only just a dream. So I travel back, down that road. Will she come back, back? No one knows. I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream.

That's the lyrics to "Just a Dream" By Nelly. This was his comeback song, and it sure did put him back on top. Thanks again to FAMOOUUZ from YouTube!

Lyrics

In my post before this, I listed a few songs that I found you should listen to at least once. I also said that I would post the lyrics to all the songs on the post afterward, so here it is. Starting with the first and my favorite song, "Just the way you are" By Bruno Mars. I will do each song one at a time on different post.

Oh, Her eyes, her eyes, make the stars look like they're not shining. Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying. And she's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday. Yeah. I know, I know, when I complement her she won't believe me. And it's so, it's so sad to think she don't see what I see. But every time she asks me do I look ok, you know I'll say. When I see your face. There's not a thing I would change, 'cause your amazing just the way you are. And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while. 'cause girl your amazing, just the way you are. Yeah! Her lips, her lips I could kiss them all day if she let me. Her laugh, her laugh, she hates but I think it's so sexy. She's so beautiful, and I tell her everyday. Oh, you know, you know, you know that I would never ask you to change. If perfects what you're searching for then just stay the same. So, don't even bother asking do I look ok, you know I'll say. When I see your face. There's not a thing that I would change 'cause your amazing just the way you are. and when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while. 'cause girl your amazing, just the way you are. The way you are. The way you are. Girl your amazing, just the way you are. When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change 'cause your amazing just the way you are. And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while, 'cause girl your amazing, just the way you are. Yeah!

And that was the lyrics for "Just the way you are"!

Cold Winters and Less Snow?

Record breaking snowfalls hit the D.C. metropolitan area last year. The Farmer's Almanac predicted that last year. If we compare the weather from last year to this year, we look like we are on the track to another good amount of snow. But, the Farmer's Almanac says that this year will have less snow then average for most of the country. The temperatures this winter should also be around average, so can we hope that the almanac is wrong? I think we shouldn't get our hopes up. Snowfalls like that only happen once every many years. The Snopocalypse last year was a huge change for this area. We have never seen that much snow in our area. When people start talking, many hopes are made in kids heart. Then when reality strikes, it's like a stab in the heart. I think we should accept that snowfalls this year will be significantly lower then last year. What does Christmas look like? The 2010 Christmas is shaping up to be a disappointment. The chances of at least one inch on the ground when we wake up on the 25th of December are around 10% for the Metropolitan area. I am very disappointed by this prediction, so I am looking for another Christmas miracle to happen and see another beautiful Christmas. So yes, there will be a cold winter and less snow unless mother nature decided to throw a curve-ball in our direction.

Global Warming

Global warming. Is global warming real? Well, as most people see it, yes. It is real. How do we tell? Studies from numerous top-class scientists, of course! Then there are always the top class scientist that oppose the findings.For example, some leading scientists say that global warming is natural. Like when there were the ice ages. How did we get out of them? Natural global warming. Studies that have been conducted back up their response to the green scientist who show that we are in a man made global warming. It may be true, and understanding their stand point may be the hardest part. They have many supporters who believe that this man made global warming is just a hoax and that too many companies are just using this as a way to swipe money from the average joe who have become poorer because of a slow economy. Is global warming a big concern? Of course it its! Many of the leading nations have been concerned about global warming for a while now, and what have they done? Really, as a whole, they have done a minimal amount of work to solve the problem. Sure they have passed laws and other countries have encouraged green products, but the people have the power when it comes to if we are going to change. If enough people show they care, we could change the natural or man made climate changes. If we conserve what little resources that Earth can provide us with, we could make a change for the better. If we allow Earth to take it's own steps, it might as well just kill us all. Glaciers are melting. Either from man made global warming or natural global warming, there is no doubt that if the glaciers continue to melt, many will die. The sea level will rise and cover even more land. People will be forced to move out of there houses and find shelter else where. What can we do? We can make a change in our life style. Make it a point to try and save our mother Earth. I'm not saying go out there and be an extremest, I'm saying going out there and help save lives. Everyone wants to be a hero for someone. We can be the hero for our next generations. Do we want them to come into a world where there is no room to sleep, no where to go, no world to explore? Now is the time to change. Now is the time to take a stand against global warming. Even if you don't believe that it's because of us that the climates are changing, make a stand against death. Help conduct research, inform friends and family of things they can do. Make this world a better place and become that hero you always wanted to be.
