The Tings Tings - We Walk

If you don't know them, they're the ones who sang 'That's Not My Name'. Still don't know? Well...go search them on YouTube ;P. Anyways, this song is unique, as expected from an European group. A getaway for me from all the mainstream songs XD.

Big Bang - Tell Me Goodbye [Translation]

Letting you go...(please somebody)
Letting you go...(please somebody)

No, I got this, yeah
Still I´m thinking about this thing called love
You got me shaken up (please tell me there´s a way)
And it got my head spinnin´ round round round (please tell me there´s a way)
Don´t wanne take a fall, it´s best to rake it all
It´s gonna be better for you, move on, move on (please tell me there´s a way)
Uh uh, we break it, break it or thought we make it, make it
And now we cover it all

Girl, I swear I won´ t even for a second
Cause you any pain
in order to protect you
Because there's no other way

Baby our love itself brings us pain
And I got nothing, nothing to say

Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Those hands that embraced me
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Seem to be letting go
If forgetting me will give you freedom baby
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye

Girl, you know when you lose your smile
I will place the blame on myself
I wake up crying these words, and even the light
I will lose sight of everything else

Baby the moment our lips part this time
I´ll never find better, better than you

Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Those hands that embraced me
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Seem to be letting go
Merely being by my side is not kindness baby
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye

Yo and it´s so, so
Said it just ain´t happening
Wish you could be better
Sorry to be scrapping
But I just can´t let go
To be less than happy
I said look at me
I couldn´t live with myself seeing you like
The thing you deserve
Baby you are superb
Always believe that it hurts
That bleeds, that´s word
I think that I can do
My body is just takes a bigger part of me to be letting you go
I wish that weren´t so

Your voice, pained and fading away, away-ay-ay-ay
Erased completly by the wind, stay, stay-ay-ay-ay
All these things, I can´t take it, those tears, don´t cry for me
Or our sake I´ll never look back again. Eh-eh-eh-ain

Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Those hands that embraced me
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Seem to be letting go
Merely being be my side is not kindness baby
Oh tell me goodbye, oh tell me goodbye
Tell me goodbye

PS: Finally, their first R&B song after a long time... I love this song~ It's different than any other break-up songs. Instead of asking the girl to come back to him, he told her to go further away from him, because he doesn't want to see her being hurt even more.. TT.TT Now that's what I call real love...

Gummy - As a Man [translation]

A new start is always frightening
But at least this time I truly believe it’s love

Trying to be more happy than my painful separation

You and we should promise eternity and swear on it


But frequent interest may give minor pressures

Might get annoyed of the long calls I don’t want to end

You might call the expanding love, obsession

As time goes by I’m getting smaller


Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you wouldn’t know even if you died

Since I’m lacking, Since I’m foolish, I’m only looking at you

Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you don’t understand me

You probably just want to be free, you probably won’t be able to change, because you’re a man


You’re next to me but why does my heart feel empty

Why is it that your words “I love you” don’t sound the same as before

the long waits are getting harder and harder

I think of giving up hundreds of times


I feel uneasy and can’t sleep until you fall asleep

I go crazy when I can’t contact you throughout the night

I’m not a woman who expects many things

But I collapse from one of your inattentive words


Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you wouldn’t know even if you died

Since I’m lacking, Since I’m foolish, I’m only looking at you

Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you don’t understand me

You probably just want to be free, you probably won’t be able to change, because you’re a man


I still feel like when we first met

I flutter in front of your smile

But even these small expressions are nowhere to be found between us

But since you’re a man, since you’re my man I still love you


Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you wouldn’t know even if you died

Since I’m lacking, Since I’m foolish, I’m only looking at you

Since you’re a man, since you’re a man, you don’t understand me

You probably just want to be free, you probably won’t be able to change, because you’re a man

PS: This is a reaaallllyyyyy nice song. Do listen to it! :D

PSS: I love Gummy! X3

Yours and I (Park Bom vs. Jason Mraz)



This is so cute!! I love the songs: Jason Mraz's I'm Yours and Park Bom's You and I, but it never occurred to me that both would go together very well! It's mixed by the previous DJ I mentioned (see the previous post). Enjoy~

Miyavizm~

...oh...em...GEE!!!

It's been so LONG since I'm updated with the J-music world, especially J-Rock. Vamps released 2 singles this year (which are both VERY contrast to each other..), Gackt is involved in another movie project, and Miyavi...MIYAVI!! IS!! MARRIED!!! LAST YEAR!!!!! and guess what? He has a daughter! A FREAKING BABY GIRL!! Only 4 months after his marriage..well, that's expected, but STILL!!!

*ehem* Just so you know, the reason I'm writing in capital letters (aka shouting) is because I'm really surprised, not because of jealousy, hatred bla bla bla. No, not at all. It's because I never expected him to marry so...early? I don't know..it's rare for rockers to marry in their 20s (well, for me la), especially Japanese men when they're all about concentrating on their careers at that particular age..

Anyways, all in all I'm really happy for him. Heck, his wife, Melody, is really pretty! She was a well-known J-pop artist, but retired in 2008 as she wants to focus on becoming a fashion designer. I think she's about the same age as Miyavi, which is yet another surprise, since a married couple usually has a few years of age gap (if not more..). From what I heard from their mutual fans, both seems to have many similarities despite their looks and image. And they seemed to be really happy, especially after they got their first child, Lovelie Miyavi Ishihara. Strange name..I know..but there's a reason behind the name Lovelie, which meant 'The reason of love', or something like that.

I want to post some pics of the happy family but the connection or blogger is messing up --.--+. Really pissed off..

Anyways, Miyavi has released two new songs as well (one in 2009 and another 2010). Here are the two vids respectively. Enjoy~






lol I bet u didn't think I'd listen to these kind of songs. You should have seen or heard my mp3 playlist back when I was 13 or 14! XD Ah, memories~ I think I was much happier back then with my imaginations running wild. Even Kelly Clarkson's "Behind These Hazel Eyes" kept me motivated to write my lotr fanfic. Hehe. Over and out~

PS: Oh, and just to make ur head hurt or spin even more, here's a world tour version of 'Survive' PV. 8D

Mashup and new fav groups!

u

This is one hot mashup I've ever heard :D. If u wanna know more about the DJ, go here:
http://www.masamixes.com/

And this one is my current fav.



Code-V, originally known as Bless back in 2007, made a comeback recently. Back then they failed to gain much attention (heck, I don't even know if they have a single MV back then). Yes, I admit they're not as good-looking as other boy bands. But their vocals really stands out. I've seen many groups debuted recently, but this group managed to stand out (for me at least).

Members:
0:20 - Sang Woo, vocalist
0:36 - Nallo, main vocalist I think.. (both of 'em have worked with SG Wannabe member Lee Seok Hoon and Blue Wind Soul)
0:50 - Taemin, leader (no, not Taemin from SHINee!! lol He used to work as a vocal trainer)
1:04 - Jaewon, rapper (the maknae)
1:06 - Sol, vocalist (was a singer/songwriter for an indie rock band)

I don't have a fav member in this group (hey, it's a compliment. I like every one of 'em!), but I like Nallo's smooth vocals~

Note: If you have listened to Insomnia by Craig David or Wheesung (whichever version you like), you might hear similarities with this song. I think it's just a coincidence that they have the same style...ah well. At least their vocals are great :D.

Next, is one of the latest girl groups that debuted:




...Well, no need to write their names here lol. There's nothing outstanding about this group actually..though I'm amazed with Hyo Lyn's talent. Even onstage she seems to stand out from the rest since she contributed most of the vocals.

So yeah, that's it from me for today. Over and out~ XD
