Broken Hearted - Karmin

Well, I think this single should be 2012's song of summer instead of Carly Rae Jepsen's ridiculous song Call Me Maybe. Share this post on Twitter if you agree with me.

This is more than a typical kinda thing
Felt the joints in my bones where you were touching me, oh oh
Didn't want to take it slow
In a daze, going crazed, I can barely think
You're replaying in my brain, find it hard to sleep, oh oh
Waiting for my phone to blow

Now I'm here in a sticky situation
Got a little trouble, yep and now I'm pacing
Five minutes, ten minutes, now it's been an hour
Don't wanna think too hard, but I'm sour

Oh oh, I can't seem to let you go

See I've been waiting all day
For you to call me baby
So let's get up, let's get on it
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Come on, that's right
Honest baby I'll do
Anything you want to
So can we finish what we started
Don't you leave me broken hearted tonight
Come on, that's right

What's the time, such a crime
Not a single word, sippin on the patrone
Just to calm my nerves, oh oh
Poppin' bottles by the phone
Oh yeah
Pat me up, pat me down, turn me inside out
That's enough, pull me up
Baby I'm in doubt
I don't even think you know, no no

Repeat Chorus

Anything you wanna do, I'll be on it too
Everything you say, it's like a gold with a view
Business on the front, party in the back
Maybe I was wrong, was the alfa really wack
This kinda thing doesn't happen usually
I'm on the opposite side of it, truthfully
I know you want it so come and get it

Repeat Chorus

Climax - Usher

Climax is the first single from Usher's seventh studio album Looking 4 Myself. In my opinion, "Climax" is a sound that Usher should explore more often.

Going nowhere fast
We've reached the climax
We're together, now we're undone
Won't commit so we choose to

Run away, do we separate (oh)
Don't wanna give in
So we both gave up
Can't take it back
It's too late we've reached the climax, climax

I've fallen somehow, feet off the ground
Love is the blow, that keeps raining down
Where are you now? When I need you around
I'm on my knees but it seems we're

Going nowhere fast
We've reached the climax
We're together, now we're undone
Won't commit so we choose to

Run away, do we separate (oh)
Don't wanna give in
So we both gave up
Can't take it back
It's too late we've reached the climax, climax

I gave my best, it wasn't enough
You kept on saying we argue too much
We made our best of what used to be love
Why do I care, I care at all, at all, at all, at all

Repeat Chorus

You say, it's better if we love each other separately
I just need you one more time
I can't get what we had out my mind
Where are you now? When I need you around
I'm on my knees but it seems we're

Repeat Chorus




With Climax, Diplo shows uncharacteristic subtlety behind Usher's sentiment. Share with your friends on Google+ or Facebook if you like this R&B song.

Astronaut

I've just realized I posted only one post each past two months. So I'm not going to let this happen again. My pick today is the third single taken from Simple Plan's fourth studio album Get Your Heart On! Please share this post on Google + if you like the song.

"Astronaut"

Can anybody hear me?
Or am I talking to myself?
My mind is running empty
In the search for someone else
Who doesn't look right through me.
It's all just static in my head
Can anybody tell me why I'm lonely like a satellite?

'Cause tonight I'm feeling like an astronaut
Sending SOS from this tiny box
And I lost all signal when I lifted up
Now I'm stuck out here and the world forgot
Can I please come down? (come down)
'Cause I'm tired of drifting around and round (and round)
Can I please come down?

I'm deafened by the silence
Is it something that I've done?
I know that there are millions
I can't be the only one who's so disconnected
It's so different in my head.
Can anybody tell me why I'm lonely like a satellite?

Repeat Chorus

Now I lie awake and scream in a zero gravity
And it's starting to weigh down on me.
Let's abort this mission now
Can I please come down?

So tonight I'm calling all astronauts
All the lonely people that the world forgot
If you hear my voice come pick me up
Are you out there?
'Cause you're all I've got!

And tonight I'm feeling like an astronaut
Sending SOS from this tiny box
And I lost all signal when I lifted up
Now I'm stuck out here and the world forgot

'Cause tonight I'm feeling like an astronaut
Sending SOS from this tiny box
To the lonely people that the world forgot
Are you out there?
'Cause you're all I've got!

Can I please come down?
'Cause I'm tired of drifting round and round.
Can I please come down? [x3]

First post of April: Domino

Wow, it has been one month since my last post. It's April now and summer is coming. I am so excited. That's why I've picked a powerful tune for this post. Please share it on Twitter if you love the song.

"Domino"

I'm feeling sexy and free
Like glitter's raining on me
You're like a shot of pure gold
I think I'm 'bout to explode

I can taste the tension like a cloud of smoke in the air
Now I'm breathing like I'm running cause you're taking me there
Don't you know? You spin me out of control

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
We can do this all night
Damn this love is skin tight
Baby, come on
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Boom me like a bass drum
Sparkin' up a rhythm
Baby, come on!
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Rock my world into the sunlight
Make this dream the best I've ever known
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

Every second is a highlight
When we touch don't ever let me go
Dirty dancing in the moonlight
Take me down like I'm a domino

You got me losing my mind
My heart beats out of time
I'm seeing Hollywood stars
You strum me like a guitar

I can taste the tension like a cloud of smoke in the air
Now I'm breathing like I'm running cause you're taking me there
Don't you know? You spin me out of control

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
We can do this all night
Damn this love is skin tight
Baby, come on
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Boom me like a bass drum
Sparkin' up a rhythm
Baby, come on!
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Repeat Chorus

Ooh, baby, baby, got me feeling so right
Ooh, baby, baby, dancing in the moonlight

Repeat Chorus

It Will Rain - Bruno Mars

Wow, March has come and this is my first post of this month. It Will Rain is a single from the soundtrack of the film The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1.

"It Will Rain"

If you ever leave me, baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,
We don't have it anymore.

There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm making
To keep you by my side
To keep you from walkin' out the door.

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, rain

I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Ooh, if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Sayin' "There goes my little girl
Walkin' with that troublesome guy"

But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Ooh, but little darlin' watch me change their minds
Yeah for you I'll try I'll try I'll try I'll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make you mine

Repeat Chorus

Oh, don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye),
Don't you say (don't you say) goodbye (goodbye)
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same, if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain...

I like this song very much. The ghostly backing vocals late in the song are particularly effective.

My first 2012 post: Where Do Broken Hearts Go

Wow, it has been 5 months since my last post. Can you believe it? This is my first post in 2012. Everybody is talking about Whitney Houston this week, so I've picked her song for this special entry.

Where Do Broken Hearts Go

I know it's been some time
But there's something on my mind
You see, I haven't been the same
Since that cold November day...
We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately...

So here I am
And can you please tell me... oh

Chorus

Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that's waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won't they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me

I've been around enough to know
That dreams don't turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can't run away...
And what we have is so much more
Than we ever had before
And no matter how I try
You're always on my mind

Repeat Chorus

And now that I am here with you
I'll never let you go
I look into your eyes
And now I know, now I know...

Repeat Chorus
