Kiss You

Day 15: A song nobody expects me to like.

Kiss You by One Direction.

HAHAHA K. Yeah, I like it because it's upbeat. You know how I love upbeat music. But I guess I started really liking this song when Yassi Pressman sang this on Kalerki-oke (Pinoy version of Crazy Karaoke). She was riding the rodeo bull while singing this, and it was so funny. She was yelling "OH MY GOD" on every pause. Trust me, it was hilarious. HAHA. LOL. Love ko po si Yassi, and I liked this song because she sang it. AND, because Keso Boys made their rendition, too. Check it out:

Hi Elmo Magalona. Hihi :">

Let the Flames Begin

Day 14: A song I like hearing live.

Let the Flames Begin by Paramore.

OH THE FEELS. I just love live versions of this song. It gives me goosebumps all over. AAAAHHHH. I can't even describe how it makes me feel. OMG. <3

Just watch this video. Headphones on, lights off, full screen, volume on full blast. DO IT! :)

Somewhere, weakness is our strength.

Making Up for Day 13

(Explanation in a different post, promise </3)

Day 13: A song I sing to in the shower.

Better Days by Dianne Reeves.

Haha, yeah. I only have the confidence to sing this when I am in the shower cos I feel like nobody can hear me. See, the bathroom is where I can birit to death and not be ashamed of it. I can sing, yeah, but my voice just won't go as high as when I am in the shower when I sing in front of an audience. It frustrates me... a lot. One day, I will be able to sing this in front of y'all. I'll bring my shower curtain nalang para sure. Heehee :)

Making Up for Day 12

(Explanation in a different post, but I really am sorry for being AWOL. Huhubels)

Day 12: A song that reminds me of my bestfriend.

One and the Same by Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato.

She's Demi, I'm Selena. Ang feeler namin diba. HAHAHA. No, we meant the traits, and all the stuff. Demi sings high notes, and Selena sings low notes, and is more of an alto than a soprano. Demi wears girly stuff, while Selena is into simple clothes. Selena has all the crushes, and Demi gets all the crushes. This is exactly how my bestfriend and I could be described. Like Demi, she's forever single, but blossoms when she has a relationship. Like Selena, I always end up with epic fail relationships. Life sucks, but it's great. Heehee.

Well, the song says it all. I can't believe a song that best describes us (pati yung parts ng both singers) exists! Thank you Demi and Selena. <3

It may seem cliche for me to wanna say that you're not alone. And you can call me uncool, but it's a simple fact. I got your back!

Making Up for Day 10

OMG, I suck Day 9 was late, and now hindi ako umabot for Day 10. I'm sorry. Internet's crappy :( here's Day 10 anyway.

Day 10: A song that makes me cry.

A Little Bit Longer by Nick Jonas.

He wrote this song because of his diabetes. IDK. I don't have diabetes, but I feel like I can relate to the song. A little bit longer, and I'll be fine. Just watch the vid. You'll get what I'm saying.

This song is for every broken heart. For every high, and for every low. And for every person who has ever felt alone. But tonight, this song... This song is for you.

Making up for Day 9

I'm really really sorry I wasn't able to post for day 9 yesterday. The internet was down. So here's my post that was supposedly for September 17.

Day 9: A song that makes me want to dance.

Bye Bye Bye by Nsync.

Of course, y'all probably know by now that JC Chasez was my first love. I still get kilig all over when I listen to his voice, and mind you. I was in cloud 1000 when Nsync reunited for the VMA's and J.T's Vanguard Award. That was a total OMG moment.

So yeah. Bye Bye Bye makes me want to dance, so much. Their dance steps are too catchy. OMG, I know the  steps from the refrain through the hook. And I'm still learning the verses. Yeah, and I am bragging now. Heehee.

Now I've really come to see that life would be much better once you're gone.

Skater Boy

Day 8: A song I liked when I was younger.

Sk8r Boi by Avril Lavigne.

I don't know. I am just into upbeat music. You know. The ones that kinda make you want to dance. Heehee. Anyway. I liked, no, LOVED this song because it shows a rebel side at the end of the video. JOKE. Haha, there's a part kasi when Avril slammed a car's windshield using an electric guitar. Like upbeat music, I am kinda into violence too. I remember saying somewhere in this blog that I am a murderer in the making. Heehee. No worries. I am trying to rid myself of violence now. This is just my jam. :)

Sorry, girl, but you missed out. Well, tough luck, that boy's mine now. We are more than just good friends, and this is how the story ends.

Life is a Roller Coaster

Day 7: A song that is my guilty pleasure.

Life is a Rollercoaster by Ronan Keating.

I just lalaLOVE the way he starts of by "HEY BEYBEEEH"... Mwahaha. Plus, my dad thinks this song sucks because this is not the usual Ronan Keating stuff. Trust me, I find this very very entertaining. Haha. I know it's a classic song already, but this is my jam. I feel like dancing everytime I hear this song.

Okay, this was supposed to be Kiss You by One Direction, but nobody beats my Keating, baby. <3

Two Worlds Collide

Day 6: A song I can always relate to.

Two Worlds Collide by Demi Lovato.

Actually when I was a kid, I could always relate to Mama by Spice Girls. I don't know, maybe because I was a little rebel back then. Now I've grown, and realized serious things, I think this could be my theme song. The two worlds being my two homes.

She was scared, unprepared. Lost in the dark, falling apart. But I can survive with you by my side. This is what happens when two worlds collide.

Yes, I am scared and unprepared. But everytime I feel my two worlds are in perfect harmony, I feel like I can take on anything. "You've given me the strength to find hope."

 You has your dreams, I have mine. You had your fears, I was fine. You showed me what I couldn't find, when two different worlds collide.

Pen and Ink

Day 5: A song that has a new meaning to me everytime I hear it.

Pen and Ink by the late Master Rapper, Francis Magalona. A dad. A legend.

When I first heard this song, I thought, "Hey, that's one hella wordplay!" But as I listen to it more, it became more of a song about Rizal's famous quote, "The pen is mightier than the sword." But then again, as it became one of my favorite songs, it seemed a bit more about expression to me. That you do not need violence in order to express your innermost thoughts and feelings. Write it down. And trust me, once you start expressing, it would be hard to stop :)

"The power of the mind translates into the pen."

I'm With You

Day 4: A song that reminds me of something sad.

I'm With You by Avril Lavigne.

It's a damn, cold night. Trying to figure out this life. Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new. I don't know who you are, but I, I'm with you.

Yes. Sad. I know we all went through our "emo years" when we were young. Hey, back in 2005, emo was cool! But no, I'm not one of those emo chicks, or goth girls. Hell, no. Not that I loathe them, I just ain't one of them. I was just a normal teen trying to battle everyday life with the pieces of a broken family in my pocket. Drama? Yes, too much. This was my theme song while I was busy finding out who I really was. And I can totally say, I was quite a loser back in my younger years. Sobra. I was bullied, and because I didn't fight back, I was always set up, and I often end up being punished for a mistake I didn't do. Yeah. Sad.

"Isn't anyone trying to find me? Won't somebody come take me home?" 

Dear God

Day 2: A song that helps me clear my head.

Dear God by Nick Jonas.

I've been listening to this song since 2009 when I first heard it. Whenever I feel down, or confused, or lost, I just listen to this. It's like an instant prayer. There are times when I would be emotionally drained, like I'm so fed up, and my mind is clouded with all the negative thoughts the world could offer. But I'd just sing along to the lyrics, and utter a simple prayer afterwards. And then, just like magic, I would feel a lot better.

Dear God, won't You send a sign down just to ease my doubt. I'm trying to hear you, but the silence is so loud. I think I see a rainbow from behind the clouds. And I hear you now, Dear God.

Born For This

Day 1: A song that makes me happy.

Born For This by Paramore. Especially the live version from Final Riot, Chicago. I don't know why, but my heart jumps with glee every time I hear Hayley belt out the hook. Oh and I love the intro there, where the band pops out one by one, starting with Josh Farro (My love), followed by Taylor York, then Zac Farro and Jeremy Davis together, and finally, HAYLEY! It's sad that the Farros had to leave the band. But hey, Paramore is still Paramore. :)

"Everybody sing like it's the last song you will ever sing."
