hello

i'm a sucker for catchy songs, especially those with meaningful lyrics. there's not a singer in the world that i wont listen to as long as the singer sings catchy tunes....the bonus really is when the lyric is meaningful...and for today, here's a song i'm sure the younger members and not so young members (hint hint to that Uncle who's an Akon fan..hehe) would definitely know...hehe...reflect guys...

===========================================================

"Say It Right"
Nelly Furtado

In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand or you fall
When your will is broken
When it slips from your hand
When there's no time for joking
There's a hole in the plan

Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me

I can't say that I'm not lost and at fault
I can't say that I don't love the light and the dark
I can't say that I don't know that I am alive
And all of what I feel I could show
You tonight you tonight

Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me

From my hands I could give you
Something that I made
From my mouth I could sing you another brick that I laid
From my body I could show you a place God knows
You should know the space is holy
Do you really want to go?

hello again

here's the song that got Nelly Furtado famous way back in 2001...i remembered this song quite well as it marked my first ever trip to the US, a few months b4 9/11...how time flies...reflect again guys...hehe

=========================================================

"I'm Like A Bird"
Nelly Furtado

You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never ever fade
You're lovely but it's not for sure
That I won't ever change
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true

I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is, I don't know where my home is
(and baby all I need for you to know is)
I'm like a bird, I'll only fly away
I don't know where my soul is , I don't know where my home is
All I need for you to know is

Your faith in me brings me to tears
Even after all these years
And it pains me so much to tell
That you don't know me that well
And though my love is rare
Though my love is true

It's not that I wanna say goodbye
It's just that every time you try to tell me that you love me
Each and every single day I know
I'm going to have to eventually give you away
And though my love is rare
And though my love is true
Hey I'm just scared
That we may fall through

To those who are into French music, this is the one that I think u guys should consider...very nice song though...

Dragostea din tei

Halo, salut
Sint eu, un haiduc
Si te rog, iubirea mea
Primeste fericirea

Halo,
Sint eu Picasso
Ti-am dat chip
Si sint voinic
Dar sa sti, nu-ti cer nimic

Refr.: Vrei sa pleci, dar
nu ma nu ma iei
Nu ma nu ma iei...
Chipul tau si dragostea
din tei
mi-amintesc de ochii tai

Te sun,
sa-ti spun
Ce simt acum
Alo, iubirea mea,
sint eu, fericirea

alo alo
sint iarasi eu picasso,
ti-am dat chip si sint voinic,

Dar sa sti, nu-ti cer nimic

ahhh, nice to know there are fellow NF fans in MYBENZ here bro SMI...hehehe...my daughter, who's 10yrs old, chided me for liking songs from NF, Black Eyed Peas etc...u know...the 90s onwards singers & groups...hehe....thats the beauty about music...it knows no boundaries..only preference of the listeners.

bro fardell - the only french words/phrases i can muster are very basic...but its a beautiful and expressive language nonetheless...which brings me to this question....where can i go to listen to the song you posted?

Hehehehe very true Pak,I dont limit myself to certain cat of music only..will enjoy all catchy tunes except dangdut hehhehehe.I know nowadays youngsters' preference,latest tune on the air must be from highschool musical 2 Vanessa Hudgens and Zachery blabla...talking bout no boundaries even my 1 year old dauhgter will start dancing whenever I spin my fav song of Linkin Park from Transformer soundtrack,using her own 'german' language that was partly understood,she will demand to repeat the track ..hilarious

Ahhh.. life is a cycle, so are songs. Young people appreciates singers like Michael Bubble and the last time I heard, one uncle booked a ticket for the Beyonce show (and cursing at the dress code imposed on her).

Cheers!!

...also heard from this uncle that there will be a post-show party with Beyonce for the priveledge few. And this party is 'untouchable' by the authority.

Pak Noti, better not to know this uncle lar... for some unobvious reasons.

Smiles!!
