Some Nights - Fun.




This is a group by the name of Fun. !!  Ok easy to remember..

This song has a great beat to it and is a mix to me of different styles of music.  

i hear a little gospel , bluegrass , rock , African and some rap was put into this song.

i Love the Ohhhhh's in this song!! 

i love the first part of the lyrics when he says " i wish that my lips could build a castle"



LYRICS
Some nights, I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights, I call it a draw
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...
oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh

This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked, but here they come again to jack my style

And that's alright; I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? Oh, who am I? mmm... mmm...

Well, some nights, I wish that this all would end
Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights, I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights, I always win, I always win...

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... (come on)

So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?

No. When I see stars, when I see, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this one, so come on
Oh, come on. Oh, come on, OH COME ON!

Well, this is it guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This one is not for the folks at home; Sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the fuck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?

My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she call "love"
But when I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible lies...ahhh...

oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh

The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...

a seed will grow







A Seed Will Grow

A day where blue seeps through the trees.
my mind floats aimlessly about
with the cottonwood seed.
the air blowing this white cloud of army
surrendering it self to the wind.
travelers floating in the abyss
 not knowing its destination.
i hold out my hand to let one come to rest
in my palm... but only for a fleeting moment
it has a long journey to go... but where?
do we care where it is going
i care where it is going..
This little package has great things ahead of it
this seed will take place in this
 vast world to grow roots.
 for one day it will
come full circle and let go 
of its seeds
so they can learn to fly and find its
way once more in the palm of my hand.

My Son

My son turned 20 yesterday. i look to him now and look back over the years to remember trying to raise this little seed.
i wish i could say it has been easy, it certainly had its moments. i wish i could say he graduated with honors and is going to a fine college. i listen to others when they tell me how well their kids are doing but my son will never get to no scholar. I'm still a proud parent,which all of us should be. i see the cottonseed before me and realize this is my son. The seed is very small and surrounded by fibers of white fluff. i have been this white fluff from the very beginning protecting this little seed and carrying it to where it needed to go.
My son from the beginning showed signs that he had trouble dealing with emotions. Uncontrollable at times. Since kindergarten we have had to spend many hours seeing doctors,teacher conferences, IEP's, testing, diagnosing, medications. OH! the countless hours and hours trying to deal with his emotional problem, but i never gave up. i knew one day he will find his place and grow his roots. i think that time has finally come. he got a job at a factory working with steel and aluminum sheet metal. This will be his 4th job he has gotten. The first three he quit within a week because he got upset. i worried he might never be able to hold done a job, but with a stern talking he knew he had to learn to deal with life issues and he needed to become a man.
He is loving this new job and is learning how to work with others. i look at my son with crying eyes and a swollen heart, for I know this seed is starting to grow his roots.

Alanis Morissette - Guardian (LISTEN!!)

My life is so complete when I turn on a radio to hear a new song that takes me to unbelievable heights!!

I'm on it's harmonic wave link and it makes me soar through every emotion.  

This song is beautifully uplifting and has me soaring from the moment I hear her voice. 

Her new album drops in August.

philip philips

Even tho I stopped watching American Idol two years ago.  I am still able to pick who is going to win the show.  I only watched one clip of Philip Philips in the beginning but knew just by hearing him, he would win.  I have been able to pick the winner since American Idol 2, or at least the top 2, but even now with out watching one show I was able to still pick the winner.

I have come to realize it doesn't matter who wins it any more.  Even some of the winners don't make it big in the music business.  There have been others that place 4th and do better than the one who won the show.   Only time will tell if Philip will make it like Kelly and Carrie.


I will admit I was suprised by the song that they had Philip put out as his first single.
Not a bad song but  "Really!"  Come on American Idol.  I don't care for the chorus part, The song didn't need the ho ho's and Ah ah's. True I'm seeing comments where people are saying it sounds like Coldplay. Yes it sounds like a Coldplay song but I don't see why people get upset when another artist sounds like another group, who cares.




I do hope they have him put out more songs like this one.
