Music is a really important and always-present thing in my life. Everything seems easier with a good song in background and if the lyric is as good as the tune it's just perfect. I do listen commercial music and i actually listen a bit of every kind of music. But there's only a couple of singers/songwriters that really gets straight to my heart. I would share with you some of them.
I would say Adele is my favorite woman singer. She's so deep and her voice gets really emotional on me. The album 21, is just amazing. Love every single track, i would say that "Crazy for you" is my favorite at the moment, though.
I keep on trying, fighting these feelings away, but the more i do, the crazier i turn into.
As i already let you know, my ABSOLUTE favourite, singer in the WHOLE world is Paolo Nutini. I can't help my self of loving him. Love the tunes, the lyrics, his voice, simply everything. I find my self in every word he sings. His new album is coming out soon, i'm so looking forward for that. From the past two albums he published "These Street" and "Sunny Side Up" i couldn't chose my favorite song, i love all of them. Lately the one i listen more often at is "Coming Up Easy" from his second cover.
It was in love i was created and in love is how i hope i die.
Not long ago, i discovered a new English folk group, that is amazing: the Mumford and Sons. I don't know them really well yet, but i love all the tracks i listened to. My favorite is "Hold On What You Believe". They defenitely deserve to be with my favorites.
But hold on to what you believe in the light When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight.
The group i just mentioned involves me emotionally. The last group i'll talk about tonight will be "The Black Keys". They are soooooo good. They make my day be better as soon as i listen the start of one of their tunes, i just want to dance and sing out as loud as i can. They have a great impact on my mood: always make me feel better.
It was a happy way to say goodnight, to you, world.
Today i feel ispired by a song. I had it in my mind all day, and i've been thinking a lot about the lyrics. This song, as most of you'll know, is originally from Michael Jackson. I choosed James Morrison's version though, because this version just makes me go nuts.
James Morrison is one of my favorite singers, and i just love the way he sings this song.
Well, the word change, can have a different meaning for each of us. Everybody has something they would change and everyone's life is subject to changes and not always is our choice. Sometimes i actually think that changes are never our choice. Sometimes you work as hard as you can to make something happened but anything seem to work and than all of a sudden events take over your life.
Are changes really a product of our actions?
But what if we where sure we could actually change things, change our fates, our lifes. And most of all, what about we had the certainty we could be the real change for someone else.
Well, we cannot know that, but is that fair stop trying making a change only because you are not sure you'll actually get to the poit you want to?
Sometimes we are so busy making changes in our lifes, or trying to, that we miss the fact that maybe we should revise the whole situation from a bigger poit of view. We are so busy looking at our lifes that we are completely blind for everything around us. Sometimes we pretend not to see, only because it's easier. But unfortunatelly the easy way, is not always the right way.
I think that what stops people from trying is fear. Fear of failure and most of all of being judge for their failure.
And here we get to the other point: we should not judge; we should instead watch ourselfs in the mirror.
I belive we can really be the writer of our destiny but sometimes we could do much more to write the destiny of people that haven't got a pen as well.
I'm gonna make a change,
for once in my life
It's gonna feel real good,
gonna make a diference
Gonna make it right...
As I, turn up the collar on
my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the streets,
with not enought to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs
A summer disregard, somebody's broken heart
And a one man soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got no place to go
That's why I want you to know
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone
