My friend has been telling me to leave Bruce alone. Lol! I guess its a new addiction. I recently bought his greatest hits album - Japanese version was a lot cheaper, hence, the whole sleeve is in Japanese so i can't read it! Anyway, this song just screamed out to me because I find myself kind of stuck in a rot at this very moment.<br /><br />From the minute I heard the first verse, it got my attention</span><em><br /></div></em><em><blockquote><p><span style="font-family:times new roman;">I get up in the evening, and I ain't got nothing to say</span></em></p><br /><p><em><span style="font-family:times new roman;">I come home in the moring, I go to bed feeling the same way</span></em></p><br /><p><em><span style="font-family:times new roman;">I ain't nothing but tired, man I'm just tired and bored with myself</span></em></p><br /><p><em><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Hey there baby, I could use just a little help</span></em></p><br /><p><em><span style="font-family:times new roman;">You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without a spark</span></em></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:times new roman;"><em>This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark </em><br /></span></p></blockquote><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:times new roman;">Ahh...just needing to find that spark to set things off.

I never thought I would ever say that about Solange Knowles...I just had her in my head as Beyonce's little sister. But it seems like she's out from under B's spotlight and has carved out her own niche. Her vocal range isn't as impressive as B's but I love that raspy thing she has going on in 'I decided'. </span></div><br /><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"></span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:times new roman;">This album is a collection of 60s and 70s influenced R&B songs. The first single 'I decided' has really grown on me and I think its just hot. The song samples hand claps from The supremes' 1963 recording 'Where did our love go'. 'Sandcastle disco', the second single is a lot more pop-tastic. My other favourites are T.O.N.Y, White picket dreams and F* the industry (signed sincerely). </span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:times new roman;"></span> </div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:times new roman;">If you like Classic R&B, you must check it out! </span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442183189831718702.post-27797119667923465542008-06-08T00:28:00.000-07:002008-06-08T01:04:59.960-07:00'Keep it Loose, Keep it Tight' By Amos Lee<div align="justify"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO2ooGKmmUZ9-WwmeNAypFy2wCEI_wRW7f5biP04ZtfQJd_upEX5L4YU0tEwH0cDdr0HaJM8fHXM_ipW7z5FN7HZqs1cLfkpqohyD_s_wyngR22mjtUV4Nj8JuMUzeqoCy3kdM-qEld1E/s1600-h/amos+lee.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5209409745243084706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO2ooGKmmUZ9-WwmeNAypFy2wCEI_wRW7f5biP04ZtfQJd_upEX5L4YU0tEwH0cDdr0HaJM8fHXM_ipW7z5FN7HZqs1cLfkpqohyD_s_wyngR22mjtUV4Nj8JuMUzeqoCy3kdM-qEld1E/s400/amos+lee.jpg" border="0" /></a> Hello out there, its been a while!!

I know he's successful and has <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">notoriety</span> but i still think he's really <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">underrated</span>. </div><div align="justify"> </div><div align="justify">The song 'Keep it Loose, Keep it tight' is pretty much self explanatory. It's about how people can lose sight of who they are and how money changes everyone for better or worse and how ultimately we are all the same.

One of my favourite Marley songs 'Waiting in Vain' just came up so <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">that's</span> what you are getting today. </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Its a simple song but there is just something about it. Annie <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Lennox</span> and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">floetry</span> did a cover of this song but i would really like to see someone like John Mayer put his stamp on this song. I think his wicked guitar skills could totally kill it! </div><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">Press Play to listen.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442183189831718702.post-66873713390118076262008-05-05T13:09:00.001-07:002008-05-06T14:53:47.853-07:00'Music' by Joss Stone Feat Lauryn Hill<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWKfgzByD4QU7LRUqqs72E97p5sRygt4MITRG6Ot9Z17jGtuT1JFTM79SJKs6rriWXZqXKjy1aWCaaUc3YRb7yQXsCxAIwPrAFxPF_RzL3fFXbxdW2C7yCpK1OyOWzw7EJlXR_CUJ5jIw/s1600-h/200px-Introducing_Joss_Stone_album_cover.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5197386367146680978" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWKfgzByD4QU7LRUqqs72E97p5sRygt4MITRG6Ot9Z17jGtuT1JFTM79SJKs6rriWXZqXKjy1aWCaaUc3YRb7yQXsCxAIwPrAFxPF_RzL3fFXbxdW2C7yCpK1OyOWzw7EJlXR_CUJ5jIw/s400/200px-Introducing_Joss_Stone_album_cover.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div align="justify">What's more fitting as my first post than this song? It's been out there for a while now but i only had it two months ago. I'm not a big fan of Joss Stone because most of the time she seems a little crazy and not quite with it, like she thinks she is re-incarnate of a 60s diva (lol! my mean streak). However, it is impossible for me to knock her talents as a musician and at the end of the day, isn't that what its all about...the MUSIC! </div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">The song 'music' is off her third studio album, 'Introducing Joss Stone' and features Lauryn Hill. I love the tempo of the song and the lyrics pretty much describe how i would feel if it was suddenly pronounced that music is hence banished from the world...ok I wouldnt go as far as giving up my soul. I guess you could also interprete the lyrics as being about a person (i aint never been that high on anyone!). Some lines in the song also evoke thought about God and the way God feels towards us..."No limit to your mind/Your endless love is open/To every race and kind/Could it be your blood runs golden".</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">In an interview with VH1, Joss Stone said: "I really think that everybody goes through life looking for love in all the wrong places? in human beings. Unconditional love is impossible to get from a human being, but it's not impossible to get from music." </div><br /><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">Listen to the track in the playlist in the sidebar. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
