I Can't Make You Love Me

There are many versions of this song and all of them are beautiful as simply it's such a beautiful song. However this version is my favourite. George Michael has such a gorgeous voice, it's such a shame he no longer sings regularly.

To George Michael, please get better the world is such a better place with your voice in it.

Alicia Keys - Un-thinkable (I'm Ready)




Loving this song at the moment.


Moment of honesty
Someone's gotta take the lead tonight
Whose it gonna be?
I'm gonna sit right here
And tell you all that comes to me
If you have something to say
You should say it right now 


You ready?


You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I think I deserve it 
It's becoming something that's impossible to ignore
And I can't take it


I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
If you ask me I'm ready 
If you ask me I'm ready


I know you once said to me
"This is exactly how it should feel when it's meant to be"
Time is only wasting so why wait for eventually?
If we gon' do something 'bout it
We should do it right now


You give me a feeling that I never felt before
And I deserve it, I know I deserve it
Its becoming something that's impossible to ignore
It's what we make it


I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me I'm ready
If you ask me I'm ready


Why give up before we try
Feel the lows before the highs
Clip our wings before we fly away
I can't say I came prepared
I'm suspended in the air
Won't you come be in the sky with me


I was wondering maybe
Could I make you my baby
If we do the unthinkable would it make us look crazy
Or would it be so beautiful either way I'm sayin'
If you ask me I'm ready
If you ask me I'm ready
f you ask me I'm readyIf you ask me I'm ready

Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead

Feeling a bit emotional tonight as I hear this song .......



I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, "
Yeah

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah




Adele's 21

Tonight is an easy Sunday evening and I'm just chilling as I watch Adele's Concert DVD. While watching all those emotions I had resurfaced. During the early stages of the breakdown of my marriage I listened to this album a lot, I mean a lot. I like any other woman going through heartbreak I thought every single song was written for me especially. All the songs were relevant to my situation and I would listen to it all the time and everywhere. In the house , in the car, on my iPhone, everywhere ! Of course the tears were not far whenever the songs were played. Well it is a break up album. 

In particular it was this song Take It All that brought out the most tears. Listen to it and you would understand. It truly is a beautiful song and I can imagine Adele's pain when writing it. Till now I will still get misty eyed when I hear it.



However not all the songs are about sadness and love lost. This song One and Only is about a new relationship or rather convincing a new love that you're worth it. I hope one day I will be able to sing this to someone too :)

Close but No Cigar


There you have it fans of American Idol, Big Mike got eliminated !!! Despite his powerful vocals (especially on this song) he got voted off and instead Casey with the so so voice got into top 3.
Does this elimination reflects the demographics of the voters for American Idol ? Young, white, teenage girls ? Or is it just the fact that Americans are still racists ? Out of 8 previous winners of American Idol only 2 are black and we all know how talented African Americans are when it comes to singing ...... sigh.

Fortunately this doesn't mean it's the end for Big Mike, as seen in past "losers" of AI that are more successful now then the winners. I know I won't be buying this year's Idol winner's CD whoever of the 3 it is but when Big Mike's album comes out I'll be the first in line ;)

Lisa Fischer - How Can I Ease The Pain - Music Video

Do you remember this song ? If you do you're as old as I am !!!!! hahahahaha
I used to love this song, it was even nominated in the Grammys. I wonder what happened to Lisa Fischer.

Chanté Moore - Bitter


Chante Moore is a great singer that has some how gone beneath the radar of most R&B fans as she is not featured on MTV. I was introduced to her music by a friend in 1994 and has since been buying her CDs. This unfortunately has been quite difficult as most of the time they are not available in Malaysia.

This is a great song originally by the Isley Brothers and this version is even better with Fourplay and Chaka Khan .
