Music video out for Graffiti 6′s “Stare into the Sun”, lead vocals one of my favourites – Jamie Scott from Jamie Scott & The Town who I got a pleasure of meeting at SingFest 2 years back.
Stare into the Sun
Stare into the sun, stare into the sun
I’m gonna stare into the sun, stare into the sun
The ain’t a cloud in the sky, no nothing
I see the birds they fly on something
This is the summer, it’s the summer, full of colour baby
The sun is shining down for lovers
But not for me, it shines for others
You gave me love, babe
Gave me love, babe, now it’s over
I’m feeling blue ’cause love is gone
Guess I lose, but life goes on
I’ve got a few tears to dry
Before these blue shade days are gone
And I can stare into the sun
I’m gonna swim in seas of green, I tell you
I’m gonna run like I’m seventeen, forever
I see a rainbow, purple and gold, but it’s covered
Oh yeah, ’cause there’s a cloud,
she follows me round, wherever
Her last words keep raining down, on shelter
You took your love babe, took your love babe
Now the colors are melt together
I’m feeling blue, ’cause love is gone
I guess I lose, but life goes on
I’ve got a few tears to dry,
before these blue shade days are gone
And I can stare into the sun
Stare into the sun, stare into the sun
I’m gonna stare into the sun, stare into the sun
You gave me love, babe, gave me love, babe
You gave me love and took it away
You gave me love, babe, gave me love, babe
You gave me love and took it away
You gave me love, babe, gave me love, babe
You gave me love and took it away
You gave me love, babe, gave me love, babe
Oh man, I said oh lord
I’m feeling blue, ’cause love is gone
I guess I lose, but life goes on
I’ve got a few tears to dry,
before these blue shade days are gone
And I can stare into the sun
before these blue shade days are gone
And I can stare into the sun
I’ve got a fever baby!
Your love
I’ve got a fever baby!
It’s your love
I said I’m blue, baby
I said I’m blue, baby
I said I’m blue babe, blue babe
I said I’m blue, baby
I’m crying out late now
The sun is gone
I’m crying out late now
The sun is gone
I need you love
I need you love
Do you see me, baby, on the street?
And I’m her king, to her heat
And I love, babe
Lyrics:
They say an end can be a start
Feels like I’ve been buried yet I’m still alive
It’s like a bad day that never ends
I feel the chaos around me
A thing I don’t try to deny
I’d better learn to accept that
There are things in my life that I can’t control
They say love ain’t nothing but a sore
I don’t even know what love is
Too many tears have had to fall
Don’t you know I’m so tired of it all
I have known terror dizzy spells
Finding out the secrets words won’t tell
Whatever it is it can’t be named
There’s a part of my world that’s fading away
You know I don’t want to be clever
To be brilliant or superior
True like ice, true like fire
Now I know that a breeze can blow me away
Now I know there’s much more dignity
In defeat than in the brightest victory
I’m losing my balance on the tight rope
Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please, tell me please…
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know
Hang on to the good days
I can lean on my friends
They help me going through hard times
But I’m feeding the enemy
I’m in league with the foe
Blame me for what’s happening
I can’t try, I can’t try, I can’t try, I can’t try…
No one knows the hard times I went through
If happiness came I missed the call
The stormy days ain’t over
I’ve tried and lost know I think that I pay the cost
I’ve watched all my castles fall
They were made of dust, after all
Someday all this mess will make me laugh
I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait…
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know
It’s like somebody took my place
I ain’t even playing my own game
The rules have changed well I didn’t know
There are things in my life I can’t control
I feel the chaos around me
A thing I don’t try to deny
I’d better learn to accept that
There’s a part of my life that will go away
Dark is the night, cold is the ground
In the circular solitude of my heart
As one who strives a hill to climb
I am sure I’ll come through I don’t know how
They say an end can be a start
Feels like I’ve been buried yet I’m still alive
I’m losing my balance on the tight rope
Tell me please, tell me please, tell me please, tell me please…
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know
If I ever feel better
Remind me to spend some good time with you
You can give me your number
When it’s all over I’ll let you know

Opportunity
And so it goes another lonely day
Your savin time but your miles away
Your fly was drownin in some bitter tea
For seeing lost opportunity
Find your mirror go and look inside
And see the talent you always hide
Don’t go kidd yourself well not today
Satisfaction’s not too far away
Hold on now your exits here
It’s waiting just for you
Don’t pause too long
It’s fading now
It’s ending all too soon you’ll see
Soon you’ll see
Your coffee’s warm but your milk is sour
Life is short but your here to flower
Dream yourself along another day
Never miss opportunity
Don’t be scared of what you cannot see
Your only fear is possibility
Never wonder what the hell went wrong
Your second chance may never come along
Hold on now your exits here
It’s waiting just for you
Don’t pause too long
It’s fading now
It’s ending all too soon you’ll see
Soon you’ll see
Hold on now your exits here
It’s waiting just for you
Don’t pause too long
It’s fading now
It’s ending all too soon you’ll see
Soon you’ll see [x5]
One of my all time favourite live acts is New York band/trio Tortured Soul, comprised of band members Ethan White (Keys, Backing Vocals), John-Christian Urich (Drums, Lead Vocals) and Jason Kriveloff aka JKriv (Bass, Backing Vocals).
Heard them a few years back at Zouk and was absolutely blown away by their talent.
Imagine this, LIVE house music, and most impressively, John Urich does drums and vocals together! It’s like he had more than just the left and right brain, coordination, rhythm and vocals was impeccable. Here’s one of my favourite choons from TS. Sing along with me….
Don’t Hold me Down – Tortured Soul
It’s all right, it’s all right
I’m loving the way you hold me baby
It’s all right, it’s all right
as long as you don’t hold me down

Just a lil choon while I pack for to Kuala Lumpur! Will be blogging about the sponsored trip Thursday and Friday when I’m there.
想跟我吵架 我没那么无聊
不懂得道歉 我没那么聪明
好想要回到我们的原点
你又在哭泣 我给不了安慰
我又在摇头 有那么点后悔
爱情的发展已难以回头却无法往前走
但身不由己出现在胸口
两颗心能塞几个问号
爱让我们流多少眼泪
你的眼神充满美丽带走我的心跳
你的温柔如此靠近带走我的心跳
逆转时光到一开始 能不能给一秒
等着哪一天你也想起
那悬在记忆中的美好
Wang Lee Hom (王力宏)
I posted this song recently, but this one is an amazing version done by my favourite YouTube singer Airto. This clip is one of those songs i’d close my eyes and listen to and it would hit me real hard. Pangs of emotion and the feeling of your chest caving in.
This girl is all kinds of awesomeness!! I’d pay good money to watch her live.
I love this original of hers “Birds Fly Away”
♥ ♥ ♥ ♫ Loves it! ♫ ♥ ♥ ♥
I’ve always had a thing for songs in minor keys. Great track, melody is haunting and melancholic.
Have yet to try some of that green fairy juice prepared the correct way, and not poured down my throat by Javad at a boat party (circa 2003)
One of the most famous bossanova songs ever produced. Listening to this now on a wet rainy Saturday afternoon.
Stan Getz makes me feel like picking up my saxophone lessons again. Has been untouched under my table for at least 7 years.
