Video: "No U Hang Up"

Sometime ago, I was talking to my friend Ant about the general feeling of being "giddy" about someone... this Shayne Ward song is the epitome of that...sensation. :-)

It's an old-ish song, maybe about a year old, and I just happened to include it in my playlist. My cousin Christo says the whole Shayne Ward album is really good, so I might go check that out as well T(his is getting heavy rotation on my player, by the way.)

I listen to a lot of songs on the commute to work, and this is one of those on the "repeat" list. :-) Playlist songs always mean something in one way or another, and I think this was one of the songs I was listening to one day while I was riding the bus. It reminded me of someone and it had me similing (unintentionally)...which got me thinking that I might have sent the wrong message to the bemuscled hombre who took the seat next to me in the bus. Funnily enough, I noticed that he seemed to sit closer than usual and even waved goodbye to me when he got off the bus. And I don't think I look ed his way once, as I was so wrapped up in my own thoughts. 


(OR...I'm just assuming that he thought I was smiling at him, when in reality, he really was just a friendly guy, right? )


Riiight. :-p

Now, this song might not necessarily be posted up here because of any one person,(although, i t might not anymore) but like all my other songs, it does bring back a good memory. It is a good song, that, "like any good song, takes you back to the time when you first heard it...and it broke your heart".

Good night... :-)

Video: "To Love Somebody"

Nina Simone's currently on my playlist...I downloaded an album one time. "To love somebody" is one of my favorite songs, but her version's a better one than the original done by the BeeGees.... :-) She sounds like Tracy Chapman, but she has a more interesting lifestory. :-)

In her later years, she was diagnosed with a Bipolar Disorder, which she struggled with and reluctantly took meds for. (People who achieve greatness always have had to grapple with an internal conflict at one point or another in their lives, I always say.)

Her concerts were supposed to be "not just performances, but events". I would have loved to have sat in one. :-)
