Julian Casablancas Song Of The Day

So Julian Casablancas, lead singer for the strokes, is coming out with a solo album.
YAY!
I cannot say how excited I am about this news. The strokes have not brought out an album in a few years and this is as close as I am going to get to seeing him in a show any time soon.
Yes, yes, I do have a small little crush on Mr. Casablancas himself, but I am mostly in love with his voice.
So enjoy this first single off his first solo album.

Song Of The Day..



I hope they do.....

Lyrics

Ooh-oo child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll get brighter
Ooh-oo child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll be brighter

Some day, yeah
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day, yeah
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter

Ooh-oo child, things are gonna be easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll be brighter
Ooh-oo child, things are gonna be easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll be brighter

Some day, yeah
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day, yeah
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter

Some day, some day, some day
We'll get it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day, some day, some day
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter

Ooh-oo child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll be brighter
Ooh-oo child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh-oo child, things'll be brighter

Right now
You just wait and see how things are gonna be
Right now...

Green Day Song of the Day...

Okay, okay i know. Its very different from what I've been posting, but, i do love green day. The other day i was revisiting 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours and i came upon this song that has amazing lyrics.
It speaks about a breakup, i'm guessing, and how he cant keep his mind off this girl..

Billie truly has a great mind for lyrics and it feels great being able to appreciate it.

So Enjoy!



Paper Lantern Lyrics
Now I rest my head from
Such an endless dreary time
A time of hopes and happiness
That had you on my mind
Those days are gone and now it seems
As if I'll get some rest
But now and then I'll see you again
And it puts my heart to the test

So when are all my troubles going to end?
I'm understanding now that
We are only friends
To this day I'm asking why
I still think about you

As the days go on I wonder
(Will this ever end?)
I find it hard to keep control
When you're with your boyrfriend
I do not mind if all I am is
Just a friend to you
But all I want to know right now
Is if you think about me too... ?

So when are all my troubles going to end?
I'm understanding now that
We are only friends
To this day I'm asking why
I still think about you

So when are all my troubles going to end?
I'm understanding now that
We are only friends
To this day I'm asking why
I still think about you

Song of The Day



So I am fortunate enough to be able to go see U2 October 25th! I am psyched and excited to see one of the bands that describe my childhood. I remember my dad putting on the vhs of U2 videos in the weekend mornings and we would sing along and be fascinated with what the band "U2" was.

This song seriously makes me want to skip down streets and live a happy joyful life! It is one of my favorite U2 songs and I recently re-discovered it once Carlos (my friend from school) gave me a CD of their concert. I immediately put heard this song and it pulled straight on my heart strings.

Enjoy this! I hope you love it as much as I love it.

Will post lyrics because they are amazingly powerful.
I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel, sunlight on my face
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Were still building
Then burning down love, burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you...
(its all I can do)

The cities a flood
And our love turns to rust
Were beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled into dust
Ill show you a place
High on ta desert plain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
(its all I can do)

Scarlett Johansson & Pete Yorn

I am currently obsessed with Scarlett Johansson and Pete Yorn.
They make music fun that resembles that of the 60's, their joyful beats and awesome lyrics hits my happy strings.

Here is another one of my favorite songs from them....
