Grizfolk - Way Back When

Awesome movie, awesome song :)



Lyrics:

There's alway time for living,
Can we just do it again.
One more time like it once was...way back when.
You gave me something to believe in,
We were the best of friends.
Well I remember the good times...way back when.

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Memories will fade if you wanted me to let you go,
I've got you on your way, I feel it for you, don't you know.

We're superheroes and villains,
When we used to pretend.
We go wherever our minds will take us...way back when.

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Memories will fade if you wanted me to let you go,
I've got you on your way, I feel it for you, don't you know.
It's a promise that I made, never be afraid.
I know we'll be okay, this luck we have it cannot go.

Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
And you're on own,
Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
You're not alone,
Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
I know I'll see you again, again.
Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
And if all these things,
Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
Come to an end,
Ahhhh oo, Ahhhh oo
We'll always have...a way back when.

(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Memories will fade if you wanted me to let you go,
I've got you on your way, I'll be there for you, don't you know.
It's a promise that I made, never be afraid.
I know we'll be okay, this luck we have it cannot go.

New Earth - poem by Kreskell

An excellent piece written about the slowing of Earth's rotation. The time when the Earth actually stood still.

New Earth

It was a slow day, they say,
The day the world stopped turning.
Everyone and everything fell sideways
The Earth itself ground to a halt.
It was a slow day, they say,
When the ocean's fell sideways
And the hundred mile waves washes across every Eastern shore.
When the water's receded, the west got battered next.
It was a sad day, they say,
When people in planes could hear the Earth scream
And the world was torn asunder.
When the people in planes became the only ones left.
It is a sad life, they say,
Where the sun beams down indefinitely
And the world they live in is constant summer.
Where the other side is Ice.
The sun shines over the new borders of Africa and Europe
Asia get's some, too.
It's a sad life, up in the Himalayas.
Where they say it used to be snowy
Beautiful and white.
The rocky cliffs aren't good for farming
But the valleys burn and swelter
Fires break out spontaneously.
It's a good thing they can't live down there anymore,
They say
It's a lonely life, they tell me
Where the population of Earth is four thousand.
Set up in small colonies in the mountains
It's the only safe place, they say.
It's a happy life, she tells me,
Tugging her mothers shim-sham skirt.
She doesn't know our Earth,
Says her mother.
She is the first girl born into the new one
It was a slow day, they say,
When the Earth stood still.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning game review

My sorcerer character :)
Not as sophisticated as Skyrim or Dragon Age or The Witcher series, but it has its charms. In terms of storyline/plot, it's so-so at best; but in terms of gameplay, it is pretty much comparable to big titles like Dragon Age (though not at all team-based. I'm mainly referring to the "feel"), Skyrim or the Witcher. :)

The game includes crafting (blacksmithing, alchemy and sagecrafting a.k.a. jewelcrafting), upgradable skills and talents, and other usual stuff. For blacksmithing, although you can craft your own gear through this, most gear you get from  drops are much better... most of the time lah~ Earning money might be a bit hard at first, but then you'll easily earn a lot as you do more quests/ exploring. Most important thing is you must do as many quests as they can offer you.

Despite having all the usual stuff, this game is also unique as it has this 'fate' thingy. When charged (full), you will be able to enter a slow motion mode which is pretty cool, and if you kill plenty of mobs while you're in this mode, you'll get to see their fate being absorbed by you (Looks like something that came straight out from Skyrim) :)

It has this dispelling skill as well - but the mini 'dispelling' game is really very frustrating, so my advice would be after you can detect traps by upgrading your 'detect hidden' skill, stack your points into dispelling. Even lockpicking is way easier than dispelling lol :\

Furthermore, you'll have bonuses like the type of destiny you choose (changeable), the turn of fate that you choose (changeable), the god/goddess blessing that you favour (not changeable), etc etc. :)

Discovering lore will award you bonuses as well (as soon as you finish discovering all of the lorestones in the same zone)

All in all, it's great fun while waiting for Dragon Age 3 and the Witcher 3. Don't expect that you can rush through the content though. The map is pretty huge, but still not as huge as Skyrim :P Plus there are 2 more expansions (new maps!). You can take your time enjoying the scenery and stuff.

P/S: If you decide to become a mage, try the chakrams. They are AWESOME! :P Especially after you've upgraded the sorcery skills for it.

For more screenshots, you can check out my blog's facebook page here.
(It's easier for me to upload these images there rather than here - they are so many!)





You can buy the game and its many DLCs at Amazon by clicking the pictures below:

Lana McKissack - Say Goodbye

Reminded me of Evanescence... lol :P I like this very much as well! I've tried my best but there are still parts of the lyrics that I'm certain that I got them wrong. I'll mark these with asterisks. As usual, any corrections are very much welcome. Enjoy! :)

Lyrics:

All these feelings I can't resist
It's a bit of pleasure and a bit of pain
In this moment, we turn the page
Not going back there
To yesterday

I'm not afraid of letting go
I can be strong all on my own..

I don't want to celebrate
I don't want to play the game
I don't want to make the same mistakes tonight
So say goodbye

*That's how you want to masculate
Letting it go, I'm on again*
I don't want to let it break
I'm not that kind, I draw the line

Over and over, why do we try
It's not enough to save this lie
Say goodbye

Masquerading, played me the fool
Coz no regrets now
Nothing to lose
A bit of heaven, a bit of hell
This chapter's over, I'm running out of time

I'm not afraid of letting go
I can be strong all on my own

I don't want to celebrate
I don't want to play the game
I don't want to make the same mistakes tonight
So say goodbye

*That's how you want to masculate
Letting it go, I'm on again*
I don't want to let it break
I'm not that kind, I draw the line

Over and over, why do we try
It's not enough to save this lie

(Now, and now, and now)
I'm running now
(And now)
I'm running now
(And now, and now, and now, and now, and now)
I'm running now
(And now)
I'm running now
(And now)
I'm running, running, running...

I don't want to celebrate
I don't want to play the game
I don't want to make the same mistakes tonight
So say goodbye

*That's how you want to masculate
Letting it go, I'm on again*
I don't want to let it break
I'm not that kind, so say goodbye

*All you could do is lie
All you could do is lie
All you could do is lie
All you could do is lie......
All you could do is lie
All you could do is lie......*
Say goodbye

Craft the World game review and tips

My little dwarf home :) I'll get some more screenshots of the underground complex that I've hollowed out. :P
Excellent game, despite it being an indie game. :) It's a god-mode sort of game whereby you are the god/creator of these dwarfs and can order them around (to collect resources so that you can build and research stuff). The upgrade tree is very well developed and may take more than few hours to get from the stone age to the iron age.

Crafting items in order to gain experience for new and better upgrades
There are also plenty of maps and even the smaller maps can occupy quite a lot of your time as you fight off mobs, gather resources for upgrades and dig deeper into this sandbox world.

Another fun stuff is that you can create an underground complex of tunnels and rope ladders for your dwarfs. But do stay vigilant! There are monsters, shades/ghosts, zombies and skeletons who will kill your dwarfs (and sometimes steal your goods) if you're not careful! Keep your dwarfs well armed and armoured. Let them rest up from time to time, however, the 'sleeping' option is pretty much bugged up. Despite that, you can still speed level your resource tree right up to the first tier of alchemy. By then, you can create health potions to use for your dwarfs. OR you can just let them die and wait for 4 mins for your dwarf to respawn (but he will have lost all his skill experience points/ new skills).

A trick that I've found out is that you can build a safe house (a small hollowed out tunnel) deep underground with lots of trap doors between the dwarf/s in the safe house and the mobs on the surface. The mobs can enter your tunnels, but they will take some time to reach your safe house and hopefully by then, the sun would have came up and they will be gone. You'll need to have at least 1 dwarf inside the safe house (you can manually control him into the safe house) and you should shut the trap door to keep him in. As long as you have at least 1 surviving dwarf, your game will not end. The rest of the dwarfs will take time to respawn, but at least you don't have to start all over again. :)

Food is another vital resource that you'll have to provide to your dwarfs. You don't really need to force them to eat (by selecting individual dwarfs and selecting the 'eat' option), the dwarfs will eat by their own when their food icons (max is 3) are depleted. What you'll need to do is place food on tables. Some food can be eaten raw (like apples), but some of them may require some cooking (like fishes/meat).

Also, in order to end the game, first, you'll need to find the secret underground room for the ancient portal. Then, you'll need to dig very deep (the earth there will look reddish) to get crystals and enough mithral ores to build the 5 parts of the portal. Once the portal is built, you can just click on it to end the game. You don't even need to tunnel into the portal and order your dwarfs to enter the portal. Just click on it and choose 'end game' :) However, if you're a completionist like me - try getting your technology tree maxed out as well. That'll take time :P

However, a few major downsides of this game are the very, very annoying 'sleeping' bug, and the 'not-using-the-bridge' bug. Furthermore, the game comes with no instructions and for people who are unfamiliar with these sort of games, you'll need to take quite a lot of time to figure out a lot of the functions yourself. Like how to take control of your dwarfs, how/where to get certain ingredients to craft certain items etc.

Overall, I had a fun time playing this, but I believe that the major bugs need to be quickly addressed. It's a pity to see a game with such potential to go to waste because of some bugs. 


Tips to owning this game! (to level up faster :P)

1. The easiest way to get XP is not by digging useless tunnels, but it is by killing snails. Each kill (of anything really) will award you with 100 XP and snails are the easiest to kill (and they don't run away when you start hitting them lol)
2. If you're in a map without soil for farming, you can make your own soil by hollowing out a cavern underground, then build roofs (any kind will do, but it must be roofs) to use as floors. Then the trick is you build another layer of roof on top of the existing layer and watch in amazement as the bottom layer of roof tiles turned to farmable soil! Then, you just need to remove to top layer of roof to get access to your bottom layer of soil. You may sometimes get mithril as well :) (Refer to the guide below)

First step: Place a roof tile. (Note: This is the desert world btw, did you see my little underground farm on the left? :))

Next, add another roof tile on top. The bottom tile will turn into soil (but in this case, I struck the jackpot lol - Mithril!)

Remove the top layer of roof to get access to your bottom layer of soil/ ore :) You can stack as many layers as you want but then, you can only use the top layer for farming, so why waste the roof tiles, right? :)


3. You can also use roofs (more reliable) instead of bridges (bridges are unreliable) to prevent your dwarfs from falling into abandoned pits.
4. Some technologies can be hard to level, but if the new technology gives you a new spell to use, then it'll be much simpler! Using spells in upgradable technologies will award you XP points as well (for that part in the technology tree).
4. To get a fast regeneration of mana, you can exit the game and start it up again! Your mana will be reset to full.
5. If you're in a map that has very few trees (like the desert map), you'll need to quickly level up until you hit the magic forest spell. Then, have fun using the spell until your mana ran out lol :P Don't waste it though, use the spell once, then chop down all the trees before using it again or your new trees will not have enough space to grow.
6. Build home in your network of tunnels instead of above ground. Build a fortified (but small) house protecting your stash.
7. Have multiple doors to block entry to your network of tunnels/ home. If need to, you can block the doors with 2 layers of walls on top of each other in order to deter the enemy (and wait for sun rise), until you break down those walls again.



Link to buy the game on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/248390/

27/6/14 Update: So, I've realised that you need to complete your house (like really complete it so a pop up will appear with the words 'House completed!') in order to get the dwarfs to sleep. However, in order to complete your house, you'll need to fix up all those parts that have a reddish star-like symbol on them. Sometimes, you need to add another piece of wall onto an existing wall or sometimes, you'll need to replace the earth/sand/ice/snow/stone with walls instead. It's really hard to get a house to be labelled as complete, so do expect plenty of deaths at the beginning. Oh and save the skill books for later, so you won't be wasting them on dwarfs that will just die anyway. :)

Screenshots time!


Zombie Tsunami (Android game) review

Another very addictive android game + 1. it doesn't require internet access to play and 2. you don't have 'limited lives' to limit your gameplay... so in other words, you can play till your muscles ache lol. This game had actually occupied me for hours... to the point that I'm very surprised at how fast the time passed by.

On the downside, it doesn't come with instructions so you'll need to figure things out :) But it's not very hard to learn, especially if you are already a well-seasoned gamer. 

Enjoy! ;)

Being a gamer left me...

So, I saw this on my facebook newsfeed and I thought... well, this isn't very accurately written. Let's edit this a little bit, shall we? ;)


1. Perfect aiming using a mouse/a gamepad
2. Great reflexes for the wrists and perhaps arms
3. History knowledge - ofc only the interesting parts, where people kill other people :P
4. English language - mixed in with a lot of jajajajaja ;)
5. Co-op tactics - more like pulling out hair in frustration 
6. strategic planning - it's a guaranteed wipe, no matter how good your planning is for killing a boss, if your single surviving healer DC-ed or is lagging to the point of doing nothing (and other worse case scenarios) :P
7. Never surrender mentality - when overwhelmed by the opposing faction, avoid respawning in order to avoid getting ganked over and over at the ressing point (heh) or best case, Alt+F4 to quit the BG... unless you can stealth ofc 
8. And hours and hours of fun + cursing at the computer/teammates over teamspeak ;)

Delta Rae - What Matters Most

Amazing soundtrack from the animated movie Escape from Planet Earth! :)


Lyrics:

Different as the night and day
Two shades of the sky
There are times it's just too hard to say
Everything we feel and why

You can share with me your crazy dreams
I've come to understand
It's the honesty
Of love that keeps us close
And that's what matters most

Even when we're worlds away
It doesn't seem so far
A connection that will never break
It's been right there from the start

Everything I've chased around this world
Isn't what it's all about
It's the heart behind the love that keeps us close
And that's what matters most

And I can't imagine who I'd be without you
There's no way you see something in me
And believe I could do anything
Everything

You can share with me your crazy dreams
I've come to understand
It's the honesty
Of love that keeps us close
And that's what matters most

That's what matters most

Meghan Tonjes - Waiting for You

One of my favs from the show :) Lyrics are transcribed by yours truly ;) I'm only not sure of two parts in the lyrics (marked with asterisks), but anyway, any corrections that you have for me, do please post them in the comments below.

Enjoy! :)



Wandering, wandering by
Wandering, wandering by

What can I say?
I'm not gonna to stay forever
But I want to
I want to, I want to

Time after time
Say that it's now or never
Coz I want you
I want you, I want you

Why can't you just see that?
All you ever need is
Waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Take a chance with me and
Jump in with both feet, I'm
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

We've been chasing each other
Running in circles
And wandering, wandering by
Wandering, wandering by

Now that I know
You've been saying
Please don't go, will you?
Take your time with me
It'll be fine you'll see
*I've been thinking of ways of getting to like you*

Yeah, I've been making all the moves for you
Step back, I know you want *something, somebody
It's true*
But if you want this
You've gotta fight for it
You've gotta fight for it

Why can't you just see that?
All you ever need is
Waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Take a chance with me and
Jump in with both feet, I'm
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

Baby, we've been chasing each other
Running in circles
And wandering, wandering by
We're standing where we are
And I'm not running anymore...

Why can't you just see that?
All you ever need is
Waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Take a chance with me and
Jump in with both feet, I'm
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

Baby, we've been chasing each other
Running in circles
And wandering, wandering by
Wandering, wandering by

Baby, we've been chasing each other
Running in circles
And wandering, wandering by
Wandering, wandering by

How to add new powerpoint slide designs?

This is a step-by-step guide for newbs (like me! heh :P). Enjoy!

--This guide is tailored for Win7 users--

P/S: I'll add in screenshots when I have the time ;)

1. First, go to this website or any other reliable sites that provide free slide design downloads.

I recommend fppt because it is reliable (no viruses or excessive ads) and it's free :)
2. Download the zip file, then extract only the powerpoint file by dragging it out from the zip file onto your desktop.



3. Double click to open the pptx file and then go to the 'Design' tab (It is on the same row as your File tab)

This screenshot should show you steps 3 to 7 :) Click on pic to enlarge.
4. There should be a box in the middle whereby it shows the saved slide designs that you already have. Okay, now click the little downward arrow with a line at the pointy part on the side of the box to expand that box.

5. There are 3 options at the bottom of the expanded box. Choose the 'save current theme' option.

6. Save it with whatever name you want.

7. Viola! You have successfully saved that slide design for future use. (P/S: You may proceed by deleting the extracted pptx file as well as the zip file)



The saved theme will appear under the subtitle: Custom themes

The Young and the Restless - choral speaking script

I found my old choral speaking script when I was searching for something else and I was overwhelmed with fond memories of the time when I was in the school's choral speaking team. I loved every minute of my time on the team :)

The author for this script is a plump Malay lady with a great smile and is as bubbly as how the script was written :) There was another script, but then I lost that one... it is rather sad, now that I think of it. I only can recall the funny part where we had to do a Mexican wave while calling out 'Tiiiiimmmmmbbbbbbeeeerrrr!'. Maybe it's something related to saving the environment. Hmm....

Anyway, since we've already used this script for our competition, so I thought, 'why not let other people enjoy the brilliance behind the script?' :) Enjoy!

P/S: Although I like the previous (and lost) script better, I only found this... so, yeah, that's it I guess :)

Updates!

I'm just back from a few-days-long, nausea-inducing, road-forever-winding journey :D and I'm glad to say that I've several stuff lined up. Mainly to continue transcribing the lyrics for the rest of the Writing Room songs and some long-awaited *drum rolls please!* game reviews!

Uh but for the Aarklash Legacy walkthrough, I've tried really hard but I still cannot solve that stupid puzzle. I doubt I will ever complete it lol.... sigh.

Anyway, that's all for today. I'm still dizzy and tired from the trip lol. Until tomorrow!

Chris Thompson - Free

Sleep is for the weak lol xD I'm so dead tomorrow. Anyway, another cool song from Writing Room :)


Lyrics:
I wake up you're gone again
The whispers in my head begin
Where are you where have you been
I can't stand the lies

2 weeks in we had no doubts
Took awhile to figure out
Passion's all we had around
Your kisses made me blind

All was not for nothing
But it was never good enough
Now I've run out of love to give

I lose a little piece of me
Every time I watch you leave
and I refuse to fight for something you can't even see
I lose a little piece of me
Torn apart at the seams
And I don't need your love no more
You've got no hold on me
Free from your gravity

Free
(from your gravity)
Free
(from your gravity)
Free
I'm finally free
I'm finally free

Pull me back but I won't give
Might miss you a little bit
Here's a story with a twist
You're blowing up my phone

On my doorstep looking sad
In my ear please take me back
It's too late just save your breathe
This is not your home

All was not for nothing
But it was never good enough
Now I've run out of love to give

I lose a little piece of me
Every time I watch you leave
and I refuse to fight for something you can't even see
I lose a little piece of me
Torn apart at the seams
And I don't need your love no more
You've got no hold on me
Free from your gravity

Free
(from your gravity)
Free
(from your gravity)
Free
I'm finally free
I'm finally free

You ya took what you wanted
Left me empty handed
I loved you but now I've moving on
I-I'm glad that I met ya
Cos now I can do better on my own

I lose a little piece of me
Every time I watch you leave
and I refuse to fight for something you can't even see

I lose a little piece of me
Every time I watch you leave
and I refuse to fight for something you can't even see
I lose a little piece of me
Torn apart at the seams
And I don't need your love no more
You've got no hold on me
Free from your gravity

Free
(from your gravity)
Free
(from your gravity)
Free
I'm finally free
I'm finally free

Jon D of Simply Spoons - Waiting

This is actually very awesome. I like their concept of putting numbers or words that sound like numbers into the lyrics. Very creative! :)


Lyrics:
One perfect girl yeah we got too much in common
I'm always wheel number three but you're the one when I'm driving I'm stopping for
But you can't see, and you ask me
Where is my someone?

He's got you right where he wants you and he's asking you questions,
like what you weigh for today and then he hurts you by guessing
Then suddenly
you come to me
Wish you could see that you're my someone

And I'm waiting for you
I keep waiting for you
It's worth the wait when love is true
So I'm waiting for you

Won over you in at least two of my daydreams
but then I wake and it's three P.M. and nothing is changing to make it Four
Little letters
Love is better if you count me in.

So I'm waiting for you
I keep waiting for you
It's worth the wait when love is true
So I'm waiting for you

You could be happy
You could have everything you want
We, we could be laughing
And fall asleep with the TV on

When everything is falling down I'm the first thing on your mind
Just close your eyes and count to four and fall in love for the first time

So I'm waiting for you
I keep waiting for you
Always waiting for you
And I'm waiting

So I'm waiting for you
I keep waiting for you
Always waiting for you
And I'm waiting

She got a kiss like Hershey
Cool like water and I'm so thirsty

She got a laugh, a laugh so perfect
Tying me up, making me nervous

But you got me on the wait like every single day I don't know what to say but
You're worth it.

So I'm waiting for you
I keep waiting for you
It's worth the wait when love is true
So I'm waiting for you

Alex G - Inside Out

Video doesn't really make sense lol :P but anyway, I love the song :)


Lyrics:
Do you remember that night
your favorite record was on
you held my hand for a while
and then you looked in my eyes
just like an Ed Sheeran song
you gave me love and smile
but that was then and this is now and it feels like were on the edge
and everyday it's getting harder to pretend
this back and forth and yes and no has gotta end
it's gotta end

ohhhh
you're turning me all inside out and upside down
ohhhh
even if there's no way out I can't stop now
this is not the way that it's meant to be
I can't let you go and it's killing me
ohhhh
you're turning me all inside out inside out

last night we counted the stars
we traded stories of scars
I feel asleep in your arms
and I woke up to a kiss
wish it was always like this
instead of all these what ifs

and I'm not okay
I feel like your mind changes almost everyday
I hang on every moment everything you say
so tell me if I'm not enough for you to stay
so can you stay

ohhhh
you're turning me all inside out and upside down
ohhhh
even if there's no way out I can't stop now
this is not the way that it's meant to be
I can't let you go and it's killing me
ohhhh
you're turning me all inside out inside out

and I'm not okay
I feel like your mind changes almost everyday
I hang on every moment everything you say
so tell me if I'm not enough for you to stay
so can you stay

BioShock Infinite - story line explanations

I'm very surprised that I cannot find a single blogspot of mine that talked about one of the best written story line for a game. Seriously... maybe coz I'm lazy lol. Anyway, just so you know, this webpage that I've found has talked in-depth about the story for this game. It's very perplexing lol, but then you'll realise that stuff that may not make sense then sounds about reasonable now (after you've read the stuff in the link above).

Very interesting, right? I'd rank the story line of this game to be on par with Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but this doesn't include indie games, such as Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, which has a pretty awesome story line as well, into my consideration (for the sake of making stuff easier lol).

Okay, I seriously need to get some sleep. There are more tuition today and a very long journey tomorrow (to Kelantan). So, ciao!

Sean Patrick Malone - First Flight

Taken from the description from his video. Enjoy! :)


Lyrics:
Mama, I need your help
I'm growing up and out of myself
When I was five, I came to you
You made it better, but if I only knew
That one day I'd be on my own
Forced to face the world alone
I'd never spread my wings to fly
I'd hide inside your arms and cry

Don't worry cuz you got me this far
You must have raised me right from the start

I know it's time to leave the nest
Let me take one last breath
Here on my own it's my first flight
I'll be careful with this life

Mother, now that I'm a man
Will you stand with me no matter who I am?
When I was lost you came and found
Me in wonder of the universe around
And now this is what I do
But only this time I do it without you
So will your promise when I call
That you will catch me if I fall?

Don't worry cuz you got me this far
You must have raised me right from the start

I know it's time to leave the nest
Let me take one last breath
Here on my own it's my first flight
I'll be careful with this life

Today is my day, my day to fly I find

Side Effects webseries

It's awesome. Seriously, if you're a stickler for series like Glee (though I don't really watch Glee now... it seems like the story's 'over-dragged on', if you get what I mean ;) ) 

Anyway, if you have no idea what I am talking about, go check out their complete first season here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBQgA3Kndk7dXtuuE1z16-07wmLAilEGk (Yes, it's a playlist of 5 episodes with their cover/original songs in music videos :P). 

The most outstanding song from their season 1 is definitely Bad Day (Music video and lyrics here). I had that on repeat for a whole week lol. :P

The most exciting thing is that their second season is already here!!! (3rd episode now) And although we fans have not so much as a glimpse of their original song (not even a teaser! Garh!) for this season, so far, I have plenty of awesome covers to satisfy our hunger :D


Okay, I'm out! Cya! :)

Sean Patrick Malone - I Can Feel Too

Lyrics are taken directly from the description from his Youtube video with one minor edit. Enjoy! :)


Lyrics:
So sick of playing coy, when I'm just a happy boy to you
You think I'm too go for bad as if I cannot feel sadness
Nesting all of my griefs to bed, I've taught myself to clear

my head of pain
Painting covers on my book will never show where you don't

look

Look at all the vast pretension
Rightly earned by misapprehension
You could kill a man softly
But I won't go so let me get this off me

I can feel too
I can feel too
I can break like the waves on a beach do
And I can heal through
Every scrape, every cut, every bruise
But I-I can feel too

I'll jump ship for one more minute of hearing that your

heart's not in it because
Because I've got a smile don't mean I've never gone the mile

for you
You got a fast car, but I'm not letting you take me far away
Waiting for you to understand, boy's don't cry, but I'm a

man

Mantle for your emotive condescension
With your tongue on your sleeve gives me cause to mention
You could kill a man softly
But I won't go so let me get this off me

I can feel too
I can feel too
I can break like the waves on a beach do
And I can heal through
Every scrape, every cut, every bruise
But I-I can feel too

Listen to your heartbeat carefully
Duh-duh duh-duh baby can't you see
For every beat that you claim your own
I've got three in between that I'm dying to show
But I'm stuck here, in your second dimension
I'm throwing the towel and even the wrench in
You could kill a man softly
But I won't go so let me get this off me

I can feel too
I can feel too
I can break like the waves on a beach do
And I can heal through
Every scrape, every cut, every bruise
But I-I can feel too

Sean Patrick Malone - Angel of Temptation

I'm not much of a blues fan... this song sounds like 'blues' right? Anyway, I found out that I like this and I tried getting lyrics for it but I can't find any. So yeah, here's my first attempt at trying to hear what he is singing :P and if I can't, I just made up words that sounds like what he sang or whatever word that seems logical to me lol :P

Any corrections are very much welcome! Enjoy! :)


Lyrics:
Well, she's a troubled soul
I could see from a distance
She could rock and roll
How could I resist it?
But du du du dah, du du dah, du dah~
She's the smoothest operator this world has ever kissed

The way she stood awhile, she gave me no reason
With a pretty smile, she got me hooked without speaking
But du du du dah, du du dah, du dah~
So I left without a word, with my head in my hands

You can make a man go crazy, for a minute of your time
You've got a single look wasted on the strangers in life
Baby, you're so down low private, I couldn't find
The secrets that you're keeping make you harder to find
Ooo woah, ooo woah, ooo woahhh
Ooo woah, ooo woah, ooo woahhh

Well, out from nowhere, she came to the door
She called my name and my jaw dropped to the floor
Woah, woah, woahhh
But you know, you're kinda what I was looking for

Well, we stood awhile, strutting down the alley
She whispers something about a rain in the valley
You know...Woah, woah, woahhh
I cannot tell you about the grand finale

Makes a man go crazy, for a minute of your time
You've got a single look wasted on the strangers in life
Baby, you're so down low private, I couldn't find
The secrets that you're keeping make you harder to find

Well, take on the hour
And just run on me down
Coz all I want to be are from you and your soul
Is your, your heart is darkness surround
Just kiss me like you're hurrying in midnight
Then, walk away and never return
Coz I can't wish on stars if I want to write
I don't think I ever will learn
Stay....ay away from trouble..
Woahhh, woah, oh!

Yeah~
