Please Don't Go


"Baby please don't go. If I wake up tomorrow will you still be here? I don't know if you feel the way I do. If you leave I'll go find you. Baby please don't go." -Mike Posner

So Mike Posner's doing a pretty good job in the music business. His first single "Cooler Than Me" was a hit and now "Please Don't Go" is climbing up the charts. It's such an amazing song about a man's worry over a girl he loves. He's afraid that he'll close his eyes and go to sleep, then wake up the next morning to find her gone. It's something never guaranteed--waking up next to the one you love--especially if you aren't sure they feel the same way about you. In the bridge he keeps repeating, "I stay running from tomorrow." Its like the closer he gets to the next morning the sooner he finds out whether or not she stayed. So keep running Mike. Make the night last forever.

Heaven Forbid


"Heaven forbid you end up alone, and don't know why. Hold on tight and wait for tomorrow you'll be alright." -The Fray

The Fray never ceases to write those really somber and somewhat uplifting song lyrics. When I first heard this song, I fell in love with it instantly. There are so many people in this world who want to meet someone, settle down, and start a family. Unfortuantely, that can't even begin to happen if you're alone. I believe there is a soulmate for everyone somewhere out there, and you've just got to wait for them to find you. You're supposed to fall in love, not jump in.

Last Kiss


"I do recall now the smell of the rain, fresh on the pavement, I ran off the plane that July 9th, the beat of your heart. It jumps through your shirt, I can still feel your arms. Now I'll go, sit on the floor wearing your clothes. All that I know is I don't know how to be something you miss. Never thought we'd have a last kiss. Never imagined we'd end like this." -Taylor Swift

This song is so heart-warming. Yet another great lyric from Taylor Swift from her new album "Speak Now". I just love the way she protrays losing someone you really care about. It's carzy how one minute you're running into their arms once you get off the plane, holding them close and kissing them passionately. And the next minute they're gone. It's so sad and vivid at the same time. Then you don't even know how the onther person feels about all this. You're not even sure they'll miss you. :(

Never Gonna Leave This Bed


So, it's been about two months since I've blogged. Sorry guys! I've been so busy with school and work and SAT prep! So many great albums have come out since September. Maroon 5's "Hands All Over" is one of them.

"You hurt me. Why do I deserve this? You make me so nervous. Calm me down, calm me down. Wake you up in the middle of the night to say I will never walk away again, I'm never gonna leave this bed." -Maroon 5

This song is so amazing. When I first heard it, I realized how many men loved one night stands. Adam, or whoever from the group wrote this song, wants his girl to know that he wouldn't do that to her. Imagine waking someone up at like one in the morning to tell them you're not leaving. I would be like,"You woke me up to tell me that! Shoot! Go back to sleep man!" But in any case, I give Maroon 5 their props. They're real men.
