[Singles] Skillet - Awake

Skillet's new Album; Awake, is due for release sometime in August 2009. How exciting is that!

So far, 2 singles are out; Hero and Monster.

Skillet - Hero


Skillet - Monster

Been listening to both for the past day or two and I love them! Just listening to these 2 songs makes me feel that their new album is going to be awesomer than the first, so can't wait till it's released!!

Way awesome!!

[Music] Staind - Everything Changes

I don't know...but the more I listen to his older albums the more amazing songs that I find.

This is the Acoustic, Live version from the Hiro Ballroom of their 2006 album; The Singles 1996-2006. I've listened to this song a lot lately and it still seems I can't get enough of it.

The lyrics are a mix of heart felt, romantic and sad words. Yet again, this is Staind we're talking about here, it's kind of his thing lol.

Absolutely beautiful!

If you just walked away
What could I really say?
would it matter anyway?
would it change how you feel?

I am the mess you chose
the closet you can not close
The devil in you I suppose
'cuz the wounds never heal

(Chorus)
But everything changes
if I could turn back the years
If you could learn to forgive me
then I could learn to feel

Sometimes the things I say
In moments of disarray
Succumbing to the games we play
To make sure that it's real

(Chorus)

When it's just me and you
Who knows what we could do
If we can just make it through
through this part of the day

(Chorus)

Then we could
Stay here together
And we could
Conquer the world
If we could
Say that forever
It's more than just a word

If you just walked away
What could I really say?
It wouldn't matter anyway.
It wouldn't change how you feel

[Music] MJ vs. AAF - Smooth Criminal

I honestly love this song, never seems to get old. I only listen to AAF's (Alien Ant Farm) cover because it's more 'now' and more rocky. Although I gotta say, I'm having trouble deciding which one is nicer MJ's (Micheal Jackson) or AAF's version. Phat reminded me of this song when he linked me a funny video, that I'll post lastly, which had the MJ's version of the song. It made me go and listen to the full version and I'm kind of shifting to MJ's one because I'm finding it tune-ier/funkier. What I mean is, when he starts to sing the chorus there's the part where he says "he left the signs in the window (that he struck you-a crescendo Annie)"...the last few words are sung with a tune compared to AAF. I like it more that way because it's not plain. I don't know...I guess each one is different and cool in it's own way that we shouldn't compare. lol.

As one of the commenters on the MJ video said "It can be a bit repetitive, but it's catchy as hell. Once you've heard this song, you're never gonna get it out of your head. Such a kick-ass song." I totally agree with them. I've been listening to this song (the AAF version) since 2002 when I first heard about it. It never got bored of it.

Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal (cover)

The kid in the yellow shirt dancing >.< is awesome!!

Micheal Jackson - Smooth Criminal (original)

Never liked any of his work really, actually never listened to anything from him
but I give him credit for this song. Was shocked when I found out it was originally his =\

Smooth Khaliji =P

This is so funny! lol. They are so friggin' in sync and the person the edited the
video did a great job on making the music go with the dancing.

So which one do you like?

[Music] Linkin Park - New Divide

Oh yeah! Here it is. After a few listens, it totally grew on me. At first I just loved the music, but now I love the whole song. It's definitely a good one and totally suiting the second Transformers Movie. The music video for New Divide was filmed on the set of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (laaaaah *holy music*) movie and directed by Joe Hahn (who's a band member in LP).

Awesome-ness! Chester's singing in the first verse totally reminded me of the voice of the main singer in 'The Rasmus' (another good band). Still, fantastic song!

Enjoy!
