So after the dissapointing announcement of the finalist in x factor (Jade Richards being eliminated), I started looking for another contestant to support. It is no fun watching x factor without having a favourite, or someone you’d support from beginning till th end eh??
So I am supporting a young talented star, Janet Devlin after her stunning performance of Your Song. Amazing version, check it out.

I am currently hooked on to Adele’s Forever 21 album. If you are looking for a good CD, this is a must have album! Her previous album 19, isn’t as good as this, in fact, that CD was pretty boring, and puts me to sleep every time I listened to it.
Every single track on Forever 21 is nice, the lyric is meaningful too. If you havn’t heard her music before, you can download video from youtube before buying her album. Besides someone like you, my next favourite is rolling in the deep! Good song, check it out.

I am loving Adele’s Forever 21 CD! Its so good!!
I have heard her songs gazillion times on the radio when I was home, but I wasn’t entirely sure it was her, knowing me, I am not quite up to date with music at the moment.
But after listening to the CD at work the other day, boy I was hooked on to it! I want to get one too!!
If you don’t know by now, let me tell you. Now 78 is finally released!! It was out in the market for purchasing on the 11th of April 2011. Many people have a collection of Now music albums because it is the only cool album with various most current artist with amazing tracks you can find.
Now 78 consists of 2 CDs as with most music albums, with 21 tracks on each CD. Guess what is their 1st track on the CD??? Yes you bet – Grenade by Bruno Mars!! That song has been on top of the billboard charts for awhile, and who doesn’t know Bruno Mars right? Besides him, there are other hit songs – Like a G6 by Far East Movement that you’d probably be farmiliar with if you visit the clubs frequently.
Other artists which are included in the album include Taoi Cruz, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Pink, Avril Lavigne etc etc. Not to forget, one of Britain’s favourite Idol Matt Cardle’s single When We Collide is also one of the bonuses you can get in the CD!
Recently I bought 2 music albums namely Bruno Mars’ and Taylor Swift’ latest albums for a friend’s birthday, but I was actually searching for something like Now 78, in fact, I did ask the sales person if they had an album with various current artists in them, but he said no. I guess it wasn’t released yet when I was looking for it.
So if you are looking for the ideal music album as a gift, you know what to look for now. It only costs £11.99, for a good 42 tracks.
I just want to share a song that I am addicted to so much at the moment. Everyone knows that Bruno Mars is so hot and famous now, especially with his songs ‘ Just the way you are’ and ‘Billionair’. But after listening to Grenade sang by the 3 girls in American Idol 2011, I fell in love with the song. Check out Bruno Mars studio version, it is the best version ever. I would so totally go for his concert!!! How about you?
Also check out the american idol ladies version. They did pretty well too, especially Pia Toscano!! My current favourite.
I don’t mind it
I don’t mind at all
It’s like you’re the swing set
And I’m the kid that falls
It’s like the way we fight
The times I’ve cried
We come to blows
And every night
The passion’s there
So it’s got to be right
Right?
No I don’t believe you
When you say don’t come around here no more
I won’t remind you
You said we wouldn’t be apart
No I don’t believe you
When you say you don’t need me anymore
So don’t pretend to
Not love me at all
I don’t mind it
I still don’t mind at all
It’s like one of those bad dreams
When you can’t wake up
It looks like you’ve given up
You’ve had enough
But I want more
No I won’t stop
Because I just know
You’ll come around
Right?
No I don’t believe you
When you say don’t come around here no more
I won’t remind you
You said we wouldn’t be apart
No I don’t believe you
When you say you don’t need me anymore
So don’t pretend to
Not love me at all
Just don’t stand there and watch me fall
Because I, because I still don’t mind at all
It’s like the way we fight
The times I’ve cried
We come to blows
And every night
The passion’s there
So it’s got to be right,
Right?
No I don’t believe you
When you say don’t come around here no more
I won’t remind you
You said we wouldn’t be apart
No I don’t believe you
When you say you don’t need me anymore
So don’t pretend to
Not love me at all
Iv just listened to ’forever and almost always’ for the first time, when I was watching grey’s anatomy video clips, and I totally fell in love with the song, and the lyrics.
Kate Elizabeth Voegele was born on the 8th of December 1986, she is an American singer-songwriter, musician, and actress from the Cleveland, Ohio. It was by virtue of her talent, vivacious personality and sheer determination that Voegele scored the tie-in of a lifetime: playing the spunky Mia on popular teen drama One Tree Hill, but performing her own music.
Her 1st album Don’t Look Away, sold close to a quarter million copies, went up to No. 4 on the iTunes chart. She has recently released her 2nd album in May 2009 called A Fine Mess which is of pop-rock origin, produced by Mike Elizondo (Maroon 5).
So the story goes on down a less traveled road.
It’s a variation on the one I was old,
And although it’s not the same, It’s awful close
In an ordinary fairy tale land,
There’s a promise of a perfect happy end.
And I imagine having just short of that,
Is better than nothing
So you’ll be my Forever and Almost Always,
And I’ll be fine, just love me when you can
And I’ll wait patiently, I’ll wake up everyday
Just hoping that, you still care
In the corner of my mind, I know too well,
Oh that surely even I, deserve the best
But instead of leaving, I just put the issue to bed,
And out of my head,
Oh and just when I believe, you’ve changed for good.
Well you go and prove me wrong just like I knew you would
When I’ve run out of second chances, you give me that look,
And you’re off the hook,
Because you’re my Forever and Almost Always,
And I’ll be fine, just love me when you can
And I’ll wait patiently, I’ll wake up everyday
Just hoping that, you still care
What am I still doing here?
It’s all becoming so clear.
You’ll be my Forever and Almost Always,
It ain’t right to just love me when you can
I won’t wait patiently, or wake up everyday
Just hoping that you’ll still care
Forever and Almost Always,
No it ain’t right to just love me when you can, baby
Ain’t gonna wait patiently, I won’t wake up everyday just hoping that you still care.
When I was browsing youtube, I found another version of the same song sang by another youtube-ian. Wao.. she is soo good! Check her out people *impressed*, wished I could sing like her.
Forever and Almost Always

If it’s a broken part, replace it
If it’s a broken arm then brace it
If it’s a broken heart then face it
And hold your own
Know your name
And go your own way
In the start of the song, someone over the phone tells a story about how they’ve lost everything in an apartment fire, and is completely lost. Jason, in the song is trying to help them get through this difficult time of their life, and at the end of the song, another phone call tells that they have managed to pull through and feels grateful for Jason’s help. The meaning of the song is along the same lines of detachment – from any sort of relationship problems, losing someone, or just about any life crisis one is dealing with.
I love the lyrics of the song, I think it is beautifully written, the meaning of the song definitely applies to most us at some point of our lives. I think this is a great song for those who are trying to move on from a broken relationship, This is my favourite part – ‘hold your own, know your name’ – is a reminder for one to appreciate and love yourself, put yourself first before others, don’t try to be someone you’re not for someone else. So basically, don’t let a relationship become everything/main thing in your life, because when it is over, you are left with nothing, but yourself.
