New Fav Music Vid: "Soulmate" Natasha Bedingfield





Incompatible, it don’t matter though
‘cos someone’s bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do
you’re not easy to find

Is it possible Mr. Loveable
is already in my life?
right in front of me
or maybe you’re in disguise

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I’m on my own
if there’s a soulmate for everyone

Here we are again, circles never end
how do I find the perfect fit
there’s enough for everyone
but I’m still waiting in line

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I’m on my own
if there’s a soulmate for everyone
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

Most relationships seem so transitory
They’re all good but not the permanent one

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I’m on my own
if there’s a soulmate for everyone

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I’m on my own
if there’s a soulmate for everyone

If there’s a soulmate for everyone

i know the song is old, but i loved it the first time i heard it a couple of years ago.  it wasn't until this Valentine's day that i actually saw the video for it... and it was very fitting...

New Fav Album: "It's Not Me, It's You"



This week, Lily Allen dropped her sophomore effort with it’s Not Me, It’s You. Maturing greatly from her debut Alright, Still where she took us through the streets of London, brawls outside of the club and the wicked mindset of a scorned ex-girlfriend--Lily is now taking a totally different road.

The album starts off strong with “Everyone’s At It”, talking about the influence of drugs and how it’s so easy these days just to get a prescription for a pill. “The Fear”, “22”, “F**k You” and “Him” also touch on issues dealing with society, politics and religion over mid-tempo melodic beats and hypnotizing harmonies.

Of course the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to relationships are laced throughout the album with tracks like “I Could Say”, “Back To the Start” and “Never Gonna Happen”. Shining songs in this category are “Not Fair” about the perfect boyfriend who just can’t satisfy in bed, and “Who’d Have Known”, exploring the fine line between being friends and a blooming romantic relationship.

The closing song “He Wasn’t There” ends on a paternal note where she brings to light the hardships she faced with the lack of her dad’s (Keith Allen, a British actor) presence in her life, yet she’s delightfully sings “I’m so pleased/ I didn’t give up on him”.

Well, I’m happy with all that Lily has faced during her miscarriage, broken relationships alcohol/drug incidents that she hasn’t given up her music and the fans haven’t given up on her.

M.I.A. is now a M.O.M. yay



so M.I.A. is supposed to perform at the upcoming Oscars, but according to E! News

M.I.A.'s performance [...] (she's a nominee for her collaboration on "O, Saya") [Slumdog Millionaire] remains up in the air. It was reported earlier today that the rapper gave birth sometime this week after performing at the Grammys this past Sunday on her actual due date.
[...]"she's eager to perform…We've said things like, 'We're willing to have her enter on a large bed. We'll make it as easy for her as we can." (FYI: Sources also tell me the baby is definitely here; M.I.A.'s rep did not comment.)

guess we'll just have to see if she shows up, and if so what craziness she'll be wearing.  knowing her--she'll be there *fingers crossed*
