Songs’ title,Video, and pictures by: Annika Lee

We are in our usual mood, OK, to simplify matters, I know you are bored of those ‘ lame-not-funny-at-all’ stuffs (that are 80% of our blog). So, tada’ …welcome to Annika’s(and MQ…erhem,exclude Arrica[the admin,"I just write the reviews,the songs were not chosen by me"]).

Be prepared next month for our new chart…the list might be outdated(not the latest songs.If you want the ‘brand new billboard’,there are thousands of sites out there)but it is a comfort to listen to them over and over again,sipping coffee(ahh…).

If you have a suggestion on how to improve the chart(suggest the song?),want to write a music review, or whatever stuff you want to let us know, fill in this form.

OK. I am blabbing too much. I am sure you must be scrolling down without reading, right?*Haiz*

Worth listening: 8/10

Music:7/10

Lyrics:8/10

Hawd:77%+3%(cos ‘ I love her)=80% (A+)

If songs are addictive,then Britney Spears would be the producer.Although I find Shattered Glass more enticing(what to do,Annika made the choice*sad*),Unusual You is not a bad choice either.I am a bit suprised when she sings slow songs like this, but the out come is :she is good in everything.Listen to it everyday and you will never get that “nah,boring!” like James Blunt’s ‘You’re Beautiful’. I like the background singers who manage to soothe my feelings. The music was a bit too slow(did I mention I am not really into slow,sleepy songs), so if the tempo was more upbeat, it would be GREAT! One more thing, I find it hard to sing this song, maybe the arrangement is a bit complicated.

Lyrics

Nothing about you is typical
Nothing about you is predictable
You’ve got me all twisted and confused
(It’s all new)
Up till now, I thought I knew love
Nothing to loose and its damaged cause
Patterns will fall as quick as I do, but now

Bridges are burning
Baby I’m learning, a new way of thinking now
Love I can see, nothing will be, just like it was
Is that because?

[Chorus]
Baby you’re so unusual
Didn’t anyone tell you, you’re supposed to, break my heart?
I expect you do, so why haven’t you?
Maybe you’re not even human cause
Only an angel can be so unusual
Sweet surprise, I could get used to
Unusual You

Been so many things when I was someone else
Boxer in the ring trying to defend myself
In the private eye to see what’s going on
(That’s long gone)
When I’m with you, I can just be myself
You’re always where you said you will be
Shocking cause I never knew love like this could exist

Tables are turning
My heart is soaring, You’ll never let me down
Answer my call, here after all
Never met anyone like you

[Chorus]
Baby you’re so unusual
Didn’t anyone tell you, you’re supposed to, break my heart?
I expect you do, so why haven’t you?
Maybe you’re not even human cause
Only an angel can be so unusual
Sweet surprise, I could get used to
Unusual You

Can’t believe that I almost didn’t try
When you call my name
Now everything has changed

[Chorus]
Baby you’re so unusual
Didn’t anyone tell you, you’re supposed to, break my heart?
I expect you do, so why haven’t you?
Maybe you’re not even human cause
Only an angel can be so unusual
Sweet surprise, I could get used to
Unusual You

Worth Listening: 7/10

Selena Gomez still has this childish voice within her-not that it is a bad thing but because it suits the movie. The music is fantastic-ranging from slow to fast and back to slow. The lyrics is meaningful as well with some fast, unpronounced syllables. Not that motivational, though. This song worth a listen if you want to relax yourself but if you want it to accompany you during gym sessions, nah!

Lyrics

Watch all the flowers
Dance with the wind
Listen to snowflakes
Whisper your name

Feel all the wonder
Lifting your dreams
You can fly

Fly to who you are
Climb upon your star
You believe you’ll find your wings
Fly to your heart

Touch every rainbow
Painting the sky
Look at the magic
Glide through your life

A sprinkle of pixie dust
Circles the night
You can fly

Fly to who you are
Climb upon your star
You believe you’ll find your wings
Fly

Everywhere you go
Your soul will find a home
You’ll be free
To spread your wings
Fly
You can fly
To your heart

Rise to the heights of all you can be
soar on the hope of marvelous things

Fly to who you are
Climb upon your star
You believe you’ll find your wings
Fly

Everywhere you go
Your soul will find a home
You’ll be free
To spread your wings
Fly
You can fly
To your heart

Lyrics: 7/10

Hawd:73%- B

Ahah…at last something faster. I like the sound she(or someone)  make, the sound like(OMG! How to describe the sound???) opening your mouth quickly…err, “Blurk!”. OK, whatever. Then, the way she says, “…Burn This F**ker Down” is really cool(and a little scary)! On the other hand, it isn’t that meaningful either(nothing to ponder about) and may not suit a goody-goody(like me). Room for improvement on rhythm, but it it is still a hit with me.

Lyrics

I dance around this empty house
Tear us down, throw you out
Screaming down the halls
Spinning all around and now we fall

Pictures framing up the past
Your taunting smirk behind the glass
This museum full of ash
Once a tickle, now a rash

This used to be a Funhouse
But now it’s full of evil clowns
It’s time to start the countdown
I’m gonna burn it down, down, down
I’m gonna burn it down

9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, fun

Echoes knocking on locked doors
All the laughter from before
I’d rather live out on the street
Than in this haunted memory

I’ve called the movers, called the maids
We’ll try to exorcise this place
Drag my mattress to the yard
Crumble, tumble house of cards

This used to be a Funhouse
But now it’s full of evil clowns
It’s time to start the countdown
I’m gonna burn it down, down, down

This used to be a Funhouse
But now it’s full of evil clowns
It’s time to start the countdown
I’m gonna burn it down, down, down
I’m gonna burn it down

9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, fun

I’m crawling through the doggy door
My key don’t fit my life no more
I’ll change the drapes, I’ll break the plates
I’ll find a new place, burn this fucker down

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, da, da, da, da

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(9,
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(7, 6)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(5, 4, 3)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
(2, 1)

This used to be a Funhouse
But now it’s full of evil clowns
It’s time to start the countdown
I’m gonna burn it down, down, down

This used to be a Funhouse
But now it’s full of evil clowns
It’s time to start the countdown
I’m gonna burn it down, down, down
I’m gonna burn it down

Lyrics: 8/10

Hawd: 77% =A

Seriously, the background singers who sang 30 seconds before the song ends get into my nerves. OK, before Hannah Montana’s fans start chasing me with axes, I better explain. They sang(sorry, not sang…talk) like a robot, no emotions, really raw. They simply utter the words. Say, Breakeven from The Script has good background singers who clearly ’sing’ the song. Fire them, Miley. Lyrics wise, suits lovers a lot but to singles like me, one shot and this song is a goner-in dust. To lovers, this song goes to you.

Lyrics

Uh oh
There you go again talking cinematic
Yeah you!
You’re charming, got everybody star struck.
I know
How you always seem to go
For the obvious instead of me
But get a ticket and you’ll see

[Chorus:]
If we were a movie
You’d be the right guy
And I’d be the best friend
You’d fall in love with
In the end we’d be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play the happy song

(Yeah)
Yeah, yeah
When you call me
I can hear it in your voice
Oh sure!
Wanna see me
And tell me all about her
La la
I’ll be acting through my tears
I guess you’ll never know
That I should win
An Oscar for this scene I’m in

[Chorus]

Wish I could tell you there’s a twist
Some kind of hero in disguise
And we’re together
It’s for real
Now playing
Wish I could tell you there’s a kiss
Like something more than in my mind
I see it
Could be amazing

[Chorus x3]

I have no idea why Annika chose this song in the top list.Not worth it.Slow,boring,’what is she singing?’are my description.Why?The music is plain (plain boring).No ups and downs. Alicia stretch her vocal too much in this song.Saying this,she sounds pretty lame in this song.Totally not one of her best.If transposition is looked upon,many changes can be made and improved.Not worth $$.

Simply one word to describe: cute.

Seriously, if you do this to your wife, I will try to murder you. Never mind that I am young, I can be brutal you know. I hate those husbands who ‘bully’ their wife. So, watch out, you hubbies.

The Video which was banned and that featured a little hubby violence but funny somehow.

Hurt, huh? What a bad, bad fall. Hope this lady here is ok. But, it doesn’t sound good.

This video is really meaningful, great perhaps and the music does rock my heart a little. Too bad, it is too short…maybe the producer is planning a second, longer version?
