Just Press Play!

Here is the collection for last week, and because I missed the deadline, I added some extra categories, as an apology! ;)

Happy listening! :D

The Motivational Song:
Firework- Katy Perry

The video and lyrics is just awesome (I specially liked the fireworks bursting out of them! :) )and the song is very sing-along-able! :D

"Do you know that there is till a chance for you,
Cuz there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night, like the fourth of July!"

"If you only knew what the future holds,
After a hurricane, comes a rainbow
Maybe the reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open the one that leads you to the perfect road!"

The Sad Song:
When You are gone- Avril lavigne

This is an all-time favourite. Eventhough I've heard it a million times, when I sing it or hear it, still brings me close to tears. The video is very touching, specially the part where the soldier leaves his pregnant wife to go fight in a war and the old lady dying, leaving her husband all alone!

"When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you are gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you
When you are gone, the face I came to know is missing too"

The Happy Song:
Love Story- Taylor Swift

This has been a favourite ever since I heard it-  the reason I started listening to Taylor Swift, literally!
When I sing the chorus, I can't help but smile. That warm, fuzzy feeling I get, it's awesome! The best part is:

"I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading

When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said,
Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you, but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said (:D)
Marry me, Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your Dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say yes!"

The Post Break Up Song: 

It's alright, It's OK -Ashley Tisdale-

I really like this song, because it's about recovering from a break up. She knows she's strong and that she would survive. This song makes me smile! And the music is very head-nod-able! :D 

"No looking back

I wont regret, no

I will find my way

I'm broken

But I still have to say

It's alright, it's OK

I'm so much better without you

I won't be sorry

It's alright, OK

So don't you bother what I do

No matter what you say

I won't return

Our bridge has burned down

I'm stronger now"

The Sentimental Song:

I'll always remember you -Miley Cyrus/ Hannah Montana-

This song reminds me of school, all the friends and the fun we had together, specially in A'level. Being in the same class for almost 5years brought us closer than ever, and all the things we shared throughout the school life flashes infront of me when I hear this song. It makes me miss school! I sang part of this song at my graduation speech and those who were there would know that I was almost in tears when I finished. Yes, it makes me sentimental! 

"I always knew this day would come

We'd be standing one by one

With our future in our hands

So many dreams, so many plans

I always knew after all these years

There'd be laughter, there'd be tears

But never thought I'd walk away, 

With so much joy but so much pain

And it's so hard to say goodbye

But yesterday's gone, we gotta keep moving on

I'm so thankful for the moments

So glad I gotta know you

The times that we had, I'll keep like a photograph

And hold you in my heart forever

I'll always remember you!"

"Another chapter in the book

You can't go back, but you can look

And there we are on every page

Memories I'll always save

Up ahead on the open doors

Who knows what we're headed towards

I wish you love, I wish you luck

For you the world just opens up"

"Everyday that we had, all the good, all the bad, I'll keep them here inside

Yeah, one day we'll look back, we'll smile and we'll laugh

But right now we just cry

Cause it's so hard to say goodbye!"

The Medley:
Bruno Mars Medley- Victoria Justice & Max Schneider-

This is such an awesome medley of Bruno Mars songs! The way they change the songs from one to the other is so amazing, their voices are wonderful, and they are cute! And... you get it! ;) And of course all the credit goes to Potayto. He was the one who introduced medleys to me, and he suggested this one as the very first medley to be featured on my blog. :D Salute Potayto! xD

The Party Song:

Party Rock Anthem -LMFAO-

Love the music!!! And the part where they say, "Everyday I'm shuffling" and the music that follows!! Can't stand still when I hear the song! Shuffle people, Shuffle! :D

*Schyna shuffled away*

Just Press Play!

As you might already know, this week for me, has brought a whole new meaning to the word "busy"!! So I apologise for not writing longer posts, but hopefully by the end of next week, I can go back to writing endlessly! :D

So on this week's list I have:

The Motivational Song:
Life's What You Make It -Miley Cyrus/ Hannah Montana -

Ever since I watched Hannah Montana, I have been listening to this song whenever I need to remind myself that I can't slack off or give up just because I have too much to do or things look too depressing. And when I sing along, I feel a surge of energy I never knew I had before course through me, making me more enthusiastic and ready to finish what I started.
The parts I especially love are:

 "Don't let no small frustration, ever bring you down
No, No ,No, No
Just take a situation and turn it all around
With a new attitude everything can change
Make it how you want it to be!"
"Life is hard or it's a party,
the choice is up to you!"
"Things are looking up, anytime you want
All you gotta do is realise
that it's under your control
so let the good times rock and roll!"

The sad song: 
Behind These Hazel Eyes -Kelly Clarkson-

One of my best friends, Maan, sang this song to me and the minute I heard it, I fell in love with it! Even though listening to it makes me sad, it's just so beautiful that I simply can't skip it! This is also a song I know by-heart and sing along to!

"Here I am, Once again
I'm torn into pieces,
Can't deny it, Can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
but you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these Hazel Eyes!"

The happy song:

He could be the one -Miley Cyrus/ Hannah Montana-

No matter how depressed I am, this song always makes me feel better. When I sing along, I feel like I am in love (even if I'm not :P) and the awesomeness/shyness of the first phase -The Crush Phase- of faling in love surges through me! :D And when I sing the first parts, I can't help but smile! It is one of my Happy Songs! 

"He's lightening

Sparks are flying

Everywhere I go he's always on my mind and

I'm going crazy

About him lately

And I can't help myself from how my heart is racing

Think I'm really digging on his vibe

He really blows me away!"

The post breakup song:
Better Than Revenge -Taylor Swift-

The minute I heard this song, I started laughing, because Taylor said at the beginning, "Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did!" Only if some one would say that to heart-breakers! ;) The song's fierce and the seemingly rock music makes the whole concept of typical breakups due to cheating much less painful. And I love the things she says in the song.

"Sophistication isn't what you wear or who you know
or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Oh, they didn't teach you that in prep school, so it's up to me,
no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity!"

The party song:
Spotlight- Selena Gomez

I love this song mostly because of the music. It's just sooo sway-able! CAn't help but move my body when I hear the song! :D The lyrics is cool too!

"I can tell by the way that you feel
Something ain't going your way
Jeans too tight and your hair ain't right
We all get some of those days
Oh, throw that mirror away
Oh, you know it's gonna be okay"

"Wish I could press delete
We all got somethin' we don't like
Even Angelina Jolie
Oh, throw that mirror away
Oh, don't be going M.I.A"

"I can tell by the way you talk the talk
That something ain't going your way cause
Your jeans too tight and your hair ain't right
Well, we all get some of those days just
Take another deep breath, try to hit your reset
You know that I can relate, throw your
Hands in the air now, let me hear you shout out
Well, get out of my way"

I gotta run! Put your headphones on! I have data to be entered! xD
