Musical Post 5: Wherever I go

so, this one ends my musical posts.
For now.

One Republic for me is sticky. I hear the song, love it, make it an anthem, put on repeat. These guys have this thing... can't explain.

So 'Wherever I go' to me was like PB to my Jelly. No pun intended. I mean it like a perfect fit. Ah, forget it.

I was in the middle of my Princesses books, was all about fairy tales and magical moments. So, these guys tunes, voice and lyrics were just so nice... Loved to have them with me for a long time. My mused was pretty pleased with it...

Let's ride in this magic, come along.

I know I could lie but I’m telling the truth

Wherever I go there’s a shadow of you

I know I could try looking for something new

But wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

Some people lie but they're looking for magic

Others are quietly going insane

I feel alive when I’m close to the madness

No easy love could ever make me feel the same

I know I could lie, but I won't lie to you

Wherever I go, you're the ghost in the room

I don't even try looking for something new

Cause wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

Some people try but they can't find the magic

Others get down on their knees and they pray

I come alive when I’m close to the madness

No easy love could ever make me feel the same

Make me feel the same

Make me feel the same, same, same

I know I could lie but I’m telling the truth

Wherever I go there’s a shadow of you

I know I could try looking for something new

But wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

Wherever I go, I'll be looking for you, you

Some people pray to their god for some magic

Cause no easy love could ever make them feel the same

No easy love could ever make me feel the same

Make me feel the same, same, same

I know I could lie but I’m telling the truth

Wherever I go there’s a shadow of you

I know I could try looking for something new

But wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

You think it's a lie when I'm telling the truth

Wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

Wherever I go, I'll be looking for you

Looking for you, looking for you, ah

Musical Post 4: There goes my heart

And my heart goes again because Lisa Stansfield is one of my favorite artists since forever.

She reminds me of college and partying with dear friends who are not around anymore. She tastes like good days, discover of adulthood, the unknown adventure of life.

And so, this song 'Hre goes my heart' carries all that and a lovely lyric in a lovely tune for her lovely voice.

My Muse doesn't even have to make a big effort, I just need to close my eyes and see the story in my mind.

I'm just the one you see

Every day

But you don't look at me the way

I always pray you will

I'm just another face lost in the crowd

With all the unfamiliar faces and places

But still

There goes my heart

There goes my heart again

I would give anything

Just to let you know

There goes my heart

There goes my everything

Turning inside out

Inside down

Turning inside out

Inside down

I think of all those looks you've thrown my way

How I missed all those glances for romancing

You didn't even care

I take the long way home

Imagine you're there

Right there by my side

Gone for the way every night

There goes my heart

There goes my heart again

I would give anything

Just to let you know

There goes my heart

There goes my everything

Turning inside out

Inside down

Turning inside out

Inside down

I sit in the same old place

And look at your amazing face

Day after day

And then you walk away

There goes my heart

There goes my heart again

I would give anything

Just to let you know

There goes my heart

There goes my everything

Turning inside out

Inside down

Turning inside out

Inside down

There goes my heart

There goes my heart again

I would give anything

Just to let you know

There goes my heart

There goes my everything

Turning inside out

Inside down

Turning inside out

Inside down

And in the end I get a taste of Gwineth Paltrow singing Just my imagination in Duets. 

Love this song, Lisa.

Musical Post 3: We don't talk anymore

This is a song I hear all the time.

Coincidentally, when i discovered this song on VH1, I was writing my Princess #6 and her story has a lot in common with this song. 

But frankly, I don't know if what makes me like 'We don't talk anymore' so much is Charlie's Puth' voice, or Selena's (ha!) or the tunes... Maybe a mix of it all with the lyrics that in my opinion make a perfect fit.

I particular like this verse: Should've known your love was a game, now I can't get you out of my brain, oh, it's such a shame

It's another loooong lyric, but I can't edit it. So, let us just sing along. Shall we?

We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore, like we used to do

We don't love anymore

What was all of it for?

Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

I just heard you found the one you've been looking

You've been looking for

I wish I would have known that wasn't me

Cause even after all this time I still wonder

Why I can't move on

Just the way you did so easily

Don't wanna know

What kind of dress you're wearing tonight

If he's holding onto you so tight

The way I did before

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game

Now I can't get you out of my brain

Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore

We don't talk anymore, like we used to do

We don't love anymore

What was all of it for?

Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

I just hope you're lying next to somebody

Who knows how to love you like me

There must be a good reason that you're gone

Every now and then I think you

Might want me to come show up at your door

But I'm just too afraid that I'll be wrong

Don't wanna know

If you're looking into her eyes

If she's holding onto you so tight the way I did before

I overdosed

Should've known your love was a game

Now I can't get you out of my brain

Oh, it's such a shame

That we don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore (We don't, we don't)

We don't talk anymore, like we used to do

We don't love anymore (We don't, we don't)

What was all of it for? (We don't, we don't)

Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do

Like we used to do

here goes my Muse...

Musical Post 2: The sound

So, the new songs in my Ipod.

The 1975 apparently is a famous group of which I had NEVER heard about until last weekend when they rocked São Paulo's Lollapaloza festival. Yeah, well, shame on me.

Now I am a fan.

Favorite so far: The sound.

What's not to like? Great beat, looong lyrics to die for... Love it.

Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound

I know the sound, of your heart

I can't believe I forgot your name

Oh baby won't you come again?

She said "I've got a problem with your shoes and your tunes

But I might move in" and

"I thought that you were straight, now I'm wondering"

You're so conceited, I

Said "I love you"

What does it matter if I lie to you?

I don't regret it but I'm glad that we're through

So don't you tell me that you 'just don't get it'

'Cause I know you do

Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound

I know the sound, of your heart

It's not about reciprocation it's just all about me

A sycophantic, prophetic, Socratic junkie wannabe

There's so much skin to see

A simple Epicurean Philosophy

And you say I'm such a cliche

I can't see the difference in it either way

And we left things to protect my mental health

But you call me when you're bored 

and you're playing with yourself

Well I know when you're around 'cause I know the sound

I know the sound, of your heart

Here's what I think of a possible plot: Supernatural! Ha!

Gotta just give my muse time to 

spread her wings!... ;)

Musical Post 1: Cups

Hi,
as you know, I'm highly inspired by music, specially when running/jogging. So, there are some new tunes on mu Ipod that get me plotting a story before I even realize I'm tripping.

One of those songs is Cups by Anna Kendrick.

Several things here string in my mind when the tunes start:
- the cup rhythm... Cool but slightly annoying
- her voice is soft and thin... it's pleasurable but not quite
- the lyrics... does she want the other to follow her or not?

I got my  ticket for the long way 'round

Two bottless of whiskey for the way

And I sure would like some sweet company

And I'm leaving tomorrow, what-do-ya-say?

When I'm gone

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

You're gonna miss me by my hair

You're gonna miss me everywhere

You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

I got my  ticket for the long way 'round

The one with the prettiest of views

It's got mountains, it's got rivers, it's got sights to give you shivers

But it sure would be prettier with you

Of course, here I go imagining all this: a pretty girl with a nice voice arranging a long trip somewhere far and making it clear to the guy left behind he1s gonna regret his attitude. Oh, dear: there's a plot there!...

Here I go...

BTW: haven't watched the movie Pitch Perfect 1 or 2 yet and I swear I JUST DISCOVERED this song!!

A new glimpse of love

Hey,

So, I've been wondering about a new short story strictly to post here, a glimpse on the Prince of Pemberley Dizzy's life.

 

A love love love long scene, maybe three scenes in one. Hot, of course, you know how they are...

 

But also, some problems on their horizon, something to upset His Royal Highness' good life. 

 

How about that?...

It's cooking here in my head.

Soon, pretty soon.

See ya

Fawkes

hello,
there are things that keep enchanting me. 
* The moment one accepts someone else's love and turns into a 'we'
* The workings of fate tossing our lives this way and that
* The conversion of minds and hearts and stars and eveything else to make something work out even when it has failed before
* Being the right person at the right place in the right time

My books are more often than not talking about these things, these magical moments.

And some of them can be joined in a particular situation: 

a come back 

rise from the ashes

Harry Potter series had Fawkes the phoenix, 

the bird has saved the day a few times.

But isn't our own ability to burn up, 

dust ourselves off and 

come back 

a lot more interesting?

I'm always trying.

Sometimes I manage...

❤❤❤
