Alias : More than Words Can Say lyrics and music video

Title : More than words Can say (I Need You Now)
Artist : Alias
Album : Alias (Self-titled album)
Released : 1990
Comment: Perhaps Rock Ballads are not available now, some artists now just revive classic songs like this. More Than Words Can Say most of the times mistakenly thought by others as Firehouse's song you would see it usually at pirated CD's.

I must agree with the Youtube user who commented :

Power ballads, gotta love 'em. Takes real talent that's why you don't hear this stuff anymore. No band today has a REAL ear for crafting a song like this.

More than words can say (I Need You Now) Lyrics

Here I am at six o'clock in the morning
Still thinking about you
It's still hard, at six o'clock in the morning
To sleep without you

And I know that it might
Seem too late for love
All I know

I need you now
More than words can say
I need you now
I've got to find a way
I need you now
Before I lose my mind
I need you now

Here I am, I'm looking out my window
I'm dreaming about you
Can't let you go, at six o'clcok in the morning
I feel you beside me

And I know that it might
Seem too late for love
For love Oh, Oh, Oh

I need you now
More than words can say
I need you now
I've got to find a way
I need you now
Before I lose my mind
I need you now
More than words can say
I need you now
Oh I got to hear you say
I need you now
Before I lose my mind
I need you now
I need you now

Smash Mouth: All Star lyrics and music video

Title : All Star
Artist : Smash Mouth
Album : Self-titled
Comment: Music video featured Ben Stiller and it's one of the hottest alternative songs in late 90's.
Here's an entry from Wikipedia

about a man remembering the things people have told him to motivate him to become a rock star. The people in the song are all unnamed, referred to instead as "Somebody once told me" or "Somebody once asked". The song ends with the narrator agreeing to "get away from this place", leaving uncertain whether he finally became a rock star or not.



Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Back to the rule and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

Sheryl Crow's All I wanna Do Lyrics

Hit it!
This ain't no disco
It ain't no country club either
This is LA!

"All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,"
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It's apropos
Of nothing
He says his name's William but I'm sure,
He's Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy
And he's plain ugly to me
And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole
life
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing their cars
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing
As best they can in skirts in suits

Charice : Pyramid lyrics and music video

Title : Pyramid
Artist : Charice feat Iyaz

Comment: Charice's first hit single Pyramid gave her an opportunity to established her own identity without repeatedly singing Whitney Houston's and Celine Dion's hits. Charice, a first-runner up in a singing contest in local television network here in Philippines didn't stop looking for her fortune. After ended up on second place in a singing contest, she started uploading videos to video streaming site Youtbe which was watched by millions of viewers and caught the attention of international medias.

Here's more about Charice's hit single Pyramid. [Source: Charicemusic.com]

On first glance, Charice looks like any other teenager: pretty, petite and filled with non stop energy. But when the sweet-faced 17-year old opens her mouth to sing – with a profound, rich and soaring 10 decibel voice from every inch of her 5 feet 1 inch body – the audience quite literally gasps. And at 13 million hits and counting on YouTube tell us, that audience is growing at a staggering pace. Fast forward to May 2010: Charice’s US debut CD is scheduled to be released on 143/Reprise Records with her single, “Pyramid” featuring labelmate Iyaz (who recently spent four weeks at #1 with his international smash hit, “Replay”). “Pyramid" will be released to Top 40 radio in March with remixes already getting airplay at the clubs.

Charice's Pyramid Lyrics

Shawty's love is like a pyramid (ooh)
We stand together till the very end (eh ooh)
There'll never be another love for sure (ooh)
Iyaz and Charice let we go

Stones, heavy like the love you've shown (shown)
Solid as the ground we've known (known)
And I just wanna carry on
We took it from the bottom up (no no no)
And even in a desert storm (yeah)
Sturdy as a rock we hold (oh)
Wishing every moment froze
Now I just wanna let you know
Earthquakes can't shake us
Cyclones can't break us
Hurricanes can't take away our love

Blink 182's Whats My Age Again lyric

I took her out, it was a Friday night
I wore cologne to get the feeling right
We started makin' out and she took off my pants
But then, I turned on the TV

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're 23
And are still more amused by TV shows
What the hell is ADD, my friends say I should act my age
What's my age again?
What's my age again?

Third Eye Blind - Jumper lyrics and music video

Title : Jumper
Artist : Third Eye Blind (3eB)
Album : Third Eye Blind
Comment: Have you put your past away? Perhaps you'll be. Jumper is actually a story told to the group by their manager who committed suicide by jumping off the bridge. It also includes lead singer Jenkins' difficulties.

Here's an entry from Wikipedia about Jumper.

The song is also about Jenkins' own difficult, often alienating childhood experiences. He says, "My parents divorced, and that hurt me. We were poor and I went to a rich high school. I was dyslexic and had Attention Deficit Disorder, which I still have. So I carried all these things with me. One afternoon I had this epiphany. I said 'You know what? I don't have it all together. I come from stuff that was really difficult, and that's me. That's who I am.' I embraced that. There's a line in the song that says, 'Everyone's got to face down the demons/Maybe today we can put the past away.' It's very much a song about putting the past away."

Third Eye Blind's Jumper lyrics


I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand
I would understand
The angry boy, a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don't belong
You're the first to fight
You're way too loud
You're the flash of light
On a burial shroud
I know something's wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say
Put the past away

The Cranberries' Ode To My Family lyrics

Understand the things I say
Don’t turn away from me
Cause I spent half my life out there

Do you like me, do you like me standing there
D’you notice, d’you know
Do you see me, do you see me
Does anyone care

Title : 21 Guns
Artist : Green Day
Album : 21st Century Breakdown
Comment : One of my favorite New wave or 80's hit. Looking at Industry's discography, it appears that this is their only hit. Perhaps I can say it's a one hit wonder.

Industry's State of the Nation Lyrics

I see them marching off to war,
They're looking so heroic
I'm told they won't be gone for long,
But that's a lie and they know it
Ten thousand gone, they won't return,
Never to be seen again
Strategic games are all we learn,
In the ends, well they say...

Green Day's 21 Guns Lyrics

Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?

Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

The Man Who Can't Be Moved Lyrics

Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Saying, "If you see this girl can you tell her where I am?"

Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you

Moonstar 88 : Torete Lyrics and Music Video

Title : Torete
Artist : Moonstar 88
Album :
Comments: If I'm not mistaken, Torete is the first single popularized by this band. After Torete hit the airwaves, I only heard Moonstar 88 again when Kami nAPO muna album tribute to 70's trio-band APO Hiking society went out in 2006. The group may have released a followed-up single but I guess it wasn't hit as compare to Torete.

Enjoy watching Moonstar88's Torete Music Video



Moonstar88's Torete Lyrics

Sandali na lang
Maari bang pagbigyan
Aalis na nga
Maaari bang hawakan ang iyong mga kamay
Sana ay maabot ng langit ang iyong mga ngiti
Sana ay masilip

Refrain:
Wag kang mag-alala
Di ko ipipilit sa 'yo
Kahit na lilipad ang isip ko'y torete sa 'yo

Ilang gabi pa nga lang
Nang tayo'y pinagtagpo
Na parang may tumulak
Nanlalamig, nanginginig na ako

Akala ko nung una
May bukas ang ganito

Incubus - Pardon Me


Incubus : Pardon Me Lyrics

Pardon me while I burst
Pardon me while I burst
A decade ago, I never thought I would be at twenty three
On the verge of spontaneous combustion, woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
An ominous landscape of never ending calamity
I need you to hear, I need you to see
That I have had all I can take
And exploding seems like a definite possibility to me
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world and it's people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me, I'll never be the same
Not two days ago, I was having a look in a book

We passed upon the stair, we spoke in was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise, I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

The Wallflowers Heroes Lyrics

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
We can be heroes, just for one day

Oh I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be, yes, it's just for one day

I, I remember
Standing by the wall
The guns, they shot above our heads
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall
And the shame was on the other side
Oh, we can beat them, forever and ever
Then we could be heroes, just for one day
