All Of Me - John Legend | Video and Lyrics

Sometimes a song is perfect. This one is for you baby.




"All Of Me"- John Legend 


[Verse 1:]
What would I do without your smart mouth
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind
I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

[Bridge:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all, all of me
And you give me all, all of you, oh

[Verse 2:]
How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you

[Bridge:]
My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all, all of you, oh

Give me all of you
Cards on the table, we're both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it's hard

[Chorus:]
'Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me
I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I'm winning
'Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you

I give you all, all of me
And you give me all, all of you, oh

2Pac - Changes Lyrics and Video

I miss 2Pac. I love rap music, but ever since 2Pac died, no one is putting out this kind of lyric. 

RIP 2Pac.

"Changes" Video 





"Changes" Lyrics 


Come on come on
I see no changes. Wake up in the morning and I ask myself,
"Is life worth living? Should I blast myself?"
I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse I'm black.
My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch.
Cops give a damn about a negro? Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero.
Give the crack to the kids who the hell cares? One less hungry mouth on the welfare.
First ship 'em dope and let 'em deal to brothers.
Give 'em guns, step back, and watch 'em kill each other.
"It's time to fight back", that's what Huey said.
2 shots in the dark now Huey's dead.
I got love for my brother, but we can never go nowhere
unless we share with each other. We gotta start makin' changes.
Learn to see me as a brother 'stead of 2 distant strangers.
And that's how it's supposed to be.
How can the Devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
but things changed, and that's the way it is

[Bridge with changing ad libs]
Come on come on
That's just the way it is
Things'll never be the same
That's just the way it is
aww yeah
[Repeat]

I see no changes. All I see is racist faces.
Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races we under.
I wonder what it takes to make this one better place...
let's erase the wasted.
Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right.
'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight.
And only time we chill is when we kill each other.
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other.
And although it seems heaven sent,
we ain't ready to see a black President, uhh.
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact...
the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks.
But some things will never change.
Try to show another way, but they stayin' in the dope game.
Now tell me what's a mother to do?
Bein' real don't appeal to the brother in you.
You gotta operate the easy way.
"I made a G today" But you made it in a sleazy way.
Sellin' crack to the kids. "I gotta get paid,"
Well hey, well that's the way it is.

[Bridge]

[Talking:]
We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive.

And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace?
There's war on the streets and the war in the Middle East.
Instead of war on poverty,
they got a war on drugs so the police can bother me.
And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do.
But now I'm back with the facts givin' 'em back to you.
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp smack you up.
You gotta learn to hold ya own.
They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone.
But tell the cops they can't touch this.
I don't trust this, when they try to rush I bust this.
That's the sound of my tool. You say it ain't cool, but mama didn't raise no fool.
And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped and I never get to lay back.
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the payback.
Some buck that I roughed up way back... comin' back after all these years.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. That's the way it is. uhh

[Bridge 'til fade:]
Some things will never change

Delilah - Go


Guest post from Tatiana Anderson:




Delilah - Go


I've been waitin' for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What am I gonna do?
I let myself go

Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me

Strength I can't ignore
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
Knowing that you hear my scream

But ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh

Captured effortlessly
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
You filled my heart with a kiss
You give me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone

Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me

Strength I can't ignore
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
Knowing that you hear my scream

But ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh

Because who are you
To make me hmmm
And it's you ooh
And you go, and you go...

Ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh

I heard this song as it was used in a burlesque act and the passion in the performer’s eyes was crazy. You are feeling the music and recognizing it but the chorus hits and it’s her own. The way the body just listened to them music and moved to it without knowing where it was going to go was amazing. This song is proof that REAL music still exists and doesn't have to be popular to be found J OR used.

Hallelujah

Hallelujah:

  • The Song Lyrics
  • The Jeff Buckley Music Video
  • The definition of the word
  • The definition/listener interpretation of the song lyrics
  • My personal Hallelujah

"Hallelujah" Song Lyrics 


I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah


Hallelujah Video - Jeff Buckley




I've loved this song forever, having hear numerous versions of it performed and recorded since Cohen and Buckley's recordings... Buckley is still my favorite... but many others have done it justice. Who is your favorite?

"Hallelujah" Defined:

1. (Christianity / Ecclesiastical Terms) an exclamation of praise to God
2. an expression of relief or a similar emotion
n
1. an exclamation of "Hallelujah"
2. (Music, other) a musical composition that uses the word Hallelujah as its text


Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen song) Information 

"Hallelujah" is a song written by Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen, originally released on his studio album Various Positions (1984). Achieving little initial success, the song found greater popular acclaim through a cover by John Cale, which later formed the basis for a cover by Jeff Buckley.

*Note: Not to diminish the value in the origination, but if you listen to the Leonard Cohen version it's a little creepy.


Wikipedia says: 
"In 2004, Buckley's version was ranked number 259 on Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".[1] The same year Time called Buckley's version "exquisitely sung," observing "Cohen murmured the original like a dirge, but ... Buckley treated the ... song like a tiny capsule of humanity, using his voice to careen between glory and sadness, beauty and pain... It's one of the great songs."[17]"

So, if you listen to Jeff Buckley you really get a better feeling for the emotion these lyrics evoke. 
More from Wiki on Jeff:  
"In September 2007, a poll of fifty songwriters conducted by the magazine Q listed "Hallelujah" among the all-time "Top 10 Greatest Tracks" with John Legend calling Buckley's version "as near perfect as you can get. The lyrics to Hallelujah are just incredible and the melody's gorgeous and then there's Jeff's interpretation of it. It's one of the most beautiful pieces of recorded music I’ve ever heard."[18] In July 2009, the Buckley track was ranked number three on the 2009 Triple J Hottest 100 of All Time, a listener poll held every decade by the Australian radio station Triple J."[19]"


Hallelujah Song Lyrics Meanings

Of course there are lots of meanings and interpretations of this song.  My favorite interpretation was found here: http://www.lyricinterpretations.com/Leonard-Cohen/Hallelujah


"Most of the interpretations I have heard refer to biblical stories and of course it is impossible to ignore the analogies with King David and Bathsheba. However,I think these can obscure the meaning of the song and I would rather go beyond them. Analyzing a poem line by line sometimes misses the core of meaning which may actually be not fully realized by the poet himself. What after all was Kubla Khan, Coleridges poem about? It came out of a drug-induced reverie and the words are impossible to interpret literally.

What I see in the poem is a man who finds it hard to reconcile his own singular personal quest for truth as a spiritual seeker and as a creative artist with earthly love. He is "overthrown" by the beauty of the woman bathing on the roof and intoxicated with desire for her yet with that comes compromise. Being tied to a kitchen chair suggests being bound to domesticity and having his hair cut recalls Samson whose strength was lost when Delilah cut his hair. He feels he has sacrificed his power for ephemeral sexual desire, emotional needs and freedom from the burden of loneliness.

And inevitably the hallelujah, the ecstasy fades and with it bitterness and disillusionment since his lover has no feeling for creativity as evidenced by her lack of interest in music, his explanation of which seems to fall on deaf ears.

At the same time, the sexual magnetism, "down below" has diminished or even gone in the way that the energy of many relationships weaken into dead habit.

So there is a sense he has been left with nothing, doubting a god above and likening earthly love to a gunfight. It is as if he has betrayed his deepest yearnings and is only left with a cold and broken hallelujah, an empty exhortation, a state of inner desolation.

Yet the tone of the song is so bittersweet, so beautiful and sad that there might be a suggestion that he has reconciled those feelings and accepted the limits of the relationship, knowing that even sharing a life with someone cannot assuage his inner loneliness.

Hallelujah is a beautiful, ironic and melancholy masterpiece."

My Personal Hallelujah

My own interpretation is slightly more spiritual, although far from Biblical or religious. Today some deeper feelings arose in a conversation about spirituality and I found myself emotional and conflicted. Having been brought up religious and then later taking a different path, I have a lot of internal conflict when it comes to spirituality, religion and really the greater meaning of life. For some reason after my discussion, I found myself thinking of this song. The lyrics kept coming to mine and I found myself playing it over and over today, thinking about who I am and my own broken Hallelujah...
The lyrics in bold above represent my innermost thoughts on my relationship with God. Call it what you will, but my feelings toward my personal relationship with God can not be defined with a title or really any words. No, I am not religious. No, I do not "belong" to a church - but this doesn't mean I am not spiritual. This doesn't mean I don't believe in God. This doesn't mean I am anti religion or a non member.... not to me anyways.

I haven't "found" anything. I am not "reborn" or "saved"... I am just allowing myself to remain open and allowing myself to be okay with still relating to the teachings of what I once defined as my religion.

I don't belong to anything. But, I will not deny where I came from and I won't regret a life I didn't choose. I was born into a family deeply rooted in religion and I will never become bitter towards the people who did what they thought was right.

I am not who I used to be, and I will never be again... my Hallelujah may not sound like yours, but it's a Hallelujah just the same...

PM Dawn - I'd Die Without You

This is for you:




I'd Die Without You


Is it my turn to wish you were lying here?
I tend to dream you when I'm not sleeping.
Is it my turn to fictionalize my world?
Or even imagine your emotions... tell myself anything...
Is it my turn to hold you by your hands?
Tell you I love you and you not hear me...
Is it my turn to totally understand?
To watch you walk out of my life and not do a damn thing...

(Chorus)
If I have to give away...
The feeling that I feel.
If I have to sacrifice...
Oh, whatever babe, whatever baby.
If I have to take apart...
All that I am...

Is there anything that I would not do,
since I'd die without you...
Yeah baby
since I'd die without you...
since I'd die without you...

Oh, I apologize for all the things I've done.
But now I'm underwater and I'm drowning...
Is it my turn to be the one to cry?
Isn't it amazing how some things completely turn around...

So take every little piece of my heart...
Yeah, take every little piece of my soul...
Yeah, take every little piece of my mind...
'Cause if you're gone... inside...
I'd die without you...

I DID IT MY WAY…

My Way by Frank Sinatra
Lyrics:
And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain.
My friends, I'll say it clear;
I'll state my case of which I'm certain.

I've lived a life that's full -
I've travelled each and every highway.
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course -
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill - my share of losing.
But now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.

For what is a man? What has he got?
If not himself - Then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.

Yes, it was my way.

Thanks Chris, for tellin me this song reminds you of me. I love that.

Dixie Chicks – Not Ready To Make Nice

This pretty much says it all for me right now:

 



Dixie Chicks – Not Ready To Make Nice
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

I’m through with doubt
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a price
And I’ll keep paying

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it

I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

What it is you think I should

Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting

Song of the Day: Kindred The Family Soul "Where Would I Be"

Kindred The Family Soul "Where Would I Be" Video




Kindred The Family Soul "Where Would I Be" Lyrics


I just wanna ask you a question
Where would I be
If I
Didn't know you

Who would I be, baby
If I didn't know you

Hook:
Who would I be if I didn't know you?
Where would I be if I didn't know you?
What whould I be if I didnt know you?
Who would I be if I didnt know you?

You dont recognize it, I tell you no lie
That you're the reason why my life has turned right
Everyday I'm thankful, but at times I dont show you
My world would be incomplete if I didnt know you

Hook

Everytime you kiss me, you make me remember
That sunny fall day, at the end of September
Boy I cant imagine no, what would I do
If I didnt know you, you you you

Hook


Bridge
Where would I be?

Jason Mraz - Lucky featuring Colbie Caillat

Awww, this song is so sweet. Makes me wanna sign a duet with Gio:

Lucky

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Gravity by John Mayer - Video and Lyrics

This is one of my favorite songs of all time… I`m addicted to it…






Gravity
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down

Whoa I'll never know
What makes this man
With all the love
That his heart can stand
Dream of ways
To throw it all away

Whoa Gravity
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down

Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees

instrumental

Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees

Oh gravity
Stay the hell away from me
Oh gravity
Has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?

Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where keep me where the light is
