Play's "Us Against the World" is a song that I enjoy listening to and never get tired of listening to. It is just an innocent song that I find myself listening to despite the fact that I am not of the target age range to listen to it. However, if a song makes me feel good, then why not listen to it. There are songs that I often listen to on my player that I tend to avoid listening to. That could be construed as a waste of time downloading songs while at the same time just listening to just one song that I like. On the other hand, can we all listen to just one song any one likes? The song from Play is one of many songs that I too like. There are many artists who have created many songs so there is obviously some good music. One has to know where to look.
Oh, baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here?
Oh, baby, baby
I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby,
'Cause I need to know now, oh, because...
[Chorus:]
My loneliness is killing me (and I)
I must confess, I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
Oh, baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy, you got me blinded
Oh, baby, baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby,
'Cause I need to know now, oh, because...
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, baby
Oh, baby, baby
Ah, yeah, yeah
Oh, baby, baby
How was I supposed to know?
Oh, pretty, baby
I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess
That my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
[Chorus]
I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
I remember where I was on September 11, 2001. I couldn't it. I never realized that terrorism could happen anywhere, much less the United States. However, it affected me personally in a way that was different from others. I could not and have not understood what was really going on. All that I knew was that it was a tragedy and that I prayed about it. It is hard for me to explain how I felt about 9-11. Right now, we are commemorating the 15th anniversary of what took place in 2001. May those who lost their lives rest in peace.
I wanted to take a long, long break. In fact I wanted to take a long break from blogging, forever. I began to grow tired of blogging. In fact, I seem to have grown tired of quite a few things. I realize that life is just too short to hate and be tired. Anyways, I have decided to do a timeline of my life. I wrote my autobiography a few months ago. I didn't realize what kind of person I truly was, am, and desire to be. I will go with a timeline that illustrate my life in pics, videos, reflections, or facts about my life and what was going on that year. First of all, I was born in 1974.

Soul Train- Earth, Wind, and Fire - "Mighty Mighty"
"Rock Your Baby" by George MaCrae
1974 Music Fact
"Waterloo" by ABBA
Even though this song constantly repeats the name of the battle that spelt the end of Napoleon's empire, the French, like the rest of Europe, were more than happy to buy this song in large quantities. The single spent 12 weeks on the French charts, peaking at #3. In Belgium, where the Battle of Waterloo took place, this song spent five weeks at #1.
There is nothing like listening to great music, regardless of the genre. Right now, I am listening to Willie Nelson. I miss all music like this. I like country music, don't get me wrong, but I hate listening to it on the radio. I am not as big a country music fan as I once was. It seems that some of t he modern-day country artists are just way too mainstream and less country for my tastes. I'm sure those artists have a lot of talent, but I am just not interested in listening to it. I grew up in a time where country music was the themes from "Dukes of Hazzard" and the "Fall Guy". I guess, being a child of the 80s, I was just carefree. I believe that even what is considered campy back then is different from nowadays. Here are some of the songs that I have been listening to lately:
"Midnight Rider" by Willie Nelson
"On the Road Again" by Willie Nelson
"Remember When" by Allen Jackson
"Whiskey Lullaby" by Brad Paisley and Alison Krause
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world
I met someone the other night
Someone I really started to like
How will I know if he's right for me
I wonder if we are meant to be
Don't start to like him too much
Too soon
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world
You know the boy I started to see
He thinks he can have it all for free
I wonder if he's the one for me
I try to talk to myself and to see
Don't start to like him too much
Too soon
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world
Whenever you're near there is no fear
It feel's like there's nothing I can't do
You make me feel strong
'Cause it's here with you that I belong
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
There ain't nobody else but you
That makes me feel the way that I do
There ain't nobody else but you
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world
There is no one else that I could say this to
And there is nothing better than to talk to you
If you have a problem, I'll be here for you
'Cause girl, you always know that
It's us against the world.
