I really like the song Jesus Take the Wheel by Carrie Underwood. Very powerful song....

I recently put that in my iPod. :headphone:

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I love music and dancing, was in choir all four years of high school, sang at church, etc., have a fairly decent soprano voice, but my dancing, I compare it to Elaine in Seinfeld....(nuff said..)

Love Avril's new song!

Keep Holding On

Hi Misti
They are the main couple of one of my favorite spanish soap operas "Rosa Salvaje" (Savege Rose?).

I first saw it back in 1987 when I was 11 yrs old and they are now showing it again on TV :woohooo:

I was in the church choir from 6th to 8 th grade, and in the choir in high school. In the church choir we used to perform Christmas carols at our airport and we even recorded an album!! Nobody probably bought it but our families though, lol. I took piano lessons from 8 years old until I was in my first years in college. I had to stop going though because I was so stressed from college.

I love disco and dancing too!!!

Beckie

I knew that Disco wasn't alive only in my head! :haha: It lives, it lives, it lives!

I think that's sooo cool that your choir made an album. Wow!

Ok, here is a video from one of my all time favorite bands: Ace Of Base.. I don't really care for the video, but I love the song.

Some of the new songs out that I really like:

"Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie:

Da Da Da Da
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity

[CHORUS:]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry

The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

[CHORUS]

Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity

[CHORUS]

La Da Da Da Da Da


"Moments" by Emerson Drive:

I was coming to the end of a long long walk
When a man crawled out of a cardboard box
Under the E. Street Bridge
Followed me on to it
I went out halfway across
With that homeless shadow tagging along
So I dug for some change
Wouldn't need it anyway
He took it lookin' just a bit ashamed
He said, You know, I haven't always been this way

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do
Like that plane ride coming home from the war
That summer my son was born
And memories like a coat so warm
A cold wind can't get through
Lookin' at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments

I stood there tryin' to find my nerve
Wondering if a single soul on Earth
Would care at all
Miss me when I'm gone
That old man just kept hanging around
Lookin' at me, lookin' down
I think he recognized
That look in my eyes
Standing with him there I felt ashamed
I said, You know, I haven't always felt this way

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do
Like the day I walked away from the wine
For a woman who became my wife
And a love that, when it was right,
Could always see me through
Lookin' at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments

I know somewhere 'round a trashcan fire tonight
That old man tells his story one more time
He says

I've had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do
Like that cool night on the E. Street Bridge
When a young man almost ended it
I was right there, wasn't scared a bit
And I helped to pull him through
Lookin' at me now you might not know it
Oh, lookin' at me now you might not know it
But I've had my moments



"Hey There, Delilah" by Plain White T's:

hey there delilah
whats it like in new york city
im a thousand miles away
but girl tonight you look so pretty
yes you do
time square cant shine as bright as you
i swear its true

hey there delilah
dont you worry about the distance
im right there if you get lonely
give this song another listen
close your eyes
listen to my voice its my disguise
im by your side

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
what you do to me

hey there delilah
i know times are gettin hard
but just believe me girl
someday ill pay the bills with this guitar
we'll have it good
we'll have the life we knew we would
my word is good

hey there delilah
ive got so much left to say
if every simple song i wrote to you
would take your breath away
id write it all
even more in love with me youd fall
we'd have it all

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me

a thousand miles seems pretty far
but they've got planes and trains and cars
id walk to you if i had no other way
our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
that none of them have felt this way
delilah i can promise you
that by the time that we get through
the world will never ever be the same
and youre to blame

hey there delilah
you be good and dont you miss me
two more years and youll be done with school
and ill be makin history like i do
you know its all because of you
we can do whatever we want to
hey there delilah heres to you
this ones for you

oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me
oh its what you do to me

I thought it might be fun to post videos of songs we like. For no particular reason, I'll start with the Beatles doing "If I Fell." This was one of my favorite songs back when I was a kid in the late 1800s.

A Diffrent World By Bucky Covington I thought i would't post an Alan Jackson one lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AKe8kOueDw

This Song is Awsome :woohooo:

I love this song, "The Reason" by "Hoobastank". LOL...never thought in a million years I'd likes a group with a name like THIS!! I've used an X-Files video though, since I really don't like the video by the group. Any X-Files fans out there?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0bx3N5IA8Y

(Rob, I thoroughly enjoyed that Beatles video...I've never thought to check them out on YouTube! That was great...gosh, they look so happy singing that song, don't they? )

Oh, and Jacob, I'm not into country, but you're right...that's a good song! The message is so true...kinda makes me sad!

i don't really have a fovorite

One of the most beautiful songs they ever wrote! Great harminization! Great movie too!

The late 1800's?

Beckie

Agreed, Beckie! Here's another pretty one from that period - "This Boy."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--IZ2UA0xL0

And I was exaggerating about the 1800s. It was actually 1911. :shifty:

Hey, I remember Bucky well, Jacob. Yet another American Idol contestant who's doing very well for himself.

And great song, Amy! I'd heard of Hoobastank, but had never heard any of their songs. It's very catchy.

I used to watch the X-Files all the time. I probably saw every episode in syndication. Very good show!

Cool Rob...kind of funny that a Little House/Dr. Quinn girl would like the X-Files, but it's all about the 'chemistry' between characters for me. X-Files had that. I have all the seasons, and watch more for Scully/Mulder than the sci-fi aspect of it.

Ok, so I have another one! My favorite cd right now is James Blunt, who is amAzing....I can't think of a song of his I don't like! (he's most popular for "Beautiful", but I thought I'd share a less well known one...quite a catchy tune!)

Love that song too! I have several Beatles Albums including all of the anthologies! I was obsessed with them in high school! I have the anthology on video and a ton of books on them! I even have some post Beatle albums from them. And other videos.

Beckie

Beckie, as a fellow Beatlemaniac, maybe you've heard of this song. A little ditty Paul wrote that kind of changed everything. :shifty:

Watch at the end where John gives Paul a bouquet of flowers... sort of.
