Interpol- "PDA" 9.5/10

Well, I had a nice long thing written up about this song, but I just got the white screen of death when I tried to post it, so being forced to reword it regardless, I'll just say that melody/music part = 10/10 and favorite; lyrics don't do as much for me and seem a bit disjointed, but I do still like the "We have 200 couches" part XD Also love the random bass drop in each verse and the long outro where it gets more complex and emotional. All around great song, definitely want to hear more from them.
 
Rihanna - Rockstar

I really like this song from her.

She's got a lot of great singles but this one is just awesome. <3 It's one of the only songs from her that Steve likes as well.

I believe Slash is in this too which just makes it all the more awesome. XD

Simple lyrics, but still great. =)

Misery Business - Paramore

I was playing Guitar Hero yesterday, and was like wondering about this song. My cousin said this song was 'pretty tough', and well, considering how I wanted to challenge myself - especially since I rarely come to this cousin's place, and more so rarely play Guitar Hero... Well, I tried playing this song, and gosh, it was a 'oh-so-this-is-the-song' moment for me.

Kind of brought me back to the realization I had been wondering what the hell was this song when I first heard it. When it was still hot in my region, I was perpetually wondering what the title was, but I never bothered to go find out... Until I intentionally found out now.

And damn, this song is quite nice to go into Hard Rocker mode with, with all that head swinging and all... But oh well.
 
Rihanna - Only Girl (In the World)

A different kind of song from her and it's leaning towards a dance kind of sound. It sounds very Kelly Rowland, but when the chorus kicks in, it really works. Rihanna's got a really powerful voice and this is my new favourite song. It's ridiculously catchy and the production is not too overhyped either. A pretty good song for her new album.

9/10
 
Happy - Sita


Dutch girl. Old song. :ryan: I liked it ever since I heard it for the first time. xD It's just got that happy tune to it, and that kickass beat. Ahhh, good times. =)

It all seems perfect but ain't perfect just as boring as hell...? ♪
 
MakeDamnSure - Taking Back Sunday

In summer of 2006, I seen these guys live, and they were awesome, and hearing them on cd/saved on comp is just as good. They're great, and this song is one of their best imo. Loving it fulltime:ryan:
 
Song of Prayer~Ixion - FFX OST

Definitely one of my favorite of the "Hymn of the Fayth" songs. The operah-like vocals are total win imo. Don't know what, but I just love everything about it - the high-pitch vocals, the way he sounds when the singer sings - everything.

10/10
 
Rasheeda - My Bubble Gum [click to listen]

I remember my friend had this as her song on her Myspace profile, this was like, 4 years ago? And then I had to do a choreography with it in the Dance Team, but I forgot to ask who made it. I haven't heard this song in forever. So I had forgotten who sung it until now. I think its a cute song with a catchy beat to it too. I think if I wanted to, I'd make another choreography to it with my friend just because it would bring back the memory of being on the dance team.

Two Steps from Hell - Heart of Courage

​

A very uplifting song. I like the fact it's featured in the new Chronicles of Narnia film. It sounds like it could be used during an epic battle to the death. It's also been used in the likes of Avatar, too. Beautiful piece of music and awe-inspiring.

10/10

Ke$ha - We R Who We R

Brilliant song and whilst it's not much different from her previous works, it's ridiculously catchy as always. I love the message it gives to young people. The backstory to the song is particularly interesting and pretty amazing. This is something in between the likes of Tik Tok and Take It Off.

Ellie Goulding - Your Song

Well, John Lewis struck some oil here for the advertisement on this occasion. Who better than have Ellie to cover an old Elton John song? And to be honest, I've been playing this over and over again and even singing along to it myself, so this cover has really struck a chord with me. The song itself ticks that clichéd expression of simple but effective. No voice trickery here, it's just Ellie and her voice against the piano. It's such a shame that this song will be beaten by whatever this year's X-Factor winning single will be during the Christmas period, but then again I can't really ask for more, can I? xD

If It Means A Lot To You - A Day to Remember feat. Sierra Kusterbeck of VersaMerge

With the acoustic guitar, Sierra's great vocals in the second verse, and the lovely lyrics, this song is the total package. I definitely love this melody, and pretty much awesome song is awesome. :ryan:
 
Say Anything - Marianas Trench

My new favourite song by them. It's absolutely amazing. Catchy verses, and even more catchy choruses. I love the lyrics, and his voice is fucking amazing. Very cool song. It's been on repeat for a while now. :ryan: LOOOOOOOOVE the chorus.


I never took you for a trick, but
Sometimes, I don't know what you want
I can take it if you need to,
Take this out on someone

That little bitch with her head held so high
Talking shit, and I
Cut myself so I could feel something I
Know is not a lie

That one stings a little,
I'm always in the middle
I don't expect, but try me,
And you will always find me here

This is where I scream from

Yeah, you can take it all away and i'll miss
There's a little bit of you in all this
You can say you only think you know, yeah
Please, there's a better bit of me to see yet,
'Cause you haven't see any of my best
Know I hate myself without you now, yeah

Hurts the same when nobody knows
Guess that's just how it goes
And I, I won't say anything at all

I was taking on a dollar sign, anxious,
Scared of what you need
Everybody wants a piece of you,
Everyone takes a piece of me

That one stings a little,
I'm always in the middle
I don't expect, but try me,
And you will always find me here

This is where I scream from

Yeah, You can take it all away and i'll miss
There's a little bit of you in all this
You can say you only think you know, yeah
oh, Please, there's a better bit of me to see yet,
'Cause you haven't see any of my best
Know I hate myself without you now, yeah

Hurts the same when nobody knows,
Guess that's just how it goes,
And I, I won't say anything at all

(I-I-I-Iiii)
This is the hook, take it like I took
I'm shaking like I shook before
Never ever getting better off
And I can only watch
This is where I stopped before,
Not another piece of me,
I always slip away from
I always slip away from

I won't say anything, but

Yeah, you can take it all away and i'll miss
There's a little bit of you in all this
You can say you only think you know, yeah
Please, there's a better bit of me to see yet,
'Cause you haven't see any of my best
Know I hate myself

Hurts the same when nobody knows,
Guess that's just how it goes
And I, I won't say anything at all
I won't say anything at all
I won't say anything at all​
 
Soundscape to Ardor - Bleach OST 3

This song is just amazing - the piano, violin, cello - everything is good. And the way that their all organized in their own specific order, then put all together is just brilliance. I just love it, pure and simple :ryan:.
 
Fever-Bullet For My Valentine

Off of their newer album, Fever, one of the better songs off it, IMO. I only started listening to that album a couple weeks ago, even though I have had it now for about two months. :hmmm: Still a good song.

Third Eye Blind- "How's It Going To Be"

One of my favorite bands, this was one of their hit singles way back when they were still popular. I love moments like this though, usually I'll listen to my favorite bands just because I love the songs, but right now, I'm listening to this one because it's exactly how I'm feeling right now. I've been kind of miffed at how one of my friends has been treating me lately, and I've been trying to figure out what to say to him the next time I talk to him (if I ever get a chance again), and what it would be like if I just told him to bugger off if he can't be a better friend than that. Trying to weigh whether it's worth it to have to be treated badly just to be able to have a few laughs with him every once in a while, or if I should just stop talking to him so I don't have to stress over it anymore. I know this song is kind of a love song and that part has nothing to do with this situation I'm in, but the overall "how's it gonna be" part is kind of resonating with me right now :hmmm: 15/10.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuAGVr-O-3E

I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore
Before you take a swing
I wonder
What are we fighting for
When I say out loud
I want to get out of this
I wonder
Is there anything I'm going to miss

I wonder how it's going to be
When you don't know me
How's it going to be
When you're sure I'm not there
How's it going to be
When there's no one there to talk to, between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it going to be
How's it going to be

Where we used to laugh
There's a shouting match
Sharp as a thumbnail scratch
A silence I can't ignore
Like the hammock by the doorway we spent time in
Swings empty, I don't see lightning like last fall when it was always
About to hit me

I wonder how's it going to be when it goes down
How's it going to be
When you're not around
How's it going to be
When you found out there was nothing
Between you and me
'Cause I don't care
How's it going to be

How's it going to be
When you don't know me any more
And how's it going to be

Want to get myself back in again
The soft dive of oblivion
Wanna taste the salt of your skin
The soft dive of oblivion
Oblivion

How's it going to be
When you don't know me any more
How's it going to be
How's it going to be

Misguided Ghosts - Paramore

Considering Paramore's an alternative rock band, with most of their songs with the heavy use of drums and the electric guitar, I'm quite impressed to note that this song was played out with only the use of an acoustic guitar, and extremely well too. Not forgetting to add that, to me at least, like most of their other songs, the lyrics are meaningful enough for my liking.

But I guess the most important part is that the tune's amazing. Not a song that you can bob your head to, unlike many of their other songs, but this one's the sort you can listen when you're feeling 'emo', or in need of some way to cool down.

Crushcrushcrush - Paramore

Hands down my favorite song from them. Hayley's voice shines in this song out of them all imo. Guitar and drums are just amazing, and pretty much everything about this song makes me want to just groove and dance :ryan:
