they let you down.

So ever since Pandy recommended me a few songs, that I'm absolutely in love with.. I put a playlist together for myself that consists of songs that I just like singing out loud to myself, that aren't RnB. Because they're a nice change to what I usually listen to. I don't think some of them are happy songs though ahaha, but they're still awesome. :)

Create a playlist at MixPod.com

1. Counting Crows - Accidentally in Love.

Do you remember it? :D It's from Shrek! I actually love all the songs from Shrek, and majority of those kiddy movies haha.

Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after loOoOove.

2. Black Buddafly - Everything

(This is more beaty than the others, doesn't fit the description of the playlist, but oh wells. :D)

Is it the way that you're not trying,
But still you always keep me smiling

The side of you that can be so tough,

Or you innocent kisses

I can't get enough.

3. Teddy Geiger - For U I Will

So, if you didn't know this about me already.. I'm absolutely, superly duperly in love with the guitar! And especially corny little songs like these that have an acoustic tune to it.

Forgive me if I st-stutter

From all of this clutter in my head

But I could fall asleep in those eyes

Like a waterbed

Do I seem familiar? I've crossed you in hallways a thousand time.

No more camouflage, I wanna be exposed

And not be afraid to fall

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

And canon ball into the water

I'm gonna muster every ounce of confidence I have

For you, I will

You always want want you can't have,

But for you, I've got to try

If I could dim the lights in the mall, and create a moon

I would

Shout out your name so it echoes in every room

I would

That's what I'll do, that's what I'll do, That's what I'll do

To get through to you, yeah

4. Taylor Swift - Hey Stephen
I actually love all of Taylor Swift's songs and more so her. She's such a nice change to the mainstream artists these days that are full on RnB. And if you've watched those Satanic Cult videos.. Isn't she the odd one out haha?

Cause I can't help it if you look like an angel

Can't help it if i wanna kiss you in the rain so

Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you

Can't help it if there's no one else

Mm, I can't help myself.

5. Vy Nguyen - It Might Be You

Okay, let's just say that majority of the song in this playlist aren't RnB, but these songs just had to be in there. :) Vy Noogen is my favourite Vietnamese artist by far, that doesn't sing Viet haha.

Your look, your style, your ooh
Made a girl like me wanna get to know you
There was no questioning
Your flow sparked a glow

And I knew you'd be my boo

Ooh baby, it sounds crazy

But you know, I think it might be you

Just maybe, yeah baby

But you know, so whatchu wanna do?

6. Sara Bareilles - Love Song

It's just a really catchy song. :) And parts of the lyrics just really scream out to me. :]

I'm not gonna write you a love song
If your heart is nowhere in it

I don't want it for a minute

Babe, I'll walk the seven seas

When I believe that there's a reason

To write you a love song, today

7. Taylor Swift - Love Story

What isn't there to love? OH OH, and when Poreotix used this song for their dance routine. :D

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while

8. Taylor Swift - Mine

Again, for the same reasons. They're catchy, and her lyrics are always amazing.

And I remember that fight, 2:30AM

Cause everythin' was slippin right out of our hands

I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the goodbye

Cause that's all I've ever known

And you took me by surprise

You said "I'll never leave you alone"

9. Taylor Swift - Our Song

Wow, three T-Swizzle songs in a row. I really do love her. :)

Our song is the is the slam of screen doors

Sneaking out late, tappin on your window

When we're on the phone and you talk real slow

Cause it's late and your mama don't know

Our song is the way you laugh

The first date when I didn't kiss her and I should have

And when I got home

I asked God if he, could play it again.

10. Baby Bash ft. Frankie J - Suga Suga

Apart from good memories with this song.. HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE IT? It's from back in the day, when all the songs they released were good. Better than the crap they release these days. And oh, Frankie J, I love you. ;D

Got me lifted, shifted, higher than the ceiling

And ooh wee, it's the ultimate feeling

Got me lifted, feeling so gifted

Suga how you get so flyy?

11. Joe Brooks - Superman

Another one of those adorable, cutesy guitar songs. :)

Now it ain't no lie, I have to tell you how I feel

But each time that I try, it gets a little more unreal

You say my name, oh God I can't stop shaking

So why do I disappear when you come near?
It makes me feel so small.

Oh if I could read your mind,

Girl would I find, any trace of me at all?

If I could be a superman,

I'd fly you to the stars and back again

But I can only write this song

Cause everytime you touch my hands

You feel my powers, running through your veins

And tell you that I'm that strong

But I'm no superman

I hope you like me as I am

12. Nick Lachey - What's Left Of Me

Does anyone remember him? Lol, that Newly Weds show guy with Jessica Simpson. The lead singer of 98 Degrees.

Falling faster, burning, freezing

Give me something to believe in

Tell me it's not all in my head

Take what's left of this man

Make me whole once again

Cause I want you, and I feel you

Crawling underneath my skin

Like a hunger, like a burning

To find a place I've never been

Now I'm broken, and I'm fading

I'm half the man I thought I would be

But you can have what's left of me

13. James Morrison - Wonderful World

A song I'd never come across or look twice at if I ever saw the title, but thanks to Pandy it's now one of my favourite songs. It really reaches out to me and describes a lot of me I reckon.

I've been down so low, people look at me and they know

They can tell something is wrong, like I don't belong

Well, staring through a window

Standing outside, they're just too happy to care tonight

I wanna be like them, but I'll mess it up again

I tripped on my way in and got kicked outside, everybody saw

And I know it's wonderful world, but I can't feel it right now

Well, I thought I was doing well but I just want to cry now

Well I know that it's a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea

But I can only see it when you're here, here with me

Sometimes I feel so full that it just comes spilling out

It's uncomfortable to see I give it away so easily

But if I had someone I would do anything

And never, never, never let you feel alone

I won't, I won't leave you on your own

But who am I to dream?

Dreams are for fools, they'll let you down

14. Taylor Swift - You Belong With Me

Yet again, Taylor Swift. I don't need to explain anything about this song, because it speaks for itself just like the others. :)

Walking the streets with you and your worn out jeans

I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be

Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself

"Hey, isn't this easy?"

And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town. :)

15. The Fray - You Found Me

There are just so many memories with this song. :)

In the end, everyone ends up alone

Losing her, the only one who's ever known

Who I am, who I'm not and who I wanna be

No one to know

How long you she will be next to me

Lost & insecure, you found me, you found me

Lying on the floor, surrounded, surrounded

Why'd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late.. You found me, you found me

16. James Morrison - You Give Me Something

It's slow and chilled. It's an oldie and a fave'd. :) Thanks Pandy again for the reminder and recommendation. :D

I was meant to tread the waters

Now I've gotten in too deep

For every piece of me that wants you

Another piece backs away

Cause you give me something,

That makes me scared, alright

This could be nothing

But I'm willing to give it a try

Please give me something

Cause one day I might know my heart

And no doubt there'll be more to come. :) Sorry if I bore you with all these lyrics, but hey.. no one told you to read it all. :D
