Haunting memories are out (thank God) and now I’m on to my childhood days…
I admit I was a Disney baby. I think I am still. I mean who isn’t? From the very first Disney flick my mom took me which was The Little Mermaid to Aladdin to Beauty And The Beast to The Lion King and so on, I’ve watched them all. And mind you, I used to know all those Disney songs. Every phrase, verse and chorus, I memorized them all. And its a nice retreat from all the grown-up troubles and just relive the good old days when I used to pretend I am half fish or I have a pet monkey named Abu or I’m riding a magic carpet or a Lion. Childhood indeed. I smile every time I remember all the wild imaginations I had back then.
Anyway, to take my mind off of boredom, I’ll post some Disney videos I like and I still sing every time I’m in the shower. Well at least once in a while.
How about you? What was your favorite Disney song?
Adam Levine and the rest of the gang have a new single out and it’s called “Payphone” featuring Wiz Khalifa. I listened to the song and I loved it! Well, that’s probably because I am a Maroon5 fan.
I’m at a payphone trying to call home All of my change i’ve spent on you Where Have the times gone baby It’s all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
Yeah, I, I know it’s hard to remember The people we used to be It’s even harder to picture That you’re not here next to me You say it’s too late to make it But is it too late to try? And then that time that you wasted All of our bridges burnt down
I’ve wasted my nights You turned out the lights Now I’m paralyzed Still stuck in that time when we called it love But even the sun sets in paradise
I’m at a payphone trying to call home All of my change I’ve spent on you Where have the times gone baby It’s all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
If happy ever after did exist I would still be holding you like this All those fairytales are full of it One more stupid love song I’ll be sick.
You turned your back on tomorrow Cause you forgot yesterday I gave you my love to borrow But just gave it away You can’t expect me to be fine I don’t expect you to care I know I said it before But all of our bridges burnt down
I’ve wasted my nights You turned out the lights Now I’m paralyzed Still stuck in that time when we called it love But even the sun sets in paradise
I’m at a payphone trying to call home All of my change i’ve spent on you Where have the times gone baby It’s all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
If happy ever after did exist I would still be holding you like this And all those fairytales are full of it One more stupid love song i’ll be sick
Now I’m at a payphone…
[Wiz Khalifa] Man f-k that sh-t I’ll be out spending all this money while you sitting round Wondering why it wasn’t you who came up from nothing Made it from the botton Now when you see me i’m stunting And all of my cause a way to push up a button Telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it Switched the number to my phone So you never can call it Don’t need my name, or my show You can tell it i’m ballin’ Shish, what a shame coulda got picked Had a really good game but you missed your last shot So you talk about who you see at the top Or what you could’ve saw But sad to say it’s over for it Phantom roll out valet open doors Where’s the car way, got what you was looking for Now ask me who they want So you can go take that little piece of sh-t with you
I’m at a payphone trying to call home All of my change i’ve spent on you Where are the times gone baby It’s all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
If happy ever after did exist I would still be holding you like this And all these fairytales are full of shit One more fuckin’ love song i’ll be sick
Simple yet a powerful statement. True. In a land where “3rd sex” is frowned upon or bullied or killed, its not easy to come out and say “this is who I am and these are the things I want.” At least not from my perspective.
I was scouring YouTube again and I chanced upon this video of Neil Patrick Harris doing the opening number for the 2011 Tony Awards. Not only is he openly gay, he is also a great and influential artist. (I salute you sir!)
I love music, I love acting and I love broadway.
Neil Patrick Harris’ 2011 opening number for Tony Awards
I woke up this morning feeling kind of blue I stumbled out of bed and dragged my feet across the room Right outside my front door was a rose and a note that said ‘Somebody Loves You’
Out on the street it starts to pour And before I get soaking wet a total stranger runs to give me the jacket off his back I turn around to thank him but he waves me with a smile And I can hardly believe my eyes He puts on a halo and starts to fly
Take a look at the ordinary Don’t need to look for Paradise You could be next to an angel in disguise
I met a good friend for lunch and we had a delicious meal But I forgot to bring my wallet I felt like an imbecile But she was sweet, she gave me a treat and Bought me a chicken sandwich To take home for tea
Out on the street with nothing to eat A man and his shopping cart go Travelling to places Collecting social graces I give him my sandwich and we chatter for a while I see a rainbow wash over his eyes He gives me his halo and I start to fly
Take a look at the ordinary Don’t need to look for Paradise You could be next to an angel in disguise
Everyday can be legendary Every minute, an endless surprise You could be the next angel in disguise
Just wanna share this song to y’all. A friend made me listen to this song way back and I fell in love with it. *I’m not really sure if I’ve blogged about this before*
I’m not the easiest person to love I’m often the one who lets things go unresolved
Yet you choose to be on the side of me on the side of me Yet you choose to be on the side of me on the side of me
I’m not too proud of some things I’ve done in my life The skeletons in my closet Are too big for me to hide
Yet you choose to be on the side of me on the side of me Blessed Charity You’re on the side of me on the side of me
‘Cause everyone needs a friend to hold when it’s cold outside and there’s no place to go Everyone needs a friend to hold all alone I cried there was no place to go I remember when nobody cared but you
I’m not the easiest person to love But you, you’ve opened your heart to show me what I’m worth
‘Cause you choose to be on the side of me on the side of me What a mystery You’re on the side of me on the side of me
‘Cause everyone needs a friend to hold when it’s cold outside and there’s no place to go Everyone needs a friend to hold all alone I cried there was no place to go
I remember when nobody cared I remember when nobody cared Nobody cared But you
Yeah you choose to be on the side of me on the side of me
