"Do you know where you are going to? Where are you going to, do you know? Do you get what you're hoping for? When you look behind and there's no open door..." I keep singing this song over and over again. I ask myself these questions without finding any answers. I try to make sense of everything I do here. And I love Diana Ross because of her wonderful voice. 8-|
I can't believe that a song can have such a deep influence on a person's emotions and thoughts.

When I listen to "Nothing's gonna change my love for you," I remember every single face in my 9N class at secondary school. We performed this song in front of the whole school. We had the name of this song on our class T-Shirts.

When I am depressed, I listen to "When you believe" or "I am your angel." I encourage myself by singing "No mountain's too high, for you to climb. .. No river's too wide, for you to make a cross." :)

I had never felt so special when listening to "Graduation" until I came here. Its lyrics can make me cry sometimes. I think about you, my classmates at A1 Ams. I remember every moment we were together. Someday when we see each other again can we still laugh at our jokes like before? :x

Everytime I see airplanes flying above in the sky, I dream of flying home. And I begin to fall in love with the song "There you'll be." My school is next to the airport so I see airplanes a lot. I love looking up to the sky no matter whether it is blue or gray. :D

Everytime I am in blue, I find in music the best way to relax. For each song I love, I often have a reason. And what about you? What are your favorite English songs? I know there does not have to be a reason for loving a song. Just tell me which songs you like. ;)

"Let it be" is such a masterpiece....
I really enjoy listening to classical and country music (especially when I'm not feeling well).
Sorry for not having much to say.
p/s: I was going to post a thread about music here, u stole my idea, Huong, darn it :p
 
“When they push, when they pull. Tell me can you hold on. When they say you should change. Can you lift your head high and stay strong.
Will you give up, give in? Will your heart’s crying out what is wrong? Will you love you for you, at the times of it all?”


Whenver I feel weak, feel like I’m breaking down and just alone in this world, I sing this song. It’s undeniable that at times in life, I feel tired and fed up with all things from people around and I just wanna cry out loud to let the world know that: Don’t touch me, don’t gossip about me, I’m gonna crazy because of you. But then the words of this song starts embracing me.

If u girls (not boys) ever feel down, go for the album Stripped by Christina Aguilera. U would live in the world that no one can buckle the inner emotion and thoughts of yours. U would cry, cry for yourself, cry to stir up in you the fire, absolutely not cry by virtue of the harsh struggle between your view and others’.

And in your mind insecurities seem to take control. We start to look outside ourselves for acceptance and approval. We keep forgetting that the one thing we should know is

Don't be scared To fly alone. Find a path that is your own. Love will open every door.
See in your hands the world is yours. Don't hold back and always know. All the answers you will unfold. What are you waiting for ?
Spread your wings and soar!!!!!


Can you feel that?
 
I can’t believe there exist the kind of people that just look at the sexy appearance of Chris and throw out their evaluations so easily without even a little effort to listen to her words.
Boys shouldn’t do. You boys would turn red and gray right away when you listen to her songs. And if you would not, I wonder if you are really a boy?

“So what am I not supposed to have an opinion? Should I be quiet just because I'm a woman? Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled”


I feel stronger, really stronger since I knew Chris and her maverlous songs. Why do we need to be so nice? Why do we need to avoid controversy? Why do we fear to say what’s rushing in our mind? I couldn’t understand what was blocking me not to do what I want. That’s just merely emotion but it counts so much, to me. I’ve been learning and hopefully one day I can truly get out of myself.

This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
So what do we do girls?
Shout louder!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave them proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down”

For me,
I think that one song has its own meaning, for each case, there are some suitable song for us to sing alone or together. I sing whenever i can.
I LOVE NOT ONLY SINGING BUT ALSO LISTENING
 
I like the song named "beautiful" of Christina Aguilera

Cause’ you are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can’t bring you down
Cause’ you are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can’t bring you down
Oh no, so don't you bring me down today



To BMH: your name is so familiar to me :)
 
YES, ofcause,
If you'd learnt at Chu Văn An secondary school, We would have been classmates.
How are you??
I've not heard anything about you sincce we were apart
 
there is a chorus in one of my favourite song as following:
" you tell me it's not fighting for.
I can't help it there 's nothing I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do . I do it for you"
GGGGGGGrrrrreeeaaaatttttttt........!!!!!!!!
 
There is one voice that can touch my heart of steel. There is one voice that can warm up my soul. To me, she is not just a singer but a goddess. She "raises me up" when I am down. I find myself in her songs. I am immersed in another world, a world of romance, when listening to her songs. No matter whether I am happy or upset, I suddenly become so emotional. The singer I am talking about is Celine Dion.
Each word seems to come straght from her heart. I always want to send her songs to people I love. These words are capable of saying what I am thinking. They help me let other people know how much they mean to me.

I make my journey through eternity
I keep the memory of you and me inside


Is that Celine Dion who is singing? I don't feel that way. It is me, who is singing to myself and to someone I always think of.

Cos I have found a dream that must
Come true,
Every ounce of me must see it through,
But you are my only
I’m sorry I don’t have a role for love to
Play,
Hand over my heart I’ll find my way,
I will make them give to me.
(Immortality)
Isn't this what we say to our friends after graduation, to our crush when we have to leave for a faraway place?

But we don’t say goodbye,
I’ll make them all remember me

It is amazing how Celine's songs represent the "power of love." Words are powerful and touching. Music is appealing. Above all, she is a passionate singer. She arouses the desire for love inside each person when singing this:

There are people around the world -
Different faces different names
But there’s one true emotion that
Reminds me we’re the same...
Let’s talk about love
(Let's talk about love)

Lastly, this is the song I like best:

Don’t go you know you will break my heart
She won’t love you like I will
I’m the one who’ll stay
When she walks away
And you know I’ll be standing here still

I’ll be waiting for you
Here inside my heart
I’m the one who wants to love you more
You will see I can give you
Everything you need
Let me be the one to love you more
(To love you more)

Well... My favorite one is "Diamond in my heart" by Vicky Bell. It's also the ED theme of Chocobo Racing ^_^. Very beatiful melodies by Uematsu-sama, very cute lyrics by Kenji Ito-sama and super sweet voice of Vicky-san ^_^....
You can download it at www.ffhybrid.net or by using soulseek (download at www.download.com). Lyrics can be found at www.animelyrics.com
 
you mean your all-the-time fav song?Well,I've got so many..but right now my fav song are "Roses" by Outkast,and yes,"If I ain't got you" by Alicia Keys of the meaningful ones.
BTW,does any of you know what song did Lindsay Lohan and her band sing in the Blue House in the movie "Freaky Friday"?I'm sooo inlove with that song
 
Actually, Tastes are different
I'm getting tired of listening to the same song again and again ... seeking for smthing new ;) and I think that you will be fed up either :D
 
Tastes are different? Err...you mean that one's taste may change?
So what's the name of the song you're getting tired of listening to?
My fave is Savatage's Believe. Here's the lyrics:

So after all these one night stands
You've ended up with heart in hand
A child alone
On your own
Retreating
Regretful for the things you're not
And all dreams you haven't got
Without a home
A heart of stone
Lies bleeding

And for all the roads you followed
And for all you did not find
And for all the things you had to leave behind

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark
I hear your screams
Don't turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there
I'll never leave
All I ask of you
Believe
Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
For bits of string
Grown-up wings
You needed

But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in
Pay for sins repeated

And for all the years you borrowed
And for all the tears you cried
And for all the fears you had to keep inside

I am the way
I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes
I feel your dreams
And in the dark
I hear your screams
Don't turn away
Just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there
I'll never leave
And all I ask of you is
Believe
 
I ment: I personally cannot listen to the same song again and again. I dont wanna listen to it until I learn its lyrics by heart :)
 
I luv the song in Final Fantasy X... nothing to say tt much about this song but i felt that this song gave to me the soul of it.... tt s why i love this song
PP, yu guys can read the lyric of this song and u will know who gud it is
Melodies of life (FFX)
Alone for a while I've been searching through the dark,
For traces of the love you left inside my lonely heart.
To weave by picking up the pieces that remain. Melodies of Life-Love's lost refrain.

Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why,
We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said good-bye,
And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told?
Let them ring out loud till they unfold.

In my dearest memories, I see you reaching out to me.
Though you're gone, I still believe that you can call out my name.

A voice from the past, joining yours and mine.
Adding the layers of harmony.
And so it goes, on and on.
Melodies of life.
To the sky beyond the flying birds-forever and beyond.

So far and away, see the bird as it flies,
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky,
I've laid my memories, do you remember loving me?
Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings.

In your dearest memories, do you remember loving me?
Was it fate that brought us close and now leaves me behind? A voice from the past, joining yours and mine.
Adding the layers of harmony.
And so it goes, on and on.
Melodies of life.
To the sky beyond the flying birds-forever and beyond.

If should I leave this lonely world behind.
Your voice will still remember our melody.
Now I know we'll carry on.
Melodies of Life.
Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts, as long as we
remember.
 
Another song from 'Tear to fear'. This song was performed by Gary Jules. Most songs of him are about war and civil world. This song is also very meaningful. Read this and try ur best to understand deeply single word of it.
Mad world

Mad world

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going no where
Going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me
And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world
 
Mine is: "White flag" by Dido. Have you listened to this song??


"White Flag"

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
 
yup, I have listened to that song once or twice. However, the image of the white flag isn't something interesting to me.
To Hiền Hòa: I like the lyrics of Believe and I think it is so much better to write "I am the dark inside the night" than "I am the light."
