themed week // The Cranberries, Tomorrow

The Cranberries are an Irish alternative rock band created in 1989, having an hiatus between 2003 and 2009.

Composed by Noel and Mike Hogan, Fergal Lawler and Dolores O'Riordan.

Known for songs like Zombie, Linger or Hollywood, they've released five albums - Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? (1993), No Need To Argue (1994), To The Faithful Departed (1996), Bury The Hatchet (1999), Wake Up And Smell The Coffee (2001) and are going to release in a few days, February 27, Roses.

This sixth album was initially scheduled to be released in 2004, but due to the band's decision to have separate ways, it is going to be released this year. The album is about relationships, love and different ways of dealing with it. The album was produced by Stephen Street who previously worked with Blur and Kaiser Chiefs.

According to what O'Riordan said in an interview to Billboard, Tomorrow "it's about the way we sometimes hyper over-escalate things in our minds, overthink about things...when sometimes spontaneity and just jumping in is better. Tomorrow you might not have that moment back again. So it's really about moving on and also about kid of looking at the younger generation and how they worry about all kinds of silly things. They don't think they're silly, but when you're older you know better."

"Tomorrow could be too late,

I wish I could change that date.

Tomorrow could be too late,

If only you had some faith."

themed week // Michael Bublé, Everything

Michael Bublé better known as singer with hits like Hollywood, Everything, Home, Haven't Met You Yet and Save The Last Dance For Me.
But Bublé started his career by acting on three movies Duets (2000), Totally Blonde (2001) and The Snow Walker (2003) and appearences on tv series like The X Files and Death Game.

Although his acting career, Michael Bublé got known after the release of his self-titled album released in 2003, with the single Sway.
After this, he have already released 3 albums - It's Time (2005), Call Me Irresponsible (2007), Crazy Love (2009) and a new album Christmas which is released in October 24th.

Everything was the first single taken from Call Me Irresponsible, and Michael Bublé wrote for his ex-girlfriend Emily Blunt and according to him: "I wrote that song about the great happiness of real love, but at the same time I was making a statement about the world. We’re living in really crazy times, and I wanted to say that no matter what’s happening, this person in my life is what really makes it worthwhile."

"And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

It's you, it's you, you make me sing

You're every line, you're every word, you're everything"

Aerosmith - I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing

This is one of those songs that can make me cry even if I'm not sad. And honestly I don't know why, but I don't care either because this is a beautiful song.
I don't want to miss a thing is a single by the american rock band Aerosmith. It's mostly known because it appeared on one of the Hollywood biggest success, Armageddon (one of my fave movies of all time), where Steven Tyler's daughter plays as the daughter of Bruce Willis. It is to date the highest charting song in the UK, it peaked number four in November 1998.
The music video contains scenes from the movie and the band playing.
I think the lyrics says everything. When we care so much about someone we don't ever want to miss a thing. Even just a breath, a smile, a word. It all seems of too much importance to be missed.

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

A.

P.S: Watch the damn movie! :)

Best of 2010, 4th Place

Michael Bublé, Hollywood



For the 4th place of my Best Of i picked up a song by Michael Bublé that i saw loved and totally loved him. Unfortunately this song wasn’t on the playlist of the gig, even so this song is so hardcore, so honest, so beautiful at the same time. It gives me strength to keep fighting, to fight against what is wrong and bad and gives me the power to be happy and not worry about who i am. It also reflects the society of nowadays, how jealous they are, how non-friendly and arrogant they are with everyone.
So for you, directly from Canada, Hollywood

“So don’t go higher for desire
Put it in your head
Baby, Hollywood is dead
You can find it in yourself
So don’t fly higher for your fire
Put it in your head
Baby, Hollywood is dead
You can find it in yourself


Keep it in your head
Hollywood is dead”

I hope you enjoy and understand this song, it’s pretty honest and very actual.
Love,
P
