Hear Me

"About You" - Mary J. Blige

This played today on the way to work. I haven't heard it in a while and it decided to play for me at the exact moment I needed to hear it.

Lyrics:

Mary J Will I am in the place with the love
Yeah, it feels, it feels good
Mary J, Will.I.Am
Tell 'em how ya feel

Boy you got me goin' crazy
I don't know what to say anymore
Cuz still I wanna be your lady
You know that I would never walk out that door
I'm not giving up on us but
Things can get a little hard in this life
But you know, you know I love you

You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted
In a man, can't you see
What you're doing to me
I'm sayin yes and sayin no
Because I dont want you to know


How I really feel, how I really feel

About you (you know how I feel)
About you (you know how I feel)
About you (how I feel, you know how I feel)

So glad to have you in my life
(It's a new life for me, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

You, you're the one for me
I don't wanna be free
Boy, you have rescued me
but sometimes I don't want to be bothered
Baby, don't think I am shady
Just adjusting to ya
I don't wanna confuse ya or even misuse ya
But I love ya, I love ya, yeah, yeah

You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted
In a man, can't you see
What you're doing to me
I'm sayin yes and sayin no
Because I don't want you to know
How I really feel, how I really feel

About you (you know how I feel)
About you (you know how I feel)
About you (how I feel, you know how I feel)

So glad to have you in my life
(It's a new life for me, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Ooh, so glad to have you in my life
So glad to have someone to hold me
So very happy with my life
I'm so glad, so glad, so glad

Baby, you a soul mama
Love's what I'mma bring to you
Quick don't pause like a comma
Won't stall on ya when it's time to put it on ya
Don't call on another chick I'm callin' on ya
Won't trip on ya, I don't bring the drama
I won't dip out when it's trauma
I'm holdin on mama, hold up, wait a minute
We've been through the downs ups, but stayed in it
So glad that I've got you, that I got you
So glad that I got you, I got you

You're everything I ever wanted
Everything I've never wanted
In a man, can't you see
What you're doing to me
I'm sayin yes and sayin no
Because I don't want you to know
How I really feel, how I really feel

About you (you know how I feel)
About you (you know how I feel)
About you (how I feel, you know how I feel)

There it is

Broken

"Paradise" - Coldplay It took a while for this song to affect me, but I guess a windy drive home through an obstacle course of devastating proportions and the sudden panic of having a "State of Emergency" warning flash within my quiet hometown can change things. A lot. I didn't sleep a single minute last night. Although this isn't anything new, it's new to me to want to sleep and not get it. It was unbelievably frightening to be alone in my room with the nite-lite busted and the wind at full speed...even worse when half the roof over my head flew to the ground with a thunderous thud bringing the rest of the sleepless city to its feet. We've seen the Santa Ana winds, but never at this magnitude. It moved cars and busted windows. It rattled fences and ripped gates apart. It knocked over trashcans and picked up patio furniture like it weighed nothing. In the morning when the dust settled just enough for the hazy sun to bring some light to the mayhem, w

Soul Mates

"Once Upon A Dream" - Sleeping Beauty How funny it is that even after all these years and how far we've come with animation, this classic Disney cartoon still grabs me. Yes, I know it's silly, but it's a silly I grew up with and can't help but fall for... I know the story is so far fetched: a 16 year old girl (that looks more like a 21 year old) with gold of sunshine in her hair and lips that would shame the red, red rose sings high up in the mountain tops and suddenly attracts the man of her dreams; her soul mate! (who by golly is the prince that she has been betrothed to since she was a baby!). Unbelievable. So it's all fairytale crap, but so what? I'm not into it because of the romance! To tell you the truth, I don't even like Aurora all that much, the spoiled lil' brat. I mean, she's beautiful in EVERY way, finds out she's a princess and is going to marry into royalty on top of her royalty! I can't really sympathize... Seriousl

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.
