TOP 3 Hits of the week:) June 13, 2012

I'm back, a week delayed from posting my top 3 picks, I got caught up with Mom duties and special projects last week. But none the less, I feel these songs deserve your full attention. A hit in the making from Imagine Dragons called It's Time, this group is  a four-piece indie rock band, based in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, honestly I've never heard of them nor sang along with any of their hits, but I find the beat of It's Time rousing. The intro, is reminiscent of my elementary cheering squad with the grade school music students  playing bandurria(a plectrum chordophone from Spain) on the side.  Let's give this a listen and tell me what you think after. 

by : Imagine Dragons :  It's Time

So this is what you meant?  When you said that you were spent.

And now it’s time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,

Don’t hold back

Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain-check

I don’t ever want to let you down

I don’t ever want to leave this town

‘cause after all

This city never sleeps at night...

It’s time to begin, isn’t it, I get a little bit

Bigger, but then, I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was

now don’t you understand

That I’m never changing who I am

So this is where you fell,

and I am left to sell

the path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell, right to

the top

Don’t look back

Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain-check

I don’t ever want to let you down

I don’t ever want to  leave this town

‘cause after all

This city never sleeps at night...

It’s time to begin, isn’t it, I get a little bit

Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was

now don’t you understand

That I’m never changing who I am

It’s time to begin, isn’t it, I get a little bit

Bigger, but then, I’ll admit, I’m just the same as I was

now don’t you understand

That I’m never changing who I am

 This road never looked so lonely,

This house doesn’t burn down slowly,

To ashes, To ashes

 It’s time to begin, isn’t it, i get a little bit

Bigger, but then, I’ll admit, I’m just the same as i was

now don’t you understand

That I’m never changing who i am

It’s time to begin, isn’t it, i get a little bit

Bigger, but then, I’ll admit, I’m just the same as i was

now don’t you understand,

That I’m never changing who i am

Next on my list is the latest from Will.i.am ft. Eva Simons - This Is Love, the intro sounds a little like Bruno Mars' Grenade oh well that's just my take. We all know who Will i.am is, but who is Eva Simons, I learned that Eva Simons  is a Dutch singer-songwriter. She started her music career at 18 when she auditioned for the Dutch "Popstars the Rivals", eventually joining the girl group Raffish before leaving the group to focus on a solo career. Hmm let's see if this girl shines in this song, This is LOVE in the MIX. 

Will.i.am ft. Eva Simons - This Is Love

and you feel what i feel inside

if you want it like i want it

This next track will keep you guessing. Makes you wonder if you're listening to a 50's? 60's? or 90's hit? But for sure The Walk will leave you breathless from rapping and singing. The man behind it is  Andrew Mayer Cohen, better known by the stage name Mayer Hawthorne, an American singer, producer, songwriter, arranger, audio engineer, DJ, rapper and multi-instrumentalist based in Los Angeles, California, USA.  The stage name "Mayer Hawthorne" is a combination of Cohen's real middle name (Mayer) and the name of the street he grew up on in Michigan (Hawthorne Rd).  Enough said, let's keep that tongue moving with THE WALK, sing with me!! 

Mayer Hawthorne ft. Rizzle Kicks - The Walk

So long you did me wrong)

(So long you did me wrong)

Baby, what you’re doing now (ooh) you’re pissin' me off

Mmm but your hair is so luxurious (ooh) and your lips are so soft, mm-hmm

You know why-eye-eye I-eye-eye, I can’t let you keep treatin' me this way

Oh, you've been jerkin' me around but (ooh) I kept my eyes shut, yeah

Cause you're shaped like an hourglass (ooh) but I think your time’s up, (kept my eyes shut, yeah your times up) mmhmm

Well your heart's like a black blackened piece of coal now

(piece of coal now)

and I doubt that you ever had a soul now

(had a soul now)

And you can walk your cold heart baby right out of my life

(So long you did me wrong)

Yeah you can walk your cold heart baby right out of my life

(So long you did me wrong)

A look on Desiderata and Pledge of Loyalty

I'm reminded of my childhood every time I read Desiderata. My grandmother has a copy of it posted on an antiquated cabinet. As far as I can remember it is right next to the loyalty pledge—that I’ve memorized and practiced by heart.  Although I didn’t get to memorize Desiderata, the poem somewhat helped me fall asleep, I just read it like counting sheep and viola off to dreamland.

 Earlier I remembered the poem Desiderata , I googgled it and read it again.

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,

and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender,

be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly;

and listen to others,

even to the dull and the ignorant;

they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons;

they are vexatious to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others,

you may become vain or bitter,

for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;

it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs,

for the world is full of trickery.

But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;

many persons strive for high ideals,

and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.

Neither be cynical about love,

for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,

it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,

gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.

But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.

Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline,

be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe

no less than the trees and the stars;

you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you,

no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,

whatever you conceive Him to be.

And whatever your labors and aspirations,

in the noisy confusion of life,

keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,

it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann, Desiderata

It is so inspiring, how not to fear. How to remain positive.

That it’s okey to be hopeful. Believe in myself.

That it's important to get along with people. It's okey to love and be loved.

How Silence can be golden. Always strive for inner peace.

Happiness is whithin reach and most importantly to tell ourselves that  I DESERVE.

I deserve the BEST life.

I also want to share The pledge of Loyalty, it keeps me grounded at work.

If you work for a man,

in heaven’s name,

work for him,

speak well of him,

and stand by the institution

that he represents.

Remember,

an ounce of loyalty

is worth a pound of cleverness.

If you must grawl,

condemn and eternally find fault,

why?

resign your position!

And when you are in the outside,

damn to your heart’s contents!

But as long as you are a part of the institution,

do not condemn it.

For if you do,

the first high wind that comes along

will blow you away.

And probably,

you’ll never know why.

FDFP: My Top 3 songs of the week (May 31, 2012)

Here are the latest hits on MIXFM, first heard first played tracks from, J.lo, Kelly Clarkson and Katy Perry.

I'm sending these fresh tracks to all  fearless, fab and fierce women I know.

Gone are the days when women were confined to the four walls of the house. It's amazing how we balance career and family.  I've been doing it for the past 5 years and boy I can't get the hang of it. I feel that every time spent at work is time away from my daughter and time spent at home is not enough since I have tons of commitments to fulfill at work. Although I'm very lucky to have the coolest boss who understands my schedule and trusts me fully. To all working moms, bread winners, single moms hats off and let me help ease the stress with my top 3 songs of the week, feel free to sing along and bring out that diva in you!! First heard first played on MIXFM. 

Wide Awake by Katy Pery

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was in the dark

I was falling hard

With an open heart

I'm wide awake

How did I read the stars so wrong

I'm wide awake

And now it's clear to me

That everything you see

Ain't always what it seems

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I was dreaming for so long

(Pre-Chorus)

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

(Chorus)

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight

(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

Not losing any sleep

Picked up every piece

And landed on my feet

I'm wide awake

Need nothing to complete myself - nooohooo

I'm wide awake

Yeah, I am born again

Outta the lion's den

I don't have to pretend

And it's too late

The story's over now, the end

(Pre-Chorus)

I wish I knew then

What I know now

Wouldn't dive in

Wouldn't bow down

Gravity hurts

You made it so sweet

Till I woke up on

On the concrete

(Chorus)

Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

I'm letting go tonight (yeah, I'm letting go)

I'm Falling from cloud 9

Thunder rumbling

Castles crumbling

I am trying to hold on

God knows that I tried

Seeing the bright side

But I'm not blind anymore...

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

(Chorus)

Yeah, I'm Falling from cloud 9

Crashing from the high

You know I'm letting go tonight

I'm Falling from cloud 9

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

I'm wide awake

Darkside by Kelly CLarkson

There's a place that I know

It's not pretty there and few have ever gone

If I show it to you now

Will it make you run away

Or will you stay

Even if it hurts

Even if I try to push you out

Will you return?

And remind me who I really am

Please remind me who I really am

Everybody's got a dark side

Do you love me?

Can you love mine?

Nobody's a picture perfect

But we're worth it

You know that we're worth it

Will you love me?

Even with my dark side?

Like a diamond

From black dust

It's hard to know

It can become

A few give up

So don't give up on me

Please remind me who I really am

Everybody's got a dark side

Do you love me?

Can you love mine?

Nobody's a picture perfect

But we're worth it

You know that we're worth it

Will you love me?

Even with my dark side?

Don't run away

Don't run away

Just tell me that you will stay

Promise me you will stay

Don't run away

Don't run away

Just promise me you will stay

Promise me you will stay

Will you love me? ohh

Everybody's got a dark side

Do you love me?

Can you love mine?

Nobody's a picture perfect

But we're worth it

You know that we're worth it

Will you love me?

Even with my dark side?
