recently, i've been reconnected with mtv. the channel that changed a generation has been sporting some hot and rocking ladies lately.  hot enough to possibly convince me to switch teams. just maybe. fantastic girls. spanking videos.  great songs.  hum along as they have been filling up my playlist lately.  

rihanna has always come up with very catchy songs and this one is no exception. she's come a long way from pon de replay.  at work, win and i can't help but go under my umbe-re-llah, el-lah, el-lah, ey, ey, ey...

suprisingly, fergie has a song that doesn't sound like a trailer trash chick. great song about moving on and being strong.  somewhat the slower version of what beyonce was trying to say with irreplaceable. it also helps that peter perrelli is on the video.

i liked cool better because i like breakup songs. but this one is nice. it's actually a great and sexy make out song. she also looks very madonna-ish in most of the frames here.

ahhhh, my kelly clarkson. another song that reminds your ex what a big mistake it was to break up with you. her third album "my december" has received mixed reviews.  a number of critics and blogsites have dissed her as a talentless, fat cow and claims that her latest album is going to tank. it's not as pop as her second album but still has the attitude on her music.  still love her.

i'm been and still a big beyonce fan. whether in wet leather or in jeans.

 

all girls in the videos have one time or another claimed to have been inspired by madonna. and so did the other gays watching this videos.  i am so not switching teams.

i've always wanted to be a rockstar. i maybe me far from being one but i've always been a rebel at heart.  i grew up listening to the classic bands of the nineties and since on i've updated by playlist. it's the songs. it's the videos. it the look. it's the attidude.  it's a lifestyle.  here are 5 reasons why i'd still be a groupie for these bands anytime:

 

Mr. Brightside by The Killers

 

Here It Goes Again by OK Go

 

Here (In Your Arms) by hellogoodbye

 

Thnks fr th Mmrs by Fall Out Boy

 

I Don't Love You by My Chemical Romance

 

nothing beats listening to music from your faverite boys.

 

we all see it coming. the girls minus preggy scary spice during the christening of ginger's little girl (named bluebell madonna). lalalalalalalalalala.....

i've been out of the blog circuit for almost 2 and half weeks.  i've been very busy to a certain point that i was awake and working for about 27 hours.  i so missed my bed that day. although we were so busy at work, it had nothing  special for me to write about.  it was work and run and work and cut and work and print and blah.  anyways, rej and i were at the smoking area after the second day of the client visit marathon ended.  we were talking about ipod playlists and all, and how rem likes to perk up his day by listening to "everybody hurts" -- a good way for him to set his mood for possible disappointments throughout the day.  rej was asking about the opening song from the devil wears prada movie, "suddenly i see" by kt tunstall, which happens to be one of my most played to the point of being overused song when going to work.  not that i see myself as andy sachs preparing for work and hailing a taxi cab but the because it's upbeat and really opens up my semi-awake eyes. he said he'll download it for his ipod as soon as he gets home.  i sent a copy to his cellphone in advance via bluetooth.  then i mentioned "unbelievable" by emf and "it's a beautiful life" by ace of base.  and we started talking and looking back at the music of the 90's. yes, the good, fun, loud and mushy songs of the nineties. dance music was so ...danceable.  it was cool and awesome.  ace of base were the time-warped abba. remember the lyrics "lucky love belongs to teenage heaven.."?  then they vanished to nowhere after "cruel summer".  then there was robyn's "show me love", whigfield's "close to you" and cyrstal water's "100% pure love".  r&b had toni braxton, the honeyz, monica and brandy.  jezz, the 90's were cheesy yet classic.  don't get me wrong, we have really good artists and songs today.  it's just that there's too many to choose from that loyalty has lost its value.  i missed color me badd and take that and the cranberries.  i so remember how we'd sing thru hole's "celebrity skin" or suede's "beautiful ones".  i'm currently 26 and i grew up in the nineties.  i'd always associate highschool smashing pumpkins' "1979", presidents of america's "peaches", and jill souble's "i'm gonna be a supermodel".  as if.

 

it's always nice to look back and hear the music that brings back memories. altogether now: do you have to let it linger, do have to.....do you have to.... do you have to.......

 

yeah, alright, it's a beautiful life...

 

the spice girls would have to be a totally different post. :P

day 3 of no surf control. 3 days before christmans.  it's been a tiring and endless week.  almost everyone seems to be running after time.  i wish i had more time myself.  it's also been a week since last saturday's party and i still can't get this song out of my semi-functioning brain:

There are times I find it hard to sleep at night
We are living through such troubled times
And every child that reaches out for someone to hold
For one moment they become my own
And how can I pretend that I don't know what's going on
When every second with every minute another soul is gone

And I believe that in my life I will see (ooh yeah)
An end to hopelessness or giving up of suffering
And we all stand together this one time
Then no one will get left behind
Stand up for life
Stand up and hear me sing
Stand up for love

I'm inspired and hopeful each and every day
That's how I know that things are gonna change
So how can I pretend that I don't know what's going on
When every second with every minute another soul is gone

And I believe
That in my life I will see
An end to hopelesness of giving up of suffering
And we all stand together this one time
Then no one will get left behind
Stand up for life
Stand up for love

And it all starts right here
And it starts right now
One person stand up there
And the rest will follow
For all the forgotten
For all the unloved
I'm gonna sing this song

 

And I believe that in my life I will see
An end to hopelessness of giving up of suffering
If we all stand together this one time
Then no one will get left behind
Stand up for life
Stand up and sing
Stand up for love
For love

 

Hoooray.  I am actually standing up for something...
