random music musings…

Just some random music thoughts, tidbits, trivia that has been on my mind.  I am bored, someone needs to  hire me asaptually before I lose my mind.

  • I was listening to “I Love You Too Much”  by Stevie Wonder and noticed at the end of the song after the bridge he slyly says, “Huh, maybe 3 much!”  This really made me chuckle and smile.  Little things make me happy.
  • I have become addicted to the song “Take That To The Bank” by Shalamar.  It is extra crackish.  It plays in my head all day.  I blame The PBG for introducing me to the song.  She is a bad influence.

  • I have been listening to Phonte‘s new album “Charity Starts At Home” on repeat for the last 36 hours (in between my Shalamar fixes -_-)  and I am so proud of this album.  His amazing lyricism and huge growth as an artist are evident in this project.  I like or love every single song.  Right now “Everything Is Falling Down” is my go-to jam.  Definitely cop that!
  • I had  a Beyoncé song actually grow on me.  If you know me then you know this is quite a feat!  I actually now enjoy “Love On Top.”  Even though it still sounds like an Al Jarreau song to me, but I digress.

  • You ever been walking in the mall or grocery store and want to randomly yell SHABBA! ? No? Oh. (Word to @greydotmatters)
These are my most listened to songs in the past 7 days… because you care:

Poetic Melodies: Foreign Exchange

Foreign Exchange


Foreign Exchange

yes!

Well, I am feeling all musical and what not this week, so I will do a Poetic Melodies post all week.  Well, it is my blog and stuff. *shrug*  Today’s featured artist is The Foreign Exchange.  Enjoy, get up on it!

Waiting for the daylight
Cause then she’ll keep me
In the safety of her arms
She never leaves me
And when the sun rises, she watches over me

He tells me all his secrets
He thinks nobody knows
We lay together in daylight
I love him so
And when the sun rises, he watches over me






These lines here are so simple, but poetry can be simple… don’t you agree?

Good people, good loving
Good music in my life, it makes me happy
Good people, good loving
Good music in my life, it makes me happy
So happy




When she lays down at night
I wonder what she sees
When she thinks of paradise
Maybe she’ll dream of me
So every night I pray
That when she goes to sleep
and she dreams of a love
Maybe she’ll dream of me





All this time I had it wrong,
But now I truly see
The road you’re choosing.
See the writings on the wall
Tells me I’m losing you
And there’s nothing for me to do
Cause our greatest fears came true.
I finally got a clearer view

I don’t wanna be a soldier anymore!
Because the war never ends
And no one ever wins
I don’t understand why we should fight for love?
Either it ain’t or it is!
It either ain’t or it is!

Are you a Foreign Exchange fan?  If so, what is your favorite Foreign Exchange song?
