Unlikely Cover

Paramore's lead vocalist Hayley Williams singing Lady Gaga's Bad Romance.

I think she can pull it off with an official cover, maybe a rock version.

GT: Sexy Back

This weeks Girls Talk theme is a picture of a sexiest part of the body. I must admit that I wish I have a bigger tush because I find that particular part of the body sexy. Unfortunately, the nicer tush went to two of my older sisters so I was left with little tush. Boohoo! And because we girls should appreciate our bodies, I'd like to showcase to you, what I think is the sexiest part of my small frame.

With my friend Kharen, notice my backless shirt?

Girls Talk: Flesh

My first try in joining Girls Talk. Today's topic is about a picture of your showing some flesh.I find this month's topic appropriate, with International Women's Month and all. Plus summer season started early, it means it's also the season to show off some skin. And I love doing that whenever were on the beach thus the photo I have below.

This was taken in 2006 by my college friend and Una's godfather in one of our outings in Laiya. God, I missed that place. This is also the first time I wore a bikini top, always been a tankini wearer. Notice the visible tan line of the tank top? We went to White Rock, Subic for my sister's farewell party. They migrated to Canada that year.

put your records on

An uplifting song to start the week for Music Monday.

Corinne Bailey Rae's Put your records on

I love how laid back this video is. It makes you feel like life is good and easy.

Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don't need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.

Maybe sometimes, we've got it wrong, but it's alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don't you hesitate.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the roadside,
(just relax, just relax)
Don't you let those other boys fool you,
Got to love that afro hair do.

Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don't you think it's strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

'Twas more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

Oh, you're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow

wandering star

This is one of my favorite songs by a band called Portishead. It's a gloomy song but I love how the music and lyrics explain reflects my current state. I love listening to this whenever I am feeling at a lost.

Please could you stay awhile to share my grief

For its such a lovely day

To have to always feel this way

And the time that I will suffer less

Is when I never have to wake

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever

... Those who have seen the needles eye, now tread

Like a husk, from which all that was, now has fled

And the masks, that the monsters wear

To feed, upon their prey

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever

(always) doubled up inside

Take awhile to shed my grief

(always) doubled up inside

Taunted, cruel.... ...

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved

The blackness of darkness forever
