I'll buy you nice things that I cannot pronounce, and if you let me love you, babe I will turn you out ♥

Tracks:

1. Let Love Be

2. Know Better
This is the kinda song you sing at the top of your lungs when you're in the shower and you act like you're in a boy band. Tight, right? lol.

3. Fight for Love

4. You

5. Can't Keep on Loving You

6. Don't Be Afraid ★
One of the top tracks! I would marry him if he approached me like this! It's so sweet! So true. So touching haha. He says everything a girl wants to hear. Cutest song ever. I put it on top next to Jamie Foxx's Intuition :)

7. You Say

8. Apart from Me
Another one of those songs you belt out at the top of your lungs.

9. Cold Heart
This song shouldn't have been on this album. This is probably my least favorite song.. it's weird sounding. It's different from all the other songs and not in a good way. Sticks out like a sore thumb definitely. That is my only complaint about this album though.

10. How Do I Know

11. This Step Alone

12. Someday
This song made me cry the first time I heard it. It's about his mom who passed away.
♥ Miss you Simon.

Bonus tracks:

13. Always

14. Good Outweigh The Bad

The bolded songs are my fave songs. They're actually all good though (except 9).
The italicized songs all hit me right here -points to heart-.

He is so soulful; I loooooove it!! :) Apparently, there are other versions of this album with different bonus tracks :( I want it! Why not just put all the damn songs on one album!? I don't even consider him an American Idol. Usually people from American Idol, with the exception of Kelly Clarkson, try to start music careers and end up dying out. Elliott Yamin is definitely an exception! He has an amazing voice, amazing sound, and amazing songs! Soooo underrated! His talent is undeniable! I love the entire album (except 9, but that's minor, haha). I think his words give hope to those who have lost hope in love. What an emotion invoker!! He gives me chills. I looooves it! :)

He made Paula Abdul cry too :) Fast forward to the performance!

my shirt ain't got no stripes, but i can make your pussy whiiiiiistle.. UHHHHH!

i'm currently listening to drake's "little bit" with lykke li, my favorite from the mixtape. that line ^^^ is my favorite line from "best i ever had".



lyrics:

Hands down I'm too proud, for love...
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh

Hands down I'm too proud for love
But with eyes shut it's you I'm thinking of
But how we move from A to B
It can't be up to me
Cause you don't know who I was before you
Basically to see a change in me
I'd be losing so I just ignore you, yeah

But you're on my mind, my mind, my mind, my mind, my mind
But maybe in time, in time, in time, I'll tell you I'm...

A little bit, a little bit, a little bit in love with you
I guess that I'm a little bit, a little bit, a little bit in love with you

I know you told me break their hearts
But it's you I wanna take apart
And I will never ever be the first to say it
But still I...
They know I...ah ah ah

I would do it
Push a button
Pull a trigger
Climb a mountain
Jump off a cliff cause you know baby I love you
Love you a little bit

You would do it
You would say it
You would mean it
Then we could do it
It was you and I and not only I...

Think I'm a little bit, little bit, a little bit in love with you
But only if you're a little bit, little bit, little bit in lalalalalove with me

I hope they never find out what they already know, know, know
As soon as its official we'll have to let it go, go, go
So we don't confirm the fling
Keep avoiding all the questions
You could teach me many things
I'm just scared to learn a lesson

The pressure's on
Both hearts beat like a metronome
Both in sync like a Justin song
Feels so right but it's just so wrong
I wonder where my world 'bout
Where niggas that I know tryna talk my girl out
And her friends say I ain't the one to go for
She just get jealous cause you always get approached more
Oh well, tell her fall back caught up in some more shit tell her call back
Tell her get a man that ain't cheating on her ass wit a girl that I know yeah tell her all that, that
And as for you I think I know you're the one
The closest I've come
I'm probably...

A little bit, a little bit, a little bit in love with you
I guess that I'm a little bit, a little bit, a little bit, a little bit in love with you

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh

today, i went to kenobi with roomie simon! i've been wanting to eat @ kenobi for awhile since i'm always surrounded by their food and their stupid menus :( so tempting. we ate kobe beef! mmmm. he's never had it, so he really liked it. so tender and tasty! fave rolls are u&i roll and seven and a half roll. mmmmMmmm. delish. i got two other special nameless rolls. everyone should goto kenobi because it is delicious! being there made me really wanna drink. simon and i ended up drinking a bit there and i had tons of fun with my fellow hostesses. it makes me sad that i have to leave right when i get cool with everyone :( poo. i will misss theeeem.

sex with a dancer & elliott yamin.

the survivors of the destroyed colony keep zooming by my face.. LET ME EAT IN PEACE DAMNIT!



here's the picture of the sign i promised :)
underneath you can see simon's reply:

"spray their penis with RAID!"

LOL, i tell you. LOL.

right now, i'm researching places to eat tonight with girlfriend mel, girlfriend josh, and ugly boy simon. there are so many places in austin i want to try! i love how there are a bunch of non-...big? chain? whatever.. restaurants here. so much variety! mexican? continent/european? japanese? cajuuuun creole? omg idk. :(

so the other day, i was at taphouse with mel, jos, and sim. we had probably the best group discussion ever. like seriously, if you weren't there, you missed out. our conversation was completely about sex. mel and i were wondering if sex styles vary across cultures. like would doing a black guy be tooootttttaallly different from doing an asian?? then i wondered how about a dancer? since dancers obviously know how to move, is that evident in their bedly adventures? or how about those r&b artists that sing about how they'll "turn you out"? (ahem, elliott yamin) are they really as good as they claim? usher? are you all talk? lol. so many questions unanswered!

speaking of elliott yamin.. i love his song "don't be afraid"



lyrics:

I don't mean to bother you, I see you with your girlfriends
Wanna know if you got any plans for the weekend
Can I pick you up around 7, you let me know when.
That's when she says she's got a man...
I don't see a ring on your fingers so what you sayin'
Why your girls look at you so crazy, c'mon, stop playin'
If it's not too much can I at least know what your name is
Girl why you tellin' me you can't

Don't be afraid to fall in love
Cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everything that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause you never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same,
Babe don't be afraid to love

You say that every man is lookin' for just one thing
You say they love you but they really don't know what it means
How can you think that way when you know nothin' about me
I say you runnin' away
I'll buy you nice things that I cannot pronounce
And if you let me love you, babe I will turn you out
I'll stay committed and I promise I would be around
Your life will not be the same

Don't be afraid to fall in love
Cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everythin' that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause you never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same, babe don't be afraid to love

If you try
It's not a waste of time
You will find
That love is what you need in your life
Just let it go
Nobody's gonna hurt you
Don't say no
Tell me what I need to do
To make you see that you don't have to be that way
Just don't be afraid!

Wooo -
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
To fall in love!

Don't be afraid to fall in love
Cause I don't believe in giving up
Please give me a chance to earn your trust
Cause I know I can be everythin' that you need
Don't be afraid to fall in love
And don't ever say that is just too much
Cause u never know I could be the one
Girl we're not all the same, babe don't be afraid to love

Hooo -
Don't be afraid!

i would so date him if he sang this to me.

my next album review will probably be his. :)

----

kevin just showed me this horrible fugness.

new texas driver's license

wtf is that. it looks like shit.

VICTORY IS OURS! NO MORE MAGGOT LAND!

long yet short day at work. i slept about 2 hours. worked a double but .. a very small amount of hours. kenobi is dying. i need moneys but i can'ts make moneys if you peoples don't gos!

so a couple weeks ago, john made ground beef for tacos. he left it in a pot covered on the stove for awhile. no one noticed because john cooks alot so it just seemed like his stuff everyday. we didn't pay any mind. we did notice the increase in flies though. then one day john came into my room..

"LIZ! THERE ARE MAGGOTS IN MY TACO BEEF!"

ewwwwwwwwwwww.. sooooo he killed the taco colony.. but we still had tons of flies! and they seemed to multiply by the days!!! today was the worst day. i freakkkked out. the kitchen was a hazard zone for me. flies were everywhere, and we weren't really sure where they were coming from now except the trash can.. but we took out the trash more often now. it still couldn't be breeding grounds for flies. john had an assumption that it their new colony could be in the economy packs of onions & garlic in the corner. he sure was right. :(

i made a quick sign on the fridge to motivate us. i'll post a pic of it later because right now, i'm way too lazy to get up from my bed. well anyyyyway, simon was all over that shit! first, he sprayed it down like crazy with raid. then he double bagged his hand and got paper towels to clean it. gross gross grosss.. flies were flying out of it, and i was behind simon with a lysol can to spray them mid air! nooooow, they're goneeeee! there are probably a couple survivors, but we are the victors!!!! we came, we saw, we conquered.

first. jamie foxx is the bomb diggity foreal.

So it's 5am.. I should be sleeping since I have work in the morning buttttt I'm really bored, so I decided to create a blog. I named it after my favorite song on Jamie Foxx's latest album :) "It's just my intuiiiiition.." mmmMmm, love Jamie Foxx! :) Josh and I are going to his Intuition concert in July! How exciting! Words can't even describe how excited I am! I told Peter I'd review music with him so what better album to start off with than Jamie Foxx's!

I'm a huge fan of Jamie Foxx's old live piano stuff. The stuff he performed at his comedy shows. I made a playlist of my faves on youtube. Here's the link :)

JAMIE FOXX PLAYLIST :)

It starts off with the song he sang to Fancy when they got married on the Jamie Foxx Show, and it should autoplay through the rest. Definitely worth listening to. I would pick these songs over his albums anyday.

Okay, onto his album.



Tracks:

1. Just Like Me
This is just a funny, fun song.

2. I Don't Need It
This song is really repetitive.. I don't really like it.. It sounds like Timbaland in the background. I don't really like that either, haha.

3. Number One

4. Digital Girl

5. Blame It
I'm almost sick of this song because of the stupid radio!

6. She Got Her Own
Way better than the original!

7. Intuition Interlude
This is my absolute favorite track! It's just a shame that it's just an interlude and is so short. Short, sweet, and simple. I would love it if a guy sang this to meeee!

8. I Don't Know
This song reminds me of a jungle, haha!

9. Weekend Lover
The girl in the beginning weirds me out.

10. Why

11. Freak'in Me

12. Slow
Really good sex song ;)
The only thing bad about this song is the Dream's annoying "uhh" in the background every 2 seconds. UGH!

13. Rainman

14. Overdose

15. Love Brings Change
One of his piano songs.. sigh :)

You can tell I mostly ignored the more upbeat songs. I enjoy his slow songs more. It just works better. Overall, I love this album. The Dream was one of the producers, and you can definitely hear his influence in some of the songs.

SO EXCITED! :)
