A Walk Through Life

Here's one song that can help us handle whatever negative and unpleasant things we are going through at the moment and see them in a different perspective. It's called  "Blessings" from the Laura Story album. I wish I can get hold of a copy of her album before the year ends. Are you one of those who think that you've been bombarded with problems after another? Health reasons? Financial difficulties? Family problems? Loss of a loved one? Whatever problems we have at hand, it's time that we think of them as blessings and offer them to God.

After learning about the success of John Mayer Live in Manila concert last October 1st despite the heavy rain, I thought it must have been a really really good concert. When I was still single, I had the chance to watch concerts of bands and even solo performers playing this type of music genre. It's nice to watch concerts once in a while especially when you don't have any guilt feelings about spending for your tickets to the show because you know you deserve it. John Mayer is really known for his great acoustic music and for talking a lot in his performances. :-) To give you an idea of what it would have been like to be in one of his concerts, you can check out this video I found from youtube. It's called Love Song For No One and I dedicate this song to the DGs (read my previous post about what the acronym stands for) and to all people who are probably tired of being alone . LOL. Love Song For No One Lyrics Staying home alone on a Friday Flat on the floor...

I have a new favorite song that I would like to share with all the music monday participants and to my few mashkan readers as well. Sometimes I do feel like the easiest job in the world that won't feel like a job at all would be being a DJ on the radio. Oh, that's if you like all kinds of music and you love to chit chat with your listeners. Agree or disagree? Hmmm, just a thought but I am actually not considering it because I don't have a lovely speaking voice, anyway. LOL. Anyway, going back to the song - this one is entitled "Opposites Attract", sang by one of my favorite OPM singers, Juris Fernandez. She was once the lead vocalist to the MYMP band. Now, she's a signed member of the ASAP Sessionistas . I dedicate this song to my hubby.  I really can't wait for October , huh! Check out the song - nice melody, nice lyrics, nice voice. What a great package! Opposites Attract (Lyrics) You're a morning kind of person Everything is spic and s...

Happy Monday, everyone. We've been singing along with this song that's been playing on the radio for weeks now. So, I'd like to share this one as my entry for Music Monday. It's called Where Are You Now by Honor Society band. Ever heard of it? Even though not all the lyrics to the song fit me but somehow I can relate a little (or probably more) - especially when it comes to memories of high school and friends, best friends and some secret stuff. :-) Okay. This video already has one million plus views. So I wouldn't be surprised if you've already watched it. LOL. Just wanted to share. So, for those who have not yet seen it or heard the song, go ahead and indulge. :-) So, what do you remember when you listen to this song?

Here's the late Luther Vandross ' version of A House Is Not A Home . I love this song - this was exactly the song I had in mind when I wrote about our house.. ER.. home sweet home . For me, whether it's from Dionne Warwick or Luther Vandross, this song is timeless! I must say though that I love how Luther Vandross sang it with so much emotion. In fact, someone described it as "flawless" even though this was sang live. Check out the music video and you'll know why. Come join Music Monday and share your songs with us. Rules are simple.

I feel like singing this song today and for the rest of the week! This is a song by Alicia Keys. It's called " If I Ain't Got You ". This is like a personal song. Somehow, this song has a double meaning to me. It can be a song for my husband and it can also be dedicated to the Lord. How's that? I once listened to my Aunt Sarah doing a cover of this song and replaced the word "baby" with "Lord" and it then turned out to be a really beautiful song that she offered to the Lord.

For this week's Music Monday, my entry is the song called Rainbow . This is a song from my favorite Filipino band, Southborder. I love this song - the voices behind it, the melody and the lyrics! You have to listen to this, guys... P.S. I especially dedicate this song to my very good friend. She knows who she is. :-) I don't know what she's going through right now (because she's not telling) but I hope she's okay. Hugs to you, my friend.

Music Monday, here I come! Let me share to you one of the songs that has a huge impact on me. I am referring to this song by NewSong entitled " Defining Moment ". This is a song from their album called Sheltering Tree. This album was on my wish list two or three years ago, I love all of their songs in it. I've been looking everywhere for this album here but I couldn't find it at my favorite record bars. What's your defining moment ? Let us all aim to reach this ultimate defining moment in our lives. NewSong - Defining Moment Found at abmp3 search engine Defining Moment Lyrics There comes a time in every heart a time of real decision When we reach the point of choosing how we will live our lives All our hopes, all our dreams will rise up from that moment The moment we surrender and choose to follow Christ He's been waiting all our lives to hear us say I am yours, Lord, take my hand and lead the way When you believe He's all you nee...

I've been looking for the perfect song for my Music Monday entry. I know a lot of great songs. In fact, everyday I've always experienced a "last song syndrome". However, I don't like what I've been hearing lately - they are always music from politicians' ads on television (didpdip is enjoying them, though). I don't feel too mushy to feature my favorite love songs as well. Thankfully, I bumped into this really beautiful song by Gary Valenciano. It's called Take Me Out Of The Dark. This has been a favorite song of mine ever since this song became a hit. It's been a while since I last heard this song, so when I heard it and read the lyrics again, I can't help my tears from falling. So, I'm sharing this to you now. Hope you'll find a deeper meaning to the song like I always do... Happy listening! Come join Music Monday and share your songs with us. Rules are simple.

It's Monday and it's Music Monday time once again. One of my favorite songs is " How Do You Keep The Music Playing? " by James Ingram and Patti Austin. This is a beautiful and meaningful song especially for the couples out there.      Get this widget |      Track details  |         eSnips Social DNA    We also have a home video performance of this song where I sang only at the first part but I don't want to embed it here, only because I was there during the first part. But if you want to view how I messed up the song, you can view it here . :-) How Do You Keep The Music Playing? Lyrics How do you keep the music playing? How do you make it last? How do you keep the song from fading too fast? How do you lose yourself to someone and never lose your way? How do you not run out of new things to say? And since you know we're always changing How can it be the same? And tell me ho...

For my music Monday entry, here's a wonderful song and video of Love Is In The Air , a version sang in one of our videoke sessions with Geir, my sister-in-law's Norwegian husband. If you've been to my previous posts, you must have watched him perform an Elvis song. Love Is In The Air is a 70's song which was made popular by John Paul Young. Love Is In The Air Lyrics Love is in the air Everywhere I look around Love is in the air Every sight and every sound And I don't know if I'm being foolish Don't know if I'm being wise But it's something that I must believe in And it's there when I look in your eyes Love is in the air In the whisper of the trees Love is in the air In the thunder of the sea And I don't know if I'm just dreaming Don't know if I feel sane But it's something that I must believe in And it's there when you call out my name (Chorus) Love is in the air Love is in the air Oh oh oh Oh oh...

I found this beautiful song I'd like to share with you guys. It's called " Two Words " by Leah Salonga. Trivia: she sang this song at her own wedding. Check out the song, I'm sure you'll love to hear it over and over. :-) Oh, I'm in love again..

This is my first time to join Music Monday. I thought it would be nice to greet the week with a beautiful song, Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now , originally from Starship but I think the band did the MYMP version in this video (from our October 2007 wedding). This was played and sang during our wedding dance. Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now lyrics Looking in your eyes I see a paradise This world that I found is too good to be true Standing here beside you, want so much to give you This love in my heart that I'm feeling for you Let 'em say we're crazy, don't care 'bout that Put your hand in my hand baby, don't ever look back Let the world around us just fall apart Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart And we can build this dream together, standing strong forever Nothing's gonna stop us now And if this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us now Woh woh ...
