John Mayer
John Mayer's "Waiting on the World to Change" has been my 'theme song' for weeks now. It has this enthralling, feel good rhythm to it and above all, lyrics with an array of critical messages.
These few lines for instance,
Now we see everything is going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Its hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting (waiting)
Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would've never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
When you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information
They can bend it all they want
Waiting on the world to change, John Mayer
I love meaningful songs. This, if definitely one of those insightful tunes.
I suppose this is pretty random but...doesn't he look really good with the new hairstyle? Gives him a kind of boyish charm, don't you think? Another reason why I adore the music video so much. Duuuuuuh
Anyway.."Daughters", would have to be another JM song I'm very much fond of. One heck of a remarkably sweet song.
Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without the warmth from
A woman's good, good heart
On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Daughters, John Mayer
Sooooo, I was wondering, does anyone listen to JM? I've heard a number of his songs, but only those played on radio. I'm rather curious to know if his albums good. Just let me know if you've heard any one of his cds.
P.S: Speaking of cds, I won MUSE's latest album on Yeen Lynn's blog! (thanks again YL!!) Yup, how cooool is that ^_~
And YES, I am gloating, but only because I can.
XD
