Songs for the day!

It had been an extremely slow day for me today. I've slept almost half the day and aside from my dentist appointment earlier, I only spent the rest of the day multi-tasking: playing songs from my iTunes, posting reviews at CIAO and updating my blog, all while "watching" TV.

One song is currently (as in while I'm typing these first few lines) stuck in my head:

Relapse - Jesse McCartney

Every time I leave, every time I leave

I keep coming back every time I leave!

It's weird cos I'm listening to Twilight Soundtrack and I'm still singing that line of the song.

Oh, I wanna share my favorite Twilight song from Muse. It's called Supermassive Black Hole. It's a catchy song and it's really good.

Oh baby dont you know I suffer? 
Oh baby can you hear me moan? 
You caught me under false pretenses 
How long before you let me go? 

Those are the lines that keep playing in my head aside from Relapse. Actually, I got a couple of songs stuck in my head this week. I keep singing them alternately without no intentions of doing so. Involuntary in other words.

Here are some of 'em:

Love Remains The Same - Gavin Rossdale

I never thought that I had any more to give,

Pushing me so far here I am without you.

Drink, to all that we have lost,

Mistakes we have made,

Everything will change but love remains the same.

If I Were A Boy - Beyonce

Drink beer with the guys and chase after girls,

I'd kick it with who I wanted and I'd never get confronted for it

Cos they'd stick up for me.

If I were a boy, I think I could understand

How it feels to love a girl 

I'd swear I'd be a better man.

SuperHuman - Chris Brown feat. Keri Hilson

I have been crying and crying for weeks

How'd I survive when I could barely speak,

barely eat, on my knees.

But that's the moment that you came to me,

I don't know what your love has done to me.

Think I'm invincible I see, through the me I used to be.

Whatever You Like - T.I.

Stacks on deck

Patron on ice

And we can pop bottles all night

Baby you can have whatever you like

I said you can have whatever you like.

Bleeding Love - Leona Lewis / Jesse McCartney / Boyce Avenue

Closed off from love I didn't need the pain,

Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain.

Time starts to pass before you know it you're frozen.

But something happened with the very first time with you,

My heart melted to the ground found something true,

And everyone's looking 'round thinking I'm going crazy.

What do you think? Bleeding Love has a lot of versions and I think I have all of it except for the Tagalog version. It's just so irritating to listen to.

Anyway, hope you "enjoyed" my songs for the day. Or rather for the week. I've been singing these songs for days now. They just keep popping out of my head and before I know it, I'm starting to sing them all like I'm doing a medley cos I don't exactly sing the entire song, just these lines that I've posted here.

I'll try to change tracks next week and will let you know! :)

Still can't get enough of RiRi and CB.

As promised, I got some photos of Chris Brown and Rihanna on stage. Chris Brown performed first and he started almost on time. :)

Forever. Still can't get enough of his dancing! Still can't get enough of him!

Unfaithful. I remember this cos of that elevated part. My friend Cathy and I were singing our hearts out with Rihanna singing this song. Hmmm. I wonder why. We're not Unfaithful naman. Haha!

The last song: Cinderella (Under the Umbrella). Sooooo good! And that kiss CB gave RiRi on her left shoulder was so sweet and sexy! Awwww!

I want a Chris Brown of my own!

These photos wouldn't be possible for me to post without the "consent" of my friend, Katrina Farinas-Favis. Told you I'd give you credit for this. :) Thanks sooo much!

Rihanna and Chris Brown After Concert Party.

Alchemy's entrance. If you look closely you'd see Janna's reflection and mine. She was the one who asked me to take a picture of this. She was like: "Babe oh! Picturan mo. Haha!" and I said: "Haha! Fine. Okay babe. Malakas ka sakin eh." We didn't pay the entrance fee thanks to Garv! Yey!

Excuse our outfits also cos this whole after concert party thing was just a last minute decision and because we were avoiding traffic and we want to be the first group in Alchemy to arrive, we headed straight from the concert in Taguig to Alchemy in Ortigas still wearing our concert outfits suited for the open field atmosphere.

After an hour of waiting, they finally arrived. This is my only lucky shot of the entire night. I have yet to wait for friends to upload and see if they have any decent pictures of CB and RiRi. That's Chris Brown by the way. Excuse my blurry shot of him. Everybody's just going crazy last night. Or should I say, early morning cos it's 2:30 AM when they entered.

Babes: Janna and Mara. Mine's the messed up stamp. It just says: Alchemy V.I.P.

Hello bottles of San Mig Light, cans of Sprite, glass of cherries and the hidden bottle of Absolut Kurant Vodka.

The girls: from left-right: Janna, Trina, Irene, Mara and Cathy.

I think this was around 4 AM or so and I just downed my 3rd glass of Kurant which I would say for the nth time, I won't drink Kurant ever again! That traitor.

Anyway, after an hour we went home already cos Janna, Cathy, and Poon (not in the picture) still has work at 9 AM. Hello, it's Monday.

Good Evening, Maniluhhh!! Rihanna and Chris Brown Concert.

Uh-huh, uh-huh! We were there last night at the Bonifacio Open Field in Taguig for the Rihanna and Chris Brown Back-to-Back Concert. 

In general, the concert was fun. Chris Brown and Rihanna both rocked the stage! I can now say based from first hand experience that they are good performers. They have had a lot of energy and their moves are just WOW. 

There was just two things that were not enjoyable last night. The first one was the super long line to get inside that led to an "almost" stampede and the concert started while we were still in line, I think we got in around after 2 songs. The second thing, most of us enjoyed Chris Brown better than Rihanna. Rihanna was good. Really really good but she sang several songs that most of the people just watched in silence and the songs wasn't even mellow unlike CB's songs that he performed! I don't know but maybe it's because CB drained our energy with all his upbeat songs plus that "almost" stampede incident. 

Overall it was a great night. Both were good performers. I love Rihanna ever since her Pon de Replay days until today's Rehab. Her songs are good and her voice is amazing, I can now add GREAT performer to that list. Chris Brown on the other hand, although I know almost all his songs and I enjoy listening to them I was not really a huge fan of his BUT after seeing him perform, I'm making a u-turn! Haha! He IS good.

I just feel bad I didn't get the chance to take a photo of them. Boohoo! I was hoping to get a picture taken during the after party but still with no luck.

Still, I had fun! I hope they come back here soon and then I'd buy front row seats (or stands since it's the open field). :)
