LSS:: You Don't Know Me

Watched groundhog day again and this song has been inside my head since. Ray Charles has a haunting voice. Its scary how much emotions he packs in such a simple melody.
You Don’t Know Me

You give your hand to me
Then you say hello
I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don’t know me
No, you don’t know the one
Who dreams of you at night
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
Oh I’m just a friend
That’s all I’ve ever been
‘Cause you don’t know me
I never knew
The art of making love
Though my heart aches
With love for you
Afraid and shy
I’ve let my chance to go by
The chance that you might
Love me, too
You give your hand to me
And then you say good-bye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
You’ll never never know
The one who loves you so
Well, you don’t know me
You give your hand to me, baby
Then you say good-bye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
No, no, you’ll never ever know
The one who loves you so
Well, you don’t know me

“You Don’t Know Me”
You give your hand to meThen you say helloI can hardly speakMy heart is beating soAnd anyone can tellYou think you know me wellBut you don’t know me
No, you don’t know the oneWho dreams of you at nightAnd longs to kiss your lipsAnd longs to hold you tightOh I’m just a friendThat’s all I’ve ever been’Cause you don’t know me
I never knewThe art of making loveThough my heart achesWith love for youAfraid and shyI’ve let my chance to go byThe chance that you mightLove me, too
You give your hand to meAnd then you say good-byeI watch you walk awayBeside the lucky guyYou’ll never never knowThe one who loves you soWell, you don’t know me
You give your hand to me, babyThen you say good-byeI watch you walk awayBeside the lucky guyNo, no, you’ll never ever knowThe one who loves you soWell, you don’t know me

ELink Audio: Waiting for my real life to begin – Colin Hay


WAITING FOR MY REAL LIFE TO BEGIN
Album : “Going Somewhere”
(written by: Colin Hay / Thom Mooney)
Colin Hay
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I’ll keep checking the horizon
I’ll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing
Come crashing down down down, on me
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart
Let the light shine in
But don’t you understand
I already have a plan
I’m waiting for my real life to begin
When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened
But in my dreams, I slew the dragon
And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane
I’m walking in my old footsteps, once again
And you say, just be here now
Forget about the past, your mask is wearing thin
Let me throw one more dice
I know that I can win
I’m waiting for my real life to begin
Any minute now, my ship is coming in
I’ll keep checking the horizon
And I’ll check my machine, there’s sure to be that call
It’s gonna happen soon, soon, soon
It’s just that times are lean
And you say, be still my love
Open up your heart, let the light shine in
Don’t you understand
I already have a plan
I’m waiting for my real life to begin

Elink Audio :: Al Green – Tired of Being Alone Lyrics

I’m so tired of being alone,
I’m so tired of on-my-own,
won’t you help me, girl,
just as soon as you can.
People say that I’ve found a way,
to make you say,
that you love me.
But baby,
you didn’t go for that,
me, it’s a natural fact,
that I wanna come back,
show me where it’s at, baby.
I’m so tired of being alone,
I’m so tired of on-my-own,
won’t you help me, girl,
just as soon as you can.
I guess you know that I, uh,
love you so,
even though,
you don’t want me no more,
hey, hey, hey, I’m cryin’ tears,
all through the years,
I tell you like it is,
honey, love me if you can.
Ya baby,
tired of being alone here by myself,
I tell ya, I’m tired baby,
I’m tired of being all wrapt up late at night,
in my dreams, nobody but you, baby.
Sometimes I wonder,
if you love me like you say you do,
You see baby, I’ve been thinking about you,
I’ve been wanting to get next to you, baby,
Sometimes I hold my arms and I say,
Mmmmm hmmmm hmmmm,
O baby, needing you has proven to me,
to be my greatest dream.
I’m so tired of being alone,
I’m so tired of on-my-own,
…Sometimes late at night I get to wonderin’ about you baby,
Baby, baby, ya…

Elink Video :: Jon Brion's Here We Go

I so so so so so so so so so so so LOVE this song.
Jon Brion writes songs so well suited to the music in a lyrical sense primarily but the song is really a song.  not a tune with slapped on lyrics, or poetry pretending to be a song.
Makes one wonder how jon brion composes. does he do it while or after watching a film. does the words come first?
I so love this verse. It’s sooo true.  I feel that the reason I liked Punch Drunk Love sooo much is that I see myself in Adam Sandler’s character.

You’ve gotta hope that there’s someone for you
As strange as you are
Who can cope with the things that you do
Without trying too hard

Here We Go
You’ve gotta hope that there’s someone for you
As strange as you are
Who can cope with the things that you do
Without trying too hard
Because you can bend the truth
Until it’s suiting you
These things that you’re wrapping all around you
You never know what they will amount to
And your life is just going on without you
It’s the end of the things you know
Here we go
You’ve gotta know that there’s more to this world
Than what you have seen
Because we all have a limited view
Of what we can be
As we move along with our blinders on
Each one of us feels a little stranded
And you can’t explain or understand it
Each one of us on a different planet
And amidst all the to and fro
Someone can say hello
Here we go
The feeling that someone really gets you
It’s something that no one should object to
It could happen today
So I suggest you skip your habit of laying low
It’s the end of the things you know
Here we go
Because someone can say “Hello,
You old so and so, here we go”

Elink Video :: The Flaming Lips – Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (Letterman)


If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switch
Would you do it?
If you could make everyobody poor just so you could be rich
Would you do it?
If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your back
Would you do it?
If you could take all the love without fiving any back
Would you do it?
And so we cannot know ourselves or what we’d really do…
With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?
If you could make your own money and then give it to everybody
Would you do it?
If you knew all the answers and could give it to the masses
Would you do it?
No no no no no no are you crazy?
It’s a very dangerous thing to do exactly what you want
Because you cannot know yourself or what you’d really do
With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

rePost:Better Politicians :: Better Press Corp :: Better Celebrities :: Better Philippines :Brian Williams: Why Jon Stewart Is Good For News : NPR

We need something like this in the Philippines. I think this should start with trying to organize all recorded interviews we have of candidates. These interviews we tag with their positions and the context. We could do this for everything a politician/journalist/business people/celebrity  etc. says. Then whenever a new video is entered into our database we can automatically query flip-flopping, bad policy advice etc! This can be done by us the citizens of the Philippines. I hope someone does this.
PS: The cynic in me keeps remembering Miriam Defensor-Santiago’s “I lied!!!”
PS1: Listen to the npr audio in the linked post.
Ps2: One of the things I’d miss from my current job is the US IP address. No more full episodes of The Daily Show. Colbert Report and

For decades, young reporters would ask themselves, “What would Walter think?” Nowadays, it’s not the memory of Walter Cronkite or even Edward R. Murrow that motivates some reporters — it’s more often the fear that the stories they put out today might get picked apart by Jon Stewart tomorrow.
Prominent among the wary: NBC Nightly News anchor Brian Williams, who recently explained in a magazine essay that The Daily Show host “has gone from optional to indispensable” in just a few short years.
And Williams tells NPR’s Guy Raz that on occasion, when he feels his broadcast tap-dancing toward the precipice — tossing around a story idea for “what I call Margaret Mead journalism — where we ‘discover Twitter,’ ” for instance, or entertaining some other unfortunate editorial possibility — “I will, and have, said that, ‘You know, maybe we can just give a heads-up to Jon to set aside some time for that tonight.’
“I should quickly add, we have another set of standards we put our stories through,” Williams cautions. “But Jon’s always in the back of my mind. … When you make The Daily Show, it’s usually not for a laurel, it’s for a dart.”
None of this, the NBC anchor says, is to claim that Stewart and his crew have had some wholesale transformative effect on the news media.
But “a lot of the work that Jon and his staff do is serious,” Williams says. “They hold people to account, for errors and sloppiness. … It’s usually delivered with a smile — sometimes not. It’s not who we do it for, it’s not our only check and balance, but it’s healthy — and it helps us that he’s out there.”
