I only just realized the coincidence when I was uploading photos...
I first watched Secondhand Serenade at Greenbelt 3...no pictures as usual since I don't have a camera...
Secondhand Serenade is an American acoustic rock solo project fronted by vocalist and guitarist John Vesely. The solo project began in Illinois, USA, in 2004. Vesely has released two studio albums to date under the name Secondhand Serenade, Awake in 2005 and A Twist in My Story in 2008. The debut album used multitrack recording to create the sound of a band using technology, while the second album took a different path, using a proper band and an orchestra to establish a more accomplished sound.
and then I headed off to Roxas Blvd...Bagaberde! my first time there!... to watch Sitti's Summer Serenade!... nice!
This guy is so handsome! I'd just let that out first haha...before I go ahead and rave about SECONDHAND SERENADE'S performace last Saturday at Greenbelt 3...he played all his songs with his acoustic guitar...and unfortunately...as expected I jardly know all his songs! nyahaha I don't have his album yet! though that is such an oversight...maybe someone will get me his first album - which has my fave song of his... FALL FOR YOU! and the other songs that are nice too...which ironically am just beginning to listen to... my officemate is more of a fan of his than I am...
So here I thought of just posting 3 of his familiar songs...and see how sentimentally romantic he is! goodness!!!
Waiting for your call, I'm sick, call I'm angry call I'm desperate for your voice Listening to the song we used to sing In the car, do you remember Butterfly, Early Summer It's playing on repeat, Just like when we would meet Like when we would meet
Cause I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight
Stripped and polished, I am new, I am fresh I am feeling so ambitious, you and me, flesh to flesh Cause every breath that you will take when you are sitting next to me will bring life into my deepest hopes, What's your fantasy? (What's your, what's your, what's your...)
Cause I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight
And I'm tired of being all alone, and this solitary moment makes me want to come back home x4 (I know everything you wanted isn't anything you have)
Cause I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight
Cause I was born to tell you I love you and I am torn to do what I have to, to make you mine Stay with me tonight (I know everything you wanted isn't anything you have)
just want to jot down a few or the more recent snappy and witty retorts that I've heard or seen or whatever...
and then I thought this could be in answer to the snappy retort of...Edward when he was asked how he stopped a van...something to do with an adrenaline rush...and he ended up saying..."You can Google it!"...
if you can't understand what I'm talking about...wait and watch the movie Twilight and watch for the Geenhouse scene haha
*****
let's backtrack and let me quote here what my former student told me...when I asked him...
Stressed ka?
Miss, wala akong stress...
Ano?!? Pakiulit!
hahaha
*****
I met up with my college barkada last week for our "usual" kitakits sa Starbucks...and we were talking about this "former friend" of ours who has been giving us the cold shoulder...for the longest time...it seems so petty come to think of it...
she goes..
Ano...? Di ka pa rin pinapansin ni...(insert former friend's name here)???
Oo noh...ang tagal na nun...ganun pa rin sya!
Weirdo rin yun kaibigan nyo na yun...abnormal at kalahati!
(huwat?!? hahaha)
*****
And this same person...when our talk veered into the usual "whats up with your love life" or the nonexistence of it...
when asked wala ka pa rin ba boyfriend ulit? or something to that effect... i forgot the exact words...she goes...
Hay naku ha...nagorder na ko...kaso out of stock!
wahahaha!
*****
Now I don't know why I'm including this song...this is one of my LSS nowadays...and maybe because the band's name is unique..or maybe a line in the song reminded me of...
what Jamie - the character in Nicholas Sparks' A Walk to Remember said something like.."don't fall in love with me"...
coz the song has this line... "don't make me change my mind" or something to that effect haha
Fall For You
by Secondhand Serenade
The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting Could it be that we have been this way before I know you don't think that I am trying I know you're wearing thin down to the core
But hold your breath Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you Over again Don't make me change my mind Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true Because a girl like you is impossible to find You're impossible to find
This is not what I intended I always swore to you I'd never fall apart You always thought that I was stronger I may have failed But I have loved you from the start Ohhhh
But hold your breath Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you Over again Don't make me change my mind Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true Because a girl like you is impossible to find It's impossible
So breathe in so deep Breathe me in I'm yours to keep And hold onto your words Cause talk is cheap And remember me tonight When you're asleep
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you Over again Don't make me change my mind Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true Because a girl like you is impossible to find Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you Over again Don't make me change my mind Or I won't live to see another day I swear it's true Because a girl like you is impossible to find You're impossible to find
