15 Songs Part 2

1. Tonight - FM Static

This song was recommended by an officemate. Ever since then, I can't stop listening to this awesome song. Acousitic EMO at its best. I suggest this is one song you should listen to.

2. Grace Kelly - Mika

This is a very catchy song. Everytime I hear this song, it makes me want to dance haha. Mika is one hell of a vocal range that reminds me so much of Freddie Mercury. Just listening listening to him just gives me goosebumps.

3. Learning To Breathe - Switchfoot

Switchfoot is one nice band that had created some really nice songs. But this one song really caught my attention. Learning To Breathe is going to be a classic hit for this premier Christian Rock band.

4. Understatement - New Found Glory
5. All Downhill From Here - New Found Glory

I've heard of NFG for the longest time. I've listened to their revival of several songs. I found them so so at best. But when I got the privilege to watch them live a few month ago, I said to myself "Wow, I gotta buy their cd." The only available cd was their Best of.. cd so I grabbed it. I found out that they make kick ass original songs that I grew to love. Two of them are the two songs I listed.

6. Chasing Pavements - Adele

One of two songs from my previous list that appears in the list now. Can't stop loving this songs. Adele is awesome singing this song. Plus the message really apply to me a lot... up to now.

7. Leave Out All The Rest - Linkin Park

It took a long time for this band to make another album and what came out from this
is somewhat a totally different sound from this hard core band. And my favorite song from this album is this song. Kudos for Chester Bennington for not trying to overexert his voice here.

8. One Sweet Love - Sara Bareilles

Miss Bareilles is one cute girl. My type acutally haha. As if I have a chance. But what makes her very special is her voice. Such a soothing voice. And she shows her vocal prowess here in this song. Yeah, I can relate a lot to this song too.

9. Don't Speak - No Doubt

Yeah, yeah. This is an old song. I remember this girl, who was a big crush of my best friend that time, singing this song in our high school fair. But over the years, I can't help listening to this song whenever I'm feeling sad or problematic about love. Oh well...

10. Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good) - Skunk Anansie

Another old song. Skin, the vocal of the band, is one unique singer. She's black, she's bald, she looks freaky but what matters is her awesome singing prowess. I love this band to death but I guess I'm just one of the few who can actually appreciate this band.

11. Salita - Angulo

The only OPM song in the list. Around Feb, I was driving around, waiting for my sister to come out off the mall. I was listening to NU107 at that time and the featured guest was this never heard of band promoting their debut album. I didn't like the songs in the album... except this one. Electronica mixed with rock, I can't believe locals can actually do this kind of stuff. The song's so enchanting and so addicting, you'll tend to listen to it for hours and hours. I did.

12. Are You Gonna Go My Way - Lenny Kravitz

Probably the best hit of Mr. Kravitz, considered by many as one of the coolest rockers around. I especially love this song because of its intro (which is now my ring tone because of this live anime I watched recently, where one of the main character's ring tone was this song) and the drums. Although he has lots of hit, I still think this is the best.

13. Get To Me - Train

Train's vocalist, Pat Monahan, has one of the most amazing male voices around. Here him sing in Drops of Jupiter and When I Look To The Sky and you'll know what I mean. Get To Me is one sweet song that reminds me so much of the sentimental song Get Here by Oletta Adams. Of course, I love Get To Me more haha.

14. Somebody To Love - Queen

Long live Freddie Mercury and his band Queen! No matter what, this song will always be a classic and will always be close to my heart.

15. Signs - Bloc Party

This mega hot euro band has recently produce their latest album, Intimacy. I think this is their carrier hit. It's such a nice, mellow song but you can expect that from a very talented band who had created one unexpected sound to another that became a hit to fans all around the world
