George Michael – Monkey Lyrics 13 years ago
When George sings about the monkey on your back....
It means this:

its anything at all that you find to be a constant burden. You have to finish your BA degree for advancement at work, you are married to someone with an addiction.
Or Having to get that college degree is "a monkey on your back". It usually doesn't refer to actual physical burdens.

It can also refer to having a drug addiction.
It can also refer to a sexual addiction, alchol addiction, porn addiction.
ANYTHING
that a person puts as a high priority in their life....which is not healthy for them.

George is singing about his fustration in the situation that never changes:

Oh I hate your friends
But I don't know how and I don't know when
To open your eyes
Yes the monkey's back again
Do you want him now like you did back then?
I tried my best
But your head is such a mess
So I guess that I don't want you anymore

Travis Tritt – Anymore Lyrics 13 years ago
Dedicated to David. Every single weeping word. I cant hear this song, and not tear up. I almost cant breathe. Hes everything to me. NO OTHER man, holds a candle to him. YES him. Mr "you can do better". Damn him. Why did he have to make THAT decision for me? It was and IS him. Superman, could show up...and its going to be HIM. HIM each and every time, over any man.
My mind keeps recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending that I don't love you anymore

Let me make one last appeal to show you how I feel about you...hmmm
Cause there's no one else I swear, holds a candle, anywhere, next to you

Travis Tritt – Foolish Pride Lyrics 13 years ago
I love this song...and have been listening to it, in heavy rotation lately.
Some of these lyrics hit me hard.
Travis Tritt, has always been a favorite of mine. Writes most of all his own music..and a great guitar player.

Rascal Flatts – Fast Cars And Freedom Lyrics 13 years ago
I listened to this song tonight...over 5 times, I love the melody. This song, gets me. I have always loved it...the harmony grabs me, as does the backing vocals. What woman, wouldnt love this song sung to her? What woman doesnt like to hear that shes beautiful with out make up? This song is in the past tense. Hes remembering all the times with her in the past...and how her beauty hasnt changed a bit. Shes a pretty to him now..as she was then. I believe all women are pretty. But, lets be honest..it can be on a slidng scale. In talking outter beauty...Some women, are so darn pretty...with or without makeup..its like they are a piece of art. I believe some of us, can use make up to our benifit. It plays up our features, making them from ok...to outstanding. Inner beauty..well, that is a whole blogg in itself.

Madonna – Don't You Know Lyrics 13 years ago
Hello from Canada
I feel for you. I too...can deeply relate to your position. I have lost the love of my life...and its been 6 months...and im going crazy with out him. Im a fucking mess.

My advice? communicate. At least try to communicate. Softly..no accusing, or anger and pain. Just walk softly. I reccomend sooner, rather than later.
Men are funny...(well, sometimes) they are NOT like females..they normally move on to other women fairly quickly. A replacement..so to speak. they normally, realize, that the replacement woman, doesnt compare to you..but it messes them up fairly bad. Or,..they isolate themselves..and mourn in silence.
thats my suggestion. Communicate.
How email..is nice, or a quick call..to let him know you are "thinking of him,and wondering how he is". Dont text him..I hate texting. Its so cold, and heartless.

Let me know how you make out.
I am not a Eminem fan par say. However, I do like some of his music. I like the current single out "love the way you lie"..because, it relates to my life on certain levels. he is a clean rapper..I can understand him,and appreciate his talent. Yes..that white man has ALOT of talent. Pure respect.

George Michael – To Be Forgiven Lyrics 13 years ago
another song...that I cant believe that has no comments.

Soulful, sad and clear...George nails this whisper of a song. The high notes hit with skill..and feeling in every note. These lyrics are deep.. some are too deep, even I think I have them wrong.

Going down is a refferance to lost faith. Lost everything.Seeing past memory..but will it prove anything?

Feeling overwhelmed...feeling like your drowning. In life, in love, in everything. The inhalation of cold water..I am told, is the worst way to "go". Drowning is painful..you know you are going to die.

Save me from myself. Is self exsplanitory. We as a people, many times more than not...hurt ourselves. Make mistakes..over and over. We are own worst enemy most times, and breaking bad habits and patterns are hard..but not impossible.
If I knew my sin- most of the time, we know we have done wrong. Some times we DO NOT know. We are so out of their head space..not considerate..didnt think twice...and we are hit with it later.
That is why we beg to be forgiven.

Hope, and effort and prayers for a new day, a new start..faith.

Remik – I Got Leid Lyrics 13 years ago
I dont know you...but, your journal flashed across my screen. I agree with what you have to say...exspecially about church. I attend a penecostal church..and Im not saying its the best. Ive yet to find a perfect or "best" church. Ive bounced from church to church to church...and always been dissatisfied. Something bothered me, when they said "that"...or it was all the Hail maries I needed to say, for saying a cuss word, or dissing a fellow person. Or..until recently...all the flags. Why are flags allowed in chuch? Jesus doesnt care about countries..and land marks..he cares about PEOPLE. All people, world wide. My chuch has 4 of them in there. I dont even know what the other 3 are...all I see is the canadian flag..and wonder "do they think, I dont know where I stand?"
Im sure, it goes deeper than this. Im positive of this. Did they use flags in the bible? Did Kings and Queens have them...because, they believed Gods place of worship demanded it?
Why does my preacher yell so loud some Sundays? Does he think, I have not 2 ears? I often tell my daughter, "the lord gave you 2 ears and 1 mouth for a reason....listen MORE, and talk LESS".
If only we did that as a human race. Most people talk on cell phones..have you ever kind of listened in? Most times..its crap. All crap. I hardly use my cell phone. Emergencies only. If people want to talk to me, call me, or write me. But cells...we drive with them..and end up killing others..because the conversation took over. In canada..we have a cell/text ban in effect. If you operate a motor vehicle, or on a bike..you shouldnt be on a cell.
Getting back to the preacher....he yells his theories..and his threats down to me, like If I dont agree..Im thrown into hell. Hell NOW. Like..comeone..who is he to judge my heart? Only the lord knows my heart inside and out. Well, him and David.
I find latley, I dont want to be "shouted" at anymore. I dont want anymore fingers wagging in my face. I want to stand up and say...I already feel like a peice of looser sinner,...you dont have to prove that I am mr. Preacher man. Is he attempting to help me? Perhaps...but why do I still feel so bad? If we are to exspress our sins..and be new and as "white as snow"...why cant I convince my mind of that?
To be forgiven: George Michael. Now there is a set of beautiful lyrics.

Cleanliness is next to Godliness. That is what the bible preaches. I think you are right...we should make our homes, as comfy and clean and pretty as possible. If we live in clutter, and blank walls..and dirt...it pulls down the soul. Ive been there, and done that road. Its depressing. You walk in..and its impossible to know where to start...you cry for help..conqouer a corner..only to once more feel defeated.
I say..rome wasnt made in a day. One step at a time. Plan plan plan...and do it in baby steps.

I hear you about the day to day hum drum of life. Work, home, eat, sleep and repeat. I find peace in routine. I hate breaking routine...only if it makes sence. Vacation is a great break of that day to day.

I hear you TOTALLY about music.
Anyone, who has read my posts on youtube..will see...that I am a lover of all kinds of music. Reggae and Dancehall as a teenager..and young adult. some dont understand...how it hits you and you feel no pain. I am ashamed..I dont really listen to the words. If I did..I would be ashamed as a christian. some of them..are pretty rough. I did own, and listened to Bob for a while. Who doesnt know his stuff? NO I didnt smoke POT...or get high while enjoying his music. I listented to his music..and his lyrics..which for the most part..are about peace/unity/respect and honesty.
I hear any music..and when it hits me..I too feel "no pain".
I am in another "place in my head". It is my drug. It is my healer..along with Christ. Music has the power to heal...ask any mother who had a child in the ICU and she sang to that baby, and its vital signs got better. Any mother who put head phones, on her brain dead child..and watched how the vitals jumped.
music Heals.

God Bless you.

Stevie Wonder – Love's In Need Of Love Today Lyrics 13 years ago
I love this song...by Stevie..but more so, by George Michael. *He covers it so well* The lyrics
Hate's goin' round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it's gone too far

The force of evil plans
To make you its possession
And it will if we let it
Destroy ev-er-y-body

Its that so true? I love this song...and no its not "cheesy". Sometimes, we never really knew...what we had..until its gone. Gone "to far"...and lost. Getting it back..is 50 50..its either gone...or its a fight to get it back...some would say, it should be free. I dont believe in free love. Love is earned, respected..and built. It can be torn down..and rebuilt.

Faith Hill – One Lyrics 13 years ago
I cant believe someone up until me, hasnt commented on such a well written song. It was written by 2 of her backup singers, for her. They did a great job. The guitar riff..is full of pain, and soul..and so well played.
I love this song, and latley, it has been up there on my IPOD playlist. I sing it daily, hum it...and have to say..for a woman who sings alto..my pitch in it is pretty darn good.
I believe this song is, a last cry out in the relationship...before the couple finally seperates into 2..and once more merging into their 1. How life, can take a toll on their relationship..as it always does..and the couple forgets..what they did. Once...shut out the world, and focus on only them..and them alone.Its gritty, stong, and full of feeling..with the overall hope, that one of the 2 people, will decide to walk back to the other...and form 1 once more. Faith sings it perfectly..as she does with all her tracks.

George Michael – Careless Whisper Lyrics 13 years ago
In his book..>george admits writting this song, while on a city bus. He was rather young. He had one girl he was seeing...but starting seeing another. He cheated...and felt guilty about it..and wrote the entire song on that bus ride. However, now...he doesnt really "like" the song. YES, he still sings it at all his concerts..but it doesnt weigh on his heart like it did decades ago. And rightly so.

For me...and it seems for others...this song, is a timeless classic. It never looses value. It never looses meaning for the broken hearted. I cant listen to it..with out tearing up.I lost the love of my LIFE..over foolish mistakes Ive made. Foolish choices. Foolish everything. There gets to be a point,where they have had "enough". Rightfully so.
The lyrics kill me. Just stab me in the heart...
To the heart and mind ignorance is kind
there's no comfort in the truth pain is all you'll find

Sometimes, the truth is better off left unsaid. Ive learned this.

"Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you"


Its self exsplanitory....you dont cheat friends or lovers. The only one who ends up alone...is YOU in the long run.

George Michael – A Different Corner Lyrics 13 years ago
I tend to disagree my friend. In a documentary.."carless wiskers". George stated he wrote this song, for an American man, whom worked (??) or was at a bar. THIS man was openly gay...George was coming around to being open. He was very unsure about his coming out. He called this man, on the phone one night, and sang it to him over the phone...and recorded for him shortly after.

George Michael – A Different Corner Lyrics 13 years ago
I believe ALL things happen for a reason. All good and BAD. we have freewill, we all make choices. Good and BAD. I believe when it comes to people, with over 6 Billion of us here on this earth...that paths are on purpose, some cross, some intermingle, some merge. None of no when they will start or end. That is why,...its best to accept what happens happens. It is what it is...for a reason. A reasoning made higher than our own. Nothing is by accident. Nothing.

George Michael – Tonight (Elton John cover) Lyrics 13 years ago
Tonight, has to be one of my overall favorite songs. Pretty sad..considering, its depressing..but its so real to me. Its hit HOME for me over and over threw out the last 21 years of my life in relationships. I consider only now...calling it quits...Ive had it with love.
GM vocals brings me to tears, you can hear the PAIN in his voice.
I believe its a song, of throwing in the towel. Someone, who continues to go on and on about something..when the other knows full well, their wrongs. BUT they wont let it go. There is NO forgiveness.

"I just want to go to sleep, turn out the light" Most people find refuge in sleep. Its my sactuary...when I can actually get it.

"I'd like to find a compromise
And place it in your hands.

At some point, there is bargaining. Either, they want it to work...and its a move for a stronger, and better future. OR...the love is dead. You can place it in their hands...and they throw it on the ground and say are you crazy?

"Oh, my eyes are blind, my ears can't hear,
Oh, and I cannot find the time"

We overlook what we dont want to see, and focus in what should be ignored. We dont listen to what they want us to hear...but we hear what we want too. Most humans, will occationally say what they dont want to say...so they dont show their underbelly. "cannot find the time" is a statement of being fed up and not wanting to find the time to continue fighting...or bothering to try and find that "rainbow" they are seeking. Its exhausting..and weakens the spirit.


"But you want to carry grudges"."Why not approach with less defiance"
Some people, never believe that you really "hear" them. How many times, does someone want to hear about a mistake they have done...and not be forgiven for it? How many people want to continue in a relationship that is defiant, and hostile?

"Tonight, just let the curtains close in silence, "- I believe the curtain closing is the end of the relationship referance.
