She Ain't You - Chris Brown (album F.A.M.E.)

I know this song is actually a cover of Michael Jackson's hit Human Nature, but I still love it. In my opinion, this is one of the best tracks from his fourth album. I wonder if the song is about Chris Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran and Rihanna.

"She Ain't You"

[Verse:]
You make It hard for me to see somebody else
I'm calling her your name
Yea its messed up, cause I'm thinkin 'bout you
It's your fault babe
I never wanted us to break up
No not this way
But you don't understand it girl
When she touches me, I'm wishing that they were your hands
And when I'm with her its only 'bout the sex
With you I had a bad romance
And if I could, just trade her in I would
Cause nobody compares to ya

[Chorus:]
I think I better let her go
Cause I can't leave you alone
Every day that I'm with her, all I want is you
I wanna leave but I'm afraid
That you don't even feel the same
And now I realize that she ain't you
Oh (no she ain't you)
Whoa oh oh (Na na na)
Whoa oh oh (Na na na)
She ain't, no she ain't you

[Verse:]
I've been sleeping out
For quite some nights now
It's not the same in my bed
But if she found out what's going on in my head
It'll be all bad, have me right back
But you don't understand it girl
When she touches me, I'm wishing that they were your hands
And when I'm with her its only 'bout the sex
With you I had a bad romance
And if I could, just trade her in I would
Cause nobody compares to ya

(Chorus x 2)

Chris Brown performed this song live at the BET Awards last year, but I miss the show. It's sad that I still can't find the video of his performance.

Set Fire To The Rain - Adele (album 21)

I've just found out that Adele used to listen to Spice Girls as she was a kid. Me too. It's hard to believe it because Spice Girls' music is totally different from Adele's. Since I found one common between Adele and me, I've decided to pick her new song for this post. The singer is reportedly dating Simon Konecki and she is very happy with her new love.

"Set Fire To The Rain"

I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet

But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.

[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing is better

'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.

[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Where I felt something die
'Cause I knew that there was the last time, the last time!

Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.

Repeat Chorus

This song has already peaked at 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Will it conquer the chart?

You've Got a Friend

It's easy to understand why many artist have covered this song. It has great melody and very meaningful lyrics. It is also selected by many X Factor contestants. In 2009, "You've Got a Friend" was performed collectively by the finalists of Season 2 of Danish X Factor. Kerry McGregor, who broke her back when she was 13, performed the song in a wheelchair in the X Factor audition stages in 2006.

You've Got a Friend

When you're down in troubles
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon i will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
Yes I will
You've got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend

When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them

Repeat Chorus

"You've Got a Friend" won Grammy Awards both for James Taylor who covered the song the same year and Carole King who wrote the song and performed it first.

You Sang to Me - Marc Anthony

I know this song is old, but it is the only Marc Anthony's song which is my favorite. I never like this man. I hate him because he is a promiscuous man. I've heard that the singer is dating Shannon De Lima and he didn't hide it.

You Sang To Me



Oh
I just wanted you to comfort me
When I called you late last night you see
I was falling into love
Yes, I was crashing into love
Oh of all the words you sang to me
About life, the truth and being free, yeah
You sang to me, oh how you sang to me

Girl, I live off how you make me feel
So I question all this being real
'Cause I'm not afraid to love
For the first time I'm not afraid of love

Oh, this day seems made for you and me
And you showed me what life needs to be
Yeah, you sang to me, oh you sang to me

All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me

Just to think you live inside of me
I had no idea how this could be
Now I'm crazy for your love
Can't believe I'm crazy for your love
The words you said you sang to me
And you showed me where I wanna be
Yeah you sang to me, oh you sang to me

All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me

Repeat Chorus

This song is the third single of Marc Anthony's first English language album and he also recorded a Spanish version of it.
