'90s songs - angelina???

my brothers have been bugging me endlessly about a certain 'angelina' song. for the life of me i cannot remember who the artist was. the only thing i recall was that it was somehow sung in french.

this so-called 'angelina' song came out in the early nineties, about 1992-ish, along with the song 'extasi-extano (a.k.a. asi me gusta mi)' by chimo bayo.

if anyone could at least give me the name of the artist who sang 'angelina,' please drop me a line. thanks!

NOT friends

a few posts back, i shared the lyrics of the song "can we still be friends."

on hindsight, i think the song should have been dan hill's "sometimes when we touch." the line that goes "i'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie" just cuts to the bone. as in...



the thing is, i DON'T wanna hold him 'til i die...

i guess one shouldn't readily say things like "can we still be friends." i have since accepted that deep inside, i can never be friends with him... and i do not want to be friends with him. thus the parting words "wag na lang. i'm not interested anymore."

my galpal asked me what i felt when i let him go. was i sad or did i feel like a thorn was plucked out of my heart?

it's the latter... i'm actually relieved.

cheesiness required

here are two versions of my all time favorite love song... err... "love song"

this is 311's cover...


and here is the original release by the cure (album: disintegration)...



hmm... weird video

i'm partial to 311's cover, it's just so... smooth. i also like the cure's original, though.

music + lyrics = all out cheese

according to wikipedia, "Robert Smith originally wrote this song as a gift to his longtime girlfriend, Mary, shortly before their marriage."

awwwwww!!!!

(thanks d!)

BOB MARLEY lyrics - "Waiting In Vain"


www.OldieLyrics.com



1, 2, 3:

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow t'rough.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine:
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
'Cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.

Like I said:
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more:
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
But your love is my relief:
Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting - while I'm waiting for my turn,
See!

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, oh!
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't
wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No, no-no, I, no, I (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
It's your love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.
It's Jah love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna - I don't wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you're running from.
