i haven't been writing much about anything lately. been doing more reading that catching up on dramas, but that's going to change soon i think. i'm about one third through my reading list. i plan on doing a write up on those novels soon, but for now, on to my new music.
i recently purchased Maroon 5's newest album It Won't Be Soon Before Long.
it's awesome, like previous album, but the sound is very different. where the first album was much more "rockin" and electrically guitar driven, this one's pretty pop (not that i never classified Maroon 5 as pop). it inda reminds me of like, Prince and MJ pop, with a hint of retro-ness. every song's pretty catchy. here's their first single Makes Me Wonder for those who haven't heard/seen it

lyrically wise, it's awesome just like Song's About Jane. here's my favourite song of the moment from their album:
Nothing Lasts Forever
It is so easy to see dysfuction between you and me
We must free up these tired souls before the sadness kills us both
I tried and tried to let you know I love you but I'm letting go
It may not last but I don't know, I just don't know
If you don't know
Then you can't care
And you show up
But you're not there
But I'm waiting and you want to
Still afraid that I'll desert you
Everyday with every worthless word we get more far away
Distance between us makes it so hard to stay
Nothing lasts forever but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way
A bed that's warm with memories can heal us temporarily
But misbehaving only makes the ditch between us so damn deep
Built a wall around my heart
I'll never let it fall apart
But strangely i wish secretly it would fall down while I'm asleep
If you don't know
Then you can't care
And you show up
But you're not there
But I'm waiting and you want to
Still afraid that I'll desert you
Everyday with every worthless word we get more far away
Distance between us makes it so hard to stay
Nothing lasts forever but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way
Though we have not hit the ground it doesn't mean we're not still falling
Oh I want so bad to pick you up but you're still too reluctant to accept my help
What a shame I hope you find somewhere to place the blame
But until then the fact remains the same
Everyday with every worthless word we get more far away
Distance between us makes it so hard to stay
Nothing lasts forever but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way
Everyday with every worthless word we get more far away
Distance between us makes it so hard to stay
Nothing lasts forever but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way
***i have a feeling that i've heard this song somewhere before.
anyways, their album has lots more good stuff, but that's my fav right now. anyways, i'm tired and still trying to upload pics from my Indianapolis trip. i'm going to go finish doing that. then off to watch POC3!!! can't wait!
