Prettiest Friend - prettiest song
Yay, another day has passed by and I got my work done on schedule. I'm impressed with my own ability to be responsible, hehe.
Anyway, I'm listening to music while working. I'm that kind of person. And today this song somehow suddenly sounds so pretty to me. So I cleaned up the sound a bit and uploaded the file for those who appreciate simple acoustic, good-feeling, happy-grinning songs with wonderful-yet-not-cheesy lyrics. Here's goes:
"Prettiest Friend" (live) by Jason Mraz (7.5 MB, 320 kbps)
Edit: After a bit of research, I found out that this song is actually on Wordplay EP, the album I don't have. It's only a demo though. Anyway, I found the full demo version on some Chinese site, and it's as pretty as the live version. Here's the link:
"Prettiest Friend" (demo) by Jason Mraz (5.2 MB, 160 kbps)
Lyrics:
This is what I look like today
And I'm trying not to pull out my hair
I'm trying not to show it 'cause I'm far too shy to grow it back there
That's probably why I like wearing hats
There's no denying I'm deferring the facts
Avoiding confrontation
Lacks tact in a situation
Behind every line is a lesson yet to learn
But if you ask me
The feeling that I'm feeling is overwhelming
And oh, it goes to show
I've so much to know
I wrote this for my prettiest friend
Who while trying not to prove that I care
Trying not to make all my moves in one motion and scare her away
Well, she can't see she's making me crazy now
I don't believe she knows she's amazing how
She has me holding my breathe
So I'd never guess that I'm a none such unsuitable, suited for her
But if you ask me
The feeling that I'm feeling is complimentary
And oh, it goes to show
The moral of the story is boy loves girl
And so on the way that it unfolds is yet to be told
I know that I should be brave
Even pretty can be seen by the blind
I know that I cannot wait
Until the day we finally learn how to find each other
Redefining open minds
And if you ask me
The feeling that I'm feeling is overjoyed
And it's golden, it goes to show then
The ending of this song should be left alone
And so on 'cause the way it unfolds is yet to be told
This song makes me happy because love is a beautiful thing, and Mr Mraz painted one of the most beautiful pictures with this one simple little tune. (The song sounds quite familiar to me melody-wise though.)
And yes, this songs makes me think of Cake even though it's a boy-loves-girl song. Just the way the lyrics goes: I know that I cannot wait until the day we finally learn how to find each other, redefining open minds.
And oh,
autumnxnymph, I know I owe you those Mraz icons. I'll get them done as soon as I can. ♥
