So I went to the music store the other day. I was looking for the Hot Fuss CD from The Killers. I had seen it there before and it was on sale ($10), yes, that might seem not quite a bargain, but it is. It is the cheapest a decent CD can get here. So I returned the next day and looked for it, but it wasn't there anymore. So I started looking for something else, and I ended up buying Rihanna's latest (Good Girl Gone Bad). Why? Well, I like "Umbrella" (ella ella eh eh eh), and "Shut Up and Drive" is not that bad.

Maybe you think I didn't like it at all. The truth is I loved it! My favorite songs were: "Don't Stop the Music", "Breakin' Dishes", "Push Up On Me" "Hate That I Love You", and "Say It". I never thought I would like it that much. Who would have known?

P.S. I still want to buy Hot Fuss. I love The Killers. And I'll wait for the latest (Sam's Town) to be on sale.

1. Creep by Radiohead

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so very special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here.

2. Meet You There by Simple Plan

I wish I could have told you,
The things I kept inside,
But now I guess it's just too late.
So many things remind me of you,
I hope that you can hear me,
I miss you,
This is goodbye,
One last time..

3. Fix you by Coldplay

When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

4. Que Hago Yo by Ha-Ash

Mis amigos dicen que te olvide
Que antes de ti no era igual
Antes de ti mi vida no tenia sentido
Antes de ti no sabia amar

Translation:

My friends tell me I should forget you,
That before you I wasn't the same,
Before you my life was senseless,
Before you I didn't know how to love.

5. Crush by Angels and Airwaves

Down on love
I'm so tired, I've had enough
I always thought that it would get better
Maimed and numb, i have been too wrong to feel
I've died, for this dream

6. Emotionless by Good Charlotte

It’s been a long hard road without you by my side
Why weren’t you there the nights that we cried
You broke my mother’s heart
You broke your children for life
It’s not ok but we’re alright

7. Ya Nada Queda by Kudai

Puedo oír tu voz, diciendo el adiós
destruyendo toda la ilusión
ya no quiero hablar, ni quiero pensar
ni siquiera puedo imaginar
que al fin te iras de mi lugar

Translation:

I can hear your voice saying the goodbye
destroying all illusion.
I don't want to talk, I don't want to think
I don't even want to imagine,
That you'll finally be leaving my place

8. Teardrops On My Guitar by Taylor Swift

I bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without

9. Wreck of the Day by Anna Nalick

'Cuz love doesn't hurt so I know I'm not falling in love
I'm just falling to pieces
And if this is giving up then I'm giving up

10. Now You Know by Hilary Duff

Feel so light
Craving oxygen
All this truth's left me empty
Will you run
Can you handle it
Cause I need you to tell me
Maybe this is bold
But I’m hoping you’ll stay for the happy ending



I highly recommend all of these songs, they're mostly pop songs, so if you don't like pop music, you probably shouldn't download some of them. Anyway, I don't know if it's just me, but sometimes I feel like I need to hear sad songs, and these are the ones. What are yours? Please, do share. =)

I bought Avril Lavigne's "The Best Damn Thing" CD a while ago. Being an Avril fan for a while and knowing all of her songs, I felt this last CD took her back to her first One ("Let Go"), it didn't feel more mature. With songs like Girlfriend, The Best Damn Thing and Everything Back but You, the only mature songs I could find were Innocence, Keep Holding On and When You're Gone. This would be fine if it was her first CD, but after listening to "Under My Skin" it just wasn't what I was expecting.

Despite this I listened to the whole album a few times, until I liked it and after that, I sang along. I woke up all mornings and put the CD and it really worked for me. That was before I found out she steals songs.

As PerezHilton.com pointed out earlier, a good portion of Avril’s song I Don’t Have To Try off her new album sounds almost identical to the song I'm the Kinda by electro-pop-punk princess Peaches - off her brazilliant 2003 album Fatherfucker.

I watched the video and listened to both songs...they felt like the same. What I hate the most is she claims to be a songwriter, an authentic artist and thinks she's better than most pop singers, but she's just what she seems: a P O S E R. I'm not even upset, I hate her, she's stupid. She's everything I hate, a liar, a fake, a wannabe.

At this point I like better Paris Hilton.

No more Avril for me.

P.S. If you're wondering why on Earth I liked Avril's music, I have one simple answer: I'm a pop lover.
