A to Z Challenge 2015: Universal Concepts: S is for Sad Songs


Sad songs: we love them, but we hope we never have to live them.
I'm one of the lucky few who have had a romance that has lasted since my teen years up into my middle years and is still going strong. Most early romances lead to heartbreak, and that's the sad truth.
Listening to and singing sad songs can be cathartic. Sing and cry, if that's what you need to do. Write a sad song or poem of your own. Don't be ashamed! Let your feelings show.

HIM Wicked Game 2000 Version

I prefer the 1998 video version. It had a magical quality to it. This has an interesting little story line, but the mystical qualities are traded for a sleazy strip joint setting. Perhaps its a little too close to reality. I've never seen the appeal of strip clubs. 
Some people pointed out that the stripper is not particularly attractive in a conventional sense. She is older and somewhat haggard looking. I believe this is deliberate. The song, while possessing a beautiful melody and haunting lyrics, does not portray a particularly pretty side of love. It's about heartbreak and becoming jaded.

Five UN Friday

Click the Big Five to play along.

I read a poem about unrequited love, and when I saw the Five on Friday prompt, I thought of several songs that have a word beginning with "un" in the title. So today I present Five Un Friday for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!

Gloria Estefan: Don't Let This Moment End

Perry Como: Angela Mia



Angela mia, you are my angel, dear,
The heavens sent you down to me from up above.

Angela mia, you are my guiding star,
A sweet madonna that I honor and I love.

You're like the sunshine in all its splendor
And I surrender each time you smile.

Angela mia, my prayers are answered now
And I am thankful for Angela mia.

One Direction: More than This



Nice young men with nice voices. I wondered if this was going to be a cover of the Bryan Ferry song. I wasn't sure what to think of that, but after listening to this, I think they could have pulled it off.
"Boy bands" tend to get a bad rap. Personally, I don't care if a band is popular or lesser known, or what particular formation it takes. I only care if I enjoy listening to them. These fellows are easy on the ear.

New Discoveries: Terry He

Terry is a young Canadian hip hop and soul musician. You can find out more about him on his You Tube channel and Facebook page.
The featured song is a gentle, romantic number suitable for all listeners. The video tells a story, and the young women in the video are co-stars rather than objects to be ogled. 
I hope that Terry has a long career ahead of him. With all the "shocking" and "outrageous" acts in pop music today, it's refreshing to find a musician whose focus is good songwriting with a positive outlook. Terry He gets two thumbs way up from me!

The Honorary Title: Far More

Natasha Bedingfield: Soul Mate



Incompatible, it don't matter though
'cos someone's bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do
you're not easy to find

Is it possible Mr. Loveable
is already in my life?
right in front of me
or maybe you're in disguise

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I'm on my own
if there's a soulmate for everyone

Here we are again, circles never end
how do I find the perfect fit
there's enough for everyone
but I'm still waiting in line

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I'm on my own
if there's a soulmate for everyone

If there's a soulmate for everyone

Most relationships seem so transitory
They're all good but not the permanent one

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I'm on my own
if there's a soulmate for everyone

Who doesn't long for someone to hold
who knows how to love you without being told
somebody tell me why I'm on my own
if there's a soulmate for everyone
If there's a soulmate for everyone

Thanks For the Ride



The sound quality is lacking, but there's obvious potential. The lyrics are great!

Thanks For The Ride by Jenna

Verse 1: 
There's a place everyone can hide
and there is someone they will always find.
Then there's you,
you're the only one.
And I need you more than I need anyone.
Oh, it's you,
you're like the sun,
That beam of kight coming through

Chorus 1:
And when you're gone there are clouds of gray
and pouring rain
and the sky is black, but then you come back and they go away
it's all okay
there's no more pain, I just wanna say
Please always stay

Verse 2: 
I feel so safe when I'm in your arms
I love your smile, when you use your charm
I get lost 
in your deep eyes
My heart jumps and its beating dies
Oh, I burn
I melt in place
to hear your voice is all it takes

Chorus 2:
And then I feel alive
I'm on cloud nine
when you're next to me
you are all I see 
when you hold me tight
it feels so right
I saw the light, blinded by the sight
but you did not fight

Refrain:
With you, it all made sense
but then you gave me false pretense.
You left me broken here alone.
And in this dark place I lay sighing, crying, slowly dying.
Do you see what you've done?
Well, now I'm ready to say

Final Chorus:

There are clouds of gray
And pouring rain
And the sky is black
You're not coming back, so they're here to stay
I'm not okay
There's so much pain, I just wanna say
Thank You For The Ride
Was worth the try
But now I'm standing here
it had to end I fear
I thought it would last
please don't forget the past
it went so fast
Now I know not to take advantage of what I had.
