"Time... 

is a candle's flame 

and what burns are 

the minutes we live."

~ from 'Candle - A Short Film'

~ suppose to be from a "book" titled 'Candle' which is 

actually just made up in the Short Film of the same title, 

which means that the book does not really exists.

.

. YouTube Video 'Candle - A Short Film' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgRP_rfS9MA Published on 12 Feb 2014 "Candle" is Singapore radio's first short film directed by Divian Nair, conceptualised, casted and written by both Divian and Dee Kosh. Both the Double D's (as they are known on radio) are acting in it along with Sandra Riley Tang of the Sam Willows and Lavinia Tan of Gold 90.5 fm The short film titled "Candle" is completely different from the usually humorous style of The Double D's. For this video, they have aimed at the emotions and the fragility of life and love. The film revolves around a quote from a book that was made up for the film. "Candle" is the title of the book and the quote that encompasses the message of the film is this - "Time is a candle's flame and what burns are the minutes we live". "It's a journey we hope our viewers will take with us and hopefully by the end of it everyone will learn to appreciate what they have with the people they love the most." - The Double D's. .

14:01 to 17:10 ~ excerpt of song using only Verses 1 and 5

[V1]

Well I heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and it pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do ya (you)?

Well it goes like this

The fourth (4th), the fifth (5th)

The minor fall, and the major lift,

The baffled king composing, Halleluia!

[Chorus]

Halleluia! Halleluia! Halleluia! 

Hallelu.........u-u-u.........u-ia!

[V5]

Well maybe there's a God above

But all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who'd out drew ya (you).

And it's not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen in the light

It's a cold and it's a broken, Halleluia!

Halleluia! Halleluia! Halleluia! 

Hallelu.........

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

she tied you to her kitchen chair

And she broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the, Halleluia! [Chorus]

Well baby I've been here before

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor

Song, Lyrics & Breakfast ~ HONEY BUNCHes of Oats

This is a current breakfast craze of Dots, 

'Honey Bunches of Oats ~ by Post'

Reminds me of a song... (scroll down to below this picture)

Reminds me of a song... 

originally sung by the Four Tops...  

if you see the Video of them singing, 

you'll know why they're called the 'Four Tops'... 

they're always spinning a round while singing the song.

However... I like the 2012 Modern Version sung by Jessica Mauboy... 

I think Dots may know who she is, they're the same age.

Here's an excerpt from wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Mauboy)

Jessica Hilda Mauboy (born 4 August 1989) 

is an Australian R&B and pop singer, songwriter and actress. 

In 2006, Mauboy was the runner-up on the fourth season of Australian Idol, 

she had auditioned for the talent show in Alice Springs, Northern Territory to pursue a recording career. 

Mauboy subsequently signed a contract with Sony Music Australia.

Lyrics:

I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)

~ originally sung by the Four Tops

Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch 

You know that I love you 

I can't help myself 

I love you and nobody else 

In and out my life(in and out my life) 

You come and you go (you come and you go) 

Leaving just your picture behind.... (ooh) 

And I've kissed it a thousand times (ooh) 

When you snap your finger, or wink you eye, 

I come a-running to you 

I'm tied to your apron strings, 

And there's nothing that I can do 

I can't help myself, 

No, I can't help myself, 

'Cause, Sugar Pie Honey Bunch 

I'm weaker than a man should be 

I can't help myself 

I'm a fool in love 'ya see 

Wanna tell you I don't love you, 

Tell you that we're through 

And I try.... 

But ev'ry time I see your face, 

I get all choked up inside 

When I call your name, 

Girl, it starts to flame 

Burning in my heart, 

Tearing it all apart.. 

No matter how I try 

My love I cannot hide.... 

'Cause Sugar Pie Honey Bunch 

You know that I'm waiting for you (waiting for you) 

I can't help myself 

I love you and nobody else 

Sugar Pie Honey Bunch 

I'd do anything you ask me to (ask me to) 

I can't help myself 

I want you and nobody else 

Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch 

You know that I love you (I dooo) 

I can't help myself... 

No... I can't help myself

Rolling In The Deep (by Adele) ~ Meaning of Song (Lyrics)

===.===.===.===.===.===.===.===.===.===.===.

'Rolling In The Deep' ~ Meaning of Title & Song:

For the title, {...she used another line in the chorus that is curious to American listeners, adding some intrigue to the song. So what does the phrase "Rolling In The Deep" mean? She described it to Rolling Stone as an, "adaptation of a kind of slang, slur phrase in the UK called 'roll deep,' which means to have someone, always have someone that has your back, and you're never on your own, if you're ever in trouble you've always got someone who's going to come and help you fight it or whatever like that. And that's how I felt in the relationship that the record's about, especially 'Rolling in the Deep.' That's how I felt, you know, I thought that's what I was always going to have, and um, it ended up not being the case."} ~ http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=21312

{According to Nadine Cheung from AOL Radio Blog the song is "sung from the perspective of a scorned lover, who is finally able to see the light, but despite regretful sentiments, reconciliation is not an option here."} ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_in_the_Deep

Roll Deep in Urban Dictionary

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=roll%20deep

1. roll deep

To go anywhere with a large group of people. 

People will mean mug and want to fight you, but will not due simply to the size of your entourage 

Safety in numbers

We roll deep up in the club

2. roll deep

Rolling Deep ~ With all the dangers and precarious situations the modern hax0r can find himself in on the streets, the ninties have brought forth the need to "roll deep." The whole rationale behind the concept of rolling deep lies in the age old adage. "Strength in numbers," or something along those lines, although rolling deep by no means requires a large group or backup posse. The term rolling deep stems directly from the world of hardcore hip hop and gangsta rap, and is often used in conjunction with phrases like, "Ya best proteck ya neck," "bakda****up," or other equally street-smart phrases that manage to incorporate both defensiveness and threat. In any case, the implications are easily identifiable and the prmoise of quick retaliation looms in the foreground; rolling deep is a means of letting people know that you are not to be ****ed with. The perils of being caught slippin' in this day and age are just too great. I know the value of rolling deep and have integrated it into my daily routine, rolling deep for such mundane tasks as getting a late- night snack from the fridge, buying a new sweater, or making a important phone call home. Hopefully some of the following tips, examples, and observations will acquaint you with the ways of rolling deep as ****, 'cause it's too dangerous to be caught shallow. 

3. roll deep

Going somewhere with a large amount of people.

we rollin 20 deep in da club.

Lyrics

Rolling In The Deep ~ Adele ~ Lyrics

Songwriters: Paul Richard Epworth;Adele Laurie Blue Adkins

[V1]

There's a fire starting in my heart

Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark

Finally I can see you crystal clear

Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare

[V2]

See how I'll leave, with every piece of you

Don't underestimate the things that I will do

There's a fire starting in my heart

Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark

[Pre-Chorus]

The scars of your love remind me of us

They keep me thinking that we almost had it all

The scars of your love, they leave me breathless

I can't help feeling

[Chorus 1]

We could have had it all

Rolling in the deep

You had my heart inside your hand

And you played it to the beat

[V3]

Baby, I have no story to be told

But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn

Think of me in the depths of your despair

Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared

[Pre-Chorus] [Chorus]

[Chorus 2]

Could have had it all

Rolling in the deep

You had my heart inside your hand

But you played it with a beating

[V4 ~ Almost Acappella with Percussions]

Throw your soul through every open door

Count your blessings to find what you look for

Turn my sorrow into treasured gold

You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

Isle of Capri ~ by Bing Crosby ~ Lyrics

[V1]

`twas on the Isle of Capri that I found her

Beneath the shade of an old walnut tree

Oh, I can still see the flow'rs bloomin' round her

Where we met on the Isle of Capri

[V2]

She was as sweet as a rose at the dawning

But somehow fate hadn't meant her for me

And though I sailed with the tide in the morning

Still my heart's on the Isle of Capri

[Bridge]

Summertime was nearly over

Blue Italian sky above

I said "Lady, I'm a rover,

Can you spare a sweet word of love?"

[V3]

She whispered softly "It's best not to linger"

And then as  I  kissed her hand I could see

She wore a plain golden ring on her finger

'twas goodbye on the Isle of Capri

[Instrumental] [Bridge] [V3]

Mark Dinning ~ Teen Angel & The World is Getting Smaller

Here're 2 songs I remember listening to in my teens. They're songs from my father's time which I enjoyed listening to. I didn't have much money (either that or was too stingy to spend my savings) to buy current pop music so listen to my dad's music. These are the slow sentimental rock n roll numbers.

Teen Angel ~ Mark Dinning ~ Lyrics

(Jean Surrey & Red Surrey)

[Intro]

Teen angel, teen angel, teen angel, ooh, ooh

[V1]

That fateful night the car was stalled

upon the railroad track

I pulled you out and we were safe

but you went running back

[Chorus]

Teen angel, can you hear me

Teen angel, can you see me

Are you somewhere up above

And I am still your own true love

[V2]

What was it you were looking for

that took your life that night

They said they found my high school ring

clutched in your fingers tight [Chorus]

[V3]

Just sweet sixteen, and now you're gone

They've taken you away.

I'll never kiss your lips again

They buried you today [Chorus]

Teen angel, teen angel, answer me, please

Dum Deedle I Dee Dum Deedle Ay

Where can you hide away?

Dum Deedle I Dee Dum Deedle Ay

Where can you hide away?

[Bridge 1]

The world is getting smaller

The population's grown

Where oh where can sweethearts go

When they wanna be alone

[V1]

Out to the park we went walking

To a quiet spot by the bay

We found some kids playing cowboy there

And they wouldn't go away

So no romance that day [Chorus]

[V2]

We thought that we had the answer

A drive-in movie we planned

But the only place we could find to park

Was next to the Pizza stand

And man that's a busy stand [Chorus]

[Bridge 2]

The world is getting smaller

And let me ask you this

Where oh where can sweethearts go

When they want to steal a kiss

[V3]

To lovers lane we went driving

We parked and what did I find

My own kid sister was in the car

That was parked right next to mine

And love withered on the vine [Chorus]

[Ending]

Where can you hide away?

Where can you hide away?

Where can you hide... (fade out)

Dance with My Father ~ by Luther Vandross & Richard Marx

First, I'd like to say that Luther Vandross sang very well in the original and I love the the melody and lyrics of the song. However... the only thing that I don't like about the song... is the percussion... I wish I could turn it off... because it just didn't blend with the everything else.

Here's what Wikipedia had to say about this song...

"Dance with My Father is the thirteenth studio album by American R&B-soul singer-songwriter Luther Vandross. It was released in the United States on June 10, 2003 by J Records, his final album to be released before his death on July 1, 2005. The album, especially its title track, was dedicated to Vandross' late father. The album earned Vandross two American Music Awards in 2003—Favorite Soul/R&B Male Artist and Favorite Soul/R&B Album—and four Grammy Awards in 2004—Song of the Year and Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for "Dance with My Father" (also nominated for Best R&B Song), Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for "The Closer I Get to You" (with Beyoncé), and Best R&B Album. Chart performance and sales... Dance with My Father debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart, moving some 442,000 units in its opening week alone, and also topped the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, after debuting at #42 the previous week. It was Vandross' only album to top the U.S. albums chart. It was also his eighth album to reach #1 on the Top R&B Albums chart; this is also his first #1 R&B album in twelve years since the release of Power of Love. Dance With My Father also stands as the biggest selling studio album of Luther's entire career with over 2.9 million sales in the United States alone. The title track single was a hit on Pop, R&B, and Adult Contemporary radio. It received the 2004 Grammy Award for Song of the Year, which Luther shared with his father."

I've included that recording at the bottom of this blog so hopefully you'll be able to understand what I'm talking about.

But before that recording... please listen to these covers and enjoy the song for what, I feel, it should sound like.

Lyrics:

Dance with My Father

Original Singer: Luther Vandross

Co-Writers / Composers: Luther Vandross & Richard Marx

Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me
And then
Spin me around 'till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure
I was loved

If I could get another chance
Another walk
Another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
How I'd love love love
To dance with my father again

When I and my mother
Would disagree
To get my way I would run
From her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
yeah yeah
Then finally make me do
Just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he
Would be gone from me

If I could steal one final glance
When final step
One final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
Cause I'd love love love to
Dance with my father again

Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how mama would cry for him
I'd pray for her even more than me
I'd pray for her even more than me

I know I'm praying for much to much
But could you send her
The only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
But Dear Lord
She's dying to dance with my father again

Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream

My notes: Please note the ugly percussion in the background music. Surely... this could have been a much better recording. I did hear this song on radio where percussion was not audible due to loss of fidelity over the air-waves and it actually sounded better.

[Chorus]

Well, that'll be the day, when you say goodbye

Yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry

You say you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie

'Cause that'll be the day when I die

Well, you give me all your lovin' and your turtle dovin'

All your hugs and kisses and your money too

Well, you know you love me baby

Until you tell me, maybe

That some day, well I'll be through

[Chorus]

[Instrumental Interlude]

Well, when Cupid shot his dart

He shot it at your heart

So if we ever part and I leave you

You sit and hold me and you tell me boldly

That some day, well I'll be blue

Well, that'll be the day, hoo-hoo

That'll be the day, hoo-hoo

Cecilia ~ by Paul Simon ~ interpretation of the Lyrics

I've always liked this song but found the lyrics difficult to sing. 

I have always wanted to change the lyrics so that I can sing it. 

Now I don't have to because the song actually means more than meets the eye.
BUT... I think I will still amend it so that it sounds a little "cleaner".

Making music in the afternoon with St Cecilia
Up in my bedroom (about love)
I got up to wash my face {being distracted}
When I come back to bed {back to focus}
Someone's taken my place {someone else's tune; plagiarism}

Come on home

The single did not chart in the UK, despite being released as the follow-up to Simon and Garfunkel's number one hit "Bridge Over Troubled Water".

The songwriter suggests that the "Cecilia" of the title refers to St. Cecilia, patron saint of music ^[1] in the Catholic tradition, and thus the song might refer to the frustration of fleeting inspiration in songwriting, the vagaries of musical fame or in a wider sense the absurdity of pop culture. The song is generally interpreted as a lament over a capricious lover who causes both anguish and jubilation to the singer. St. Cecilia is mentioned in another Paul Simon song, "The Coast" (from his 1990 album The Rhythm of the Saints): "A family of musicians took shelter for the night in the little harbor church of St. Cecilia."

Paul Simon, of Simon and Garfunkel fame, wrote the song "The Coast" which references Saint Cecilia when a family of musicians taking refuge in the Church of St. Cecilia.^[8] There is also evidence that another of Paul Simon's songs was also in her honor, as "Cecilia" can be interpreted to refer to her and the frustration of song writing.^[9]

The song's recording is also quite funny. The Song's foundation was a percussion track in the house Paul was renting on Blue Jay Way in LA. Paul and Art slapped their thights, Eddie Simon thumped a piano bench and a friend strummed a guitar with its strings slackened to the point of atonailty. Roy Halee did the rest.

Cecilia
~ by Paul Simon
~ Original Lyrics

[Chorus]
Celia, you're breaking my heart
You're shaking my confidence daily
Oh, Cecilia, I'm down on my knees
I'm begging you please to come home 

[repeat Chorus]

Come on home

[Verse 1]
Making love in the afternoon with Cecilia
Up in my bedroom (making love)
I got up to wash my face
When I come back to bed
Someone's taken my place

[repeat Chorus] 
Come on home

[Music Interlude]
Po-Po-Po-Po-Po... pick it up...

[Ending]
Jubilation,
She loves me again,
I fall on the floor and I laughing, [Ending]

[Final Ending]
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh...

Saint Cecilia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Cecilia

Patroness of musicians

Cecilia's musical fame rests on a passing notice in her legend that she was beheaded and at the same time praised God, singing to Him, as she lay dying a martyr's death. She is frequently depicted playing an organ or other musical instrument. Musical societies and conservatories frequently have been named for St. Cecilia. 

Her feast day became an occasion for musical concerts and festivals that occasioned well-known poems by John Dryden and Alexander Pope^[7], and music by Henry Purcell (Ode to St. Cecilia), George Frideric Handel (Ode for St. Cecilia's Day, Alexander's Feast) and Benjamin Britten, who was born on her feast day, (Hymn to St. Cecilia), as well as Herbert Howells with text from a poem by W. H. Auden. Gerald Finzi's "For Saint Cecilia", Op. 30, was set to verses written by Edmund Blunden.

Use in contemporary music

The New York post-hardcore band Polar Bear Club refer to St. Cecilia in their song "Song To Persona". David Byrne and Brian Eno's song, The River, on the album, Everything that Happens Will Happen Today, also refers to St. Cecilia's Day. 

Paul Simon, of Simon and Garfunkel fame, wrote the song "The Coast" which references her when a family of musicians taking refuge in the Church of St. Cecilia.^[8] There is also evidence that another of Paul Simon's songs was also in her honor, as "Cecilia" can be interpreted to refer to her and the frustration of song writing.^[9] 

English lyrics were written for a Swedish popular song "Min soldat" and released as "The Shrine of Saint Cecilia". It was recorded by a number of American close harmony and doo-wop groups during the 20th century like Willie Winfield and the Harp-Tones. Others were the Bon Aires and the Andrew sisters. The song was first released in the U.S. in 1941. Stalk-Forrest group (an early incarnation of Blue Oyster Cult) recorded a song called "St. Cecilia" on their album that was scrapped by Elektra records. The album finally saw a limited release in 2003 through Rhino Handmade under the title St. Cecilia: The Elektra Recordings. Then in 2007 Radioactive Records released the album (on cd and vinyl) as St. Cecilia: The California Album – Remastered.

Use in contemporary poetry

A poem by Australian poet A.D.Hope (1907–2000) "Moschus Moschiferus" is sub-titled 'A Song for St Cecilia's Day'. The poem is of 12 stanzas and was written in the 1960s.
