Melancholy In Love Pt. XI: You To Me by Donna Lewis

I love listening to lovey dovey songs, but I hate that it reminds me of how lonely I am.
Here's You To Me by Donna Lewis.

I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do.
Minus the feeling of loneliness.

Melancholy In Love Pt. VIII: Throw Me A Rope by KT Tunstall

Do I really need to give you a reason to download a beautiful, heartwarming, acoustic song from the amazing KT? I hope I don't. Seriously though, this song is one to have in your music collection, Throw Me A Rope is a song that's great to listen to during the cold nights of the fall.
Here's Throw Me A Rope by KT Tunstall.

Melancholy In Love Pt. VII: 23:30 by Perfume

I love Perfume, but this song and their other song, "Kiss & Music" are my favorites. "23:30" is their best slow slow they've (only) made. All I can say is that this song really calms down the numbness and anger I feel. It's hard to feel HappilyMelancholic all the time when people don't like you....
I also love this song because it reminds me of love. I think is that's the reason why it calms me down. Because it has that sense of love, calm, and understanding.
The instrumental is great too. Perfect to sleep to and perfect contemplative music too.

Melancholy In Love Pt. VI: I Never Really Loved You by the NeverEndings

I love Ivy, and hearing that their releasing a new album is great news to me. But, while I was trying to find information about the next album, I found out about this great duo.
The NeverEndings, are Dominique Durand and Andy Chase. Their songs are great for the other side of summer. Especially with this song, I Never Really Loved You.
I really like the beginning of the song, it gives you a sense of what the feelings going to be. Cold, distant, dark, and alone. The melody is somewhat upbeat while the lyrics are really good but really dark. Kind of the opposite version of Ivy.

Here's a song to start your summer of lovin' and/or summer of heartbreak.

Melancholy In Love Pt. V: Flood by Hurts to Purr

Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy

I like Hurts to Purr, but my favorite song from them is Flood. I love this song so much. It takes you and moves you, like the Sea. I think this song is what Melancholy In Love is all about.
Liz Pappademas's voice along with the melody arrangement of Tom Benton & Jeremy Bruch just makes Flood perfect. The lyrics are really saddening and each time when I listen to the song I think of rain on a normal dark spring day. Lying back on your bed thinking of so much that's making you feel down. This song hits me personally. Whenever I listen to it I'm taking away. It's just that good. I think if you love piano you'll love this song.
I don't really know what else to say for this song. It's too great to describe. If you've never really listened to music like this before it might not move you at first but give it time. You'll be swayed.

I can't believe I'd wish for so much suffering
But it's better than this nothing
Bring me anything, oh, to get my baby and me together again

Here's Flood by Hurts to Purr

Melancholy In Love Pt. IV: Algo Esta Cambiando [Something's Changing] by Julieta Venegas

Man, I don't know why I love the sounds of Julieta Venegas but she is winning my heart song by song. One of her songs, "Algo Esta Cambiando", is a great song about a relationship that is at first glance the same but if you look closely something's changing.
I love this song and I love this artist. I found out about Julieta Venegas from Nelly Furtado when she was on Furtado's song, "Baja Otro Luz [Under Another Light]". Hearing Furtado, Venegas, and La Mala Rodriguez singing, "El Color De Mi Vida Cambio Desde Que Tu Llegaste [The Color Of My Life Changed When You Arrived]" Back and forth like they were in a conversation was magical. It made the song a great one. If they collaborate again I'm buying the song, no questions asked. Anyways, moving on.....
Julieta Venegas treats her songs like children. You can just hear how much work has been put together for each song and Algo Esta Cambiando must have taken her weeks to put together. To make the song just right. The song itself is great to listen to.
I feel like I'm "in love" and then losing love when I listen to the song. Fading out of a relationship that was not working with me emotionally. I love that. I love how a song can take me and swoop me into a lovely story. It's great to hear songs like that.
All in All, I think this song is a great one, very close to a perfect song. For all music lovers out there if you love Perfect Pop you'll love Julieta Venegas. Especially the song, Algo Esta Cambiando. It's got a 97% out of 100% in the "Perfect Pop" Meter.
With vocalizing, hooks, and a chorus that'll echo in your head anytime anywhere, if America was very open to foreign music this song would top charts. But sadly that's not the case. Oh well, At least it top Latin Charts. Go on with your Spanish self Bonita!
While I listened to Julieta since January 2010, I've been having a lot of thought about what kind of music I like. I love so much music but I'm also picky at the same time. In middle school I thought I liked Indie Music but I don't. Cause the Decemberists piss me off and Vampire Weekend are annoying sometimes to me. And so on and so on.
I think that I like Pop.
Perfect Pop, not Popular Pop that sucks.
Good Pop that takes you and makes you want more.
Pop that's catchy.
Pop that tells a story.
Pop that takes you away.
Pop that makes people feel.
Pop that just makes you feel human.
I've explored through English, French, and Asian Pop since I was 8. I didn't know much about Latin Pop until 2009.
You know, I think that I wouldn't have explored Latin Pop Music if it wasn't for Nelly Furtado's 2009 album, Mi Plan. Also, I wouldn't have found out about Julieta Venegas without Furtado's help. Thank you, Nelly Furtado!

Melancholy In Love Pt. III: I Know by Algebra Blessett

I'm sorry, it's been a month. I've been gone for a whole month cause it was Black History Month. I love celebrating it. I was rediscovering R&B, Hip-Hop, and Rap music through February and I was watching a lot of Black TV Shows. God, they're addicting. I love being black. Anyways....
I love the vocal sounds of Algebra. To me, Ms. Blessett does a great job with her Pure R&B sounds and Pure R&B vocals. Lyrics that are true and filled with emotions. My favorite song of her's is, "I Know". The melodies and the beats of I Know are amazing. This song is on the Girlfriends Soundtrack. This song reminds me of the show Girlfriends but it also reminds me of myself. Growing, Learning and Knowing.
Here's I Know by Algebra Blessett

Hope you enjoy the song!





I didn't make this video but I really like it. I had to share it with you guys.

Melancholy In Love Pt. II: The Love Bug by M-flo loves BoA

The cover of Astromantic.

I've been really addicted to pop lately. I think I'm taking a break musically or something. It's either that or I'm just craving pop. I've been from Korea to Japan, France to Latin America & more. Pretty much all over the world except for the US. I think I've grown tired of English songs.
Anyways, I really like this song now because it really helped me write this one book I'm writing. I love songs that help me write. Especially when I'm brainstorming.
I love when I'm brainstorming. It's like I'm high on creativity. I'm off the walls one minute and then I'm productive the next! Who needs drugs when you're doing things that you love! Anyways...

Melancholy In Love: Nocturne by Bonnie Pink

I've been getting into Asian Music lately. Kpop & Jpop has taken my ears over. It's addicting right now. Though I've finally stumbled upon one that I really like.
