Kenny Chesney - Somewhere With You

Today's song of the day, is going to have to be a little shorter than usual.  We are not permitted to share anything with you all at this point, but we have been working very hard this past week, even though there were not any album reviews.  Stay tuned and you will hear all of the exciting news very soon.

I am not the first person you should come talk to when it comes to country music.  I am just not a big fan of that country twang.  However, there are some songs that I absolutely love.  Somewhere With You by Kenny Chesney is one of those songs, and it is today's song of the day.  This song is off of Chesney's 2010 album Hemingway's Whiskey.  This is not your typical Kenny Chesney song, (no mention of beer, trucks, or horses).  This is a really beautiful love song, that I think could have been produced as a hit in any genre.  I am going to stress the fact that this isn't really a country song, only because our fan base hasn't ever shown an interest in country music.  I've been listening to this a lot lately, and I hope you all enjoy it as well.  Don't forget to check back this week for some exciting updates!

Lyrics:

If you're going out with someone new

I'm going out with someone too

I won't feel sorry for me, I'm getting drunk

But I'd much rather be somewhere with you

Laughing loud on a carnival ride

Driving around on a Saturday night

You made fun of me for singing my song

Got a hotel room just to turn you on

You said pick me up at three a.m.

You're fighting with your Mom again

And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go somewhere with you, yeah

I won't sit outside your house

And wait for the lights to go out

Call up an ex to rescue me, climb in their bed

When I'd much rather sleep somewhere with you

Like we did on the beach last summer

When the rain came down and we took cover

Down in your car, out by the pier

You laid me down, whispered in my ear

I hate my life, hold on to me

If you ever decide to leave

Then I'll go, I'll go, I'll go

I can go out every night of the week

Can go home with anybody I meet

But it's just a temporary high

Cause when I close my eyes

I'm somewhere with you

Somewhere with you

If you see me out on the town

And it looks like I'm burning it down

You won't ask and I won't say

But in my heart I'm always somewhere with you

Laughing loud on a carnival ride

Driving around on a Saturday night

You made fun of me for singing my song

Got a hotel room just to turn you on

You said pick me up at three a.m.

You're fighting with your mom again

And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go

I can go out every night of the week

Can go home with anybody I meet

But its just a temporary high

Cause when I close my eyes

I'm somewhere with you

Somewhere with you

I'm somewhere with you

I'm somewhere with you

Somewhere with you

Somewhere with you

Justin Timberlake - Suit and Tie (feat. Jay-Z)

He's Back!!  On January 10th, Justin Timberlake announced that he was ready to re-enter the music scene via YouTube (embedded below).  This video had everyone very excited about Timberlake's future in music.  He helped add to our conversations by releasing more information on his new music.  What we know now is that he is planning on releasing a new album in 2013.  It will be his first new album since 2006.  He also revealed the title of the new album, The 20/20 Experience.  In addition to all of this exciting news, he released his first new single, called Suit and Tie (feat. Jay-Z).  With the recent release of all of this news, we had to make it the Song of the Day.  It is currently number one on the iTunes chart, which goes to show you how highly anticipated JT's new music is.  We are certainly intrigued by his first single, and we look forward to reviewing his new album, as soon as it is released.

Lyrics:

 I be on my suit and tie s***, tie s***, tie

I be on my suit and tie s***, tie s***

Can I show you a few things?

A few things, a few things, little baby, cause

I be on my suit and tie s***, tie s***

I be on my suit and tie s***, tie s***

Let me show you a few things

Let me show you a few things

You ready, JT?

[Verse 1]

I can't wait til I get you on the floor, good-looking

Going out so hot, just like an oven

And I'll burn myself but just had to to touch it

It's so fly and it's all mine

Hey baby, we don't mind all the watching

Cause if they study close, real close they might learn something

She ain't nothing but a little doozy when she does it

She's so fly, tonight

[Hook]

And as long as I've got my suit and tie

I'ma leave it all on the floor tonight

And you got fixed up too tonight

Let me show you a few things, show you a few things

All dressed up in black and white

And you're dressed in that dress I like

Love is swinging in the air tonight

Let me show you a few things, show you a few things

Let me show you a few things,

Show you a few things about love

Not that we're in the swing of love

Let me show you a few things, show you a few things

About love

[Verse 2]

Stop, let me get a good look at it

So thick now I know why they call it a fatty

S*** so sick hit and picked up a habit

That's alright, cause you're all mine

Go on and show 'em who you call daddy

I guess they're just mad cause girl, they wish they had it

My killer, my filler, yeah you're a classic

You're all mine, tonight

[Hook]

Get out ya seat Hov

[Verse 3: Jay-Z]

All black at the white shows

White shoes at the black shows

Green card for the Cuban links

Ya'll sit back and enjoy the light show

Nothing exceeds like success

Style got from having the best of the best

Is this what it all about?

I met the rest...the rant

Disturbing the guests

Years of distress, tears on the dress

Try to hide her face with some makeup sex, ugh

This is trouble season, time for tuxedos for no reason

All saints for my angel, Alexander Wang too

A**-tight denim and some Dunks

I'll show you how to do this young

No papers, catch favors

Get high out Vegas

Who says these devils ain't looking for trouble

You just got good genes so a n**** tryna cuff you

Tell your mother that I love her cause I love you

Tell your father we go farther as a couple

Didn't lose a daughter, got a son

I'll show you how to do this, hun!

[Hook to end]

Ed Sheeran - Give Me Love

Today's song of the day is Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran.  Ed Sheeran's debut album, + (pronounced "Plus"), was released in September of 2011.  He has been critically acclaimed as a songwriter and as a musician.  He is most commonly recognized as the singer of the hit song, "The A Team".  This song has peaked at number 19 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and has recently received a Grammy Nomination for Song of the Year.  "Give Me Love" was released as the sixth and final single from + and charted as high as 18 on the UK Singles Chart ( It did not chart in the US).  On the album, the song is 8 minutes and 46 seconds, which is the longest on the album.  The main reason for this is that there is a "hidden track" at the end of the song.  A "hidden track" is when an artist combines two separate songs into one song title.  They are usually placed at the end of an album and are broken up by a long pause, which makes the listener think that the song/album has ended.  Another example of this can be found on Coldplay's debut album.  The last song, "Everything's Not Lost", includes a hidden track titled "Life is for Living".  The hidden track on "Give Me Love", is called "The Parting Glass".  "Give Me Love" shows off Sheeran's unique songwriting style that has been admired by many.

Lyrics:

Give me love like her

'cause lately I've been walking up alone

Paint splattered teardrops on my shirt

Told you I'd let them go

And that I'll fight my corner

Maybe tonight I'll call ya

After my blood turns to alcohol

No, I just wanna hold ya.

Give me a little time to me or burn this out

We'll play hide and seek to turn this around

All I want is the taste that your lips allow

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

Give me love like never before

'Cause lately I've been craving more

And it's been a while but I still feel the same

Maybe I should let you go

You know I'll fight my corner

And that tonight I'll call ya

 After my blood is drowning in alcohol

No I just wanna hold ya.

Give a little time to me or burn this out

We'll play hide and seek to turn this around

All I want is the taste that your lips allow

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

Give a little time to me, or burn this out

We'll play hide and seek to turn this around

All I want is the taste that your lips allow

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

My, my, my, my, oh give me love,

M-my, m-my my, m-my my, give me love, lover

M-my, m-my my, m-my my, give me love, lover

M-my, m-my my, m-my my, give me love, lover

M-my, m-my my, m-my my, give me love, lover

[Repeat 4x]

[Break]

[Hidden track titled, "The Parting Glass"]

Of all the money that e'er I had

I've spent it in good company

And all the harm that e'er I done

Alas it was to none but me

And all I've done for want of wit

To memory now I can't recall

So fill to me the parting glass

Goodnight and joy be with you all

Of all the comrades that e'er I had

They are sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts that e'er I had

They would wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls unto my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I'll gently rise and I'll softly call

Goodnight and joy be with you all

A man may drink and not be drunk

A man may fight and not be slain

A man may court a pretty girl

And perhaps be welcomed back again

But since it has so ought to be

By a time to rise and a time to fall

Come fill to me the parting glass

Goodnight and joy be with you all

Goodnight and joy be with you all
