acoustic sessions

Last night while I was searching for something new, I met with some "mashup" songs.

Then I wrote "acoustic mashup cover" in Youtube's search bar

and I listened Megan Davies's lots of mashup covers.

That was the first time that I listened a live mashup.

We Can't Stop and Price Tag are the two songs that I like so much.

That's the perfect match I think.

"price tag can't stop!"

 

"You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone"

I realized Emeli Sandé's voice on e2 today 

while I was looking at Oxford styled shoes on internet.

I shared the song named Maybe before,

but now it is time for sharing Next to Me.

" when the money's spent and all my friends have vanished
and i can't seem to find no help or love for free
I know there's no need for me to panic
cause i'll find him, i'll find him next to me"

I was searching for a song to share on the blog on Youtube.

I found Let Me Down Easy and it is kind of a stranger song to me.

I accept and appreciate changes easily.

"We are broken by others
But we mend ourselves
We take comfort in strangers
But I don't think it helps
If every fool wore a crown
I would be a king and not a clown"

We were in a hurry to have the breakfast quickly last Sunday,

cause my husband had to go to work and I was very sleepy as it was 8 AM!

Then he opened Morning Acoustic from Spotify and this song started.

I have an ukulele which I basically call as "Uku" and still cannot play well.

But I love songs played with ukulele so much.

"You always thought twice didn't you
My baby blue... You'd say,
'What goes around comes around'
Didn't you?"

No One Ever Loved, performed by Lykke Li, 

is another song that I tagged by Shazam 

while I was watching "The Fault in Our Stars".

As this is a harrowing movie, the soundtracks are slow and heavy.

"You're the diamond in the gutter
You're the hole inside my heart
You're the one I will remember every night
Before the dawn meets the light"

I was just spending my time by surfing on the internet 

and Spotify was supporting me with the "Afternoon Acoustic" list.

Then I heard You and Me cover of Boyce Avenue.
I always think that originals are better 

as sometimes this idea becomes a failure but I still insist on.

"What day is it? And in what month?
This clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do, nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all of the people
And I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off of you "

Last weekend I watched the popular movie "The Fault in Our Stars"
(2014, imdb rating 8.1/10).

I tagged all of the songs during the movie by Shazam.

Long Way Down was the first song that I tagged which is sang by Tom Odell.

Tom Odell is known with "Another Love".

"It's a long way down
You know it's a long way down
Feels like a long way down
Love it feels like a long way down
So honey don't leave, don't leave,
Please don't leave me now"

There's nothing to write so much thing about Pink. Briefly, I admire her.

After I listened Ina Müller's voice for this song, I tried to find out the original version

and when I saw Pink's version, I directly made a decision to share the original one.

"Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly."

I like listening to Jessie J's songs so much and
Nobody's Perfect is the first song that I listened from her.

Cristian Cabrerizo better known as Cris Cab (born January 21, 1993) is an American singer-songwriter who has become well known with his international hit "Liar Liar".
His songs are a fusion of pop, reggae, and soul.
I like especially reggae songs so much, therefore today's song is coming from Cris Cab.
Have a funny Sunday!

"Liar, liar,
She's on fire
She's waiting there, around the corner
Just a little aid, and she'll jump on ya'"

MAGIC! is a Canadian reggae fusion band.

In 2013, they released their debut single, "Rude", from their debut album Don't Kill the Magic.

This was one of the songs that we listened during our vacation this summer.

"Can I have your daughter for the rest of my life?
Say yes, say yes 'cause I need to know
You say I'll never get your blessing 'til the day I die
Tough luck, my friend, but the answer is 'No'"

Clean Bandit is a British electronic group founded in Cambridge, England in 2009.
In January 2014, they scored their first UK Singles Chart-topping single with "Rather Be",
featuring elements of classical music along with a dance music beat.

Alexa Goddard (born 21 December 1988) is an English pop and R&B singer.
I think that her acoustic cover is the best version of this song. 

"If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be"

I couldn't find someone else who sings Wrecking Ball better than Miley Cyrus.

I found BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge version available on Youtube.

Wrecking Ball's original music video stirred up most of the people 

who are watching it for the first time.

But then due to cencorship issues, producers are forced to revise the music video.

"I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me"
 

Lights Bokan (born Valerie Anne Poxleitner on April 11, 1987)
is a Canadian electropop musician, singer, and songwriter.
And now she goes acoustic for her song "River".

"Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow"

Baby Blue is an English rapper and singer.

She is getting known by her new song Bump nowadays.

Hope Murphy, Britain's Got Talent 2012 singer, made a nice piano cover of this song.

"And I can never understand why you ask me
My heart is dying in your hands but my heart beats
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump

And I can never understand why you told lies
I wanna move on but I can't for my heart cries
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump
It goes bump bump bump bump, bump bump bump"

So tell everyone that we're back on our broadcast. 

Youtube is finally available in Turkey (w/o VPN and Hotspotshield) and 

I'm continuing to share acoustic records that I like.

Deriving the name from the idea of “the music taking control”,

ortoPilot is the musical brain child of Manchester based, multi-instrumentalist Matt Hutchison. 

Taking much inspiration from his musical hero John Mayer, his spectacular musicianship 

takes the saturated singer/songwriter genre to a whole new level.

"Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast"

Above & Beyond is an English dance music group which was formed in 2000 

and consisting of members Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness and Paavo Siljamäk. 

"I'm sorry baby
You were the sun and moon to me
I'll never get over you, you'll never get over me"

Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September 1983 – 23 July 2011) was an English singer-songwriter
known for her deep contralto vocals.
After years of abusing drugs, then alcohol,
Winehouse died of alcohol poisoning on 23 July 2011.
Her album Back to Black posthumously became the UK's best-selling album
of the 21st century, at that point.

"We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black"
