** HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY **

To Celebrate Valentine's day...........i thought I'd share something with you all!! Its absolutely wonderful!!! I wish I could be my normal sarcastic self here but no...I'm serious its amazingness!!! WHY? Because it's MELANIE FIONA!!! And its THE TRACK on the Album that took my breath away!! YOU STOP MY HEART!!!

MELANIE RELEASED THIS AS A SPECIAL VALENTINE'S TREAT FOR EVERYONE ...SO ENJOY!!! FOR THOSE IN LOVE...AND THOSE WAITING FOR THIS FEELING!!

Melanie Fiona

Lately, I've been seriously obsessed with Melanie Fiona!!
I'm so excited she will be in DC this weekend. I'm definitely trying to go. I wanted to be in Baltimore tonight for her itunes album release party but i couldn't find a buddy to go with me. However....instead i went to her listening party via ustream via globalgrind.com. It was great. She can sang!!! Her album is great from what I've listened to in the last 24hours. Its so refreshing. If she continues she may be one of my favorite female singers!! No one will ever top Aaliyah but Melanie can be up there.

Listening to her, I realized I'm definitely a soul type girl. I can jam to Beyonce or Rihanna (a.k.a. the relevant hoe) or every now and then Alicia Keys (we all know I don't like her at all though....lol) but they don't do it for me.

Who does? Melanie Fiona (of course), India Arie, Heather Headley, Me'Shell Ndegeocello, Vivian Green, Amel Larrieux, Jill Scott, ....you see where I'm going!!

But yes...back to the topic at hand. In anticipation for her album, I downloaded a mixtape she did with ?uestlove and the Illadelphonics ...amazing. She did a few new tracks (i suppose they are new) and remixed some of the songs on her album. Because of this I'm having to get used to hearing the album version of a couple of the songs...but they still are the hotness either way. The only one I like much better on the mixtape is "Monday Morning".

Favorite Tracks
-It Kills Me
-Monday Morning
-You Stop My Heart (the way this one sounds just gives me chills)
-Teach Him
-Bang Bang

I mean I like all the tracks those are just the first ones that "spoke" to me. Ask me by the weekend I'll probably be used to the album version of "Ay Yo" and talmbout how "Johnny" is the best song of life or something. lol

Well I'll leave you with a lil' taste of Melanie. A Clip from the Subway Series she did (pls check that out...amazing), her new video for 'It Kills Me' and a few screen shots from the listening party last night.

HEARTBROKEN

Sometimes there are songs that feel like they were written for your exact feelings.......and right now........these are the two that are speaking to me in a crazy kind of way.



Baby Baby Baby...... I Wanna Satisfy You.
Maybe I Try Too Damn Hard, To Show You I Love You.
What Made You Go And Run This Game On Me?
When I Stayed By Your Side,
What Made You Go And Leave?

Im Tired Of My Heart..... Being Broken.
Im Tired Of These Tears..... Falling Down My Face.
Im Tired Of This Love..... Being Taken For Granted.(Wont You Go Your Way)

You Dont Know, How I Feel..... Im For Real.
I Used To Be In Love,...... But Not Nomore.
When Will You Learn That I Got Feelings Too?
You'll Never Know Untill It Happens To You.

Im Tired Of My Heart..... Being Broken.
Im Tired Of These Tears..... Falling Down My Face.
Im Tired Of This Love..... Being Taken For Granted.(Wont You Go Your Way)

Theres One Thing I Gotta Ask of You,
One Thing, Gotta Ask Of You (Gotta Ask Of You)
If This Is True (True)
Why You Took Your Love Away?
Why You Took Your Love Away, From Meeee
Theres One Thing I Gotta Ask of You,
One Thing, Gotta Ask Of You (Gotta Ask Of You)
If This Is True (True)
Why You Took Your Love Away?(Whyyyyy)

Im Tired Of My Heart..... Being Broken.
Im Tired Of These Tears..... Falling Down My Face.(Falling, Falling)
Im Tired Of This Love..... Being Taken For Granted.(Wont You Go Your way)

Oh yaahh ive got trouble with my friends
Trouble in my life
Problems when you don’t come home at night
But when you do you always start a fight
But I cant be alone , I need you to come on home
I know you messin around, but who the hell else is gonna hold me down
Ooooh I gotta be out my mind to think it’s gonna work this time
A part of me wants to leave, but the other side still believes
And it kills me to know how much I really love you
So much I wanna ooh hoo ohh to you hoo hoo
Should I grab his cell, call this chick up
Start some shhhh then hang up
Or I should I be a lady
Oohh maybe cuz I wanna have his babies
Ohh yah yahh cuz I don’t wanna be alone
I dont need to be on my own
But I love this man
But some things I cant stand ohhhh
Ive gotta be out my mind
To think its gonna work this time
A part of me wants to leave but the other half still believes
and it kills me to know how much I really love you
So much I wanna oohh hoo ohhh, to you hoo hooo
Should i pay him back to see how he'll react
To see if he'll react to my love , my love, my love
Ive gotta be out my mind
To think its gonna work this time
A part of me wants to leave but the other side still believes
and it kills me to know how much I really love you
So much I wanna oohh hoo ohhh, to you hoo hooo
