if your heart is smart enough, figure this out.

hi there. if anyone there. if not, i'm just talking to myself. i am a big fan of music. famous or not, well-known or not, underground or mainstream, as long as the songs have some quality that fits my soul, i will definitely fall in love with the song. and for me, good songs must have these requirements :

- nice meaningful lyrics. (this is compulsory)
- nice melody with unique variety and identity.
- nice hot and sexy girl in the video clips. (kidding.)

duh. screw the list. who am i to judge. but i mean it with the nice meaningful lyrics. good songs are compulsory to have that quality. because from the lyrics, we can judge how the songs were really mean. not from the ear. but from the heart and from the soul. (it's always about the soul nigga). deep and meaningful lyrics plays the most important role to touch the heart of the listeners. sometime, if we did not carefully study the lyrics, we would never really know what the song really tell you about.

and for my own personal experience, i never knew that John Mayer's song, Your Body Is A Wonderland is song about a he and a she having a hot passionate sex (hot ke? i would never know) if i don't listen closely to the lyrics. well. i'm a malay. it takes a little time to understand the meaning of the song and i was just a little cute kid back then. heh. roughly, from the melody, the music and how John Mayer singing that song, u will never gonna figure it out when u heard it for the first time. maybe after a few time hearing it, u will totally figured that the song was really sooooo 18sx. like a softcore porn literature. i'm just wondering, how did the song passed through our local radio airplay? shouldn't there should be a screener for our local airplay? ( i just used the word screener and i hope u guys get what i mean )
so, lyrics, is a life to every songs. lyrics, if combined with a beautiful rhythm, melody and beat will become a great songs. plus the voice of the singer laa of course.

so let's start to understand this song. Back to Me by The All American Rejects.

a.

Hey you,
So you never really found your way.
Stay true,
Did you ever make it through today?

b.
I know that when I think about a day without it,
Everyday's the same.
You wish that you could find someone
But I'm the only one to blame

c.
Can't you see I beg and plead?
'Cause when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you're gonna find your way back to me

d.
No don't
Don't you ever let a piece of me down
'Cause time won't
Get back when I'm never around

e.
When we live between so many walls
That I can barely breathe
You say that you just want someone
But I'm the only one you need

f.
Can't you see I beg and plead?
'Cause when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you're gonna find your way

If it's me that you don't need
Then when the lights go out tonight
I know you're never gonna find your way

g.
Soon when I get you, I won't let you go
Ooh if I let you you can take away all that I thought was wrong
And if you hear me there's not much to say
There's gotta be a better way

h.
Can't you see I beg and plead?
'Cause when your eyes light up the sky tonight
I know you're gonna find your way back to me

Can't you see I beg and plead?
'Cause when the lights go out tonight
I know you're never gonna find your way

If it's me that you don't need
That when the lights go out tonight
I know you're never gonna find your way

i.
If you pace around the world [Incomprehensible]
And when your eyes light up the skies at night
I know you're gonna find your way back to me

let us try to understand it part by part.

a. the singer try to persuade the girl / the one he loves ( in this case, we take it as a girl because homo sucks) with a couple of question. but i think, the singer are trying to ask the girl how is she doing after what they may have gone through.

b. we could see the singer is not doing quite well and the girl blame him because she cannot find other guys to be with. maybe the girl blame the singer because deep inside, she really wanted him and she still love him. or maybe she is just a stuck up bitch with an ego size of mount everest. well it is possible. heh.

c. here comes the chorus. the part where most people will remember. the chorus is quite sad and pathetic but the singer is truly love her. he beg and plead to the girl, hoping she would come back to him. notes to all of the girls out there, when a guy beg and plead or even cry to u, they maybe look weak and pathetic but u're the one who makes them like that. and it also means that the feeling they have towards you is true. so, if u find a guy, sensitive and down to earth enough, grab him. before he falls to another girls hand. and i know someone, who is just like that. sensitive and down to earth. look on the right side of the blog, there is a picture of a guy try to look as cool as he can with the cigarettes. heh. and he is an ex-smokers too.

d. the singer is actually can be divided into pieces. in this case, maybe he is a special human. maybe he is a Jigsaw Man. that have thousands of pieces. and he told the girl not to let a piece of him down. because he will be incomplete. it is his hope. and he stated that, things will never be the same when he is not around. the Jigsaw Man. he think he is complete if he had her in her life.

e. look. there is a wall. what kind of wall is that? is that a brick wall? the WWE indestructibles moves "wall of jericho"? from my side of view, their relationship or past relationship was having a communication problem. they can barely be truthful to each other. they didn't know each other very well. leaving so many walls that divide them. the singer can't really stand that way. he seems to suffer. he wanted to be the one for her. but the bitch ignores him. she wanted somebody else. she thinks he wasn't good enough. damn. what a @#%$$.

f. it is the second version of the chorus. again, the singer beg and plead, hoping the girl would open up her eyes and see that he is the one that she needed. but in the second part, the singer stated that if still she doesn't change her mind, she won't see him as the one for her.

g. this is the bridge. i believe so. the singer stated that if the girl accept him back, he will never let the girl go. he will move in the girl way. he will have all new perspectives about the girl. he will always make sure that the girl always right. he did not want to say anything. this man is insanely love her. he will do anything if she wants him back. he will always be satisfied with her. no more complaining. he will do anything to make the relarionship better. but it seems to me that the guy do nothing wrong to the girl. i still believe the girl is a bitch.


**here is the part where the lead guitarist starts licking. he bend hardly on a lower notes strings then he proceed with a moody scales slowly from the high octave then to the lower octave in quite a sequences. then he turn to a more aggressive chord progression licks that ended with a high notes bending and a little cosmetics. then dramatically another series of chords progression that are running to the lower octaves and ended with a chord.**


h. this is the most dramatic part of the chorus. the singer try to reach to the medium octave of his voice (tarik nipis la org kata) to delivers a little bit of emotion to the song. if i be the girl, i will definitely break down and cry and say " uuww.. how sweeet.. sob sob..". still, the singer is a fool. he has fall in love with a wrong girl. with a bitch. cold heartless bitch ( sejuk hati kurang jalang ).
someway somehow, he still believe and wanted the girl to find a way back to him. if only she could see.

i. the ending. the deep and meaningful ending. still concludes to one. the singer still hoping that the girl will be bright enough to find, a way back to him. he really love that bitch.

****************************************************

conclusion.

1. the girl is a bitch. i hate her.
2. the singer is a sensitive and sweet just like the guy on the right side of this blog. kih kih kih.
