Still going to post about Michael. Hehe.. bare with me... i'm a huge fan. Throughout my childhood up til now, on days and time when i feel down about life i would listen to MJ's songs. Most of his popular hits were the ones with less controversy and have a nice beat. But there is a motivation side of him. Through his lyrics i feel positive vibes and on days when i feel down listening to these few songs and understanding the meaning helps.
One of it was called Keep the faith.
If You Call Out Loud
Will It Get Inside
Through The Heart Of Your Surrender
To Your Alibis
And You Can Say The Words
Like You Understand
But The Power's In Believing
So Give Yourself
A Chance * 'Cause You Can
Climb The Highest Mountain

Need Is The Will To Wart It
And Uhh, Little Self-Esteem
So Keep The Faith
Don't Let Nobody Turn You 'Round

To A Place That You Only Dream Of
When You're All Alone

But The Power's In Beliving
So Give Yourself A Chance

If You Only Try
So Keep The Faith, Ow
Don't Let Nobody Take You Down,

Then there's Smile.... kinda sad listening to it now tho.... should smile :). This is such a nice video. Props to the person who made this. It's nice seeing old videos of michael having fun and smiling.
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...
If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile...
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
History
I liked the msg at the end of the song. Not sure who was the man behind that voice. but he said "some men see things as they are and said why, i dream things that never were and said why not?"
Then there his inspirations to the world to change how we are so that the world would be a better place. I'm not going to post heal the world. Altho i liked the song it's not my fav. Man in the mirror (prvious post) nailed the msg. But i'm going to post we are the world. I loved this song. It's written by Mj himself. I always wondered who's the guy who sang with stevie wonder towards the end of the song. His voice is so powerful.
There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on
Pretneding day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come
When we stand together as one
[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
