Music and Lyrics: 3/30-4/6---Is It In YOUR Head?

You might recognize this as the song that David Archuleta sang on American Idol Tuesday night. The message of the song is very powerful. I want to know what you think the message is, and then I'll tell you what I think!
You're the Voice by John Farnham
We have, the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing, we can make it betterooooh,
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?...
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
Ooooh, We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?...
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o (x3)
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o

Riddle: 3/30-4/6

Last week's riddle was:
"A horse is tied to a 15 ft. rope and there is a bail of hay 25 ft. away from him. Yet the horse is able to eat from the bail of hay. How is this possible?"
Answer: The rope wasn't tied to anything so the horse could move to get to the bail of hay.
This week's riddle is"
"A farmer in California owns a beautiful pear tree. He supplies the fruit to a nearby grocery store. The store owner has called the farmer to see how much fruit is available for him to purchase. The farmer knows that the main trunk has 24 branches. Each branch has exactly 12 boughs and each bough has exactly 6 twigs. Since each twig bears one piece of fruit how many plums will the farmer be able to deliver?"
Hint: This riddle is a bit of a trick question!

Music and Lyrics for 3/23-3/29...Is it in YOUR Head?


Eleanor Rigby (Lennon/McCartney)


Aah, look at all the lonely people

Aah, look at all the lonely people


Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been

Lives in a dream

Waits at the window,

wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door

Who is it for?


All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?


Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear

No one comes near.

Look at him working.

Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there

What does he care?


All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?


Aah, look at all the lonely people

Aah, look at all the lonely people


Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name

Nobody came

Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave

No one was saved


All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?

American Idol Review: Top 10 (!)

Welcoming the American Idol Season 7 Top 10!

  • David Cook did fabulous this week! He really does surprise me every week with the things he does with the music. On Tuesday night he used one of those voice mixer things in the middle of his performance. (You know, like the Geico commercial?) Simon did complain about him getting a little bit predictable, though. Well excuuuuse me! * * * * performance
  • David Archuleta had a much better performance this week than last, but he continues to do more ballads than up-beat songs. I'm getting kind of tired of it! He really should try something new this Tuesday. (Oh, by the way, my dad thinks that he has a bit of a Broadway type voice. I kind of agree!) * * *.5 performance
  • Michael Johns had a bad week. The song that he chose was telling a story, so when he condensed this 5 minute long song into 1:30, it got kind of confusing. Plus he forgot some of his lines and was off key. Better luck next week Michael! * * * performance
  • Jason Castro surprised me! He sang a Beatles song that was half in French! It was very cool, but yet again he had some pitch problems. I would also like to see him try a different type of music. A little less folk-tuney would be nice. * * *.5 performance
  • I didn't get to see all of Chikezie's performance, but I'm pretty sure he did a slower song. It was okay, especially since nothing could beat his performance from last week! * * * performance
  • Brooke White was all decked out in sunshine Tuesday night! She was wearing a yellow dress with a yellow back round to match with her song. Simon didn't like this aspect of the performance and none of the judge's liked her dance moves. Sorry Brooke! No more "woo-ing!" * * *.5 performance
  • Syesha was F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! She sang a pretty ballad with much grace. Good job! * * * * performance
  • Ramiele was good, but not good enough for my taste. She tried doing a more up-beat tune, but she seems to be better with ballads. She's nice and everything, but I think that she should leave the show soon because I'm getting very bored with her. * * * performance
  • Kristy is still here?! I'm about ready to shoot myself over this girl! She is soooooooo annoying! Her performance this week was better than any of her others, but she's been in the bottom EVERY WEEK! She NEEDS to go! * * performance
  • Carly did a great job in my opinion, but apparently America didn't think so because she was in the bottom three! What gives? * * * * performance
  • Amanda left us this week. Her performance was just okay, but it was still sad to see her go. I personally liked her, but a lot of people I've talked to didn't. She's one of those you-like-them-or-you-don't type people I guess. We'll miss you Amanda! * * * performance

Hey There Delilah, Chapter Ocho (8)

Previously:
"Yes, Delilah. I want you to write to her. You can still write whatever you would like, but it has to be to Delilah." I could already feel the tears welling up in my eyes. Don't cry! Don't cry! a tiny voice shouted from within me.
"I-I-I can't!"
"Maybe you don't think you can just yet, but you will. You will."


COOKOO! COOKOO! The sound made me drop the book on the floor. "Eeekkk!" I screeched.
"Sorry about that," Leila said. "You'll get used to it." The alarming noise had come from a cookoo clock near Leila's desk. As I caught my breath Leila showed me to the door. "I'll see you next week!" she chirped as I walked out.
"Yeah, okay," I said, still in shock. I could see my mother waiting for me by the door.
"You can tell me all about it in the car," she said before I could open my mouth. "We're late for your appointment."

It was 7:30 later that night. My windows were open, letting the cool breeze dance across my cheeks. I had my radio on, but I wasn't paying attention to it. Mindlessly, I was stroking my kitten, DJ. Delilah had given her to me for my birthday a few days before "it" happened, so it only made sense that she was present for this moment. "Alright DJ. Here goes nothing!" I slowly opened the tie-dyed journal from Leila. As I did, a wave of familiarity washed over me. There was something about the book that I couldn't describe, not then, not now. As my palms softly rested on the first page I felt a surge of energy rush through me. It felt like I had been electrocuted, but not enough to kill me. The music coming from my radio came to a stand still as I scrawled out the first words that came to me:
Hey there Delilah, it's me: Jolie.

Music and Lyrics: 3/16-3/22


Across the Universe by The Beatles


Words are flowing out like
endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass
They slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
are drifting through my open mind
Possessing and caressing me

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light which
dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a
restless wind inside a letter box
they tumble blindly as
they make their way across the universe

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe

Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

The Big Book: Pranks

One of my all-time favorite books is The Big Book of Girl Stuff by Bart King. The title is misleading though because it contains all sorts of kooky facts, cool things to do, fun quizzes, etc.

For those of you that are too lazy to go and buy the book for yourself can read this new page called: The Big Book page. Just know that
none of this info was written or put together by me, I'm just spreading the word.

Some Funny Pranks

Minty Oreos: After someone opens up a package of Oreos, remove a couple of the cookies. Carefully open the Oreos and use a butter knife to scrape the filling out. (Don't waste it! Mmmmmm...Oreo filling.) Then take white-colored toothpaste and spread it on the inside of the cookie wafers. Spread it around a bit till it looks right, put the cookies back together, and be patient!

Cell Phone Sabotage:
You will need a friend with a cell phone, and a diabolical sense of humor.
For this prank, you need to borrow your friend's cell phone. Say that you need to call your parents, and then pretend to dial the number and start talking. It would be good if you could walk out of your friend's hearing for the following.
What you will do is access the menu for her voice mail. You want to change her voice mail mesage to a new message. There are lots of possibilites for her voice mail message, ranging rom goofy to weird. here are some examples, but feel free to make up your won!
*Vacation: Hi this is ____. I have left the country and won't be back for 6 months, so please don't leave a message.
*Wacky: (hysterical laughter) I love LOOFAHS! (more hysterical laughter)
*Annoying: Hi this is ____...Hello?...Is somebody there? I can here you breathing, why don't you say something? HEEELLLLOOOO?!

After returning her cell phone, thank your friend, and try to look innocent for the next couple of weeks.
Haha!

The Talking Appliance:
You will need: a neighbor who likes you, a pair of walkie-talkies.
Although this trick can work in your house, the odds of it working are improved with a neighbor of friend. Smuggle one of your walkie-talkies into your neighbor's house, maybe during one of the times they've foolishly invited you over. When it's safe, turn the walkie-talkie on and set its volume on "high".
Where you put the walkie-talkie is up to you. It could be the back of the fridge, or inside the laundry hamper. After you leave, get the other walkie-talkie and speak into it What you say depends on where the left the device.
Fridge: Help me! I'm freezing in here! So cold...can't feel my control knobs!
Laundry hamper: I don't mean to complain, but it smells like an outhouse in here.
Oven: I'm burning up!
*Be sure to use your common sense with this. Don't put the walklie-talkie in the oven unless you're sure you can get it back out before someone starts baking!

Hope you have fun with this! (MUHAHA!)
harold;)

Quote: 3/16-3/22

"I'm not offended by 'dumb blonde' jokes because I know I'm not dumb. I also know I 'm not blonde."
-Dolly Parton-

Riddle: 3/16-3/22

Last week's riddle was:
"Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How'd he do it?"
Answer: The man was standing on an ice cube with a rope around his neck. As the ice cube melted, his feet were hanging in mid air, thus killing him.
This week's riddle is:
"$21.00 needs to be split evenly among 2 fathers and 2 sons. How is this possible?"

3/11 American Idol Review

The votes are in and DAVID HERNANDEZ is out. David H., as well as Kristy and Syesha were in the bottom three. Here is how the night went...

The theme of the night was Lennon/McCartney songs. Apparently this song book has been wanted for six seasons! The contestants certainly did a good job (for the most part, anways!).

Chikezie Eze
"She's A Woman" - John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Chikizie is in the house! Woo-woo! He was on fire! Fantastic! I loved the whole country vibe at the beginning, and the rock parts were fab too. Nice Chikezie!
* * * * * performance
David Archuleta
"We Can Work It Out" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
This was by far his worst performance. The crowd favorite forgot some of his lyrics, much to his disapointment. But all is well. We love him anyways!
* * .5 performance
David Cook
"Eleanor Rigby" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
This "Black Horse" as Paula likes to put it, is going strong! David continues to impress me with his amazing ability to turn anything into rock music and last night was no exception!
* * * * * performance
David Hernandez
"I Saw Her Standing There" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
David left with a bad performance in his memory. It was a fairly simple song, but he over did it with the dance moves and attitude. In my opinion it was verging on creepy! See ya David!
* * * performance
Jason Castro
"If I Fell" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
I really like this guy, but I think he needs to work on his pitch a little bit. The high notes that he his known for are getting a little bit hard to listen to.
* * * .5 performance
Michael Johns
"Across The Universe" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
I actually really liked this performance! It might have been simple and safe as Randy and Simon said, but I thought that was what was so great about it. Great performance Michael!
* * * * performance
Amanda Overmyer
"You Can't Do That" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Wow! This rockin' skunk look-a-like is really good! If you don't like her, you don't. But if you like her style, she is really fun to listen to! Go Amanda! It's your birthday! We're gonna party like it's your birthday! (Just kidding. It's not actually her b-day. ;)
* * * *.5 performance
Brooke White
"Let It Be" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
This was a really great song choice for Brooke. (Obviously, because Simon loved it!) Her voice sounded good and you could tell she was really into it. Ryan loves your shoes, Brooke! ;)
* * * * performance

Carly Smithson

"Come Together" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Two words: L-O-V-E-D I-T! She finally picked the right song! Brava Carly!
* * * * * performance

Kristy Lee Cook

"Eight Days A Week" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Yuck, yuck, YUCK! Kristy's country version of this song was YUCKY! And that creepy thing she does with her eyes when she sings? Ugh! Even always-nice Paula didn't like it! I can't believe she is still here! At least David H. could sing!
* performance
Ramiele Malubay
"In My Life" -John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Good, but boring. Ho-hum. Ramiele, please save our pillows from being covered in drool and pick an up-beat song, okay?

* * *.5 performance

Syesha Mercado

"Got To Get You Into My Life" - John Lennon & Paul McCartney
I thought this was pretty good, but something was missing. I'm not sure what though...
* * *.5 performance

Do you agree with my review? Leave a comment and let me know AND who you thing will be in the top 2!

Hey There Delilah, Chapter 7: Part II

Previously:
With my eyes fixed on Leila, I slowly opened the package. I had no idea what it could be. As I pulled off the last bit of paper, though, I found out.

Laying in my hands was what appeared to be a notebook...I least I think that's what it was. It was a medium sized book, about as tall and wide as a Harry Potter book, maybe a little bit bigger. There were a lot of pages bound into that litle book. I'd have to guess around 500. The outside of the journal looked like it might have once been a composition notebook, but it wasn't anymore. Leila had wrapped the outside in the most special wrapping paper I'd ever seen! The only way I can describe it is that it looked like an artist had taken five different paintbrushes and twenty different colors and whipped the brushes at the paper. It made a beautiful spiral pattern with all of the colors winding in and out of each other. On the spine of the book was written Happiness in swirly-curly handwriting. When I flipped the inside open, the cover had a name plate that said:
"Happiness is the only true color, the rest are just shades of joy."
Underneath this was my name, in the same twirly handwriting that was on the spine.
"Do you like it?" Leila said softly.
"Oh yes!" I breathed. "Very much!"
"Now, I must tell you that this book is for a very specific reason. As you've probably guessed by now, it is a journal. You can write whatever you want in it and no one has to know what it says...except for one." I looked up at her with a questioning look in my eyes.
"Who?" I asked.
"Delilah." Utter silence fell onto us like a thick woolen blanket, itchy and slightly irratating.
"Excuse me?" I squeaked.
"Yes, Delilah. I want you to write to her. You can still write whatever you would like, but it has to be to Delilah." I could already feel the tears welling up in my eyes. Don't cry! Don't cry! a tiny voice shouted from within me.
"I-I-I can't!"
"Maybe you don't think you can just yet, but you will. You will."

Weekly Quote: 3/9-3/15

"The good psychic would pick up the phone before it rang. Of course it is possible there was no one on the other line.
Once she said, "God Bless you!"
I said, "I didn't sneeze."
She looked deep into my eyes
and said, "You will, eventually."
And darn it if she wasn't
right. Two days later I sneezed."


-Ellen DeGeneres-

Riddle: 3/9-3/15

Last week's riddle was:

"A man was to be sentenced, and the judge told him, "You may make a statement. If it is true, I'll sentence you to four years in prison. If it is false, I'll sentence you to six years in prison." After the man made his statement, the judge decided to let him go free. What did the man say?"
"Answer: You will sentence me to six years in prison. This made the judge so confused that she just decided to let him go free."

This week's riddle is:

"Two cops walked into a room with no windows and found a dead man who obviously hung himself from the ceiling, though they couldn't figure out how. There was no chair beneath him that he might have jumped off of, or a table. Just a puddle of water. How'd he do it?"

Muisc and Lyrics

"One"

One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one, its the loneliest number since the number one

No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes is the saddest experience you'll ever know

Cause one is the loneliest number that you'll ever know
One is the loneliest number
Even worst then two
Yeah
Its just no good anymore since you went away
Now I spend my time just making up rhymes of yesterday

One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
Since you went away
Since you went away
(One is the loneliest number since you've gone away)
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
Since you've gone away

Its just no good anymore since you went away
Now I spend my time just making up rhymes of yesterday

One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
One is the loneliest number
Since you went away
Since you went away

AI Top 12


Well, last night American Idol reached the halfway mark. It was a joyous night for some, but a sad night for others. Here are the results:

Voted off:


  • Kady Malloy *---> This girl really annoyed me! She couldn't sing for the life of her and Simon was right: Kady didn't have a personality at all!

  • Luke Menard *---> Little girly voice that was not at all an enjoyable expierience to listen to. I know he is the high voice in a band, but he can't sing on his own. Sorry Luke!

  • Asia'h Epperson * * * * * ---> Wow! She was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Her voice was very different: it sounded almost broken (if you know what I mean), but in a way that sounded good. I'm so sad to see her go!

  • Danny Noriega * * * *.5---> This guy is one flaming ball of fire! He has an attitude that can sometimes get out of hand (ex: his last preformance), but Danny's voice is really great. I think he should have stayed as well, but probably would have been voted off next week.

Top 12: (drum roll please!)



  • David Cook * * * * *---> A cool guitarist that can turn any song into rock. One of my top 2 fav's!

  • David Archuleta * * * * *---> At 17 years old, this singer has a very mature voice. My other favorite, I'd put my money on him! $20 he's going to win!

  • Jason Castro * * *.5---> Dread dude! With that hippy hair comes hippy attitude! Jason is excellent at singing little folky songs. Very nice, very nice!

  • David Hernandez * * * *---> A very good singer. Can sing just about anything with ease and style.

  • Michael Johns * * *.75---> A little Aussie, a little bit rock, and little bit blues. This guy is cool!

  • Chikezie * * *---> Sounds like your average male pop singer. Good, but nothing exciting. I think he should have been voted off instead of Danny because he has no originality, no sparkle.

  • Brooke White * * *.5---> Another good folk singer. Love the hair!

  • Syesha * * *.75---> How do you spell it? S-YES-sha! This girl can sing (with a 'fro!)

  • Ramiele Malubay * * *.75---> I can't believe the voice that comes out of this tiny girl! Wow! But I do think that she needs to step it up a notch, her music is getting kind of boring...

  • Carly Smithson * * * *---> This Irish chick has got it going on! She can really belt it out! Awesome!

  • Amanda Overmyer * * * *---> Rock on! She's a nurse, but she has a very slick rocker style. Love it!

  • Kristy Lee Cook * *.5---> One word: -B-O-R-I-N-G! She can sing okay, but she is totally forgettable. Asia'h should have stayed in her place, in my highly acclaimed opinion.

Now I want to know what YOU think! Do you agree with my opinions and ratings? Do you have a different idea? Who is YOUR favorite? Anyone want to take my bet;)? Let me know and post your ideas HERE!

Music and Lyrics: Is It In YOUR Head?

Hey T.W.H. Readers! The highly acclaimed "Music and Lyrics" section of this blog is getting a mini makeover: it is now all about the hits of yesterday, the great songs that everyone has forgotten about. Some of these songs are a couple months old or even a couple decades, but either way they are hits in my mind, so CHECK IT OUT!!!

"Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley
I remember when,
I remember,
I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?Does that make me crazy?
Possibly

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now,
who do you, who do you, who do you,
who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha
bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Well,

I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking,
I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
Uh, uh
