One of the people I enjoyed watching a lot then in my spare time last year was HappySlip. I did write about her once too in this blog post -… ok neverming.. seems that blog post is gone.. must’ve disappeared when I had some trouble bringing over my blog to the new webhost.
Anyway I did mention her before. She is a wonderfully talented, lovely comedian, who is seriously making herself known all over the workd now. Simply because she loves to make people smile. Well she made me smile again this afternoon.
You know that song by Rihanna “Take a Bow”? Ok no disrespect to Rihanna, but I have always found that while I like her tunes, I don’t exactly like her lyrics. She’s got talent yes, unique voice check but I just can’t stand the messages that comes out of her songs. Her tunes are lovely but then when you get to the words (which is like a major part of a song other than the melody) it’s like….. nggyyyeeekk?
Just like her other song “Unfaithful”. Yeah ok maybe some people do go through what she sings. But… just not my cup of tea, even if the music is nice. Here she sings about why she doesn’t want to be unfaithful anymore because it’s killing her man. Like a duh!!! Of course it’ll hurt the other and of course one should feel guilty.
Sidetracking a bit. Just listening to the original song and Happyslip’s verison.
And for enthusiasts… these are the lyrics. Since I couldn’t find a title to it. I’ll just call it this
I Stand Before You Now
You stand before me right now Telling me all your vows In front of God and our friends I’ll stay with you til the end I pledge my life
After all that I put you through You have shown your love that is true
And this is what I know You are not self seeking It’s your humble heart That always thinks of others You are worth the wait Noble man of honor I stand before you now and I accept your vows
For better, for worse For richer, for poorer In sickness, and in health oh I am yours
I stand before you now
and I accept your vows
Lovely lovely words and it does give a new hope for relationships and love. When my wedding day comes.. not to be so cheesy.. I’d wanna play this for Mister G 
.
I think I’ve heard enough of the moody thoughts on how relationships have no hope and how it’s all about the break up. Aren’t there enough breka ups as it is in the world. Listening to this, was something fresh and hopefully it’ll be fresh for you guys too.
Speaking of relationships and fresh things. Don’t forget to check out “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” at KLPAC this coming 6th November
