I have been obsessed with this song for the last 3.5 weeks of my life. I finally sat down and figured out the lyrics. This single hasn't been released yet, so we'll all just have to wait for it!
Jason Mraz - I Won't Give Up
When I look into your eyes.
It's like watching the night sky,
Or a beautiful sunrise.
So much they hold.
And just like them old stars,
I see that you've come so far.
To be right where you are,
How old is your soul?
I won't give up on us,
Even if the skies get rough.
I'm giving you all my love.
I'm still looking up.
And when you're needing your space,
To do some navigating,
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find.
Cause even the stars they burn,
Some even fall to the earth.
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it!
No I won't give up!
I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily,
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make.
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and skills that God gave,
We got a lot at stake.
And in the end you're still my friend,
At least we did intend for us to work,
We didn't break we didn't burn,
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in.
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not and who I am.
I won't give up on us,
Even the skies get rough,
I'm giving you all my love.
I'm still looking up.
So easy is our life,
What's mine is yours and yours mine.
Hardly do we ever fight,
We'd rather be kind!
I won't give up on us.
Even if they skies get dark.
I'm healing this broken heart.
And I know I'm worth it!
I won't give up on us,
God knows I am tough
I am loved
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No I won't give up on us,
God knows I'm tough enough,
We got a lot to learn.
We are, and we are worth it.
No I won't give up.
No, I won't give up.
I learned at a young age music speaks to all people. No matter race, age, religion. Music knows no barrier. I've learned to express myself through words. Put a word to a rhythm and you've created a magic everyone can experience.

Rolling In The Deep - Covers
Normally, I am not a fan of song covers done by random artists. Especially when it is an original song, sung by an artist with a crazy unique voice. Best example of this: Adele.
Adele's song Rolling In The Deep has skyrocketed off the charts. Covers are being done by everyone. Including bands that NEVER do covers. Perfect Example of this is Linkin Park at the Itunes festival in London. Now Linkin Park is notorious for not doing covers, and pride themselves on writing their own songs. But their cover of Adele is by far my favorite, and I really do have to give them credit. There are 2 other covers I honestly didn't mind. They are a military band, and the american idol top 3 winner.
Original Music Video:
Rolling In The Deep - Adele
Rolling In The Deep - Linkin Park
Rolling In The Deep - Military Cover
Rolling In The Deep - Haley Reinhart
I will say this, there is NOTHING like watching Adele live. I had the pleasure of standing front row, center stage for her concert here in Salt Lake City, Utah! Gallivan plaza isn't my favorite venue, but you know what, It is Adele. She would sound amazing no matter where she was singing!

Adele - Live
The first version of I Found A Boy by Adele
I am also a Once a Brandi song, ONLY a Brandi Carlile song, especially when it is one of my FAVORITE Brandi Carlile songs-- but when I heard Adele's cover of Hiding My Heart written by Tim Hanseroth (Guitarist/back up vocals for Brandi Carlile Band) I about had to pull over. I'm pretty sure the people driving around me though I had lost a gripe on reality, or there was a bee in my car because I went mad! She did it full justice!
Well hear it for yourself - This is Brandi singing it.

Beth Hart - Monkeyback
I love Beth Hart! Especially on those days when you want to scream at the top of your lungs, but aren't exactly angry. Her voice is the right level of gravel to satisfy that angry/hurt/full of energy feeling, and the fast paced music is perfect to jump/dance/run around the house to!
Thank you Sunnie Lynn for introducing me to this woman way back in our TA days!

Someone Like You - Adele
This is from Adele's new album. I am in love... I especially love this video because you can see that this song really has an affect on her. That is truly means something. Love. Love. Love. When I first heard this song, I had just told an ex-boyfriend that I was getting married this July. I heard these words, and felt in her voice what was displayed across his face, and what I heard in his voice as he whispered congratulations... I will never forget that.
LYRICS:
I heard that you're settled down.
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
Old friend, why are you so shy?
It ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I'll remember you said:
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
You'd know how the time flies.
Only yesterday was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summery haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over yet.
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I'll remember you said:
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead".
Nothing compares, no worries or cares.
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I'll remember you said:
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I'll remember you said:
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
