saturday afternoons

one of the few songs that really makes my day..it reminds me of those weekend afternoons during my college days when my girlfriends and i would gather at the balcony of our apartment..

memories of our favorite music, girltalks, paintings, love stories, iced tea, cookies, laughters, nail polish, broken hearts, novels, artworks, and cameras..we love bands and dancing, but we're not much into bar hopping..we have a very simple idea of fun..that is strengthening the friendship bond by spending quality time with each other..

i really miss those times..because way back then, they always made me feel secured..those bonding sessions gave us an optimistic vibe..that college days won't seem that tough because we'll always have each other no matter what..

this song also reminds me of being carefree girl..loving the wind and smiling from the heart..

check it out, you might like it too.. =)


Put Your Records On (Corinne Bailey Rae)

Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don't need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.

Maybe sometimes, we've got it wrong, but it's alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don't you hesitate.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the roadside,
(just relax, just relax)
Don't you let those other boys fool you,
Got to love that afro hair do.

Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it's alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don't you think it's strange?

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.

'Twas more than I could take, pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don't even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to.

Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.

Oh, you're gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
