Aunties Rock!!

Yeah! Yeah! I know I am not acting my age. In my head, I am still back in school during my Assunta days (class of 82/83) when I had my first exposure to hard rock and heavy metal during of all things, Bible Study. Satan found his way to one of the flock muahahaha!!

If you are curious, you can read about it here.

To my regular baking and cooking kakis, apologies I don't have any new material at the moment. I hope to cook and bake up a storm this weekend and get back to my normal postings.

In the meantime, today I shall blog about the awesome CD that I won recently from SK. This is my second time bagging a personalized CD. It was worth the effort spamming SK's blog for this one of a kind compilation.

Aunties Rock!! What kind of corny CD title is that? Well, SK made us give the CD a title and I could not proceed without one. So I just wrote what came to my mind. I'm an auntie and I love rock (including those that sparkle and those that decorate the garden).

My prize arrived on 02-02-2015 by Poslaju. Poslaju let me down a few times by not living up to their "dijamin sampai hari esok" tagline. Those times I wanted to scream at them "tiada esok bagi mu!!!" but who am I? Both times when I received SK's gift, my faith in our National Courier was renewed. This was inside the package.

The lovely green CD.

Chinese New Year Card.

Eh, what's this?

Oh! Cardholder and keyholder! Both in auspicious red color.

This year SK added 3 more features that were not present last year namely lyrics and video links for each track and a medley of the tracks. Wow! I wonder what is in store next year, eh?

Since RG did a post on his CD complete with videos of his chosen songs (and bonus tracks), I shall do a copycat.

This is my track listing. The first 6 tracks are not exactly heavy metal/rock. I'm expanding my horizons and exploring other sounds, so to speak.

Aunties Rock!! Phong Hong

Let Me Go
Avril Lavigne feat. Chad Kroeger

Love that once hung on the wall
Used to mean something
But now it means nothing
The echoes are gone in the hall
But I still remember, the pain of December

Oh, there isn't one thing left you could say
I'm sorry it's too late

I'm breaking free from these memories
Gotta let it go, just let it go
I've said goodbye
Set it all on fire
Gotta let it go, just let it go

You came back to find I was gone
And that place is empty
Like the hole that was left in me
Like we were nothing at all
It's not that you meant to me
Thought we were meant to be

Oh, there isn't one thing left you could say
I'm sorry it's too late

I'm breaking free from these memories
Gotta let it go, just let it go
I've said goodbye
Set it all on fire
Gotta let it go, just let it go

I let it go, and now I know
A brand new life, down this road

Where it's right, you always know
So this time, I won't let go

There's only one thing left here to say
Love's never too late

I've broken free from these memories
I've let it go, I've let it go
And two goodbyes, lend you this new life
Don't let me go, don't let me go

Don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go

Won't let you go, don't let me go
Won't let you go, don't let me go
Won't let you go, don't let me go
Won't let you go, don't let me go

Boom Clap
Charli XCX

Boom boom boom clap

You're picture perfect blue
Sunbathing on the moon
Stars shining as your bones illuminate
First kiss just like a drug
Under your influence
You take me over you're the magic in my veins
This must be love

[Chorus]
Boom clap
The sound of my heart
The beat goes on and on and on and on and
Boom clap
You make me feel good
Come on to me come on to me now
Boom clap
The sound of my heart
The beat goes on and on and on and on and
Boom clap
You make me feel good
Come on to me come on to me now

No silver or no gold
Could dress me up so good
You're the glitter in the darkness of my world
Just tell me what to do
I'll fall right into you
Going under cast a spell just say the word
I feel your love

Repeat [Chorus]

You are the light and I will follow
You let me lose my shadow
You are the sun the glowing halo
And you keep burning me up with all of your love

Repeat [Chorus] twice

In Ruins
Fol Chen

Well the bonfires are blocking the street tonight
Well I don't mind*
Phones down, but you got a flare
So meet me at the checkpoint
And you can take me dancing tonight

Looking around the streets tonight
Everything's in ruins
You look good by siren light
Baby what you doing

Looking around the streets tonight
Everything's in ruins
You look good by siren light
Baby what you doing

There's a monument that they say they'll build
To the way things were but we can't return
We can slip through the holes
And the stories they told

Take a walk through the ash and the acid rain
I don't care if the germs and the books
Eat our brains
All I want is to see your face again

Looking around the streets tonight
Everything's in ruins
You look good by siren light
Baby what you doing

Looking around the streets tonight
Everything's in ruins

You look good by siren light
Baby what you doing

Fame
Santigold

We ain't got no name
No, we ain't got no name
We're rough I understand
'Cause there's status here to claim.
Want it in my hand
Don't want it in my head.
Searching for a win and the battle's on the way.
Hustle make you high, high!
Hustle make you low.
Say I want, say I want
What I want they'll never know
Hustle make you high, high!
Hustle make you low
All or none. All or none.
All I got will make you go.
Always still longing.
We don't want the fame.
Oh, we want the fame.
All the same. We're all the same.
We don't want the fame.
We don't want the fame.
We don't got no shame.
No, we don't got no shame.
And look we got a plan
Say we never play that game.
Keep our eyes in the sand
So our hearts can't be mislead.
We're herd in through their lane
Holding close to what we said.
Hustle make you high, high!
Hustle get you low.
Here it come. Hold it tight.
Somehow we still let it go.

Hustle make you high, high!
Hustle get you low.
No, I don't want. No, I don't want.
Maybe just a little blow.
Always still longing.
We don't want the fame.
Oh, we want the fame.
All the same. We're all the same.
We don't want the fame.
We don't want the fame.
Oh, we really want the same you and I down low.
Oh, we really want the fame fame!
Oh, we really want the same you and I how low.
Low, are we gon' go for fame fame!
Always still longing.
We don't want the fame.
Oh, we want the fame.
All the same. We're all the same.
We don't want the fame.

I need your loving, loving, I need it now
When I'm without you, I'm something weak
You got me begging
Begging, I'm on my knees1

I don't wanna be needing your love
I just wanna be deep in your love
And it's killing me when you're away
Ooh, baby,

I just wanna be there where you are
And I gotta get one little taste

[Chorus]
Your sugar. Yes, please
Won't you come and put it down on me
I'm right here, 'cause I need
Little love and little sympathy
Yeah you show me good loving
Make it alright
Need a little sweetness in my life
Your sugar. Yes, please
Won't you come and put it down on me

My broken pieces, you pick them up
Don't leave me hanging, hanging
Come give me some
When I'm without ya, I'm so insecure
You are the one thing
The one thing, I'm living for

I don't wanna be needing your love

I just wanna be deep in your love
And it's killing me when you're away
Ooh, baby,
'Cause I really don't care where you are
I just wanna be there where you are
And I gotta get one little taste

I want that red velvet, I want that sugar sweet
Don't let nobody touch it
Unless that somebody's me
I gotta be a man, There ain't no other way

I don't gotta be afraid
Don't give all that shy shit
No make up on, that's my

Fall Out Boys

They say we are what we are,
But we don't have to be,
I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way,
I'll be the watcher (watcher) of the eternal flame,
I'll be the guard dog of all your favorite dreams,

(Ooh)
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass)
(Ooh)
I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long,
And live with me forever now,
You pull the blackout curtains down,
Just not for long, for long,
We could be immor- immortals,
Immor- immortals,
Immor- immortals,
Immor- immortals,

Sometimes the only pay off for having any faith,
Is when it's tested again and again everyday,
I'm still comparing your past to my future,
It might be your wound but they're my sutures,

I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass)

I try to picture me without you but I can't

In God we trust or the CIA?
Standing on the edge of a revolution

Revolution, revolution, revolution

No, we won't give up, we won't go away
'Cause we're not about to live in this mass delusion
No, we don't wanna hear another word you say
'Cause we know they're all depending on mass confusion
No, we can't turn back, we can't turn away
'Cause it's time we all relied on the last solution
No, we won't lay down and accept this fate
'Cause we're standing on the edge of a revolution

Wall Street, common thief
When they get caught they all go free
A brand new yacht and a finders fee

Wake up my baby still look amazing with no make-up
Damn it I knew the second that you came up
From underneath the covers say
I wanna meet your mother
Your daddy, your sister and your brother
One week, the time it took you
To tell me that you love me
But darling my shit moved across the country
And now we're buying diamonds
Said it's only twenty karats
It can't be that hard to find it baby

Your touch has made me a believer
Your love is all I ever needed
And she's the only one I'd follow for eternity
She's got me runnin' round and round

[Chorus]
She tastes like the sunshine kissing me
Even sweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round
She taste like the sunshine kissing me
Even sweeter than a honey on a bumblebee
She said honey if you want you can come with me
She's got me runnin' round and round

Can't imagine the two ain't having fun yet
Baby maybe just wait 'cause I ain't drunk yet
As soon as I looked over man
Way to sugar coated you were busy motorboatin'
On that blonde girl

Keep up with what you're doing
Ain't nothing wrong girl
Looks like we got another come along girl
If you ain't afraid to try it
You know we'll be flying private
As long as I can be the pilot baby

Your love is all I ever needed

He went by Jim
A gangster wannabe ya baby that was him
He stole his uncle’s 44 last Friday night
Said if I wanted in
We’d have to plan this thing just right
We’ll need the gloves
We’ll need the bags a couple masks
We’ll need to steal a car with windows tinted black
He picked the nearest bank on Main and 17th
We wrote down every line
From every movie that we’d seen

Screamin’

This is a robbery now get down on the floor
We’re here for all the shit
That you don’t need no more (yeah)
We want your cash open the safe
Get off your phone
Don’t be a hero and you might just make it home

Get ‘em up then get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get ‘em up then get down
Reach for the sky
Then go ahead and kiss the ground
Get ‘em up.
Get ‘em get ‘em up

Drove past the bank a dozen times this afternoon
The only parking spot was half a block away
Gave us time to practice just exactly what to say

Repeat [Chorus]

The only thing I wish that one of us had known
That it was Sunday
And the god damn bank was closed
Too bad we didn’t see the cops across the street
We dropped our guns and tried to run
And there went all our dreams of

Running further from whats right

I wanna rise today and change this world
Yeah, oh yeah
Oh, wont you rise today and change this world?

The sun is beating down
Are we ever gonna change?
Can we stop the blood from running?

Hope we find a better way
Before we find were left with nothing

For every life that's taken
So much love is wasted

So wont you rise today and change this world?

Only love can set it right

This world, if only peace would never die

The Light
Disturbed

Like an unsung melody
The truth is waiting there for you to find it
It's not a blight, but a remedy
A clear reminder of how it began
Deep inside your memory
Turned away as you struggled to find it
You heard the call as you walked away
A voice of calm from within the silence
And for what seemed an eternity
You're waiting, hoping it would call out again
You heard the shadow reckoning
Then your fears seemed to keep you blinded
You held your guard as you walked away

When you think all is forsaken
Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)
You need never feel broken again
Sometimes darkness can show you the light

An unforgivable tragedy
The answer isn't' where you think you'd find it
Prepare yourself for the reckoning
For when your world seems to crumble again
Don't be afraid, don't turn away
You're the one who can redefine it
Don't let hope become a memory
Let the shadow permeate your mind and
Reveal the thoughts that were tucked away
So that the door can be opened again
Within your darkest memories
Lies the answer if you dare to find it
Don't let hope become a memory 

When you think all is forsaken
Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)
You need never feel broken again
Sometimes darkness can show you the light

Sickening, weakening
Don't let another somber pariah consume your soul
You need strengthening, toughening
It takes an inner dark
To rekindle the fire burning in you
Ignite the fire within you

When you think all is forsaken
Listen to me now (all is not forsaken)
You need never feel broken again
Sometimes darkness can show you the light

Don't ignore, listen to me now (all is not forsaken)
You need never feel broken again
Sometimes darkness
Can show you the light
