Sit Tight Sunday #10: Tattoos by Jason Derulo

Sit Tight Sunday is a weekly feature on my blog for me to showcase upcoming music. The original post can be found here.



Genres: Pop
Released: 20 September 2013
Warner Bros, Record Inc.




I mean ~Jason Derulo~. Tattoos will be his third studio album. Songs like Talk Dirty and The Other Side  will be on this album which makes me double excited because I love those songs. Only just over a week until the album comes out. I love the cover art as well. I think it looks really cool. A mix between a photograph and an illustration. It's really artistic. Hopefully the album will be as good as the art makes it look.

Mini Book Reviews: Eleanor & Park + Walking Disaster

Eleanor & Park Rainbow Rowell

Set over the course of one school year in 1986, ELEANOR AND PARK is the story of two star-crossed misfits – smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. When Eleanor meets Park, you’ll remember your own first love – and just how hard it pulled you under.



As you can see, Eleanor and Park was basically perfect. Almost. An amazing love story with the most spectacular and real characters ever. I don't usually like books set in the 80's but this blew my mind away. The plot pace wasn't perfect but it was still super fast. Eleanor and Park is another one of those books where you kind of know how it's going to end but you still desperately wish it won't happen. Without spoiling, the ending was the worst part for me. I felt like it just, well, it didn't end.
Favourite quotes:
"Paul was the one who'd taught Eleanor to say 'Asian' and not 'oriental'."
"He didn't have dimples exactly, but the sides on his face folded in on themselves, and his eyes almost disappeared."
"Park's eyes got wide. Well, sort of wide."
"'Nobody thinks Asian guys are hot,' Park said finally." <--- Um, I THINK ASIAN GUYS ARE SEXY.

Walking Disaster Jamie McGuire
Can you love someone too much? Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder. In Walking Disaster, the life of Travis is full of fast women, underground gambling, and violence. But just when he thinks he is invincible, Abby Abernathy brings him to his knees. Every story has two sides. In Beautiful Disaster, Abby had her say. Now it’s time to see the story through Travis’s eyes.


So basically, I hated Abby in the first book and then I read this book and I hated her even more. She is such a !@#$%^& !@#$% to Travis. Like seriously, how the !@#$ did he fall in love with her? To a point, I get that she's 'diferent' but she doesn't have to be a bitch. But aside from that, I did kind of enjoy this book. I read it in audio format which was a nice change for me. Since it's basically Beautiful Disaster but in Travis' point of view, it was really predictable but there were a few things that are quite funny that you didn't know from Abby's point of view.

Lawson - Juliet lyrics

Here Is Lawson - Juliet lyrics, You can read and save to your media storage for free.

Juliet lyrics by Lawson.

People stop to turn and stare
Everywhere she goes
Dollar signs and crimson hair
She will steal your soul
Set aside some billionaires
All she wants is gold
She is straight up rock and roll
I’m telling you she knows

She know oh oh oh ee oh oh [x2]

Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet what you do to me
The way she does it is criminal
Physical and it’s killing me
Nothing on in these allegations
She know oh oh oh ee oh oh
Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet you were hard to me

Pulls you with her perfect smile
Pretty soon you’re done
One more sock compares the price
Thinking you’re the one
Many men have tried and failed
Captured by her bold
Stay away from Juliet
You will lose control

She know oh oh oh ee oh oh [x2]

Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet what you do to me
The way she does it is criminal
Physical and it’s killing me
Nothing on in these allegations
She know oh oh oh ee oh oh
Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet you were hard to me

She know oh oh oh ee oh oh [x4]
1 2 3 4

Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet what you do to me
The way she does it is criminal
Physical and it’s killing me
Nothing on in these allegations
She know oh oh oh ee oh oh
Nobody does it like Juliet
Juliet you were hard to me

Nelly - Heaven lyrics New 2013

Here Is Nelly - Heaven lyrics, You can read and save to your media storage for free

Nelly Heaven is a new official single from the rapper's latest studio album "M.O". "Heaven" features UK singer-songwriter Daley.

[Intro: Daley]
Said it feel
It feels like heaven

[Verse: Nelly]
Take it to the heaven, take it to the floor
This feeling heaven-sent
Every single me and you woke
10 bottles and up, here we living up
Fly but the clouds you’ll never get stuck
And you can take your take your time, my intentions you’ll handle
So said do you see? And got me seeing stars tangled
And I’m going for the Superbowl field goal
I know you feeling it right, hot lookin tonight
It ain’t no stopping when we poppin, girlfriend go in
Yea we got high all because she touchin and rubbin
Plus above it I know you gotta be sick
But your light shine baby every time okay

[Hook: Daley]
It feels (it feels good)
It feels like heaven
And I don’t wanna go there girl so soon
So won’t you please come down here
It feels like heaven!

[Verse: Nelly]
Don’t hold your breath, don’t listen
Feel like you going through hell – it’s just a visit
Feel everything you going through you’re on your own
Take a shot of the silver shot, thank God for Patrone
Thank God for the millionaires
You can separate the boys from the million now ‘cus you see your virtue
You knowin your comfort and it feels like heaven
Even though we wasn’t gonna work your body
Meet me up and down to the town
Baby I just wanna feel right here right now
One time, one choice
Baby it’s gonna fall
I hope to God never let you go
It feels like

[Hook: Daley]
It feels (it feels good)
It feels like heaven
And I don’t wanna go there girl so soon
So won’t you please come down here
It feels like heaven!

Sunshine every time we move
It feels like heaven!
Go angel and our love will never leave and it will live on
It feels like (go ahead still spit it so we hit it on time)
It feels like heaven
No breaking lights, baby go hard it’s fine

[Verse: Nelly]
Never hate the ladies and make the babies
Girl you could be anything you want
And you deserve it, I know you’re worth it
Never ever let the feeling go
Never hate the ladies and make the babies
Girl you could be anything you want
Now put your hands up high, ‘cus you’re going for a ride
As the feeling of love keep your feelings inside

[Hook: Daley and Nelly]
It feels (it feels good)
It feels like heaven
And I don’t wanna go there girl so soon
So won’t you please come down here
It feels like heaven!

It feels like
It feels… it feels like
(No breaking lights, baby go hard it’s fine)

Music Review: Damaged Lady by KARA



Genres: Dance, Pop, K-Pop
Members: Gyuri, Seungyeon, Hara, Nicole, Jiyoung
Released: 2 September 2013
℗ DSP 미디어


Woohoo! KARA is back. I've been loving the past few albums and I was eagerly anticipating their comeback. Now they're finally here with their new album Full Bloom and their single Damaged Lady. Before I begin the review of the song, I just wanted to take a moment to say that they looked absolutely gorgeous in the music video!

Damaged Lady definitely isn't my favourite song from KARA although I have to admit, it's still really catchy. The tempo for me seems a bit awkward. It would've sounded better either a bit slower or a bit faster but even so, I did like it. The melody isn't as unique as Pandora was but like the tempo, I still find it catchy. One reason why I love KARA is because they can actually sing. Of course they're beautiful as well but they're voices sound spectacular together and separately. The reason why I gave the vocals a four is because of the production. I know that this isn't their fault, but I hated that the vocals sounded a bit quiet compared to the melody. I did however love the electric guitar used in the song along with all the other layers of music.

The lyrics aren't really cute or super meaningful but I loved them because they were real. They are about someone who has just come out of a relationship and hates being surrounded by couples. "Yes I’m not nice, a damaged lady," really portrays how the person would actually be feeling. My favourite lines when translated to English:
"The sky’s not on my side, why so harsh?"
"What an embarrassing day for me
Crying all over now
The sky is too bright
I can’t raise my head."

Overall, Damaged Lady is a really catchy song that I'd listen to over and over. Definitely check out the music video. Plus, just a side note, I didn't do a Music Of August but I'll try make it up next month.

Books Of August 2013!

Hello to my precious viewers. Today, I've come to tell you what I've read in August! Now last month, I read a lot less that I have previously but either way, I'm happy with my six books! Even though Bout Of Books was this month, the books I read were super long and kind of slow paced which is why I didn't get to read to much. But I'll stop with the excuses and I'll just say I've been a bit lazy with my reading lately. I did however write quite a few reviews! I'm ready for September though. Spring, come at me. Yes, it's Spring where I live down under. Happy Fall/Autumn to all you Northern Hemispherers!
