Hidden Away - Josh Groban

Over mountains and sky blue seas
On great circles, will you watch for me?
The sweetest feeling I've got inside
I just can't wait to get lost in your eyes

And all these words that you meant to say
Held in silence day after day
Words of kindness that our poor hearts crave
Please, don't keep them hidden away

Sing it out so I can finally breathe in
I can take in all the same
Holding out for something I believe in
All I really need today

I want to free your heart, I want to see your heart
Please, don't keep your heart hidden away

You're a wonder, how bright you shine
A flickered candle in a short lifetime
A secret dreamer that never shows
If no one sees you then nobody knows

And all these words you were meant to say
Held in silence day after day
Words of kindness that our poor hearts crave
Please, don't keep them hidden away

Sing it out so I can finally breathe in
I can take in all the same
Reaching out for someone I believe in
All I really need today

I want to feel your love, will you reveal your love?
Please, don't keep your love hidden away
I want to free your heart, I want to see your heart
Please, don't keep your heart hidden away

Kind of Peace - Faithless featuring Cat Power

Being here in the darkness, starless sky
It's quieter than a church before the crowds arrive
And the world is mine
And no one else sees with my thanks and love in my thoughts
And wishes to give and to ask
It's a kind of peace

It's a kind of peace
It's a kind of peace
It's a kind of peace
With the years doors have been locked and windows closed
And the things I'm sure I knew are no longer due
But I see comfort in my home in my heart
To make a kind of peace
It's a kind of peace

And above me
If there is nothing and no one knew I really care
It's just a now, a now I prefer
Not the future and not the past
So put the chairs to one side and let us dance
It's a strange kind of peace
It's a kind of peace
It's a strange kind of peace
It's a kind of peace

Being here in the darkness, starless sky
It's quieter than a church before the crowds arrive
And the world is mine
And no one else sees with my thanks and love in my thoughts
And wishes to give and to ask
It's a kind of peace

It's a kind of peace

Bye bye sydney earphones

Finally, it died. First, the right side went. Then now the left. Thank you for your hard work!

Earphones update

I still have quite a number of earphones/headphones that I use often. The last update was about a year back HERE so I guess it's time to refresh the list!

3. Still loving this

4. My running buddy

5. Killed quite a number of Apple earphones along the way.

6. Latest kid in town. Received this sporty Phillips earphones as a gift and just started using it. Using it for commute on public transport.

Let's Make It Rain - Colbie Caillat

Nice song, live version but sound system ain't that fantastic.

I don't care what they say
Cause I have seen when we run we make it rain
Let's keep going for miles
Playin under the stormy darkened skies
Can you be mine?

Push me to the wall let them see baby I don't care at all
I'm not letting this go
Like a flower breaking through we've grown
Together now

I don't care what they say cause I have seen when we run we make it rain
There's nothing better than this
I'll keep wanting you for just one more kiss
So make it rain

When the world makes me tired, and my mind feels
Like it was set on fire, you look at me and smile,
With your brown eyes you call my heart and
I can breath again.

I don't care what they say cause I have seen when we run we make it rain
There's nothing better than this
I'll keep wanting you for just one more kiss
So make it rain

I've waited for you to come
Maybe this is not the right time
Maybe we'll hold off for just a little while
Until you're mine

I don't care what they say
I have seen when we run we make it rain
There's nothing better than this
I'll keep wanting you for just one more kiss
Can you be mine?

Cause I don't care what they say
Cause I have seen when we run we make it rain
There's nothing better than this
I'll keep wanting you for just one last kiss
Can you be mine?
Can you be mine?
Can you be mine?
Ohh now you're mine

Distance - Christina Perri (feat Jason Mraz)

Catchy tune! Enjoy the duet.



The sun is filling up the room, and I can hear you dreaming.
Do you feel the way I do? Right now.
I wish we would just give up, 'cause the best part is falling.
Call it anything but love.

And I will make sure to keep my distance.
Say I love you when you're not listening.
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

Please don't stand so close to me;
I'm having trouble breathing.
I'm afraid of what you'll see right now.
I give you everything I am, all my broken heartbeats, until I know you'll understand.

And I will make sure to keep my distance.
Say I love you when you're not listening.
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

And I keep waiting for you to take me.
You keep waiting to save what we have.

So I'll make sure to keep my distance.
Say I love you when you're not listening.
And how long can we keep this up, up, up?

 Make sure to keep my distance.
Say I love you when you're not listening.
How long 'till we call this love, love, love?

Lullaby - One Republic

Days feel harder, night grows longer
Summer says its goodbyes
Darkness covers, we find shelter
Our own place to hide

Oh as the light goes out
Thoughts turn to angels on the run
Oh as the night comes in
Dreams start their drifting and you hear a lullaby
Lullaby
You and I

Trees touch windows say their hellos
Hear this house as it settles in
Worry slips away it don't know your name
It don't know where to find us

Oh as the light goes out
Thoughts turn to angels on the run
Oh as the night comes in
Dreams start their drifting and you hear a lullaby
A lullaby
You and I, you and I 

Kiddo is 3!

Happy birthday Kiddo!
