She Believe In Me (Cover Version of Kenny Rogers)

Posted by James Nakason Wong Posted on 4:05 PM with No comments

She Believe In Me ...

Even the bloody titanic ship had sunk, I do enjoy my life very much with the Australian xFactor 2016. I managed passed through round #1 and #2 and failed miserable in round #3 (Stage 2) before the bootcamp (Stage 3). I only made it to the stage to meet all the judges, Guy Sebastian , Iggy Azalea , and Adam Lambert. There were three NOs as I was lost in the dance on the song Copacabana and given about 2 weeks to sing this song as they prefer faster beat song. I did learned up my dance move on my own and had a great wonderful time on filming at Sydney. My coordination went KAPUT. I did not practise both singing and dance at the same time. So this is one of the reason some of my pronunciation went kaput and will be screen on TV7 in Australia very soon. So I am not sure if I should come back again as the problems is they select the song they want and it can be very damaging to us. Many failed because of this main reason as I met a few of them similar situation as me.

There are five stages to the competition:

Stage 1: Open auditions^[15] (these auditions decide who will sing in front of the judges)
Stage 2: Judges' auditions
Stage 3: Bootcamp
Stage 4: Super home visits
Stage 5: Live shows (finals)

She Believe In Me

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"She Believes In Me" is a song recorded by American country music singer Kenny Rogers. It was released in April 1979 as the second single from his album The Gambler. The song was written and first recorded by Steve Gibb (not the Steve Gibb who is the son of Barry Gibb) and is the tale of a songwriter who has a beloved who supports him, although he sometimes wonders why.

Rogers was reaching the peak of his career at this time, and "She Believes In Me" became one of his biggest crossover hits in the late spring of 1979, reaching number one on the Billboard Country Singles chart.[1] "She Believes in Me" also peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart, and number one on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.[2] It was also a minor pop hit in Great Britain reaching number 42.[3]

The melody of the chorus also somewhat resembles the chorus of "Lost Without Your Love" by soft rock band Bread (released in 1976), with the chords and structure having some similar properties.

While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes, all the nights can be so long
And it's good when I finally make it home
All alone

While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
And quietly she says, "How was your night?"
And I come to her and say, "It was all right"
And I hold her tight

And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world with my little songs
I was wrong

But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe, on some special night
If my song is right, I will find a way
Find a way

While she lays waiting
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
Then I see my old guitar in the night
Just waiting for me like a secret friend
And there's no end

While she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two
And I'm torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through
God, her love is true

And she believes in me
I'll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday, if she was my girl
I could change the world with my little songs
I was wrong

But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe, on some special night
If my song is right, I will find a way
While she waits, while she waits for me

Sometimes When We Touch (Cover Version of Dan Hill)

Posted by James Nakason Wong Posted on 8:17 PM with No comments

Sometimes When We Touch ..

This is a very old song that I love to sing without really go through the lyrics of the songs. When I was in Sunderland, England I was singing this song on the beach near the light house, I began realized I need to know what I was singing this song for. After a fast searching in my past memories, instantly I knew this song suppose dedicated to one of my very close friend in my college, Taylor's college and we've broke off after I told her we are just FRIEND. She just WALK AWAY and never say a word. Never see her again till today.

"Sometimes When We Touch" is a 1977 ballad written by Dan Hill (lyrics) and Barry Mann (music) on the album Longer Fuse, but was also released as a single in 1978. It was Hill's biggest hit, peaking at # 3 on the United States Billboard Hot 100 and #10 on the Easy Listening chart.^[3] Musicians included Bobby Ogdin (piano), Larrie Londin (drums), Bob Mann (guitar), Don Potter (guitar), Tom Szczesniak (bass). The record was produced by Fred Mollin and Matthew McCauley, recorded at Manta Sound, Toronto.

From: Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia.

Daniel Grafton "Dan" Hill IV^[1]^[2] (born 3 June 1954) is a Canadian pop singer and songwriter. He had two major international hits with his songs "Sometimes When We Touch" and "Can't We Try", a duet with Vonda Shepard, as well as a number of other charting singles in Canada and the United States.

In 2003, the song was used in a GEICO commercial. Manny Pacquiao sang this song[3] on November 3, 2009 showing of the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show. This was Pacquiao's first guest appearance on an American late night TV talk show and his first singing performance on American TV. He would later revive this song on April 2011 as his single and reached number 19 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary top 20 list and has become the third most added song on radio playlists in the US. In August 2012, Dream Theater performed an impromptu short cover in Rio de Janeiro.[4] In May 2014, the song was shown on the Simpsons episode, The Yellow Badge of Cowardge. Despite the track's chart success and enduring cultural influence, it was placed #40 on the list of AOL Radio's 100 Worst Songs Ever.[5]

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie

For who am I to judge you
In what you say or do
I'm only just beginning
To see the real you

[Chorus]
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes
And hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize-fighter
Still trapped within my youth

[Chorus]

At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

[Chorus]

UK xFactor 2013 Bridge Over the Trouble Water (Cover Version of Simon & Garfunkel)

UK xFactor 2013 Bridge Over the Trouble Water

He's got a license to kill...with a song! James Nakasan shows the Judges what he's made of with his rendition of 'Bridge Over Troubled Water'

Sadly I had screwed up my backing track and I was panic and the next came to my mind went BLANK space. I can't remember any more the lyrics. The main reason failed to reach 5th stage is the bloody home office of Eggland. I will try again soon.

"Bridge Over The Trouble Water' Originally sung by George Michael.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Bridge over Troubled Water" is a song by American music duo Simon & Garfunkel. Produced by the duo and Roy Halee, the song was released as the follow-up single to "The Boxer" in January 1970. The song is featured on their fifth studio album, Bridge over Troubled Water (1970). Composed by singer-songwriter Paul Simon, the song is performed on piano and carries the influence of gospel music. The original studio recording employs elements of Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" technique using L.A. session musicians from the Wrecking Crew.^[2]^[3]

It was the last song recorded for their fifth and final album, but the first fully completed.^[4] The song's instrumentation was recorded in California while the duo's vocals were cut in New York.^[4]^[5]^[6]^[7] Simon felt his partner, Art Garfunkel, should sing the song solo, an invitation Garfunkel initially declined.^[8] Session musician Larry Knechtel performs piano on the song, with Joe Osborn playing bass guitar and Hal Blaine closing out the song with drums. The song won five awards at the 13th Annual Grammy Awards in 1971, including Grammy Award for Record of the Year and Song of the Year.

The song became Simon & Garfunkel's biggest hit single, and it is often considered their signature song. It was a number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks, and it also topped the charts in the United Kingdom, Canada, France, and New Zealand. It was a top five hit in eight other countries as well, eventually selling over six million copies worldwide, making it among the best-selling singles. It became one of the most performed songs of the twentieth century, with over 50 artists, among them Elvis Presley and Aretha Franklin, covering the song. It was ranked number 48 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

"Bridge over Troubled Water" was composed by Paul Simon very quickly, so much so that he asked himself, "Where did that come from? It doesn't seem like me." ^[8] The chorus lyrics were partly inspired by Claude Jeter's line "I'll be your bridge over deep water if you trust in me," which Jeter sang with his group, the Swan Silvertones, in the 1958 song "Mary Don't You Weep."^[9] According to gospel producer and historian Anthony Heilbut, Simon later acknowledged his musical debt to Jeter in person, and additionally handed Jeter a check as compensation.^[10] Simon wrote the song initially on guitar but decided to transpose it to the piano, to both better reflect the gospel influence and to suit Garfunkel's voice.^[4]

When Simon showed the song to his partner, he informed him that he felt Garfunkel should sing it by himself, the "white choirboy way."^[8] Garfunkel declined, feeling it was not right for him and believing that Simon should sing it.^[4] Garfunkel reportedly liked Simon's falsetto on the demo and suggested that Simon sing. He and producer Roy Halee also thought the song needed three verses and a 'bigger' sound toward the end. Simon agreed and penned the final verse, though he felt it was less than fully cohesive with the earlier verses.^[11] The final verse was written about Simon's then-wife Peggy Harper, who had noticed her first gray hairs ("Sail on, silvergirl").^[12]^[13] It does not refer to a drug abuser's hypodermic needle, as is sometimes claimed.^[14] The verse was Garfunkel's idea, and Simon has never cared for it.^[15]

"Bridge over Troubled Water" was the final track to be recorded but the first one fully completed, with an additional two weeks of post-production.^[4] Simon initially composed the song in G major, but arranger and composer Jimmie Haskell transposed the song to E-flat major to suit Garfunkel's voice.^[16] The song was recorded in California, to make it easier for Garfunkel to go to Mexico to film Catch-22.^[7] Simon wanted a gospel piano sound, and so he hired session musician Larry Knechtel. The song was initially two verses long, but Garfunkel felt the song was too short, and asked Knechtel to play a third verse, to which Simon would write more lyrics. Joe Osborn played the two bass guitars, one high and the other low. A horn section rounded off the song. The drums were played by Hal Blaine in an echo chamber to achieve a hall effect and Los Angeles session percussionist Gary Coleman played the vibraphone. Due to a series of factors, the duo had to work on a new tape; an arranger falsely labeled the song as "Like a Pitcher of Water", wrote Garfunkel's name incorrectly and the string part was unsatisfactory.^[17]

Simon and Garfunkel then returned to New York to record the vocals.^[18]^[5]^[4] The vocal style in "Bridge over Troubled Water" was inspired by Phil Spector's technique in "Old Man River" by The Righteous Brothers.^[19] After two months the song was finalized. Simon himself admitted that it sounded like the Beatles' "Let It Be", stating in a Rolling Stone interview: "They are very similar songs, certainly in instrumentation ..."^[20]

As their relations frayed preceding their 1970 breakup, Simon began to feel jealous that he allowed Garfunkel to sing it solo:

He felt I should have done it, and many times on a stage, though, when I'd be sitting off to the side and Larry Knechtel would be playing the piano and Artie would be singing "Bridge", people would stomp and cheer when it was over, and I would think, "That's my song, man..."^[8]

The Song Lyrics taken from Wikia

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all

I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you

I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on, Silver Girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way

See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
