Long Live

This new song on Taylor Swift's new album 'Speak Now' is my 2011 song... I love it the lyrics are awesome and the beat is awesome... and I am not the biggest Taylor Swift fan but this song is pretty radical. So whats it about...

“This song is about my band and my producer and all the people who have helped build this brick by brick. The fans, the people who I feel are in it together. It talks about the triumphant moments that we’ve had in the last two years. I’ve had a lot of different kinds of moments in the past two years but there’s been a lot of triumphant ones where we just jump up and down and dance like we don’t care how we’re dancing and just scream at the top of our lungs ‘how’s this happening?’ and I feel very lucky to even have had one of those moments none the less all the ones that I got to have. I wrote a song about how I feel reflecting on it. This song for me is like looking at a photo album of all the award shows and all the stadium shows and all the hands in the air in the crowd. It’s sort of the first love song I’ve written to my team.”

— Taylor Swift talking about Long Live

So have a listen. The lyrics are here below:

I said remember this moment, in the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds and stands went wild
We were the Kings and the Queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

I said remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there
On the side-lines wishing for right now
We are the Kings and the Queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming this is absurd
Cause for a moment a band of thieves
In ripped up jeans got to rule the world

Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall

Will you take a moment, promise me this
That you'll stand by me forever
But if god forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children some day
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine

Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Singing, long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders

One day we will be remembered

HARRY POTTER shows his LOVE

tEtRiS fRiEnDs

Okay here is a serious addiction I have... it got me through the HSC and the first year of uni and fills procrastination sessions whilst exercising my fingers. It is seriously addictive! I love it... although I go through fazes of playing almost 24/7 (bit of hyperbole) to not playing for weeks on end... I am 'fuzzy91' on Tetris and my avatar is a tetris block sheep! The best sight to play Tetris on is....

tetrisfriends.com

You can play all kinds of Tetris games: Sprint, Ultra, Marathon, Survival, Multiplayer, live, Old School and sooo much more! It is ABSOLUTELY, GOBBSMACKINGLY, FLIPPIN' AWESOME!! I joined when the sight began and it was epic you get tokens and you can buy things and blah... The disappointing thing is that over time that have increased advertising making you wait longer for games to load and now missions and some things you hafta buy... which really sucks! PAYING FOR TETRIS SUCKS!!! However the daily lottery is pretty rad... okay so you probably are like what the hell?!!!! WELL GO SIGN UP ITS AWESOME!!!

Magnum Egos

Magnum Egos are soooo AWESOME!!!! I love them! Favourite ice-cream! This stinking hot weather at the moment really makes me crave them.... ice-cream coated in a thin layer of chocolate then covered in thick oozing caramel sealed by a chocolate coat! Its just awesome!!!! Anyways tonight I am trying the magnum temptation... and well its not bad... rich to be sure... but I will remain a faithful follower of the magnum ego for it is divine in taste and appearance not to mention bigger and cheaper!!!! $4.40 for the magnum temptation!!! thats ridiculous!!!!!! silly silly silly!!! I also do not mind the magnum gold... it is simple and delicious... the honeycomb ice-cream centre is delightful however the exterior is not as great whilst nice it has a bitof a cardboard taste and and vanilla taste is n0t completely justified. Yum, Yum, Yum I could eat a sink full of magnum!!!! Anyways that is all tonight! so do yourself a favor and go out and get yourself a magnum ego cause if you have not had one you have no idea what you are missing out on!!!

ABC PENDULUM Remix

On Youtube people seem to be so critical of this remix but I reckon its awesome... I mean seriously its brilliant... it may be an original idea something that anyone could do but so are most brilliant ideas. The reason people get so crappy and stupid about ideas like this is cause they didn't do them themselves or think of it... its all about who does it first and every other sour sulk should just shutup and suck it up... so please listen and enjoy...

So it is February and summer has decided to kick in!!! Summer has been mostly rainy, cold and miserable with floods everywhere particularly in Queensland. In fact I thought summer had just slept through and decided not to show its unbearable heat BUT NO! Here I lie in bed boiling hot even with the air conditioner on drenched in my own sweat! (sorry but its true!).

Oh summer how I wish you have never come... whats worse is the prediction that it will stay like this!!! gah!!! save me! And I go back to uni soon to a top floor room that only has a flimsy fan!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is really all I can say. :(

On another note I saw the 'King's Speech' and just would like to say how AWESOME IT WAS! Brilliant film! Brilliant cast! JUST BLOODY BRILLIANT!!! Colin Firth did a fine performance... more than fine terrific actually!! I will be so annoyed if he does not get best actor at the oscars!!!

Well I think that that will be all tonight I will resume my position in bed and hopefully get some sleep!!!!!

I have in my possession the dreaded text list for semester One 2011!!!!
