Explosive November

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

These are the words from Katy Perry's hot single "Fireworks" at chart topper ngayon. Parang last year lang, apat na kanta ang nagpapatalbugan sa iTunes noong November; Two is Better than One ni Taylor Swift at ng Boys Lyk Girl, One Less Lonely Girl ni Justin Bieber, Down ni Jay Sean, at New Perspective ng Panic at the Disco.

Now it is November of 2010 at masasabi ko na parang sobrang explosive yata ng mga songs for this month. Kasi last october nagsimula na ngang sumikat ang kanta ni Katy Perry which I mentioned above [Well anyway may kanta ba xa na hindi sumikat for this year?] na sumisikat na ngayong November at hindi malayong mapasama sa top 100 chart ng year end countdown sa UKchart at Billboard.

Tinabunan ni Katy Perry ang iba pang naglabasang sikat na country folk at pop singer ng 2009 considering 2008 siya nagsimula. Dapat nga mas laos siya pero nasan na nga ba si Leighton Meester, Keshia, at Taylor Swift? Matapos ang twiter pix scandal ni Hallie Williams humina na rin ang eksena ng Paramore. I guess we have anough of Twilight soundtrack dose. Buti pa nga si Charice eh namamayagpag. And speaking of Charice na namamayagpag, may isa pang Filipino singer na hataw na hataw ngayong 2010.

He also made this November very explosive with his wit and talent at lalo na sa single niyang "Grenade". I am talking of no other than the Paragon Half Filipino RNB singer na si BRUNO MARS. He is my new pick. My favorite who I waited for the longest time now.

Grabe ang galing nito si Bruno Mars. Early this year he gave us "Beautiful Girls all over the world..." remember that, Nothing On You. Kasam niya dun si BOB na nakasama ni Hallie Williams sa Airplane together with Slim Shady. Later on, sinamahan niya si Travie Macoy na ex ni Katy Perry para kantahin ang famous lines ng "Billionaire". Siya yun baka lang di niyo alam. Pinakilig niya ang mga kababihan with "All She Knows". Muli niya namng sinamahan si BOB sa isnag single kasam rin si Cee Lo noong June lumabas sa Pilipinas, ang The Other Side. Ang ganda nito pero di puamtok sa mga kolehiyala nor sa mga rapper ng Dongalo.

Well, bigla muli siya sumabog in great explosion noong August 15 when the Philipine premiered his most popular solo performance of this year--walang iba kundi--JUST THE WAY YOU ARE. Humakot na ito ng katakut takot na hits sa Youtube at nagkaroon ng halos 100 cover video, kasama na ang cover singers at cover ng guitar drums at piano.

Now he is back this November with another explosive.... ang "Grenade" [his latest single]. He makes me proud as a Filipino. Next to Charice he is the best contemporary singer of the Filipino race. And as always I will post the lyrics of his song........


GRENADE by Bruno Mars

Easy come, easy go
That's just how you live, oh
Take, take, take it all,
But you never give
Should of known you was trouble from the first kiss, Had your eyes wide open -
Why were they open?
Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked, Cause what you don't understand is
I’d catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain, Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby ; But you won't do the same

No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue beat me till I'm numb Tell the devil I said “hey” when you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman,
That's just what you are, yeah,
You’ll smile in my face then rip the breaks out my car
Gave you all I had


And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked Cause what you don't understand is
I’d catch a grenade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain, Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby ; But you won't do the same

If my body was on fire, ooh You’ d watch me burn down in flames You said you loved me you're a liar Cause you never, ever, ever did baby...
But darling I’ll still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I’d jump in front of a train for ya (yeah, yeah , yeah)
You know I'd do anything for ya (yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, oh
I would go through all this pain, Take a bullet straight through my brain,
Yes, I would die for ya baby ; But you won't do the same.
No, you won’t do the same,
You wouldn’t do the same,
Ooh, you’ll never do the same,
No, no, no, no
