Anniversary by Tony Toni Tone

I knew when this song came on that it was going to be my last song. It's longer than my ride home from work at close to 10 minutes. I believe my brother had this album. Pretty much most of the 90's Hip Hop and Rap came from my brother as that is what he mainly listened to.

Top 5 (30 days)

1. Hello by Adele popped up in the top 5 after only 1 day knocking off Stand In The Gap by Petra, they were on the top 5 for 12 days.

Hello by Adele

I mainly know this song from this album because originally she only released it to Spotify and not the whole album. She eventually released the rest of it and I have added a couple of others but I haven't sat down and listened to the whole album.

Hello, it's me

I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet

To go over everything

They say that time's supposed to heal ya

But I ain't done much healing

Hello, can you hear me?

I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be

When we were younger and free

I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet

There's such a difference between us

And a million miles

Hello from the other side

I must've called a thousand times

To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done

But when I call, you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside

At least I can say that I've tried

To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart

But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Hello, how are you?

It's so typical of me to talk about myself, I'm sorry

I hope that you're well

Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happened?

It's no secret that the both of us are running out of time

So hello from the other side

I must've called a thousand times

To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done

But when I call, you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside

At least I can say that I've tried

To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart

But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Oooooh, anymore

Oooooh, anymore

Oooooh, anymore

Anymore

Hello from the other side

I must've called a thousand times

To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done

But when I call, you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside

At least I can say that I've tried

To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart

But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

It Is Finished by Petra

Great song about the day Jesus was crucified. One of my favorites of Petra and of that subject.

This artist and song is listed on the 20+ page.

In the heat of the early morning

On a hill they call the Skull

The roaring of the angry mob had settled to a lull

All eyes were cast upon the man whose hands and feet were bound

They saw him cry in anguish when they heard the hammer pound

They saw the bloody woven thorns with which His head was crowned

They watched the bloody cross of wood be dropped into the ground

The soldiers gambled for His clothes, they watched them win and lose

They saw the sign above His head that said "King of the Jews"

(It is finished) And the sky grew black as the night

(It is finished) And the people scattered in fright

The work had been done, redemption had been won

The war was over without a fight

It is finished

They searched His face for anger, for vengeance in His stare

Instead of eyes that burned with hate a look of love was there

He prayed for their forgiveness and bowed His battered head

And no one knew the meaning of the final words He said

The provision has been made

The foundation has been laid

He paid the ransom due and tore the temple veil in two

And opened up the way for me and you

It is finished

Thank You by Ray Boltz

Great, great song. One of my favorite Christian songs of all time. If you've never heard it, listen to it. I loved his music and went to a few concerts. If you won't want to listen to it, at least read the lyrics.

This album is listed on my Albums Owned page.

This artist is listed on my Concerts Seen page.

I dreamed I went to heaven 

And you were there with me; 

We walked upon the streets of gold 

Beside the crystal sea. 

We heard the angels singing 

Then someone called your name. 

We turned and saw a young man running 

And he was smiling as he came.

And he said, "Friend you may not know me now." 

And then he said, "But wait, 

You used to teach my Sunday School 

When I was only eight. 

And every week you would say a prayer 

Before the class would start. 

And one day when you said that prayer, 

I asked Jesus in my heart."

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am a life that was changed. 

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am so glad you gave.

Then another man stood before you 

And said, "Remember the time 

A missionary came to your church 

And his pictures made you cry. 

You didn't have much money, 

But you gave it anyway. 

Jesus took the gift you gave 

And that's why I'm here today."

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am a life that was changed. 

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am so glad you gave.

One by one they came 

Far as the eye could see. 

Each life somehow touched 

By your generosity. 

Little things that you had done, 

Sacrifices made, 

Unnoticed on the earth 

In heaven, now proclaimed.

And I know up in heaven 

You're not supposed to cry 

But I am almost sure 

There were tears in your eyes. 

As Jesus took your hand 

And you stood before the Lord. 

He said, "My child, look around you. 

Great is your reward."

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am a life that was changed. 

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am so glad you gave.

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am a life that was changed. 

Thank you for giving to the Lord. 

I am so glad you gave.

Top 5 (30 days)

1. Breakaway by Idle Cure continues to move upwards as it moves 1 more spot.

Top 10 (all-time)

1. Obviously, if it's moving up on the 30 days, it's probably also moving up on the all time list. Breakaway by Idle Cure actually moved up 3 spots and now sits at the 6 spot trying to crack the top 5.

We Were Us by Keith Urban & Miranda Lambert

This is the 2nd song off of this album to be placed on this blog and it's the 3rd song from Keith Urban. It's also the 2nd song from Miranda Lambert. You know with those 2 great artists that your going to get a great song.

Rearview crosses

Railroad ties

Oh, Hail Marys

Friday nights

Heartbeat baby

Low-beam lights

God, I miss when you were mine

[Chorus:]

Back when that song was a song

I could sing along without thinkin bout you every time it came on

Every beat, every line, every word, every time

When a road was a road

I could roll on through without wishin that empty seat was you

Money was gas, dreams were dust

Love was fast and we were us

Shotgun sunset

A cool mint kiss

Backseat promise

Breaking it

Floorboard feeling

County lines

God, I miss when you were mine

[Repeat Chorus]

In a sleepy town, just jumping in

Far too young to know that summers end

We were us, we can't go back

It's what it is, but God I miss

[Repeat Chorus]

Every beat, every line, every word, every single time

I just close my eyes and you're ridin shotgun

You and me, baby, on the run

I can feel your heartbeat, baby

Breakaway by Idle Cure

I believe this is the only song I have by Idle Cure on here but it is a great song to jam to in the car. I had this album but it was about the time I stopped listening to Christian music so I'm not sure how much I listened to it, which would be why I didn't really recognize the other songs as much as I did this one.

This album is listed on the Album's Owned page.

Break away,

Ow.

I’m a fool, half insane,

Heard ‘em all, it’s just another name,

I feel good, nothing to hide,

You cast your stone and I step aside,

I used to fight, huh, that’s how I’d play,

Now it’s changed: I just walk away,

Ooh, look in my eyes,

It’s got me hooked, there’s no compromise.

You seem lost, you seem lonely…but don’t be afraid.

Break away – leave behind the old life, whoa,

Break away – a touch of love,

Look around, ch-check it out.

Out on the street to stay alive,

You pack a blade and a .45,

You’re touch enough, so I’ve heard,

Love, to you, is just another word,

Walking the line, playing the odds,

Don’t be fooled, you got to count the cost,

It’s your life; what will you choose?

You’ve won before, but what if you lose?

You seem lost, you seem lonely…but don’t be afraid.

Break away – leave behind the old life, whoa,

Break away – ooh, look around, just check it out.

The prize is just ahead, it’s waiting,

Fight the fire, don’t feed the flame,

Take a chance and break away.

I’m a fool, half insane,

Heard ‘em all, it’s just another name,

I feel good, nothing to hide,

You cast your stone and I step aside.

You seem lost, you seem lonely…but don’t be afraid.

Break away – leave behind the old life, whoa,

Break away – leave behind, ooh, leave it behind,

Ooh, yeah – break away.

Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen

They make the rocking world go round. I always liked this song, not just because it was a little risque back when it came out. I mentioned before that I had the Queen greatest hits growing up and obviously, this song was on it.

Oh you gonna take me home tonight

Oh down beside that red fire light

Oh you gonna let it all hang out

Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round

Hey I was just a skinny lad

Never knew no good from bad

But I knew love before I left my nursery

Left alone with big fat Fanny

She was such a naughty nanny

Heap big woman, you made a bad boy out of me

Hey hey!

I've been singing with my band

Across the water, across the land

I've seen every blue eyed floozy on the way (hey)

But their beauty and their style

Went kind of smooth after a while

Take me to them naughty ladies every time

C'mon!

Oh, won't you take me home tonight?

Oh, down beside your red fire light

Oh, and you give it all you got

Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round

Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round

Hey, listen here

Now I got mortgages and homes

And I got stiffness in the bones

Ain't no beauty queens in this locality (I tell you)

Oh, but I still get my pleasure

Still get my greatest treasure

Heap big woman you done made a big man of me (now get this)

Oh (I know), you gonna take me home tonight (please)

Oh, down beside that red fire light

Oh, you gonna let it all hang out

Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round

Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round

Get on your bikes and ride

Ooh, yeah, oh, yeah, them fat bottomed girls

Fat bottomed girls, yeah, yeah, yeah,

All right

Ride 'em cowboy

Fat bottomed girls

Yes, yes, right.

Get the Party Started by Pink

This is the 3rd song by Pink here and it won't be the last. My wife introduced me to her music and I have added quite a few of her songs here.

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Get this party started on a Saturday night

Everybody's waiting for me to arrive

Sendin' out the message to all of my friends

We'll be looking flashy in my Mercedes Benz

I got lot of style, check my gold diamond rings

I can go for miles if you know what I mean

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Pumping up the volume, breaking down to the beat

Cruisin' through the west side

We'll be checkin' the scene

Boulevard is freakin' as I'm comin' up fast

I'll be burnin' rubber, you'll be kissin' my ass

Pull up to the bumper, get out of the car

License plate says Stunner #1 Superstar

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Get this party started

Making my connection as I enter the room

Everybody's chilling as I set up the groove

Pumpin' up the volume with this brand new beat

Everybody's dancing and they're dancing for me

I'm your operator, you can call anytime

I'll be your connection to the party line

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Get this party started

Get this party started right now

Get this party started

Get this party started

Get this party started right now

Final Days by DC Talk

This is the 2nd song off of this album on this blog. I can't say for sure but I probably put all the songs on this album on here because it was all I listened to at one point.

This album is listed on the Albums Owned page.

This artist is listed on the Concerts Seen page.

This artist is listed on the 20+ club page.

Well I walk through this world livin' day to day

I see the people, hear what they have to say

Take a look at the ethics, morals, and goals

Makin' gods outta men that rock 'n roll

Like Sodom and Gomorrah, this world will fall

A total destruction, destiny of all

Who have mocked the name of Jesus, the Savior and Lord

In the battle of Armageddon and a two-edged sword

Satan in a day he will never forget

When the King hurls him into a bottomless pit

So keep your eyes on the Lord, don't follow human ways

Cause it's written in the Word, these are the final days 

Final days

Change your ways

Final days 

The final days is what my song's about

Words so intense I might have to shout

Some might play hard and say I'm wack

But I'm talkin' about truth not egomaniac

And as long as they listen, they won't be dissin'

Cause rappin' final days is a serious mission

Just so they learn, I will stand stern

I hope my words make ya start to churn

I'm concerned with the life that you're livin' now

Your's ego's so bad that ya can't even bow

To the Master of all, Creator of creation

I'm talkin' bout God no misinterpretation

Rappin' hard for the One who deserves the best

Speakin' rhymes that will try and put your heart to test

Don't stop and stare me down with that b-boy haze

Get busy, cause these are the final days 

Final days

Change your ways

Final days

The words of my rap are not what you think

But so secure I suggest you take 'em to the bank

Or better yet take these words to heart

Don't wait until tomorrow, now's the time to start

I'm not askin' for your money or rappin' for a fee

Think upon the words is my only plea

Cause this song's about to end, your time is runnin' thin

And now that my time is up, it's time for you to begin

To do this job is my only request

A basic rap exam puts MC's to test

Spread these words like a fire ablaze

Cause I'm tellin' ya we're livin' in the final days 

Final days

Change your ways

Final days

It Goes Like This by Thomas Rhett

I don't know much about Thomas Rhett or his music, but obviously, I know this song. I'm sure I was introduced to it by my wife as she listens to all kinds of country.

Hey girl, you make me wanna write a song,

Sit you down, I'll sing it to you all night long,

I've had a melody in my head

Since she walked in here and knocked me dead.

Yeah girl, you make me wanna write a song

And it goes like ooh,

What I wouldn't do

To write my name on your heart,

Get you wrapped in my arms

Baby all around you.

And it goes like hey,

Girl I'm blown away,

Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss,

Yeah it goes like this.

Hey girl, you make me wanna drive you home,

Get you outta here and get you all alone.

I don't know what it is about you, baby,

But I'm all messed up and it might sound crazy,

But you make me wanna write a song.

And it goes like ooh,

What I wouldn't do,

To write my name on your heart,

Get you wrapped in my arms

Baby all around you.

And it goes like hey,

Girl I'm blown away,

Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss,

Yeah it goes like this.

Lookin' at you, lookin' at me that way,

Makes me wanna grab my old guitar and play

Something like ooh,

What I wouldn't do,

To write my name on your heart,

Get you wrapped in my arms

Baby all around you.

And it goes like hey,

Girl I'm blown away,

Yeah it starts with a smile and it ends with an all night long slow kiss,

Yeah it goes like this

And it goes like ooh,

And it goes like hey,

And it ends with a kiss,

Yeah it goes like this.

Gettin' Jiggy Wit It by Will Smith

The 2nd song off the 2nd album by Will Smith here. This one is pretty well known, or at least back then it was. I always respected Will for rapping clean. We all know that I don't mind cussing in songs, look at some of them on here, but that doesn't mean I can't respect the man for doing it that way.

On your mark ready set let's go

Dance floor pro I know you know

I go psycho when my new joint hit

Just can't sit

Got to get jiggy wit it, thats it

Now honey honey come ride

DKNY all up in my eye

You gotta Prada bag with a lot a stuff in it

Give it to your friend let's spin

Everybody lookin' at me

Glancin' the kid

Wish you nig was dancin' the jig

Here with this handsome kid

Ciga-cigar right from Cuba-Cuba

I just bite it

It's for the look I don't light it

Illway the amay on the anceday orflay

Give it up jiggy make it feel like foreplay

Yo my cardio is infinite

What you want to ball with the kid

Watch your step you might fall

Trying to do what I did

Mama-unh mama-unh mama come closa'

In the middle of the club with the rub-a-dub

No love for the haters

Mad cause I got floor seats at the Lakers

See me on the fifty yard line with the Raiders

Met Ali he told me I'm the greatest

I got the fever for the flavor of a crowd pleaser

DJ play another

From the prince of this

Your highness 

Only bad chicks ride in my whips

South to the west to the east to the north

Bought my hits and watch 'em go off a go off

Ah yes yes y'all ya don't stop 

In the winter or the (summertime)

I makes it hot

Gettin jiggy wit 'em

Eight-fifty I.S. if you need a lift

Who's the kid in the drop

Who else Will Smith

Livin' that life some consider a myth

Rock from south street to one two fifth

Women used to tease me

Give it to me now nice and easy

Since I moved up like George and Wheezey

Cream to the maximum I be askin' 'em

Would you like to bounce with the brother that's platinum

Never see Will attackin' 'em

I rather play ball with Shaq and 'em

Flatten 'em

Psyche

Hittin' you thought I took a spill

But I didn't

Trust the lady of my life she hittin'

Hit her with a drop top with the ribbon

Crib for my mom on the outskirts of Philly

You trying to flex on me 

Don't be silly

Gettin jiggy wit it

Na na na na na na na nana

Na na na na nana

Gettin jiggy wit it

Na na na na na na na nana

Na na na na nana

Gettin jiggy wit it

Na na na na na na na nana

Top 5 (30 days)

1. Stand in the Gap by Petra popped back up on the top 5, it got bumped off 5 days ago. It makes it's appearance by knocking off Broken Wings by Mr Mister after 22 days.

Destined To Win by E.T.W.

While I did have this album and possible another of theirs, I mainly like this song because it uses the DeGarmo & Key lyrics to their song which I listened to for awhile before they released this. They even use a little clip of what I assume is actually D&K at the very end of the song. I don't know much about the group but I do know that it stands for End Time Warriors.

This album is listed on my Albums Owned page.

I can't find the lyrics anywhere on the internet, Sorry!

Colors by Ice T

Gangsta rap at it's finest. You can always recognize Ice T's voice, the song came on and I asked my wife if she recognized him and she did. She doesn't listen to rap, at all, and still recognized him. Not that it's a surprise, unless you don't know who it is. IT'S LEMONADE! (love that commercial). Of course, I know the song from the movie, Colors.

Yo Ease let's do this...

I am a nightmare walkin', psychopath talkin'

King of my jungle, just a gangster stalkin'

Livin' life like a firecracker, quick is my fuse

Then dead as a death pack; the colors I choose

Red or Blue, Cuz or Blood, it just don't matter

Sucka die for your life when my shotgun scatters

The gangs of L.A. will never die - just multiply

You see they hit us then we hit them

Then we hit them and they hit us, man

It's like a war, ya know what I'm sayin'

People don't even understand

They don't even know what they dealing with

You wanna get rid of the gangs it's gonna take a lotta work

But people don't understand the size of this

This is no joke man, this is real

You don't know me, fool

You disown me, cool

I don't need your assistance, social persistence

Any problem I got I just put my fist in

My life is violent but violent is life

Peace is a dream, reality is a knife

My colors, my honor, my colors, my all

With my colors upon me one soldier stands tall

Tell me what have you left me, what have I got?

Last night in cold blood my young brother got shot

My homeboy got jacked

My mother's on crack

My sister can't work cause her arms show tracks

Madness insanity, live in profanity

Then some punk claimin' they're understandin' me

Give me a break, what world do you live in

Death is my set, guess my religion

Yo my brother was a gang banger

And all my homeboys bang

I don't know why I do it man, I just do it

I never had much of nothing man

Look at you man, you've got everything going for yourself

And I ain't got nothing man, I've got nothing

I'm living in the ghetto man

Just look at me man, look at me

My pants are saggin', braided hair

Suckas stare but I don't care

My game ain't knowledge, my game's fear

I've no remorse so squares beware

But my true mission is just revenge

You ain't in my set, you ain't my friend

Wear the wrong color your life could end

Homicide's my favorite binge

Listen to me man

No matter whatcha do don't ever join a gang

You don't wanna be in it man

You're just gonna end up in a mix of dead friends and time in jail I

Know, if

I had a chance like you

I would never be in a gang man

But I didn't have a chance

You know I wish I did

I'll just walk like a giant, police defiant

You'll say to stop but I'll say that I can't

My gang's my family, it's all that I have

I'm a star, on the walls is my autograph

You don't like it, so you know where you can go

Cause the streets are my stage and terror's my show

Psycho-analyze tried diagnosin' me, why?

It wasn't your brother that brutally died

But it was mine, so let me define

My territory; don't cross the line

Don't try to act crazy cause that shit don't faze me

If you ran like a punk, it wouldn't amaze me

Cause my colors death

Though we all want peace

But our war won't end

'Till all wars cease

See the wars of the street gangs will always get to me, man

But I don't wanna be down with this situationm man

But I'm in here, if I had something better to do I think I'd do it But right now, I'm just down here boy

I'm trying to get money cause I'm smart

I'm gonna get paid while I'm out here

I'm gonna get that paper, ya know what I'm saying

If I had a chance like you

Maybe I would be in school

But I'm not, I'm out here living day to day surviving

And I'm willing to die for my colors

Yo, please stop cause I want y'all to live

This is Ice-T, peace
