my overshare of the day

so this morning, tamia was on the steve harvey radio show. wow!!! i forgot how vicious her pipes were/are! omg! she did some old cuts (a capella) and some snippits from a few tracks on her new album (out today). AMAZING to say the least. now, again, the performance was a capella so i don't know what the entire scope of arrangement is like on the album. but, from what i heard, i think imma get it today. itunes... swipe my shit! lol

she sang a verse from a song called "me" and i was in my car crying like a damn baby :'( i could just relate to the lyrics (i guess) and her voice is soooo amazing. folks like her and amel always shock me when i revisit their stuff. i guess it's because they are so overlooked by the mainstream most of the time for the beyonces and (non-singing-ass) ashantis/ciaras. if you ever really listen to tamia or amel or jill... i mean REALLY listen... they are vocal powerhouses! especially live. like spine-tingly vocalists. at least, i enjoy them :\

kai... you got two cents? am i off base here?

any who... you guys sure have been silent out there lately. anything new? what's good? any new year's eve plans to write home about? do tell. else... screw you all :p (j/k... sort of...)

~Love was a former owner, but quiet is renting our house
It seizes my lips from speaking, but forms a sarcastic smile
Suspense now raised one of your eyebrows
You ask me if there's someone else
I replied yes, hell yes
You asked me if it's another man, I said no
You laughed and say is it a woman, I say yeah
Surprisingly you asked for honey's name

And her name is me,
And she loves me more than you'll ever know
And I finally see that loving you and loving me
Just don't seem to work at all
So patiently, she's waiting on me to tell you
That she needs love
And to choose between you two, boy you know
If I have to choose, I choose me

And she told me to tell you to never to hurt me again
Cuz if you haven't heard she's a bad chick
Even though I haven't been, no
Yet and still you try and test me by raisin' an angry hand
Put it down, put it down
I'm leavin don't try and stop me, (no)
I'm late and she is waiting, (yes)
My love for me is too much so I can't stay

And her name is me,
And she loves me more than you'll ever know
And I finally see that loving you and me
Just don't seem to work at all
So patiently, she's waiting on me to tell you
That she needs love
And to choose between you two, boy you know
If I have to choose, I choose me
Cuz she's actually formin' a threesome
And I'm happy that I can join them, and
There names are me, myself and I

And her name is me,
She loves me more than you'll ever know
I finally see that loving you and loving me
Just don't seem to work work at all
So patiently, she's waiting on me to tell you
That she needs love,
And to choose between you two, boy you know
If I have to choose, I choose me
She's waiting on me to tell you that she needs love,
Gotta choose between you two, and you know
And if I have to choose,
I choose me, me, I gotta go with me~
