Hi everyone!!! This week's song is from Alexis Jordan. She was one of the contestants of the first edition of America's got talent (similar to our "Tienes Talento").

There is more information about Alexis here.
This is her channel on Youtube.
Alexis at America's Got Talent. (she was only 14 years old).

 





This is Alexis Jordan: Good Girl

Lyrics for the song:

I like tight jeans, dark shades,
When I walk the ground shakes (boom)
Like an 808 (boom)
You appreciate my lean
Body nice shape,
Wanna take me on a date (move)
You've got what it takes (move)
You better have some cake.

I like, how I'm catching your eyes,
I like, how I don't even try,
I like you, I like you boy,
I like you, boy.

[Chorus]
You might mistake me for heart breaker,
'cause there's blood on the floor,
I'm hoping you will see, there's something good in me,
Never seen before,
Might mistake me for a heart breaker,
'cause there's blood on the floor,
I know you're shaking me,
My heart is there for keeps, there's an open door.

I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good girl,
But I've been bad before.
Good girl,
I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good girl,
But I've been bad before.
Good girl, but I've been bad before.

I chew bubble gum and talk fast,
Switch up to high class (grooves)
On my day to day (grooves)
On these 28's,
My hydraulics bump hard,
But I can't kiss a car. (lose)
If you walk away (lose)
This could be your day

I like, how I'm catching your eyes,
I like, how I don't even even try,
I like you, I like you boy,
I like you, boy.

[CHORUS]
You might mistake me for heartbreaker,
'cause there's blood on the floor,
I'm hoping you will see, there's something good in me,
Never seen before,
Might mistake me for a heartbreaker,
'cause there's blood on the floor,
I know you're shaking me ,
My heart is there for keeps, there's an open door.

I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good girl,
But I've been bad before.
Good girl, but I've been bad before
Good, good girl,
I know I can be a good, good girl,
I know I can be a good girl,
But I've been bad before.
Good girl, but I've been bad before. [x5]

Here you have the newest Simple Plan song. The song is called Jet Lag, and they sing it with Natasha Bedingfield. They will release their new album in June.

Do you know what jet lag is?????



This is where you can watch the video.

These are the lyrics of the song:

What time is it where you are?
I miss you more than anything
Back at home you feel so far
Waiting for the phone to ring
It’s getting lonely living upside down
I don’t even wanna be in this town
Trying to figure out the time zone's making me crazy.


[Chorus]
You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
It’s driving me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart heart heart is so jetlagged.


[Verse 2]
What time is it where you are?
5 more days and i’ll be home
I keep your picture in my car
I hate the thought of you alone
I been keeping busy all the time
Just to try to keep you off my mind

Trying to figure out the time zone's making me crazy

[Chorus]
You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
It’s driving me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart heart heart is so jetlagged.


[Bridge]
I miss you so bad (x5)
I wanna share your horizon
And see the same sunrising

I miss you so bad
Turn the hour hand back to when you were holding me.

[Chorus]
You say good morning
When it’s midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bed
I wake up to your sunset
and it’s driving me mad
I miss you when you say good morning

but it's midnight
Going out of my head
Alone in this bedI wake up to your sunset
And it's driving me mad
I miss you so bad
And my heart heart heart is so jetlagged.

Next week is "National Pet Week" in the USA. Dogs are the most popular pet around the world. Why do you think so many people own dogs?
If you have a dog, explain what do you love most of them. If you want you can give me a picture of your dog, and I will post it here in the blog.

If you don't have a dog, would you like to have one? Why?

Do you like dogs or cats?

What other pets do you think can be at home with people?








By the way all these dogs and cats (and many others) are on adoption (that means you can adopt them). If you want more information about adopting an animal ask me. Don't be shy!!!

He loves Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Augustana, John Legend, Elton John and John Lennon. “I love artists who can communicate their emotions through music and sing from the heart. That’s what I’m hoping to do with my songs .”



He sang a version of  Lady Gaga's Paparazzi on a school party and it was a hit on YouTube. His brother wrote to a very famous tv presenter and asked her to watch Greyson singing Paparazzi. She loved it and invited him to her show.

Greyson Chance: Waiting outside the lines

Ok, Easter is over and we are almost finishing this year. I encourage all of you to do your best to end this school year!

And now, this week's song is from a very young artist called Greyson Chance. Later I will post a part of his biography. He speaks very clear, althoug he has a very strange accent :D



Greyson Chance: Waiting outside the lines

Lyrics:

You'll never enjoy your life,
living inside the box
You're so afraid of taking chances,
how you gonna reach the top?

Rules and regulations,
force you to play it safe
Get rid of all the hesitation,
it's time for you to seize the day


Instead of just sitting around
and looking down on tomorrow
You gotta let your feet off the ground,
the time is now

I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting,
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines

Try to have no regrets
even if it's just tonight
How you gonna walk ahead
if you keep living behind

Stuck in my same position,
you deserve so much more
There's a whole world around us,
just waiting to be explored

Instead of just sitting around
and looking down on tomorrow
You gotta let your feet off the ground,
the time is now, just let it go

The world will force you to smile
I'm here to help you notice the rainbow
Cause I know,
What's in you is out there

I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting,
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines

I'm trying to be patient (I'm trying to be patient)
the first step is the hardest (the hardest)
I know you can make it,
go ahead and take it

I'm Waiting, waiting, just waiting I'm waiting
I'm waiting, waiting, just waiting
I'm waiting, waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines
Waiting outside the lines

You'll never enjoy your life
Living inside the box
You're so afraid of taking chances,
How you gonna reach the top?.
