Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are

The second song from Bruno Mars we’ve featured on this site! We first featured “Marry You”, and now we’re featuring his first single from his debut album. This happy love song is simple yet it means so much to tell a girl that she looks fine just the way she is, especially in today’s world of super skinny supermodels and plastic surgery perfection!

 

 
 

Lionel Richie - Hello

Released in 1984, “Hello” went on to become Lionel Richie’s signature song. Most famous for its line “Hello, is it me you’re looking for?”. The wonderful slow piano music really sets the mood along with the powerful lyrics that truly describe how one feels when they see the one they love every day but he or she doesn’t seem to know they even exist.

 

 
 

Michael Jackson & Akon - Hold My Hand

Originally to be released on Akon’s 2008 album Freedom, “Hold My Hand” by Akon and Michael Jackson is an anthem like R&B love song. It’s really uplifting and powerful and it’s a shame that Michael Jackson passed away before it was fully complete and released in 2010. A handwritten note by Michael Jackson himself revealed that he wished for the song to be the first single released on his next [...]

 

 
 

Darren Hayes - Insatiable

A bit of a different love song today, Darren Hayes’ “Insatiable” is a song about a man who is obsessed with an actress. Well at least in the music video anyway, if you take away the music video and just listen to the lyrics, it’s a more adult orientated love song. But nevertheless, it’s a great debut song from Darren Hayes, former lead singer of Savage Garden.

Pussycat Dolls - Stickwitu

Released as the second single from their debut album, “Stickwitu” is a slow, soft and down tempo song, taking a step away from their upbeat first single “Don’t Cha”. The music video shows the Pussycat Dolls travelling around on tour, and I can’t help but wonder whether this song was a dedication to their boyfriends to let them know that they [Pussycat Dolls] love them? Who knows Download Pussycat Doll’s [...]
