Post #634: Lita Ford - "Kiss Me Deadly" - Lita

So if you don't like this song, then there is something seriously wrong with you!  Ha!!  I'm just teasing... there's nothing wrong with you if you don't like it... other than the fact that we will never, ever, ever be friends.  Well, maybe, just maybe, if you like Reel Big Fish's ska cover of it, which I have included below the lyrics, we might have some glimmer of hope that we will one day possibly be friends... In the meantime, enjoy your weekend!!!

Until next time...

XOXOXO

I went to a party last Saturday night
I didn't get laid I got in a fight uh-huh
It ain't no big thing

Late for my job and the traffic was bad

Had to borrow 10 bucks from my old man uh-huh

It ain't no big thing

I went to a party last Saturday night

I told you that story it'll be alright uh-huh

It ain't no big thing

But I know what I like

I know I like dancing with you

And I know what you like

I know you like dancing with me oh yeah

Kiss me once

Kiss me twice

Come on pretty baby kiss me deadly

Had a few beers getting high

Sitting watching the time go by uh-huh

It ain't no big thing

Nothing to eat and no T.V.

Looking in the mirror don't get it for me uh-huh

It ain't no big thing

But I know what I like

I know I like dancing with you

And I know what you like

I know you like dancing with me oh yeah

Kiss me once

Kiss me twice

Come on pretty baby kiss me deadly

Kiss me once

Kiss me twice

Come on pretty baby kiss me deadly

You know I like dancing with you

Dancing with you, come on

Kiss me once

Kiss me twice

Come on pretty baby kiss me deadly

Kiss me once

Kiss me twice

Come on pretty baby kiss me

Come on pretty baby kiss me

Come on pretty baby kiss me deadly

Post #633: The Vogues - "You're The One" - You're The One

So, I'm not exactly sure why, but I've been on a natural and healthy kick lately.  Therefore, in addition to exploring the wonderful world of essential oils, I have also decided to go back to using henna & indigo to dye my hair.  OH MY GOODNESS, why in the world I ever switched to synthetic boxed dyes will forever be a mystery to me... oh wait, I remember.  Well, you see, it takes twelve (12) hours for the henna powder to mix with the acidic liquid of your choosing, and then it takes an additional four (4) hours of the odd-smelling gloopy, gloppy green paste sitting on your head and running down your neck and face, in order for the entire ordeal to be complete.  However, the lovely color and silky condition of my hair is worth every penny to have those over-priced plant-based powders shipped to my humble abode, and I'm not being snarky here.  In fact, if my hair could sing a song to its beloved henna & indigo, which it has obviously missed for the past few years, I am almost certain that it would be this one, which is actually a cover of a Petula Clark tune; so I will include her version too!  Enjoy!!!

Until next time...

Every time we meet, everything is sweet
Ooh, you're so tender, I must surrender
My love is your love, now and forever

You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love

Keep me in your heart never let us part
Ooh, never leave me please don't deceive me
I want you only, you must believe me

You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love

I adore you and no one before you
Could make me feel this way since I met you
I just can't forget you, I love you more each day
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

There may be some tears through the coming years
Ooh, all the while I know you'll be smilin'
Your love will guide me though every mile 'cause

You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love

You're the one that I long to kiss
Baby, you're the one that I really miss
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
Baby, you're the one that I love

You're the one that I long to kiss

Post #632: Kesang Marstrand - "Skyrocket" - For My Love

Well, lookey here, you're getting two (2) posts in one (1) week... aren't you special???  So, I've been hearing this tune on my way to work almost daily for the past month, and it's so whimsical and magical sounding.  It puts me in a fantastic mood, and it's like a perfect mix of The Cocteau Twins and Sinead O'Connor.  

Something else that I've gotten into that I also find quite whimsical, as well as mood-altering (but in a good, healthy way), is mixing essential oils.  I recently made this amazing face cream out of coconut oil, olive oil, frankincense essential oil, and myrrh essential oil.  I mean, seriously, if they were good enough to be gifts for the baby Jesus, then they are definitely good enough to be slapped on my face at night!!  Cleopatra also supposedly used both frankincense and myrrh oils in her beauty routine.  So it seems to be a win-win situation, and it smells amazing and sends me right off to dreamland.

Next up, I plan to tackle a jasmine body spray.  I'm a little bored with smelling like orchids... I think a jasmine scent will be a nice change of pace... maybe I'll even toss in a little lavender or even some rose... Oh, the possibilities are endless!!!


Until next time...

XOXOXO

Out in the driveway
A lit skyrocket
Here comes trouble again

Dizzy ideas
Could be the weather
Low clouds are coming in

You walk right through
Taking over my imagination

A Catherine wheel
A color bomb
Can I kiss you now?

Walking barefoot
In the wet grass
A bright sound spinning out

You walk right through
Taking over my imagination

So who are you, who are you
Who are you this time?
