Kids in Love

Because I’m on the second week of PCD-ing. Here’s another song from Mayday Parade.

Title: Kids in Love

Artist: Mayday Parade

I look back to the one and only summer time
And my girl was the envy of every friend of mine
She slept safely in my arms
We were so young and invincible

Closed lips, she was never one to kiss and tell
Those trips in the summer never went so well
Young love is such dumb love
Call it what you want it was still enough

And you’re still out of me reach
And you’re still all of the things
That I want in my life
How could I ask you to leave me?

And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes we wouldn’t learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tare us apart?

Our breath smelled of cigarettes and alcohol
We’d walk down the beach counting every star
Our hearts beat inside our chest
Leaving us gasping for every breath

Her smile with the wind blowing through her hair
Was so contagious in the air
So satisfying and I’m still smiling

And you’re still out of me reach
And you’re still all of the things
That I want in my life
How could I ask you to leave me?

And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes we wouldn’t learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tare us apart?

We’re falling down, can we pick up the pieces?
We’re at an all time low, how do we get it back?
We’re falling down, can we pick up the pieces?

We’re falling down, can we pick up the pieces now?

And we were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes we wouldn’t learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tare us….

We were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes we wouldn’t learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tare us apart?

We were just kids in love
The summer was full of mistakes we wouldn’t learn from
The first kiss stole the breath from my lips
Why did the last one tare us apart?

Here’s a link of their music video: http://vimeo.com/10738300 (It was banned from youtube tho)

It’s a story of a summer love. There this young couple who met up at a summer time, liked and loved each other, each other’s company. A girl with all the beautiful characteristics, pretty, smart, sexy, hot. In that, envying his girlfriend.  That they knew that wasn’t good for them, they were doing stuffs, imagine the worsts ones, making out, playing on the hallways naked, threesomes, all kinds of sex, and the likes. But they love what they are doing and they still continue their relationship. They didn’t learned from what they did, or even care that they have done mistakes in that summer. They love what they did and that was all.

But in a context of generalization (minus the worst things they’ve been doing), we can tell that, this young couple’s relationship wasn’t approved by their parents, that was the mistake they were doing, continuing their relationship. They don’t want to leave each other, because they thought that they are meant to be, like he was what he needs, and also for the guy, she was what she needs.

When summer was nearing to end, they had fights, they didn’t understand each other, pride, envy, disrtust took them. And their relationship ended as the summer ended as well without making them realize what wrong doings they’ve done.

I’d Hate to Be You When People Find Out What This Song Is About

As what I’ve talked about my recent post, I’ll analyze songs. I’ll start it with this. Ready?

Title: I’d Hate To Be You When People Found Out What This Song Is About
Artist/Band: Mayday Parade

Here’s the lyrics of the song:

And then we both go, down together
We may stay there forever
I’ll just try to get up
And I’m sorry, this wasn’t easy
When I asked you believed me, you never let go

Well I’m thinking of the worst things, that I could say to you
But a promise doesn’t mean a thing, anymore
And this never will be right with me
And now you’re trying desperately
But I’m, tongue-tied and terrified of what I’ll say

And then we both go, down together

We may stay there forever
I’ll just try to get up
And I’m sorry, this wasn’t easy
When I asked you believed me, you never let go
But I let go

And you could sing along
And you could see the melody, that’s been calling out your wrongs
This never will be right with me
And now you’re trying desperately
But I’m, tongue-tied and terrified of what I’ll say

But I never told you everything
I’m losing hope and faded dreams
And every single memory, along the way

And then we both go, down together
We may stay there forever
Just try to get up
And I’m sorry, this wasn’t easy
When I asked you believed me, you never let go
But I let go

And we both go, down together
And stay there forever
Just try to get up

And then we both go down together
We may stay there forever
Just try to get up
And I’m sorry, this wasn’t easy
When I asked you believed me, you never let go

But I let go

For me this song means, a couple (Okay, we’ll name this couple A and B. Oryt?) who had a fight, a really worse one. A is trying to fix things, to fix their relationship. On the other, B do not know what to do, if he’ll listen to A or listen to the other people who are telling him to stop everything. But then, they’ll realized that they’re both wrong, they have done something that led them to that situation, they haven’t told everyhting to each other. It’s like in this situation, B has more fault here, but A was the one fixing things, A really loves B so much he does not even care what really had happened.In time, A had given up fixing things, telling B that he’s sorry for everything that he wanted them back together. B was ready to listen. Their timing was not right. Even if A told B that he’ll stay there. It happened that he had to leave because there’s nothing going on anymore. B’s comeback was too late to fix.

It’s my first time to analyze a song. Sorry for noob work!

WHAT IS EPICNESS

I don’t know how to start this post. asadkhjksahfkjakjfja

I’ve talked about Mayday parade’s concert in some of my recent posts. So, yeah, we (Aly and I) went to the concert last Thursday, that was July 07, 2011. I cut 2 of my subjects just to get there early (for the first 200 that will get freebies hihi). After my Psy class, I run to the jeep station. I got to Sta. Rosa around 1pm. I met up with Aly there. We arrived at Meralco Theater around 2:30pm. We were waiting outside. They don’t allow us to get inside. It was early, the guards said. While waiting outside, we gain friends. And coincidentally they were from Los Baños! But they are already graduates of UPLB. The guards let us in around 4pm? Even I’m asking Aly many times what time is it, I can’t remember! The pretty girl ( I don’t know her name tho) was numbering the tickets for the people who were part of the 200. I was 117th. They allowed us to enter the lobby around 5:40pm.  They gave us the freebies! A shirt, stickers, CD, baller, pin. At the lobby, there are stalls selling merchs, ballers, photobooth (which is freeee!), water. Aly and I went to take pictures at the photobooth. Too bad I can’t post it here, I forgot to get copy, it’s at Aly’s :( After that, we got inside the theater. We were so closed! We were at F224 and F225. SO CLOSE. But then I still envy the VIPs they are nearer. Hahaha. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 …….

December Avenue was their front act. They were awesome too!

They sang about 6 songs? I lost track, sorry! They sang their final song. After announcing the winners for back-stage pass, the winner of the shoes. It’s Mayday Parade!! Tho there are like 15 minutes before they went out because of technical difficulties (assuming, they were tuning the guitar, i don’t know the right term for that). Tenenenenen! MAYDAY PARADE!!!!!!!!!

They sang Jamie All Over, Kids in Love, I’d Hate to be You When People Find Out What This Song is About, Anywhere But Here, Black Cat, When I Get Home, You’re so Dead, Terrible Things, You Be the Anchor That Keeps My Feet on the Ground, I’ll Be the Wings That Keep Your Heart in the Clouds, Three Cheers for Five Years and their final song Get Up.

Buuuuut, WE WANT MORE. We beg like for 10minutes. I lose hope tho. But then Derek enters the stage again!!!!! And then they follow. Their final final song was Jersey.

During the concert, I really can’t explain my emotions. I wanted to cry. I shouted my hearts out. I sing along with them. I’m really proud of them. I can already that time LOL but really my I can’t explain my happiness, greatness, grateful to be there. ALEX IS FREAKING HOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!! THEY WERE REALLY BEYOND AWESOME!!!

Meet this awesome people ♥

Jeremy,  bass guitarist

Brooks, rhythm guitar

DEREK IS SO THIN BUT HAAAAAAWT! Vocals and acoustic

This is drummer, Jake.

I LOVE YOU ALEX :) Lead guitarist.

One more thing, Mayday Parade’s awesome because if you notice some bands/soloists when they performed on their concert, their voices somewhat changed. Mayday is exactly the same. Really really the same. I was stoked at their first song. Beyond awesome, really, they are.

Please come back here, Mayday Parade. I will buy a VIP ticket when you guys go back here ♥

As what I posted in my livejournal account, I was supposed to change the url of it, the thing is you should pay for the rename, so I deleted it. I planned to make another one there, but I chose to sign up here. Also, LJ it too slow. So there, I ended up here.

Well, about the thing, we’re basically okay. Blaaaaa.

I’ve passed my SA form this morning, hopefully be able to get it later. And I’ll meet up with Timot later at 4pm to find subjects that we could assist. Good luck to us! Can’t wait to have my first $$$ hihihi.

Freaking excited for tomorrow! 29 hours and counting. See you there Mayday Parade!
