Sad Songs

..are the best songs. You don’t have to wonder how it’s gonna end..

No one’s album has spoken to me like Melanie Fiona’s The Bridge in quite a while. This Canadian beauty of Guyanese decent has released something so soulful, unique and refreshing to my ears. Her album is something like what Teedra Moses’ Complex Simplicity was to me in 04: it has a track for every facet of my life. I can listen to The Bridge non-stop without skipping and when it comes to me, that’s a difficult feat. So guess who will be copping her album on Tuesday when it drops in the US? =]

One song that I found myself playing over and over was Sad Songs. Sampling Janet Kay’s 1979, Silly Games, this break up track is somewhat.. upbeat. I found myself over here groovin to this, although maybe I shouldn’t have been considering the actual lyrics behind it.

Loving her.. leaving me.. It’s not the way it’s supposed to be..
But you’ll regret it.. You’ll be upset.. when the next man is loving me..
