For All The Brothers in Tunisia, Libya & Egypt



Song For Life Time ! For All the brothers and sister who fight for their freedom of their homeland. My Doa goes for all of you....

Maher Zain - Freedom ( Official Lyric )

Gathered here with my family
...My neighbours and my friends
Standing firm together against oppression holding hands
It doesn't matter where you're from
Or if you're young, old, women or man
We're here for the same reason; we want to take back our land

Oh God thank you
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we're here together

Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We're calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you're here with us

No more being prisoners in our homes
No more being afraid to talk
Our dream is just to be free, just to be free
Now when we've taking our first step
Towards a life of complete freedom
We can see our dream getting closer and closer, we're almost there

Oh God thank you
For giving us the strength to hold on
And now we're here together

Calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We're calling for freedom, fighting for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you're here with us

I can feel the pride in the air
And it makes me strong to see everyone
Standing together holding hands in unity
Shouting out load demanding their right for freedom
This is it and we're not backing of
Oh God we know you hear our call

And we're calling you for freedom, freedom
We know you can hear our call ooh
We're calling for freedom, calling for freedom
We know you won’t let us fall oh
We know you're here with us

Let's Make It EASIER....



Easier Lyrics:
What do you want, what are you looking for
What do you see if you don't open up the door
Into your heart is where I wanna be
And girl I'm trying hard to find the key
'Cause all I really wanna do is make it easier

[Chorus]
And I'm not afraid
Nothing you can say that's gonna make me walk away
No matter what you do
I promise you I'm gonna stay
You need someone like me to make it easier

It's hard to let go
of who you might of been before
But if you just believe
there can be so much more
I'll help yOU find
who you wanna be
If you would only put your trust in me
'Cause all I want to do is make it easier

[chorus]

It don't matter what you've done before 'cause
I'm only gonna love you more and
Nothing else really matters too much to me

You need someone like me...

And l'm not afraid
Nothing you can say that's gonna make me walk away
No matter what you do
I promise you I'm gonna stay
You need someone like me
and I need someonelike you
To make it easier...

Nota Jase :
There are so many ballads songs out there. Some are evergreen and some vanished after too much air play on the radio. This is one song that really touch my heart. Suprisingly it was never been release as a Single by Joe McIntyre form his 2nd Solo Album. I remember when I started liking this song when I stayed at an Balakong Jaya Apartment. Singing along with Joey at my balcony with small plants, butterfly and bird nest. It could never been the same as I do not have balcony in my current house... (:))) I believe when you are facing hurdles... believe in yourself to make it easier... your own experience will help you, it ios just a test.

Tujuh Saat Pertama



Saya sedang membelek sebuah buku tentang kehebatan 1001 lagu yang pernah diterbitkan di 'Popular Book Store', AEON Taman Equine sebentar tadi. Tanpa diduga terselit akan sebuah lagu yang pernah saya minati kira-kira 15 tahun yang lalu ketika saya masih belajar. Tajuk lagu tersebut ialah '7 Seconds'. Lantaran itu... tiba-tiba terbuka hati saya untuk membuka 'label post' baru yang berjudul 'Songs for Life Time'. Dan lagu ini menjadi lagu pertama...

"7 Seconds" adalah lagu yang dicipta oleh Youssou N'Dour, Neneh Cherry, Cameron McVey dan Jonathan Sharp. Dikeluarkan sebagai 'single' oleh Youssou N'Dour menampilkan Neneh Cherry dan menjadi hit antarabangsa yang hebat pada tahun 1994. Ia kekal berada di dalam carta lagu selama hampir setengah tahun dan mencapai kedudukan tiga di puncak carta lagu di banyak negara seperti England, Perancis, Jerman, Itali, Australia, Rusia dan Poland. Single ini menduduki tangga No 1 selama 16 minggu berturut-turut di Chart Jomblo Perancis (yang merupakan pemegang rekod sebagai lagu paling lama menduduki puncak carta bagi tahun 1994). Lagu ini dimuatkan di dalam album Youssour N'Dour's yang berjudul Wommat. Pada tahun 1996, Neneh Cherry memasukkan lagu ini di dalam Album beliau yang berjudul 'Man'.

Lagu '7 Seconds' ini dinyanyikan di dalam tiga (3) bahasa: Youssou N'Dour menyanyikannya di dalam Bahasa Wolof (Bahasa Rasmi Senegal) dan Bahasa Perancis (ditambah paduan suara bersama neneh Cherry di dalam Bahasa Inggeris). Sementara Neneh Cherry pula menyanyikannya di adalam Bahasa Inggeris.

Menurut Neneh Cherry, '7 Seconds' adalah tentang 7 saat pertama yang positif dalam kehidupan seorang anak baru lahir di mana mereka tidak tahu tentang masalah dan kekerasan (violence) di dalam dunia kita. Hebatkan intipati lagu ini?
