This is not what I expected...

But then again to be fair, Armin van Buuren's music videos have never really been that all cool. His live performances are much better~

When he posted teasers about a Ping Pong video, I was crazy excited. But looking at the teaser... I'm torn between wanting to learn that dance... or cringing :P

Sorry Armin, but making music videos really isn't your forte!

Sizzling hot Kylie!

I can't tell which is more sizzling... Kylie or that intricate lace dress!

U

This is one of those songs, that I never really paid attention to, until the chorus kicks in and I get in SUCH AN EMOTIONAL HIGH.

Originally a song by Bo Bruce (btw you should really check out who she is, I know I was amazed when I did!), this track was co-written with former The Voice UK mentor Danny O'Donoghue and titled - Alive. Now here's the part that I'm not really sure about - how Gareth Emery came into the picture and why was it changed to "U" ... seriously, I can't seem to find anything about it around!!!

Anyways, I hope you like this as much as I do




And here's the original !



U
Walking down the highway traffics coming my way
all I see are flashing lights
People wearing blue suits wanna know the real truth
how many did I have tonight?
Looking at the wreckage anyone would guess that all inside had died
But I'm alive

Wake up in a strange place angels over my head
one of them is shouting clear
1000 bolts of lightning bring me back to life
and it's a miracle that I'm still here
As I'm coming to life screaming out for you I need you by my side
Now I'm alive

No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
I just close my eyes and all I saw was you

All the things in my head everything left unsaid
I never got a second to say
Knew that I adored you the moment that I saw you
just terrified you'd push me away
Though we're dying slowly just want you to hold me what are we waiting for
We're alive

No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
I just close my eyes and all I saw was you

If I don't die lying in the rain and I live another day
then I'd run to you
Cos I don't have regrets just things I never say I need you

No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
I just close my eyes and all I saw was you

This Is What It Feels Like

Okay this song... and Ping Pong are like my anthems at the moment. 

I love this rendition by John Ewbank & the Metropole Orkest along with the man himself, Armin van Buuren on The Voice of Holland.
