Halo

As soon as I heard that Beyonce and David Cook have come out with their new albums, I rushed to the record store to get them...

I normally don't do music reviews since I don't think I am an expert at that. But, I guess sharing my feelings or rather impressions at these new albums won't hurt us.


Bo & me have been looking forward to the release of David Cook's album. I have been a fan since his days in American Idols. I guess he got my attention when he sang 'Billy Jean' and changed the tune completely that I was not left reminiscing my childhood... but in awe instead. But the new album left Bo disappointed, he said he liked the Idols album better. Maybe because he knows most of the songs, after all they are all other artists' songs. I am giving David a chance, I'm going to listen to all of his songs but not until I am finished with Beyonce.


Beyonce... She's as usual, not a disappointment. She always come up with good tunes and nice lyrics (although sometimes broken grammar)... I'm not an English expert either but the first single title is "If I Were a Boy"... Shouldn't it be 'If I was a boy'? I stand to be corrected here, so anybody knows the right phrase? 'Halo', the second single that has got me hooked. I actually so hooked that I put 12 of the same song in my Ipod playlist so I can listen to it over and over again.

Here's the song 'Halo' I was talking about. Isn't it easy on the ear?

Here's the lyric & video just for fun.. Enjoy!

Remember those walls I built
Well baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Woah...

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can feel your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo)
Halooooo ouuuu
Halooooo ouuuu
Halooooo ouuuu
Ouuuuu ouuuuu ouuuuu

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
