Teddy Geiger

So okay...everyone who knows me...knows I'm a HUGE HUGE HUGE John Mayer fan. I love his music, his style, everything about him hahaha.

Anyways there's this new guy who's hit the music scene, whom I feel sort of reminds me of John. His name is Teddy Geiger. I will not say I am a Tedhead (that is what his fans seem to call themselves), but yes I do like his songs. He has that really nice raspy sort of singing voice which actually goes really well with the songs he's written.

What's so remarkable is that...he's just a kid!!! At just 17 years old, it's safe to say he's a rising young star. He first hit the scene as a finalist on VH-1's "In Search Of the New Partridge Family," and followed that up with a regular role on the short-lived CBS series, "Love Monkey."

His debut album, "Underage Thinking," has just arrived in stores. Geiger wrote or co-wrote 11 of the 12 songs, and with his heartthrob looks, (blue eyes and shaggy black hair) and intimate lyrics, this teenage sensation's fan base is expanding rapidly outside of his native Rochester, N.Y. Before hitting it big, Geiger was just one of the guys at an all-boys Jesuit school.

Teddy, a songwriting prodigy, is a self-taught musician who wrote and arranged complete compositions on guitar and piano by age eight Songs seem to pour from his head as instinctively as his grassroots fans pour into local venues to watch him perform. Using his music as his only marketing tool, Teddy has managed to generate a self-made fan base that attracts both weak-kneed teenage girls and rabid music fans hungry for meaningful rock and roll.

It's Teddy Geiger's undeniable talent, coupled with a lovable charisma, that's propelling him to the forefront of today's musical scene as a highly-anticipated breakthrough career artists. Keep your ears and eyes open for Teddy Geiger.

Sia : Breathe Me

Beautiful song (Sums up what I've been feeling lately)...Amazing video!

The video is made up of 2500 Polaroid photos.

Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Augustana : Boston

I was listening to one of my favorite radio stations here 107.1 The Peak when I heard this song by Augustana. Love it! Click to have a listen.

Boston

In the light of the sun
Is there anyone?
Oh it has begun
Oh dear, you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed
Some world you must have crossed

You said, You don’t know me
You don’t even care
Oh yeah
She said, you don’t know me
You don’t wear my chains
Oh yeah - yeah

The essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts cross an open field
When flowers gaze at you
They’re not the only ones
Who cry when they see you

You said, You don’t know me
You don’t even care
Oh yeah
She said, you don’t know me
You don’t wear my chains
Oh yeah

She said, I think I’m going to Boston
I think I’ll start a new life
I think I’ll start it over
No one knows my name
I’ll get out of California
I’m tired of the weather
I think I’ll get a lover
I’ll fly ‘em out to Spain

I think I’m going to Boston
I think that I’m just tired
I think I need a new town
To leave this all behind
I think I need a sunrise
I’m tired of the sunset
Here it’s nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice
Oh yeah

Boston
No one knows my name
Yeah
No one knows my name
No one knows my name…

Boston
No one knows my name

Aqualung

I am currently in love with Aqualung's music! It's amazing! Here's the lyrics to Strange and Beautiful...which describes the song perfectly!

Click refresh to see the many faces of Matt Hales

I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I'll see.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,
You turn every head but you don't see me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me.

Yeah...
Yeah...

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,
And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes...

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep,
I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me.

I'll put a spell on you,
You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
And when I wake you,
I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realise that you love me, yeah...

yeah...
yeah...
yeah...
yeah...

Tonight I Wanna Cry

"Tonight I Wanna Cry", I can't stop listening to this song by Keith Urban. I fell in love with it the minute I heard it a few months ago on the radio, but totally forgot about the song. Anyways, thanks to King, I have to listen to it at least once everyday now! It's such a beautiful song!! So peeps if you want to know what I'm talking about...feel free to click play!

Alone in this house again tonight
I got the TV on
The sound turned down
And a bottle of wine
There's pictures of you and I
On the walls around me
The way that it was
And could've been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walking away.

I've never been the kind
To ever let my feelings show
And I thought that being strong
Meant never losing your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough
To let go of my pain
To hell with my pride
Let it fall like rain from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry.

Would it help if I turned
The sad song on
All by myself
Would sure hit me hard
Now that your gone
Or maybe unfold
Some old yellow lost love letters
Its gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you
By hiding this way.

'Cause', I've never been the kind
To ever let my feelings show
And I thought that being strong
Meant never losing your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough
To let go of my pain
To hell with my pride
Let it fall like rain from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry.

Well, I've never been the kind
To ever let my feelings show
I thought that being strong
Meant never losing your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough
To let go of my pain
To hell with this pride
Let it fall like rain from my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry...
