2.#5 songs from my music library for you this weekend

The weekend i tagged the most beautiful this year so far, a new month begins and the aroma of all the different delicacies been prepared for the Sallah celebration won't just allow me to have a rest of mind ooo....
Home alone throughout the day, listening and feeling the pleasure of music, i have picked out this five lovely songs for my fans to let you know you are loved and you can't just give up on love. So, lets check out what my five top picks are this weekend.

5. NO BETTER by TATIANA MANAOIS - I just have to include this loving guitarist, so she comes as my fifth pick for this beautiful weekend, "No Better" comes from her 2015 studio album "Lovely". The song speaks about ones expectations from someone you love but that are never gotten but still yet we just stick to that person because one doesn't feel complete without the person. My favorite line in the song "You never share the blanket,You always take it from me-And baby I'm cold too,But it makes me no better.'Cause I'm nothing without you".

4. DIE FOR YOU by THE WEEKND - From the 2016 studio album "Star boy" by the Canadian singer The Weeknd.  “Die For You” croons about the conflicting feelings and pain that comes with letting go of someone one still has intense feelings for. "Die For You" peaked at number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100. It reached the Top ten on the R&B Songs chart and the Top 20 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song also charted and peaked at number 35 on the Canadian Hot 100, reaching the Top 40. The song is speculated to be written about Tesfaye's ex-girlfriend, model Bella Hadid due to rumors that arose that the two ended their relationship near the release of the album. In an interview on Beats 1 Radio with Zane Lowe, Tesfaye admitted that the song was finished a mere week before the release of Starboy and that it was his hardest song to finish off the record due to its lyrical content, which further added to the speculation. My favorite line in the song is "The distance and time between us will never change my mind, cause baby i would die for you".

3. SHADOW by BIRDY - from her third studio album "Beautiful Lies" released on the 25th of march 2016 through Atlantic Records. Birdy is a British Musician . SHADOW was composed by Jamie Hartman, Melisa Bester and Birdy. A song that describes how one lover will always follow the other no matter what happens. My favorite line in the song is "Only you ever make me scared because only you can take me there"










2. LAST DAY ALIVE by THE CHAINSMOKERS ft FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE : Is a 2017 song from the album "Memories_Do Not Open" Before the world got to hear Florida Georgia Line's collaboration with The Chainsmokers, "Last Day Alive," on April 7, the FGL guys -- Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard -- admitted that the team-up was a "dream collaboration" for them. In fact, when Kelley and Hubbard chatted with Billboard at the Academy of Country Music Awards (yes, right after their epic performance with the Backstreet Boys), Hubbard said that the last time they had been asked who they wanted to collaborate with, Kelley suggested The Chainsmokers.

So when the country stars were approached by the hitmaking dance duo for "Last Day Alive," it wasn't a no-brainer to say yes -- it was also "just a little sign" that they're doing exactly what they're supposed to be doing, Hubbard tells Billboard in a new interview.   “Last Day Alive” is about  enjoying life to the fullest, pretending one will die tomorrow. My favorite line in the song is "Waking up within your arms.I feel alive and dangerous,You're dangerous, we're dangerous.


1. IF I COULD BE WHERE YOU ARE by ENYA : This is from her 2005 album Amarantine. Amarantine was the sixth studio album by Irish singer, songwriter and musician Enya, released on 21 November 2005 by Warner Music internationally and on 22 November 2005 by Reprise Records in the United States. Following the release of her compilation box set Only Time – The Collection (2002), Enya took a short break before she started work on a new album in September 2003, her first since A Day Without Rain (2000). Amarantine was recorded in Ireland with her longtime recording partners, arranger and producer Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan. It marked Enya's first album without a song recorded in Gaelic lyrics, and her first sung in Japanese and Loxian, a fictional language created by Roma.

Amarantine received mixed reviews from critics, but it was a commercial success, reaching number 8 on the UK Albums Chart and number 6 on the Billboard 200 in the United States, where it sold one million copies in its first month of release. Enya released two singles from the album, "Amarantine" and "It's in the Rain". A Christmas Special Edition was released in 2006. To promote the album, Enya did several interviews and televised performances, including the 2006 World Music Awards. In 2007, the album won Enya her fourth Grammy Award for Best New Age Album. According to Nielsen SoundScan, it was the third top selling new age album of the 2000s in the United States. My favorite line in the song is "I'm lost now without you,I don't know where you are,I keep watching, I keep hoping,But time keeps us apart.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye arrested

Former South Korean President Park Geun-hye , who was removed from office earlier this month, was arrested on Friday. "Major crimes have been ascertained and there is a concern that the suspect might attempt to destroy evidence," Judge Kang Bu-young said in a text message to reporters. "The court recognizes the need, necessity and reasonableness of the suspect's arrest." Prosecutors announced Monday that they were seeking to arrest Park on charges relating to abuse of power, accepting bribes and leaking important information. "The suspect abused the mighty power and position as President to take bribes from companies and infringed upon the freedom of corporate management and leaked important confidential official information," the statement from the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office said. Park had been held in a temporary detention facility at the Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office Building ahead of the court's decision. S...

Google apologises after ads appear next to extremist content

Google's European boss has apologized after adverts from major firms and government agencies appeared next to extremist content on its YouTube site. It came after Marks and Spencer became the latest firm to pull its online ads over the issue, joining others such as Audi, RBS and L'Oreal. Google's European chief, Matthew Brittin, promised to review the firm's policies and strengthen enforcement. But some questioned the company's commitment to tackling the issue. A recent investigation by the Times found adverts from a range of well-known firms and organisations had appeared alongside content from supporters of extremist groups on YouTube's video site. An advert appearing alongside a video earns the poster about £6 for every 1,000 clicks it generates, meaning brands may have unwittingly contributed money to extremists. The Times said that rape apologists, anti-Semites and hate preachers were among those receiving payouts. Analysis: Rory Cellan-Jones, BBC technolog...

Help Stop An Execution

Nearly two years ago, the eyes of the world were on Oklahoma, where a man named Richard Glossip was facing execution for a 1997 murder many people say he was not involved in. I learned about Richard’s case when actress Susan Sarandon contacted me, expressing deep concern that the State of Oklahoma was just about to kill an innocent man. After reviewing the facts, I too became convinced of Richard’s innocence, and we decided to  make a public plea for the governor to gra nt freedom On 30 September 2015, Richard came within minutes of execution by lethal injection, when officials suddenly stopped the proceedings. As it turned out, the state of Oklahoma had procured the wrong execution drug, risking another botched execution that would lead to a slow and painful death. At the last minute, Governor Mary Fallin, not exactly an opponent of the death penalty, issued a stay of Richard’s execution. Today, Richard’s situation is nowhere near being resolved. As the st...
