Songs I like that you've never heard of



2 songs: 1 English, 一首中文的.

English:
Okay - Swirl 360
This song is featured in the Van Wilder movie staring Ryan Reynolds, and also appeared on the soundtrack.
I can't remember which scene it is featured, but I just remembered that this song stuck out to me. That and Michelle Branch's You Get Me, but I'm sure more of you guys heard that song more than this one.
The band mostly appeared on soundtrack and is currently doing mainly background work for other artists.
More info on them can be found @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swirl_360.


Lyrics:
She sat me down and took me by the hand
She said I'll try to make this painless if I can
She was sorry and then she began to cry
Couldn't look me in the eye
I said baby let me just save you the time

I can see where this is going
Tears will fall and hearts will break
Love's a game we all must play
So dry your eyes and be on your way
As for me I'll be okay

Well I thought we were that perfect match
It's so hard to say that now without a laugh
There was never ever such a thing
Not as far as I can see
Now that all of love such misery

You can see where this going
Tears will fall and hearts will break
Love's a game we all must play
So dry your eyes and be on your way
As for me I'll be okay

We gonna be okay

I can see where this is going
Tears will fall and hearts will break
Love's a chance we all must take
So dry your eyes and be on your way
As for me I'll be okay
As for me I'll be okay
As for me I'll be okay

I'll be okay
I'll be okay

中文:
一人一半 - 伍家辉
这首歌应该很少人听过, 是一部新加坡电影<<881>>的主题曲.
我那时也巧, 电影放映的时候我刚好在新加坡, 朋友在网上发这首歌给我. 我觉得非常好听...

前面的"一人一半"是用福建话唱的.


歌词:
一人一半, 感情不散
一人一素故, 感情才会久
时光累计, 安静的泪滴
一心去追, 爱那么可贵

这样的人, 这样地等
无非是等个回应眼神
为爱翻滚, 不计伤痕
甘心为你一生都浮沉
这样的人, 别笑我蠢
傻傻的心痛也不觉疼
就算天冷, 就算残忍
等你想起这没用的人

一人一半, 感情不散
已经找到爱, 为何要离开

时光累计, 安静的泪滴
一心去追, 爱那么可贵

这样的人, 这样地等
无非是等个回应眼神
为爱翻滚, 不计伤痕
甘心为你一生都浮沉
这样的人, 别笑我蠢
傻傻的心痛也不觉疼
就算天冷, 就算残忍
等你想起这没用的人

一人一半, 感情不散
已经找到爱, 为何要离开
已经找到爱, 为何要离开


Bonus:
一首我到现在才发现的歌.
红豆 - 王菲/方大同

在逛facebook时挖到的, 发现的有点晚... 两个版本都非常好听. 推荐.
