I’m hither! I’m totally not late! And I totally didn’t give up on sleeping tonight to put an end to this or anything. (in fairness, t’was already 90% put together, with links and everything, I accurate had to fix formatting. Yes there DOES seem to be a apportionment of formatting to fix.
24 songs in wholly. More than half of them may exist from one master source. As general, it’s skewed to a indubitable style, but also as usual, there are a fair number of wandering surprises.
July (the “where total my tunes at*” month)
66. Michelle Tumes – Listen
Rhythm resounding conducive to a million years
Timeless impression beneficial to all to hear
Long story compendious, I bought the wrong CD at a garage market because I was so excited to know her name. Said CD is for the most part way too Christian and dull with regard to my tastes, but its opening track has a neat Celtic vibe that draws to give heed to running free in nature.
*July 23 update: SERIOUSLY, WHERE.
July 28 update: *mainlines Smash* FINALLY! [October report: I would skip to the period of August if you want affair different.]
Note #2: most of the Smash songs ~ the sake of July are short so they bond to clips from the show. Awesome clips. Clips from the non-Marilyn symphonious, for the record. They have a secondary one now, in case you’re confused. I comprehend this is a post about harmony, but promoting Smash is a work at ~s I take very seriously, even advertise-mortem.
67. Smash Cast (Katharine McPhee) – Some Boys
Some boys put on’t know how to love
Her distinctive character is so soft and high and moderately and wistful, I cannot conceive of in what condition this was ever sung by a guy.
68. Smash Cast (Jeremy Jordan*) – Broadway, Here I Come
(*or discontinuous by omission of one and equally awesome option: Krysta Rodriguez)
The clan are all pointing
I bet they’d none guess
That the saint that they’re anointing
Is frightened of the salmagundi
The piano on this is imaginary. It’s also an incredibly inspiring-sounding song, until you pick it apart and you effect the lyrics describe a suicide make trial. Arguably metaphorically, as a leap into the assurance of fame, but YOU JUST DON’T KNOW. It’s beyond belief, though. Even Chris liked it. It’s like the united song I’ve successfully foisted on him.
69. Smash Cast (Katharine McPhee) – Caught in the Storm
Tell me for what reason I begin to forget you
When you maintain coming back and I let you
Love me till you disappear
Bent my ear with the opening piano and the – shocker – turmoil imagery. To put it another road, this sounds the most like a part that would come off a Kat McPhee album, instead of being part of a harmonious.
70. Smash Cast (Jeremy Jordan/Katharine McPhee) – Heart Shaped Wreckage
We can start over, better, both of us comprehend
If we just let the stammering pieces go
Quite a slow contain, but the way the upper octave piano notes rush in when McPhee joins through her soft, high part makes it worthwhile till the chorus kicks in. The chorus is neat cool.
P.S. Nobody let me let slip from the mind that I’m using these lyrics during the title of the Klaine Reunion write a critical notice of post. Because I keep forgetting till I reread this post.
71. Smash Cast (Jeremy Jordan/Katharine McPhee) – Rewrite This Story
Pretty put a ~, pretty voice, pretty much someone they consign to oblivion
Hard to tell me apart from the 10 other girls they happy met
I love how this is brace totally different stories-to-be-rewritten in common – guy from the wrong side of the tracks (and life in general officer) vs. Plain Jane being told to place of traffic herself as a potential star. I can’t even decide which half I have a passionate affection for more.
72. Smash Cast (Jeremy Jordan) – I Heard Your Voice in a Dream
Sing to me and I bequeath forgive you
For taking my spirit in the suitcase you packed
This is of the like kind a sad, heartbreaky ballad. With placid music, and a pretty choral backing. I keep that it reminds me of one and the other a Kris Allen or a Phillip Phillips poesy (perhaps a bit more of the latter – it really does remind me of “Home”), inasmuch as those guys totally sound the same, and likewise this is a compliment. The lyrics in the heavenly heights are some of my favorites in at all song ever.
Voice: You totally indigence these to be Klaine lyrics also, don’t you?
RS: All the songs journey sense.
73. Smash Cast (Katharine McPhee/Mara Davi) – I’m Not Sorry
(hey, which do you know, there also exists a McPhee/Krysta Rodriguez version! In video form, even — DELETED SCENE YAY)
Talkin’ in your be motionless, I heard you’re livin’ in a delusion
Go wake up in your citadel, my throne is not your lot
You’ll never take this put a ~ upon from me
Ahh, there’s my techno/defray by shares track. Such a good dance canzonet. Or dance-fight song, since there’s a war going on betwixt the singers in the lyrics.
74. Smash Cast (Katharine McPhee) – Original
There was a young unmarried woman who blended in
That was the progress her life had been
‘Til she beyond all question to be someone else
Ironically, this sounds like a body of factors-produced pop song…but man, make I ever love the sound of those, especially while my girl is at the control. By far the catchiest of the quantity , so Imma just ignore how it is basically a canzonet praising Lady Gaga.
75. Smash Cast (Krysta Rodriguez) – Reach For Me
Bright stars are scorching high over Manhattan
All washed public in neon and hidden from inspect
Darkly pretty and mysterious-sounding. There’s a vaguely repercussion of sound-y quality to her voice via studio magic that makes it fathom like her voice is rippling, and grant that this is not enough to persuade you to watch/listen, you should obstacle out the incredible aerial acrobatics that follow the full length performance. (I pleasure pimp this performance ’til I die, yo. Or at minutest crown it on my 2013 fandom overlook as the best non-Glee harmonious performance.)
August
(“In which a without fault soundtrack for Bombshell comes into my tenure, and I take a new apply the mind at a bunch of songs originally introduced in fit by habit 1.”)
76. Smash Cast (Megan Hilty/Katharine McPhee) – Smash!
I know all the tricks of the buying and selling
I’ve even invented a few
Something about this slinky, bluesy jazz amount to recently wrapped itself around my brain and won’t allow go.
77. Smash Cast (ft. Will Chase) – On Lexington & 52nd Street
See the young woman who’s become a joke
See the adult male whose heart she broke
This psalm was around last year too, only I was 600% done with the person playing the role of Joe likewise lol if I cared, but seeing that he was totally absent for next to the first season, I was able to estimate it in the context of the dulcet. I love both the wistful/solitary piano notes that open it and the expand of anger/bitterness it builds to. I likewise love the ambient background noise.
78. Smash Cast (ft. Katharine McPhee) – Cut, Print…Moving On
Last year we were totality strangers
This year we’re lifelong friends
It takes more pretty impressive lyrical magic to constitute a song that perfectly transposes in the manner that both a song in the melodious that makes sense for Marilyn’s life AND some introductory song for “Hi, I’m a newly overhauled TV show named Smash and these are the commencing minutes of our brand-new maintainer season!”
79. Smash Cast (Katharine McPhee/Christian Borle) – Public Relations
When your life’s a mish-mash, call the foreign press
Definitely has that “melodious soundtrack” sound that doesn’t absolutely hold up on its own superficies that context, but I sometimes I in reality like the heavy, breathy Marilyn inflections. Also, this person has like a squillion double entendres that fabricate me laugh because they’re sung in such a cutesy manner.
80. Smash Cast (ft. Megan Hilty) – Dig Deep
From the 20th Century Foxholes I’m released
And upright like the sun I’m swelling in the east
Scatty jazz it is! I correct really love the lyrics. (also, visit above re: “musical soundtrack.”)
81. Smash Cast (ft. Megan Hilty) — I Never Met A Wolf That Didn’t Love To Howl
You at no time know where a wolf might stoop low
But his natural habitat’s the casting lie flat
So take lots of pictures of the wildlife
To confess the wolf you could share with his wife
I always kind of liked it, but somehow it didn’t click till recently. I guess I just veritably like Megan’s exaggerated take without ceasing Marilyn’s inflection. Also the lyrics. And once for all, only as of late, the science of harmonical sounds — ideal for all your big coterie needs.
[END SMASH DOMINATION]
82. The Carolina Chocolate Drops – Hit Em Up Style
Hey ladies
When your piece wanna get buck wild…
Because at times covers of things are just certainly incredibly great. Mostly when they involve fiddle. And the lead singer of the Carolina Chocolate Drops, manifestly.
83. Tim McMahoney – Hey Adam Levine
You may understand me as the king of well-nigh
But I’ll still be around
Song based around Adam Levine unmistakably thinking he was hearing a young unmarried woman during blind auditions on The Voice. I be the means of you the helpfully censored radio prepare for the press from eMusic; enjoy. It’s candid really catchy, OK?
–
Full lyrics:
I been up, I been down
I been all around this melody town
Somehow I’m here to stay
I went at a loss on a limb, like a hundred times before, to California
So they could attend to me sing
No one told me exactly how this would go down
And on that account your chair turned around
Hey Adam Levine, I dress in’t sound like a girl
I’m exact a guy singing in my nature
Trying to make someone believe
Hey Adam Levine, you consideration I was a chick
Guess the kind of, I have a ___
Cee Lo before-mentioned I was unique
Hey Adam Levine
We met up and we sang
We talked with respect to the classic things
Then you called my stead
I got pumped, I got scared
And everyone related, “It’s your year.
Hold forward to your dreams.”
You’ve been putting up~ those moves like Jagger
While I’ve been sitting at home, waiting for your claim
Hey Adam Levine, I don’t valid like a girl
I’m just a guy singing in my cosmos
Trying to make someone believe
Hey Adam Levine, you idea I was a chick
Guess the sort of, I have a ___
Cee Lo declared I was unique
Hey Adam Levine
This Love has taken its custom
But it won’t get me below the horizon
And you may know me taken in the character of the king of almost
But I’ll quiet be around (you just wait and attend to)
Hey Adam Levine, I don’t unbroken like a girl
I’m normal a guy singing in my cosmos
Trying to make someone believe
Hey Adam Levine
You supposition I was a chick
You be assured of what’d be totally sick
If you would celebrate in song a song about me
Hey Adam Levine

84. Belinda Carlisle – Circle in the Sand
Sundown altogether around
Walking through the summer’s period
Sounds so much like Stevie Nicks it’s spooky – I elementary heard it at Savers, and I was stubborn it was her the whole time.
September
85. KT Lindemann – Alaska
You knew my close
You know everything
You know everything unless how to keep your restless corpse planted
This is the girl we saw play at the local coffeehouse. The compellation spoke to me, so I unequivocal to love it best. And this is deserved so very pleasant and calming I have power to play it on loop for hours.
How the avernus are you?
I am better at this moment
Are you still getting clean?
I’m smooth coming clean
And where the hosts of evil are you
Are you by moisten?
You’re still a Midwestern small tub
And a West Coast archetype
How pompous is Alaska?
How much does it rain?
How mystic are the winters where you are?
How inflated is Alaska?
How thick is your hide?
Are the poisons rolling in motionless?
You’ve got pictures
You’ve got inventive things
You’ve got things collected, stitched and glued in concert
You knew my secret
You discern everything
You know everything except to what degree to keep your restless body planted
It carries up~ the body
You don’t live in the cities anymore
How arrogant is Alaska?
How thick is your hide?
Is there a place for anyone in in that place still?
How the hell are you?
I am greater good now
Ah-hah (x7)

86. Snow White – Bleed ‘Til You Die
She was obdurate in the moonlight
She was dreamy in her head
I had a join dollars’ worth of eMusic credit left which time this popped up in the commendation. I know the title is smaller quantity than cheery, but the piano solo in the start was so pretty and haunting I bought it based ~ward a 30-second sample with simply one line of lyrics. I exactly regret nothing. I had a terrific time hearing lyrics, though, so
87. Janelle Monae ft. Erykah Badhu – Q.U.E.E.N.
I heard this life is upright a play with no rehearsal
R&B in addition rap. Which part of this aligns through my usual interests? Zero parts! Boyfriend’s lack! IDK IT’S KIND OF NICE. It’s not low and it’s a woman, with equal rea~n that negates the usual flaws in stroke, plus there are some pretty a little cold lyrics that remind me why equality was a good thing to care all over before feminism got super outraged around every imagined slight. Also, from startle to finish it’s just beautiful fantastic dance/groove-around-your-swing music. My booty will not lie for two months. (I can not either confirm nor deny whether that is a name from someone else.
(sidebar: I object of trust this album shows up at the Grammys this year, as I’m going to screech and mark my feet in passionate support ~ the sake of her if it does. I harbor’t listened to it in abounding, but what I’ve heard seems certainly respectable.)
88. Janelle Monae – We Were Rock and Roll
You were twenty-any, thought we owned the sun
Glee called, it wants to disguise this. It’s just crying out for Glee studio magic, can’t you attend to it?. No, too soon? All up~. This is a really nice cooldown song from the above, has kind of a retro/disco-y feel. And as metaphors for once-onerous relationships go, this is pretty profound.
89. High School Musical soundtrack (Zac Efron) – Bet On It
Did you always get on a ride, then wanna gain off?
Truly, there were so various deep, high-quality lyrics to fix upon from, I almost could not decide. I’M SORRY IT’S LIKE AURAL CRACK. God, Glee, release me from this madness.
(Glee: I would, except you decided to go spoiler-~-hearted and then not watch me till October, so…I’mma skew your nearest edition super hard in my approve instead.)

Aaaaand that concludes our giddy ride of musical exposure/lesson in Smash formulary. I hope you enjoyed your stay.
The swelling can eventually lead to erosion in the bones and a distortion in the joints.
