My artist of the moment is Craig David. He is a totally awesome R&B artist from Southampton, UK. He has his cd out now, "Born to Do It" and it's absolutely great! It has a mix of fast and slow songs, and I play it nonstop every day.
Anyway, below are just little bits of lyrics of songs. You know, snatches of the song that sort of stick in your head, and you couldn't get them out even with the jaws of life? Here they are...

How do you explain the way,
the stars just hang, way up in the sky?
And how do you explain the way,
rain goes away, whenever you walk by?
It's a mystery, what you've done for me.
I'm in a place I've never been.
I knocked on your door, hundred times before,
when you suddenly let me in.
I'm holding on, waiting for your call.
It's simple but I can't explain this.
I'm sinking down, I feel like I could die.
I'm falling off I don't know why.
So I might try, to leave this all behind.
I know tomorrow's not so bright now.
I'll say goodbye, 'cause nothing good can last.
Today, I don't know why, I thought that it was real.
But I guess it's no big deal.
And he's got posters on the wall, of all the girls he wish she was
And he means everything to her.
And he has pictures on the wall,of all the girls he loved before,
and she knows all his favourite songs.
I never thought, I'd die alone,
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall.
No wonder it was never plugged in at all.
Say it ain't so, I will not go.
Turn the lights off, carry me home.
Late night, come home.
Work sucks, I know.
Why does it feel the same?
To fall in love but break it off?
And if young love is just a game then,
I must have missed the kick off.
I haven't been this scared, in a long time.
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your Valentine.
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody,
this world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me.
I'm ripe with things to say,
the words rot and fall away
What stupid poem, could fix this home?
I'd read it every day.
If this is what he wants,
and it's what she wants,
then why's there so much pain?
And then I saw her standing there,
With green eyes and long blonde hair.
She wasn't wearing underwear.
At least I prayed that, she might be the one.
Maybe we'd have some fun,
maybe we'd watch the sun rise,
But that night I learned some girls try too hard.
That's about the time that she broke up with me,
No one should take themselves so seriously.
With many years ahead to fall in line,
Why would she risk out on me?
I never want to act my age.
What's my age again?
When I called you on the phone,
said you're all alone.
I said that you can drive by my way.
You said I, was the only one,
felt the time had come; for us to keep it real.
Catch me in apartment 543.
Dial my number if you wanna just talk to me.
999 in an emergency, I'll be everything you need.
Satisfaction guarenteed.
Told me 'bout a Jacuzzi, sounded intresting.
So I jumped right in.
All calls diverted to answer phone,
Please leave a message after the tone.
In you letter, it said
You wanted to talk to me, (talk, talk to me),
That you're missing my love and
asking am I gonna give it to you?
I never meant to drive you away from me. I should have listened to you baby,
and what you had to say.
Never knew how much you feel for somebody
until you've let them go.
And you find out it's too late
to let your feelings show.
And even though I've done you so wrong,
don't you know, like I know?
I didn't realise that there's no other remedy to numb this pain.
And if you come back in my life,
maybe I can start to live again.
Made out way over to the dance floor.
Got our groove on, dancing (yeah) real hardcore.
From the front to the back that's where I was at,
Southampton mas do it like that.
Desparate for changing,
Starving for truth,
I'm closer to where I started,
While chasing after you.
I'm falling even more in love with you,
Letting go of all I've held on to,
I'm standing here until you make me move,
I'm hanging by a moment here with you.
I'll be waving my hand,
Watching you drown,
Watching you scream, quiet or loud.
And maybe you should sleep,
And maybe you just need, a friend,
As clumsy as you've been.
Pay your surgon very well to break the spell of aging,
Celebrity skin, is this your chin,
Or is that war you're waging?
She's taking her time, making up the reasons,
to justify all the hurt inside
She's saying "Love is like a barren place,
and reaching out for human faith
is like a journey I just don't have a map for."
We twist and turn where angels burn,
Like fallen soldiers we will learn,
Once forgotten, twice removed,
Love will be the death...
The death of you.
The stars and planets taking shape,
a stolen kiss has come too late.
Time manipulates your heart,
Preconceptions torn apart,
Begin to doubt my state of mind.
It's been awhile, since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile, since I said I'm sorry,
It's been awhile, since I've seen the way, the candle lights your face,
And it's been awile, but I can still remember just the way you taste.
