I found this video on YouTube. Not the actual music video, and I can't figure out who made it, but nonetheless a super video, and a great song by the David Crowder band.

Unconditional love
That I Would Be Good
- Alanis Morissette (Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie)
That I would be good even if I did nothing
That I would be good even if I got the thumbs down
That I would be good if I got and stayed sick
That I would be good even if I gained ten pounds
That I would be fine even even if I went bankrupt
That I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
That I would be great if I was no longer queen
That I would be grand if I was not all knowing
That I would be loved even when I numb myself
That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
That I would be loved even when I was fuming
That I would be good even if I was clingy
That I would be good even if I lost sanity
That I would be good
Whether with or without you

John Mayer!!
Yep... tonight I was at the Bell centre as Johnny Mayer rocked the house!
What a talented guitarist! What a beautiful voice! What brilliant lyrics! WooooO!
John Mayer puts on a great show. He is one of my all-time favourite artists. What's yours? I like hearing about others' music tastes.
Today I finished my first exam and a large computer science assignment, so it was nice to take a little break, relax and listen to some really awesome music.
My friend Jozef and I went to the concert together. We've had tickets since Feb 26th and I've been so excited about it! We sat and stood and clapped and danced and yelled. It was pretty chill and relaxed. But the girls behind us screaming "WE LOVE YOU, JOHN! YOU'RE SO HOT!" didn't really enhance the experience. However, I have to admit that with the way he dances and the way his curls bounce around when he bobs his head, I think he's pretty cute.
The show was great, but it did leave me a little unsatisfied. He didn't play some of my favourites, like Slow Dancing in a Burning Room, Come Back to Bed, Something's Missing and Bold as Love. Here's what he did play (in this order):
1. Vultures
2. Good Love is on the Way
3. Why Georgia (my favourite from his first album)
4. Some older song that I didn't know the name of, maybe from Room for Squares
5. No Such Thing (with the best guitar solo from the whole concert)
6. The Heart of Life (with an added line from In Repair)
7. Bigger Than My Body
8. I Don't Trust Myself (With Loving You)
9. Belief
10. Waiting on the World to Change
11. Gravity
12. Your Body is a Wonderland
13. I'm Gonna Find Another You
That's from memory... pretty good, eh?
Here's looking forward to his next album!

No cars go
We know a place where no planes go
We know a place where no ships go
No cars go
No cars go
Where we know
We know a place no spaceships go
We know a place where no subs go
No cars go
No cars go
Where we know
Us kids know
No cars go
We know a place where no ships go
No cars go
No cars go
Where we know
We know a place no spaceships go
We know a place where no subs go
No cars go
No cars go

John Mayer in concert
John Mayer tickets are not, in fact, as expensive as I originally thought!!
This Saturday, my friend Jozef will be picking up 2 tickets: $60 each!!!
"Down to the wire
I wanted water but
But I'll walk through the fire
If this is what it takes
To take me even higher
Then I'll come through
Like I do
When the world keeps
Testing me, testing me, testing me"

Music News
I've just been hanging out and relaxing these past couple days at home. It's been great.
Catching up on listening to music... checking out concert dates! John Mayer is coming to the Bell Centre (Montreal), but tickets are $124 for nose bleed section... and up to $500 for good seats. Yikes!! I was waiting and waiting for him to come to Canada with the Continuum tour, but if I can't get decent seats for $100 or less, then I'm probably not going :(.
Oh! And I really really really like Anberlin's new "Cities" CD.
Check out this track:
"Unwinding Cable Car"
You're motive and stable
You're like an unwinding cable car
Listening for voices but it's the choices that make us who we are
Go your own way, even seasons have changed
Just burn those new leaves over
So self-absorbed
You'll seem to ignore the prayers that have already gone above
Chorus:
This is the correlation of salvation and love
Don't drop your arms
Don't drop your arms, I've got your heart
With quiet words I'll lead you in
La lalalala, la la la, la lala, la
La lalalala, la la la, la lala, la
Backing away from the problem of pain
You never had a home
You've been misguided, you're hiding in shadows for so very long
Don't you believe that you've been deceived
That you're no better than
The hair in your eyes will never disguise
What you're really thinking of
[Chorus X 2]
You're so brilliant, don't soon forget
You're so brilliant, graze much your heart
You're so brilliant, don't soon forget
You're so brilliant, graze much your heart
You're so brilliant (This is the correlation)
Don't soon forget (Between salvation and love, don't drop your arms)
You're so brilliant (I've got your heart)
Graze much your heart (With quiet words I'll lead you in and out of the dark)
[Chorus X 2]

How long does it take to heal?
Six months since you held me like you wanted to;
Sixty-four days between hello and goodbye.
Two times we lay there so still, so close.
Swing.
Seven days of silence when your love made me cry.
One day, 6 boxes, 5 bags... my car.
Eight phone calls of words that weren't said.
Two arms the emptiest they've ever been,
A million thoughts of you congested my head.
Chorus:
Hooooow long
How long, how looooong?
Hooooow long my dear,
Does it take to heal?
Three weekends of downcast eyes, lost smiles,
Four thousand texts overflowed from my heart.
Nine times I convinced myself it was over,
And yet,
There were five times more that I'd never part.
Sixteen kleenexes, 99 tears.
Three close friends, hot tea, chocolate swirl.
Time and time again I think about it; Talk about it.
I AM pursuable, a special kinda girl.
And it's eight weeks since I've seen you
With those two tired eyes that peered into mine.
And told me without saying a single word
Once we'd been right, and I'll be fine.
Sixty-four days between hello and goodbye.
Two times we lay there so still, so close.
Swing.
Seven days of silence when your love made me cry.
One day, 6 boxes, 5 bags... my car.
Eight phone calls of words that weren't said.
Two arms the emptiest they've ever been,
A million thoughts of you congested my head.
Chorus:
Hooooow long
How long, how looooong?
Hooooow long my dear,
Does it take to heal?
Three weekends of downcast eyes, lost smiles,

And yet,
There were five times more that I'd never part.
Sixteen kleenexes, 99 tears.
Three close friends, hot tea, chocolate swirl.
Time and time again I think about it; Talk about it.
I AM pursuable, a special kinda girl.
And it's eight weeks since I've seen you
With those two tired eyes that peered into mine.
And told me without saying a single word
Once we'd been right, and I'll be fine.

5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don’t lie and try to pretend you’re cool…
Opening Credits: 7 Days - Craig David
Waking Up: Smoke - Natalie Imbruglia
Monday: (Nice to Meet You) Anyway - Craig David
Fight Song: Mobile - Avril Lavigne
Breaking Up: Introduction - Hot Hot Heat
Prom: Oh Yeah - Yello

Inertia Dance
Hey... lots of stuff to post about today!
I just found out when my dance group is having the major performance of the year. If you're in the Montreal/McGill area, or just feel like coming to visit, the weekend of the show, March 10th and 11th, would be a great time to come!
The theme is "Revolution". I'll be dancing in several pieces in the show as well as choreographing. (If I can get my butt moving. There's a lot of work to do because choreography starts in January. I would like to pick a piece of music sooner rather than later, but I haven't heard anything yet that is exactly what I want: slow and a little eerie, but with vocals... I guess I'll have to keep searching!)
