Happy 50th Birthday Whitney Houston!

Dear Whitney,

Happy 50th Birthday Darling! It's barely a year and a half ago that you left us alone down here; and let me tell you, you're still sorely missed although it's gone a bit quiet since. But on you birthday I hope you're having a party 'up there'. Let them spoil you rotten. You deserve it!

Made By Monkeys - I Try - Rauhofer Roxy Mix (2003)

Made By Monkeys might seem like a weird stage name to record under, but the duo of Astrochimp and M Keys has the musical chops to call themselves whatever they like and get away with it. Both met at school at a very early age and have been producing music ever since. Astrochimp handles the drum programming, mixing and engineering and M Keys is the keyboard prodigy who wrote his first composition at the age of five.
'I Try' was their first foray into the world of dance music that accounts for the truly fresh take on club music they have devised. The track debuted at US(Dance)#1 in May of 2003 and continued to chart on the top 50 for 26 weeks, making it the longest charting track of the year for club play. 'I Try' was heavily supported by international DJs like Paul Oakenfold, Sasha & Digweed, Pete Tong and Steve Lawler. The track was introduced by Peter Rauhofer on Live@Roxy2 CD (where I pricked up my ears) and was featured on Ministry Of Sound Annual 2004. The Monkeys have a live explosive performance much like Daft Punk, and the Chemical Brothers that must be seen.

Made By Monkeys - I Try - Peter Rauhofer Roxy Mix (2003)



Lyrics:

Every second passes without me releasing all the thoughts... Let you go...
Every time I close my eyes, I see your face and I feel so... Why would you go?

And I Try... To win you over
And I Try... To make you stay
And I Try... To make you love me; God, I try!

Is that someone else making you happy; Something that I couldn't do!
I hope is that you are happy, cause I'm tired trying my all with you!

And I Try... To win you over!
And I Try... To make you stay!
And I Try... To make you love me

And I try
Yes I try
And I try
And I try
God I try

Lyrics:

Tyfoon
Universal Love
So look at the world,
tell me what you see
There must be a better place
for you and me
We're waiting for so long,... ????
Turn these pages, it's history
Hope, hope, let's pray for peace
Everybody knows that why is a disease
So let's all change our ways together
We dream of the world
let's keep up the faith
There's a better place for you and me
Universal love
We dream of the world
let's keep up the faith
There's a better place for you and me
Universal love
So look at the sea,
it's dark and blue
The sun is always shining
for me and you
Never asking ??? together we will fly
It's time to solve this mystery
Pain, pain, crying in the rain
Everybody knows that why is not a game
So let's all change our ways together
We dream of the world
let's keep up the faith
There's a better place for you and me
Universal love
We dream of the world
We dream of the world
let's keep up the faith
let's keep up the faith
There's a better place for you and me
A place for you and me
Universal love
Universal love
We dream of the world
We dream of the world
let's keep up the faith
let's keep up the faith
There's a better place for you and me
A place for you and me
Universal love
Universal love
Tyfoon

Lyrics:

You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down
But it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone-hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone-hard as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

Lyrics:

It's a cruel, cruel world to face on your own
A heavy cross to carry along
The lights are on but everyone's gone
And it's cruel

It's a funny way to make ends meet
When the lights are out on every street
It feels alright but never complete
Without joy

I checked you
If it's already been done, undo it
It takes two
It's up to me and you to prove it

On the rainy nights, even the coldest days
You're moments ago but seconds away
The principal of nature, it's true but
It's a cruel world

We can play it safe or play it cool
Follow the leader or make up all the rules
Whatever you want, the choice is yours
So choose

I checked you
If it's already been done, undo it
It takes two
It's up to me and you to prove it

I trust you
It's already been done, undo it
It takes two
It's up to me and you to prove it

I checked you
If it's already been done, undo it
It takes two
It's up to me and you to prove it

I trust you
