i must admit, i haven't watched it in a LOOOOONG time. i only tune in sometimes for performances.
last night was the first night in a long time that i watched a few of the skits. omg, i barely recognize some of the cast! it would've been okay if the skits were funny but wtf? i felt so awful for Halle Berry.
well, i really tuned in because of Britney. i missed the beginning monologue but i did catch her performances.
Me Against The Music: when i first heard this at the Superbowl show, i must say i remember hating it. either it's grown on me or they changed it a little bit but i actually like the SNL version. it's very catchy and it's more bass-driven this time around. i also love Madonna's part in it. the choreography is a bit similar to some of Brit's past, i guess you can say it's a bit recycled. i didn't really mind since Brit is mesmerizing whatever dance movement she does. as for the lip-synching? i don't see why everyone gets upset over it. she always does this whenever she does a fast-paced choreographed number, you'd think we'd be used to this by now. i can honestly say that i will never see her do a rigorous dance number and sing live at the same time in my lifetime.
Everytime: i had some trepidation regarding her upcoming cd but after hearing "Everytime", i am so gungho about getting it now. wow, i really, really LOVE this song! it's so simple, sweet, and sad. i love the arrangement(piano, violin, harp) as well as the lyrics. i just can tell it's gonna be huge. this is also the very first time that i actually like a Britney ballad. her performance wasn't flawless but it was definitely one of her most vulnerable and one of her finest, by Britney standards. i loved it so much that i've rewound and played my tape over and over since the show aired. people are definitely gonna wonder if it's about Justin. my opinion? it WAS about him prolly when it was written but i don't think the song applies to the present anymore. the girl's moved on(well, i sure hope so because Justin was not a gentleman, LOL).
anyway, i got the file at britneybits.com. for now, here are the lyrics(not sure if they're accurate) but judge for yourself:
Come notice me and take my hand
So why are we strangers when
our love is strong?
Why carry on without me?
Chorus:
And everytime I try to fly i fall
without my wings i feel so small
i guess i need you baby
and everytime i see you in my dreams
i see your face
it's haunting me
i guess i need you baby
i make believe that you are here
that's the only way i see clear
what have i done?
you seem to move on easy
Repeat Chorus
(something not very clear and audible)
please forgive me
my weakness caused you pain
and this song's my sorry(not sure if correct)
at night i pray
that soon your face will fade away
Repeat Chorus
after all...
after all...
it's a very beautiful song. it's the best Britney ballad ever. it's gonna be huge.
