Scouting for Girls - Gotta Keep Smiling

Hi folks!

I'm feeling a wee bit sheepish here. Sorry for the absence. I am truly down in a rut and for several days now, I have been trying to get out of the depression and the writer's block. But as what good psychologists say, nothing actually gets people out of depression except that one day they feel much better.

So for those who are wondering where I have been, never mind that. I'm here now.

I would like to start off with this very nice song I across two days ago.

Featured song: "Gotta Keep Smiling" by Scouting for Girls (2010) [Pop rock]












The lyrics of the song and the wonderful upbeat melody sure got me hooked. Did you listen to it? I must have listened to it numerous times already (check my Last.fm account).

I came across this song while watching this new TV series called "Hellcats". Over the next few posts, you may find songs that I discovered from Hellcats. Although the series is relatively new, it stars Aly Michalka (whose song I featured here) and Ashley Tisdale of High School Musical. I shall ponder more about Hellcats some other time, but I would like to say that the series made me jump back on my feet. The music in the series simply rocks!

The song Gotta Keep Smiling is by Scouting for Girls, a British pop band that was formed in 2005. The song is the B-side of their hit single "This Ain't a Love Song" (also a nice empowering song), but Gotta Keep Smiling is rather hard to find. I did my best, so I hope you will enjoy it.

So, until the next post, you gaiz.

Peace!

Lyrics:

"Gotta Keep Smiling" by Scouting for Girls
When a frown is the best you can do.
When you're down - when you're down in a bad place.
You with the sad face

When you're stuck, when you're falling apart.
In a rut, yet you're stuck with excuses,
Oh baby I'm useless.

Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, messed up world.
Are you taking the mick, cos ain't life a bitch sometimes ?

You got to keep smiling, through the thunder and lightning.
You got to keep trying, don't cry before you're hurt.
You got to keep Smiling through the thunder and lightning
You got to keep fighting because things can't get no worse.

Take a break. Take a day to relax.
Getaway - getaway to the sunshine,
throw me a lifeline

When life is hard, when life is just unfair,
We'll have a laugh - have a laugh at the rat race,
we'll make a new place

Boys will be boys, girls will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, messed up world.
Are you taking the mick, ain't life a bitch sometimes?

You got to keep smiling, through the thunder and lightning.
You got to keep trying, don't cry before you're hurt.
You got to keep Smiling through the thunder and lightning
You got to keep fighting because things can't get no worse.
