"For the first time, he heard something that he knew to be music. He heard people singing. Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too.

...But perhaps, it was only an echo."



- Lois Lowry,
The Giver, Ch. 23

“What if we had ideas that could think for themselves?
What if one day our dreams no longer needed us?
When these things occur and are held to be true, the time will be upon us
The time of angels”

Doctor Who 5x04 - The Time of Angels

I'm not weird, I'm just very awkward

When you're a kid, they tell you it's all 'Grow up. Get a job. Get married. Get a house. Have a kid, and that's it.' But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It's so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.


Midget small, ultra blonde hair, blue eyed and fidgety.
I'm not weird, I'm just very awkward. The worst part of being as awkward as i am is that i know I'm doing it. I know I'm being irrationally awkward but i can't stop, it's something i swear that's been hardwired in me since birth!

If anything i'm a reader.
Weddings, school trips, family outings, family meals, birthday's and what have you, my mum would have to search and question me before such events. Because if she didn't, then the book would be hidden inside some pocket or other and as soon as whatever it was got under way i'd be found in a corner reading. That's just who i was. I'm not weird, i'm just very very awkward, i have suffered my whole life from being misunderstood, but I would have suffered a hell of a lot more if i had been understood....

-&-
Now back to the present, i'm 16 years old and slightly grazing the tiny height of 4ft 10 (yes, midget) i'm attending collage... And well lets just say it's rare now for me not to have at least a small book with me wherever i may go.
---

I will eventually grow up and live a life people approve of....(maybe) =P

Girls Aloud: Let's get Untouchable by Girls Aloud into the Top 10



[-Link-]
Let's get Untouchable by Girls Aloud into the Top 10 is on Facebook...

Girls Aloud to The Top
Because Top 10 records are Untouchable

On May 3rd 2009 Girls Aloud’s 21st single, ‘Untouchable’ became the first to miss the UK top ten upon its official release, breaking a string of consecutive hits that ran back to their debut single Sound Of The Underground in 2002.

With its dazzling sci-fi inspired video, the most expensive produced by the band, and with many fans judging it not only one of the best songs of their Out Of Control album, but of their career as a whole, many were disappointed at the track stalling at number 11 in the charts.

The objective is to get Untouchable back in the top 10. But for that, we need your help.

To do this, we are going to choose a specific week when we will proceed to download the song and/or its remixes from any download site that counts towards the chart.

Girls Aloud's Nadine Coyle herself has shown her support of the campaign on popular social networking site Twitter:

'Some very kind friends have an idea.. Go to http://www.tinyurl.com/untouchabletop10 what a supportive group we have!! Your the best!!'

Help make Untouchable top 10 in 2010!


The Plan:

The objective is to get Untouchable back in the top 10. To do this, we are going to choose a specific week when we will proceed to download the song and/or its remixes from any download site that counts towards the chart.

Guide to Download

The sites that you can use to download the song/remixes that WILL count towards the official charts are:

* iTunes
7Digital
Play.com
Hmv
Amazon
*


If you want to buy the song more than once, don't buy it from the same shop. Ie. You want to buy 5 copies, buy one from iTunes, one from 7Digital, one from Play, one from HMV and one from Amazon. If you get the song 5 times into your shopping cart in the same shop, it will only count as ONE SALE and you will have wasted your money.

DON'T start downloading the song until we choose the week. If you download it now it won't have any effect, we all need to download the song at once on the same week.

IF YOU DONT LIVE IN THE UK THEN DONT BUY IT! Purchases out of the UK don't contribute to the charts.

TESCO DOWNLOADS MAY NOT COUNT! We are waiting for confirmation on whether tesco downloads contribute to the the charts or not.

I love this idea, for what reason i have no idea. It's a good song, but i honestly have no idea how this is gonna end. Actually, i think it will fail.

...The lyrics are cute XP

Girls Aloud - Untouchable Lyrics

Through wind and rain we got here
Now we’re flying babe with no fear
We’ve been doing pain for so long
When I stare in your eyes it’s all gone
Through wind and rain we burn bright
Learn to fly through flames and hold tight
With so many ways to go wrong
But when I look in your eyes they’re all gone

And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you’re around ooh we’re untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren’t ever gonna fall
We’re safe and sound and we’re untouchable

It’s only real when you’re not around
I’m walking in the rain the sun goes down (oh, oh)
And only love can save us now
I need you hear again to show me how (oh, oh)

I know that love shouldn’t be so hard
And sometimes we’re standing in the dark
But you light up everywhere I go
And I know a heart shouldn’t beat so hard
And sometimes we’re swimming with the sharks
But you light up and keep me out the cold

And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you’re around ooh we’re untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren’t ever gonna fall
We’re safe and sound and we’re untouchable

It’s only real when you’re not around
The candle in my head is burning out (oh, oh)
I know that love shouldn’t be so hard
And sometimes we’re standing in the dark
But you light up everywhere I go
And I know a heart shouldn’t beat so hard
And sometimes we’re swimming with the sharks
But you light up and keep me out the cold

And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you’re around ooh we’re untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren’t ever gonna fall
We’re safe and sound and we’re untouchable

Whenever you’re gone, gone
They wait at the door
And everything’s hurting like a before
Without any meaning
We’re just skin and bone
Like beautiful robots dancing alone

Whenever you’re gone, gone
They wait at the door
And everything’s hurting like a bore
Without any meaning
We’re just skin and bone
Like beautiful robots dancing alone

And in my dreams it feels like we are forty stories tall
When you’re around ooh we’re untouchable
And in my dreams it feels like we aren’t ever gonna fall
We’re safe and sound and we’re untouchable
