True To Me :: Metro Station

So, I have been wanting to post a song by Metro Station for a while now (ever since Dylan posted their Shake It song, I've been a little hooked on the group)...but I needed to wait so we wouldn't be too redundant...I figure that a couple days over a month is ok :) I don't know what it is about emo-punk boy bands, but I've been totally diggin them this year - especially now that it's summer! they just make me want to have a dance party outside, fully equipped with a pool, a bbq, margaritas and friends :) doesn't that sound like a good time?

Actually, as I write this blog, I am starting to reflect on what kinds of music I listen to during the different seasons and it's sorta funny and predictable...Spring/Summer time = happy fun dance around rockin music...Fall/Winter = slower, calm, folky music.

ANYWAY....

Metro Station is pretty sweet. They're relatively new, and sweet combo of electronic and pop. Plus, two of the band members have an odd connection...Trace Cyrus and Mason Musso are the older siblings of Miley Cyrus and Mitchel Musso (who star in the Disney show Hannah Montana)...seems like the Cyrus siblings are having a better go a the music industry than their pops - and that's totally fine by me :) I dig their music more than i dig country, so hurray for that.

Oddly enough, Metro Station will be touring on the Soundtrack of Your Summer tour (I just looked this up and got creeped out that the reference to Summer...). So, with all this neat-o background info, here's another song from Metro Station!

Enjoy.
The end.

Meggo.









True To Me::Metro Station
She turned me on
But now I'm shaking
She shoots it in
And I keep taking

They don't see
She's down with me tonight
(Time to push off)

She's such a rush
She's such a crush
She's one in a million
She's such a rush
Can't get enough
She's pumping through my veins
She's too fun to be so gone with me
Too good to be true to me

She's over my head
She's all I need
I'm so strung out
She's out of my league

They don't see
She's down with me tonight
(Time to push off)

She's such a rush
She's such a crush
She's one in a million
She's such a rush
Can't get enough
She's pumping through my veins
She's too fun to be so gone with me
Too good to be true to me

Oh, oh, she's too good to be true
I'm hooked up and ? too
Can't you see she's the sweat on the sheets?
Can't you see she's all that I need?
Can't you see she's all that I see?

She's such a rush
She's such a crush
She's one in a million
She's such a rush
Can't get enough
She's pumping through my veins
She's too fun to be so gone with me
Too good to be true to me
Too good to be true to me
Too good to be true to me

Bonus Song!!!! This one goes out to Kelsey :)

Shake It :: Metro Station

This song goes out to all present (and past, and future I suppose) members of Luther College Pride in all it's incarnations (Aware, GLBTA Flag). If you were fortunate enough to either attend the MBLGTACC conference in a car of Luther kids, or if got to shake your booty at Drag Ball 2008 "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," you have probably heard this song before. Or you might just be really cool and on top of your music.

Metro Station are a myspace success story. Founding members Trace Cyrus and and Mason Musso actually recruited Blake Healy and Anthony Improgo through myspace, and then they quickly climbed to the top of the myspace unsigned band's charts. Columbia's Walking Eye program found them through myspace, and signed them shortly after. Since then they've toured with Cobra Starship, and opened for Panic at the Disco.

This particular track was an iTunes free song of the week back in October, and as anyone familiar with apple can figure out, any group that gets selected to have an iTunes free song of the day is probably going to hit it big shortly after that. (Feist, Yael Naim, countless other songs used in apple ads and given away as free tracks of the week).

As I mentioned earlier, it's been a big hit with certain Luther folk this semester, and has made it into the coveted top five of my "Getting Ready in the Morning" playlist. So without further ado, Metro Station's "Shake It"






Let's drop!
Yeah, come on

I'll take you home
If you don't leave me at the front door
(Leave me at the front door)
Your body's cold
But girl, we're gettin' so warm
And I was thinking of ways
That I could get inside
(Get inside)

Tonight you're falling in love
Let me go now
This feeling's tearing me up
Here we go now

Chorus
Now if she does it like this
Will you do it like that?
Now if she touches like this
Will you touch her like that?
Now if she moves like this
Will you move her like that?
Come on, shake, shake
Shake, shake, shake it

Shake, shake
Shake, shake, lets shake it

Shake, shake,
Shake, shake, lets shake it

Shake, shake,
Shake, shake, lets shake it

Shake, shake,
Shake, shake, lets shake it

Your lips tremble
But your eyes are in a straight stare
(In a straight stare)
We're on the bed
But your clothes are laying right there
And I was thinking of places
That I could hide
(I could hide)

Tonight you're falling in love
Let me go now
This feeling's tearing me up
Here we go now

Chorus

I saw you dancing
And I couldn't get you off my mind
I could tell that you could tell
That I was taking my time
But I was thinking of ways
To get you to stay tonight
Body's shaking
Tell me off so I can turn off the lights

Chorus
