Whitney Elizabeth Houston (August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012) was an American recording artist, actress, producer, and model. In 2009, the Guinness World Records cited her as the most-awarded female act of all-time. Houston was one of the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 170 million albums, singles and videos worldwide. She released seven studio albums and three movie soundtrack albums, all of which have diamond, multi-platinum, platinum or gold certification. Houston's crossover appeal on the popular music charts, as well as her prominence on MTV, starting with her video for "How Will I Know", influenced several African American female artists to follow in her footsteps.
Houston is the only artist to chart seven consecutive No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hits. She is the second artist behind Elton John and the only female artist to have two number-one Billboard 200 Album awards (formerly "Top Pop Album") on the Billboard magazine year-end charts. Houston's 1985 debut album Whitney Houston became the best-selling debut album by a female act at the time of its release. The album was named Rolling Stone's best album of 1986, and was ranked at number 254 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Her second studio album Whitney (1987) became the first album by a female artist to debut at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (/ˈstɛfəniː dʒʌrməˈnɑːtə/ STE-fə-nee jurr-mə-NAH-tə; born March 28, 1986), known by her stage name Lady Gaga, is an American singer and songwriter. Born and raised in New York City, she primarily studied at the Convent of the Sacred Heart and briefly attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts before withdrawing to focus on her musical career. She began performing in the rock music scene of Manhattan's Lower East Side, and was signed with Streamline Records by the end of 2007. During her employment as a songwriter for the record company, her vocal abilities captured the attention of recording artist Akon, who signed her to his label Kon Live Distribution.
Lady Gaga came to prominence as a recording artist following the release of her debut album The Fame (2008), which was a critical and commercial success that topped charts around the world and included the international number-one singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face". After embarking on the The Fame Ball Tour, she followed the album with The Fame Monster (2009), which spawned the worldwide hit singles "Bad Romance", "Telephone" and "Alejandro". The album's success allowed her to embark on the eighteen-month long Monster Ball Tour, which later became one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. Her most recent album Born This Way (2011) topped the charts of most major markets and generated more international chart-topping singles, including "Born This Way", "Judas" and "The Edge of Glory". Besides her musical career, she involves herself with humanitarian causes and LGBT activism.
I am lost in the crowd
I'm standing in line
I'm feeling so down
And i am full of doubt
He's not the one
Take notice,hear me out
I want him, need him
And you, always will pull me through
I'm tired
This games so dumb
He never played,
His race is won
IÂ'm tired,
Can't smile no more
i'll sure cave in, just like before
I want him, need him
And you always will pull me through
And i want him, need him
And you always will pull me through
I want him, need him
And you always will pull me through
And i want him, need him
And you always will pull me through
And i...want him, need him
And i...want him, need him
And i...want him, need him
Hoping... feeling...
I will come back to you
And hold you in my arms
And I...
I know you're wrong but
I can't change a single thing
It's like it's ment to be!
Inside I feared to find it...
That you cannot stand the fact
I'm not in love with you!
And I...
I've got the feeling
That I've really had enough
It had to end right here!
There was nothing left to lose
Despite the time we've spent...
Nothing left for you
And I...
Still had the feeling
I won't find in you what I still sought
It's been a while how have you been doing
Do you over think about me and you and
All the things we used to do
The times that we shared
Well I've been looking for love and affection
It's brought me back in your direction
Even though we've been apart
Your part of my soul
Ok I know (I know I was a fool)
A fool (To lose my faith in you)
But girl before you go
I want you to know
That I think of you every day, baby
And I can't seem to get away
from these feelings
And I, I need to tell you some how
That I need your love right now
Looking back I can see things clearly
The mistakes that I paid for dearly
Taking love for granted only leaves you alone
Well if we talked you would understand that
Time has made me a better man and
With your love behind me there's nowhere I can't go
So take a chance (Just take a chance on me)
And you'll see (It's where you need to be)
If your heart it tells you so
You'll know what I know
That I think of you every day, baby
And I can't seem to get away from these feelings
And I, I need to tell you some how
That I need your love right now
Right now is the time for both of us
To put aside our differences and trust
All the words I never used to say
Now I've found a way
(Now I've found a way)
That I think of you every day, baby
(I think of you, I think of you, baby)
And I can't seem to get away from these feelings
(I can't seem to, I can't seem to, get away, get away)
And I, I need to tell you some how
(Some how)
That I need your love (Your love, right now)
(Right now)
That I think of you every day, baby
(baby)
And I can't seem to get away from these feelings
(I can't seem..
From these feelings)
And I, I need to tell you some how
That I need your love right now
[verse 1]
There's a name so powerful words can't describe
When spoken demons tremble
And all creation must bow down
[b-section]
Awesome are your ways
Everyday the same
And majesty is your name
[hook]
And i/give you all my worship
And i/wanna sing your praise
And i/long to honor you more than yesterday
[verse 2]
There is not any other who can compare
To your word your life
Your love's ultimate sacrifice
[b-section]
[hook]
[bridge]
You're everything no one else can be
You filled every space that was empty
Lord you are everything to me
[hook]
I don't need me a basketball player
All I need is somebody that's down for me
And he don't have to have money
His love is just like honey
It's so sweet to me
He can have everythin' in this world
But he'll sacrifice it all for me
And I made up my mind
I'm in love this time
And it feels so real
And I know that he won't break my heart
And I know that we won't ever part
It's time, time for us to settle down
And I wanna be with him forever
They can't say that I am crazy
For makin' him my baby
Bought his flowers for me
See I've done been through many changes
But this one I ain't changin'
This one's staying the same
I can have everythin' in this world
But I'll sacrifice it all for him
And I made up my mind
I'm in love this time
And it feels so real
And I know that he won't break my heart
And I know that we won't ever part
And it's time, time for us to settle down
And I wanna be with him forever
I Love you
And all of the things that you do
Oh baby please, I need you
So believe me, I do
'Cause I love you
And every little thing baby, you do
They don't know how I feel
'Cause I know this is real
And I know that he won't break my heart
And I know that we won't ever part
And it's time, time for us to settle down
And I wanna be with him forever
And I know that he won't break my heart
And I know that we won't ever part
And it's time, time for us to settle down
And I wanna be with him forever
[Verse 1]
It's right now I see it all appear in a brighter light
Right now I lose myself within my own truth
Right now I'm wishing things would slow down
Cause I can't breathe no more and I don't even wanna try
[Chorus]
I became my own enemy
I would like to speak
But silence follows the rhythm
It all seems to be so crazy
I don't lead myself no more
[Verse 2]
It's right now this is my last shot the hardest part
Can't count on myself anymore
Right now I'm conscious of everything around me
Watch me bleed
Cause I can't breathe no more and I don't even wanna try
[Chorus]
I became my own enemy
I would like to speak
But silence follows the rhythm
It all seems to be so crazy
I don't lead myself no more
[Chorus]
I became my own enemy
I would like to speak
But silence follows the rhythm
It all seems to be so crazy
I don't care at all
[Chorus]
I became my own enemy
I would like to speak
But violence follows the rhythm
It all seems to be so crazy
I don't lead myself no more
i am lost in the crowd
i'm standing in line
i'm feeling so down
and i am full of doubt
she's not the one that noticed
hear me out
and i want her, need her
and you always will pull me through
i'm tired
this games so dumb
she never played, her races won
i'm tired
can't smile no more
i've sure caved in just like before
and i want her, need her
and you always will pull me through
and i want her, need her
and you always will pull me through
i want her, need her
and you always will pull me through
and i want her, need her
and you always will pull me through
and i want her, need her
and i want her, need her
and i want her, need her
