Title: Bonnie Mckee
Post by: Manda on July 21, 2004, 09:11:32 pm
Oh my god, I heard her song, "somebody" on Launch Cast Love station, and I loved it.

I was constantly waiting to hear it again, and when I did I wrote down all the info their was about her.

She has such a beautiful voice.

http://www.bonniemckee.com

Her song is "Somebody" you might have heard it from the movie, "Win a Date With Tad Hamilton"

Its a great song and you MUST check her out.
On her site you can listen to her songs, its a little player that where you can listen to like 4 songs and it has a bunch of stuff that you can do involving her.

Join her e-mail list (if you want, please!!!), your going to love her.

Well I hope you all love her as much as I do right now.

:heart:

You must support Bonnie Mckee!!!!  :wink:  :D

Thanks Everyone

Yup I've been a huge fan of hers for a long time. Her record is FINALLY coming out in August, after many years of recording and recording more and then recording more... You can buy her 4-track EP at iTunes. I was obsessed w/ it in January and listened to it ALL the time.  Her album is going to be amazing.

pretty sure the release date is August 24.  her site isn't updated all that often, unfortunately.

there's an extra track on iTunes too, the acoustic version of "somebody" and a new remix of it for the album.  i think the 2 album verstions are slightly different.

guys: PLEASE join her street team.  for her to be a success she needs help from fans that enjoy her music and speak about it positively.  there are definitely not enough people on the team yet, so please join and then spread the word.  she deserves to be heard and it can only happen if people support her and spread the word:

TROUBLE

Ah yes I remember too well
How hard I tried avoiding your spell
It was a cold October night
It was a far from sober night
And I was taken at first sight
And this was much to your delight

I'd heard that you were looking for prey
Hungry for a different girl everyday
But you were so sly (?) coming in
I wouldn't fight I let you win
Although the blood upon your chin
Told me exactly where you'd been

Trouble... trouble... (troublemaker)

Who would have thought I'd ever let somebody get to me
Who would have thought I'd ever give a damn
I gave to you the one thing that I can never retrieve
And I am leaving my heart bleeding in my hands

You told me all about your dreams
You were so deep, or so it seemed
Although I'm young I'm not naive
I am not easy to deceive

I see the danger that lies beyond your eyes
And I wanna scream when you're rubbing on my thighs
Ooh I know I should but I can't say no
Oh troublemaker gotta let you go

Trouble...trouble...troublemaker

Who would have thought I'd ever let somebody get to me
Who would have thought I'd ever give a damn
I gave to you the one thing that I can never retrieve
And I am leaving my heart bleeding in my hands

I thought I knew you well
I thought you'd catch me if fell
But when I fell you never came, no no no
that's why I knew this was a game

I thought because I knew that I won now
But honey that's easier said than done
Cause I lose my breath when you're kissing on my neck
Boy you got me in check but I haven't lost yet

Trouble...trouble...trouble...trouble... (troublemaker, troublemaker don't you bring it round don't you bring it round here no no ohh)...trouble... trouble

____________________________________________________________

WHEN IT ALL COMES DOWN

I knew
she knew
We both knew that someday all of this would end

I tried to help
but all I seem to do is hurt
not only her but myself

And someday
I'll be on the road again
And someday
I'll meet you at the top my friend
Don't cry, don't cry
although I know it's hard to comprehend, oh
Don't cry, don't cry

I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
When it all comes down, oh
don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mind
When it all comes down
and take a big deep breath

It feels so empty
without my hand intwined with yours
I don't know where to go
Cause I'm all alone
Ain't got nobody by my side
[not sure of this line]

And someday
I'll be on the road again
And someday
I'll meet you at the top my friend
Don't cry, don't cry
Although I know it's hard to comprehend
Don't cry, don't cry

I'll hold your hand if you hold mine
When it all comes down, oh
Don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine
Yeah when it all comes down
And take a big deep breath

Na na na na na na (when it all comes down I'll be there, there is nothing for you to fear)
Na na na na na na (when it all comes down you'll know you'll never have to stand alone)

I know you're feeling afraid girl
I know you're feeling alone
But when you feel you can't make it on your own, yeah yeah

I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine
When it all comes down don't close your eyes
I'll hold your hand if you hold mine yeah when it all comes down and take big deep breath

Whoa oh yeah oh oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ohhh oooh ooh

____________________________________________________________
JANUARY

(Spoken intro)

You say although your love for me is strong
that a lover under 17 is wrong
Another night goes by
and I wake enveloped in your arms
You wanna *I dont know what this is, but I know her lyrics were wrong*
Because my helplessness turns you on
(yeah, yeah turns you on)

If you leave now baby don't come back
If you leave baby don't come back
If you leave now baby don't come back
If you're leaving baby don't come back

January's just around the corner
I know that you'll be back by then
And I'm counting down the days on my calendar
Til loving me won't be a sin

I thought that after we've seen and done
that your battle with morality was won
You've already crossed the line
But it felt this * to *
I haven't got the time, no
To be let another man be shut out

If you leave now baby don't come back
If you leave baby don't come back
If you leave now baby don't come back
If you're leaving baby don't come back

January's just around the corner
I know that you'll be back by then
And I'm counting down the days on my calendar
Til loving me won't be a sin

I don't want you to leave but I need you to know
That I can only take so much of all your *
So stick around and they'll be no more reason
for *
Please could you baby? We'll be legal when the season turns, cause

January's just around the corner
I know that you'll be back by then
And I'm counting down the days on my calendar
Til loving me won't be a sin [3x]

____________________________________________________________

Somebody

I Sit alone, a dark theater
Watching the people go by
Hand in hand, everybody but me
I stay behind, watchin the credits roll by
Roll, roll, roll right by me

I know, I wont cry
Cause there is Somebody, Somebody
Somebody waitin for me
Out in the rain
Wont cry, Not tonight
Cause there is somebody waitin for me

I take a walk, the streets are busy tonight
And I am searching for you
Waiting to brush your shoulder
But I'm alone, I watch the faces roll by
Roll, roll, roll right by me

I know, I wont cry
Cause there is Somebody, Somebody
Somebody waitin for me
Out in the rain
Wont cry, Not tonight
Cause there is somebody waitin for me

How many words will go unspoken? Oh
Til I hear knockin upon my door
** of the nights I spent heartbroken
But tonight I know, ooh, I wont cry no more
Ohh

I lie awake, I left the porchlight on
I hope it helps you to find your way
Outside, I hear the thunder roll by
Roll, roll, roll right by me

I know, I wont cry
Cause there is Somebody, Somebody
Somebody waitin for me
Out in the rain
Not gonna cry tonight, ohh
Cause there is somebody waitin for me
Not gonna cry tonight
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh yeahh ohh
Not gonna cry
Not tonight, cause there is somebody waiting for me

I stay behind, watchin the credits roll by
Roll, roll, roll right by me.

When I was hanging out with my friend in Seattle she was telling me about this great song, and she played it for me, it was by Bonnie. I said, where is she from, she said she didn't know and then low and behold she was from Seattle, I said duh, you could have probably caught a show here. Anyhow...

I forgot about it until today when an old family friend was trying to tell me about this Bonnie person who her daughter was best friends with and they used to sing together in talent shows or something and now has a record deal and song on the radio. I said Bonnie McKee?

So yeah, she grew up here. Cool, huh?

Btw, I did like her sound when I heard it in Seattle. I will check out more tomorrow when I have a better connection.

Title: Bonnie McKee - Trouble
Post by: Julie on February 04, 2005, 03:57:20 pm
I am in love with Bonnie McKee now! Her album, Trouble is beautiful! Everyone should pick it up.

If you can imagine it...she is a mixture of:

Tori Amos + Christina Aguilera + Fiona Apple + Vanessa Carlton + P!nk

That's a damn good batch in my opinion.

She is so unique though, but she has similarities to the artists I listed. She is encredible. Her voice is gorgeous and her writing is phenomenal. The music is so awesome as well.

Merged with existing topic, and Jessica is right We do love Bonnie, well I do anyway-let
