Leighton's Music #17: If you wanna know who Leighton is listen to her music NOW bc that's EXACTLY who she is ~Shahine





---Troubador June 13, 2011---


---Set List---

On My Side • Entitled • Blue Afternoon
Jenny • Dreamin • Runaway
Heartstrings • Not Our Time • The Stand In
LA • Change Your Heart • Never Know • Still Yours

J e n n y
Get Up, get up, don't tell me no!
I need a friend tonight
I'm hard up for loving, don't take away my pride

Chorus:
Guess I've been in love
Was it real love?
Why'd I have to run away
Guess I've been in love
Must have been in love and all you wanted me to say is...

Oh I can't begin
Take me, take me for what I am
You made me feel alright
You give me all your lovin' but then I run and hide

Bridge:
Why'd I have to run away
What you do to me, what you do to me
Why'd I throw our love away
What you do to me, what you do to me
T h e S t a n d I n
I saw an angel night before last
They come from kentucky, who'd have thought that?
She had a smile, it was so genuinely kind
Sorta make you feel like you're sipping on some fine red wine

She rendered me speechless, well? She rendered me still
She had me feeling like the fool on the hill
She said she's taken but i don't believe
That she could be meant for anybody but me

Angels come from kentucky I guess
Sweet sweet girl you made my head a mess
You got me locked out here, dancing in the rain
Drunk with the thought of your smiling face
I know you are an angel and it can not be
But what if it was you and what if it was me
And...what if 600 years ago, you were juliet and I was...

Well you? know how that story goes....

So what if its a puzzle and you're the only piece the only jig to make my saw complete
What if I go stumbling for the rest of my days because i am a cripple
And you were my cane oh no....

Angels come from kentucky I guess
Sweet sweet girl you made my head a mess
You got me locked out here, dancing in the rain
Drunk with the thought of your smiling face
I know you are an angel and it can not be
But what if it was you and what if it was me
And...what if 600 years ago, you were juliet and I was...
Well you? know how that story goes....

---Reviews---

"Her new music, however, is softer, slower, and has depth beyond what people are expecting. There’s substance to the lyrics. Her new style suits her voice and showcases her talent. She can really sing, and does it with gentle clarity and soulful emotion. She also knew how to engage the audience, always having something delightful to say. Leighton Meester’s debut with Check in the Dark was amazing. They couldn’t have hoped for a better show.

We waited until about 9:30 pm for Leighton to come on stage. As soon as she appeared, the crowd would not stop roaring. Leighton Meester is known for her role as Blair Waldorf on the TV hit series, Gossip Girl. Let me tell you this-she should be known for her music. Her songs are beyond description. To call them phenomenal would be an understatement.♪♪
First of all, the songs are nothing like the usual pop main-stream songs. They are very touching and the lyrics definitely flow from the heart. Secondly, her voice is very soothing and fits her genre very well. Last but definitely not least, Leighton is a born performer. She is VERY down to earth. Ever seen an artist blush on stage when someone yells, “I love you!”? Ya well, Leighton did-more than once. She has that look that keeps you from taking your eyes off of her. Very beautiful and what’s even more alluring is that it is a natural beauty.

Also new on this week's Hot 100 is Cobra Starship feat. "Gossip Girl" star Leighton Meester's "Good Girls Go Bad" at No. 76
-Billboard Hot 100


---

And the hits just keep on comin'!
In the wake of signing a record deal for an album to be released later this year, it seems Leighton Meester is already in high demand by other artists.

Leighton Meester is hot in more ways than one. She’s of course B on Gossip Girl.
But, now she’s the H.O.T. pop star of the moment
---Leighton Meester Sings with Cobra Starship | CoverAwards

"Leighton Meester's tremendous presence and spirited approach to her musical artistry is a perfect
fit with her new Universal Republic home as we introduce current
and new fans to this unique facet of her immense talent,"
added Monte Lipman, President and CEO of Universal Republic Records.

---

"CAN YOU BELIEVE I GET TO DO A SONG WITH BLAIR WALDORF?! It's no secret that I am a HUGE Gossip Girl fan.
(On tour, our fans bring me copies of the episodes I am missing so I can stay caught up),"
Saporta wrote. "A couple months ago, I heard a rumor that Leighton was working on a record,
and I went to sleep that night dreaming of what it would be like to do a song with her.
Next morning (afternoon, actually) I wake up to find out my dreams are coming true! Some people made phone calls to some other people, then, shazam!
I'm on a plane to LA to record with my boo.
I knew I had the perfect song for her too: 'I Make Good Girls Go Bad.' "
- Gabe Saporta

Well, that shouldn't be too hard for everybody's favorite Gossip Girl gal. Nevertheless, Leighton Meester is singing about the
search for amore in her new tune "Somebody to Love," which debuted Tuesday morning on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM show.
"I really wanted to make something completely different than anything that's on the radio right now," Leighton told Ryan. "I feel like it's really dancey and fun, but still laid-back, relaxed and moody and sexy."
Also featuring Robin Thicke, the track is the first single off Leighton's upcoming album, which she hopes will be out by the end of the year. So take a listen here and give us your thoughts.
Of course, if "Somebody to Love" has you begging for more Meester music, there's always her Cobra Starship collaboration to keep you in the groove.

TFTNT! Great title!

Aw, sad it's private. I was hoping since it was in NYC that some of her colleagues from GG could go.

Well the GG cast can still go. It's probably by invitation only so maybe she will invite them.

Could be. Or did I read somewhere that she's only doing a few songs at that show? Maybe it's more of a CITD thing? IDK. I'm all confused by this show.

That does suck. But, oh well. There's always next time.

Oh! Etienne told me there next show probably wouldn't be for 3-4 more months by the end of the year
