Just Stand Up....

okay, i'm a sucker when it comes to songs sung by various artistes haha. i'm not really sure why..could probably be because of the group synergy and the voice projections from each and everyone of them in their own unique and signature styles :). anyhow, i kinda like this song...not because of its catchy tune (interesting yes, but not the least catchy), but because of the motive behind the song...to stand up against cancer.

cancer is a disease not to be joked with..it can be deadly and anyone can get it without ever knowing... that is until it has progressed into something critical.

research has shown that cancer can be hereditary, and i am not ashamed to admit both sides of my family has a history of cancer and i wouldn't be surprised if one day (touch wood) i would be diagnosed as having one as well haha. but seriously...even before knowing what the disease really is (and even before i started smoking hehe), i've always imagined that if i were to live until old age there would be only three types of ailments which may take away my life..cancer, heart failure and kidney failure hahaha :). will talk about this someday because the entry this time is about a song for us to stand up against cancer hehe. so listen, enjoy and do take note :).




JUST STAND UP! - Artists Stand Up To Cancer - video powered by Metacafe


Beyonce: The heart is stronger than you think
It's like it can go through anything
And even when you think it can't it finds a way to still push on, though

Carrie: Sometimes you want to run away
Ain't got the patience for the pain
And if you don't believe it look into
Your heart the beat goes on

Rihanna: I'm tellin' you that
Things get better
Through whatever
If you fall, dust it off, don't let up

Sheryl: Don't you know you can go be your own miracle

Beyonce: You need to know

CHORUS
Sheryl: If the mind keeps thinking you've had enough
But the heart keeps telling you don't give up

Sheryl/Beyonce: Who are we to be
Questioning, wondering what is what
Don't give up
THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!

Fergie: It's like we all have better days
Problems getting all up in your face

Leona: Just because you go through it

Fergie: Don't mean it got to take control, no

Light up the dark, if you follow your heart

Mary: And it will get better

Mariah: Through whatever

CHORUS

You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
You got in now, find it within now
You got in you, find it within
Find it within you, find it within
Everyone: THROUGH IT ALL, JUST STAND UP!
