Maan Armada's Top 5 Mumomoment Hits

It is still raining all over the metro but nothing, AND I MEAN NOTHING, can stop us from MUMOMOMENTing.

This chillaxing Sunday we are featuring Maryanne Armada's Top 5 Mumomoment Hits.

Maan's got a CHICK list -- a cool list of songs for all 'em ladies. Thank you for contributing, Maan!

MUMOMOMENT # 5 - SWAY by BIC RUNGA

Girl's ultimate favorite videoke song. Easy tempo, nice lyrics, cool tune. If forced to sing, girls will definitely choose this...


FAVE LINE: I fall into an ocean of you | Pull me out in time | Don't let me drown

WIKI TRIVIA: 'You say it Bec, rather than Bic,' explains New Zealand singer-songwriter Bic Runga. 'It's Chinese, it's a strange vowel sound which doesn't seem to translate in Australia. It means the colour of jade, which might mean green.'"The "strange vowel" is a checked tone. For the meaning of "colour of jade", Bic is "碧" in Chinese characters.

MUMOMOMENT # 4 - WISH YOU WERE HERE by AVRIL LAVIGNE

What I love about her is that she sticks to her genre. Even if she's too old for baby pop rock. Even if she's already divorced. And I still love the fact that she still doesn't care about smeared make up.

FAVE LINE: All those crazy things you said | You left them running through my head | You're always there, you're everywhere | But right now I wish you were here

WIKI TRIVIA: Lavigne made a conscious effort to keep her music, and not her image, at the forefront of her career. "I'm just saying, I don't want to sell sex. I feel that's sort of lame and low. I've got so much more to say."

MUMOMOMENT # 3 - SAVE ROOM by JOHN LEGEND

The very sexy John Legend at number 3. Can't blame Maan. Anything John Legend IS hot. Really hot. Did I say John IS HOT? :)

FAVE LINE: This just might hurt a little | Love hurts sometimes when you do it right | Don't be afraid of a little bit of pain | Pleasure is on the other side

JOHN TRIVIA: "I always loved the feeling when people responded to my singing and playing," John admitted. "I was ambitious and just loved being onstage."


MUMOMOMENT # 2 - SHIMMER by FUEL

This song is a wonderful surprise. I didn't know that Maan actually listens to Fuel. Maan, you so sexy! You already! ♥

FAVE LINE: She says that love is for fools that fall behind | And I'm somewhere in between | I never really know | A killer from a savior | 'Til I break at the bend

FUEL TRIVIA: Fuel is a post grunge band which became popular for their single Hemorrhage released in 2000. The band was formed in 1989. Thanks to the elite TN for nourishing these kids.

MUMOMOMENT # 1 - BUILT TO LAST by MELEE

This sounds so '90s, thanks to the lyrics. I love the way the band arranged it. I ice them. Already! ♥ Youtube's RedRockerFan1982 says: "This is gonna be my wedding song in October For Sure!!!!" Well, let's quote Facebook: LIKE!

FAVE LINE: 'Cause this is real, and this is good | It warms the inside just like it should | But most of all most of all, it's built to last

MELEE TRIVIA: Mêlée is an indie/pop punk band from Orange County in CA. Contradicting to the band's feel-good sound, melee means a noisy riotous fight or brawl in French. Like them literally on Facebook: Click me to Melee-fy.
