Watch Me Shine

8 February 2010 7 Comments

You have seen “Legally Blonde”, haven’t you? Reese Witherspoon, trying to prove that she is better than everyone, fighting the cliches and succeeding.

The movie is certainly one of my feel-good-factors whenever things seem to be impossible to accomplish.

Why am I talking about the movie? Because today it is Monday which means another one of Monday Music Inspiration. And the song that is my inspiration is “Watch Me Shine” from the official soundtrack to the movie.

“Watch Me Shine” performed by Joanna Pacitti

Song’s Lyrics

Ooh..

I’m not
You average type of girl
I’m gonna show the world
The strength in me
That sometimes they can’t see
I’m about to switch my style
And soon things may get wild
But I will prove
I can conquer anything

So from my head to toe
I’m taking full control
I’ll make it on my own
This time
(Better watch me shine)

CHORUS:
Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won’t stop
Till I’m on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what’s mine
Better check that
I’m about to upset
And I’m hot now
So you better step back
I’m taking over
So watch me shine

So
Get ready
Here I come
Until the job is done
No time to waste
There’s nothing stopping me
Oh
But you don’t hear me though
So now it’s time to show
I’ll prove I’m gonna be
The best I can be

So from my head to toe
My mind body and soul
I’m taking full control
This time

CHORUS:
Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won’t stop
Till I’m on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what’s mine
Better check that
I’m about to upset
And I’m hot now
So you better step back
I’m taking over
So watch me shine

BRIDGE:
Bet you don’t think
I can take it
But my mind and body
Are strong
Bet you don’t think
I can make it
It won’t take long
Bet you don’t think
I can take it
But my mind and body
Are strong
Bet you don’t think
I can make it
It won’t take long

Now watch me shine…

CHORUS:
Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won’t stop
Till I’m on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what’s mine
Better check that
I’m about to upset
And I’m hot now
So you better step back
I’m taking over
So watch me shine

Now watch me shine…

CHORUS:
Better watch out
Going for the knockout
And I won’t stop
Till I’m on top now
Not gonna give up
Until I get what’s mine
(Until I get what’s mine…)
Better check that
I’m about to upset
And I’m hot now
So you better step back
I’m taking over
So watch me shine

Watch me…
Watch me shine…
Watch me

Video

Now since there is no video for this song, I will leave you with this one,
featuring scenes and songs from the movie.


[Those who read the post in the reader, might not be able to see the video.
Drop by The Colors Magazine, you will love it]

And now remember, if someone tells you that you can’t do something and can’t be someone, tell them
“Watch me… Shine”

    Cool Lena. THis one’s not really my cup of tea, but I’ll admit it was a nice fun movie. It’s refreshing to see a female character in the movies accomplish something! The message in this song is very empowering!

    I LOVE Legally Blond and aside from the fact that it is just an all around fun movie, it does have the anything is possible message which we all need from time to time!

    Hey!!!
    I came here from a discussion board in Facebook. It’s a weird coincidence that your post mentions “Legally Blond”. My post is about the chilean tendency of trying to be “blond” (like “if you are blond, you are better”) and even a portrait of a beatified person was painted in a more “blondie” way.
    I really enjoyed your space, I hope you visit mine! And don’t panic, at the left I’ve got a translator :P Lorena Machuca W.´s last blog ..No hay que ser rubio para ser bueno: el caso de la beata Laura Vicuña My ComLuv Profile

    This is my favorite movie. I totally love it and when I feel a little bit under weather I always watch it. It’s like a happy pill for me :-)
    The song is great. I also love another song from the movie “Perfect Day” by Hoku (here is a link to the lyrics of this song Perfect Day)

    A day or so late for the Monday inspiration but life always knows the right time to tap you on the shoulder. I needed this more on Wednesday than Monday. I’ve copied the lyrics on paper and they’ll travel in my pocket tomorrow. Better watch out!
