Uni with Dolly Parton.

Check out
more songs by Uni & her ukelele in Myspace

I messaged this songwriter/ukelele player from San Francisco named Uni in myspace and she replied to me very kindly: "hiya pleased to meet U. I have seen your video, a friend sent it to me wondering if i knew about it, i didn't, and have to say, it's a very sexy video, i haven't written the words out to that song but when i have some free time, i will and send it to U, thanks for asking and thanks for including my song in your video, ding!"

I had used her song "Metaly Of Unfinished Songs" from the youtube audio library (I had to change the original soundtrack), in one of my fan-videos dedicated to Emile Hirsch:



This is one of my most viewed videos in youtube, I'm sure thanks to her nice song, it's very original and ironic and I thought it'd fit my visual montage well, the viewers think the same too, if you read the comments. A pretty raising number of people who have watched my video and liked this song have messaged me asking me for the lyrics, they have looked for in everywhere and me too, and we cannot find them, most of us are European and we don't understand all the English expressions that well, so I asked Uni for a transcription of "Metaly of Unfinished Songs" lyrics.

UPDATE: AND she so solicitously wrote by her hands the lyrics and sent me the whole composition:

Song "Metaly of unfinished songs" by Uni & her ukelele:
from the album 'My Favorite Letter Is U' 2006

Part one:

"Let me down easy, I don't think my heart can take it
But before I go, this one last time be a human blanket
It's the middle of the night, and I can hear the winds a blowing
Crickets signifying, their lullaby chorus's moaning
And so am I
Ohhhh...oh...oh.....oh?

Let me down easy I never said I had to be your girlfriend!
I just wanted to get close to U
I am delivering my insecurities in person
It's the middle of the night, and we are lying in your bed naked
I'm trying not to cry, while U keep your heart protected
And so do I
Ohhhh...oh...oh.....oh

Part two:

Verse:

Dear old friend of mine
U look beat up!
Your knuckles are bruised and they drag
By the waste side

Dear old friend of mine
Something's missing
I think it's your eyes?
They don't sparkle like they used to

Chorus:
Let's just sit down
I'll buy the first round
It will never be this way again
I'll never feel this way again

It just takes time
Buck up, you'll be fine
And she said
"Oh Love...it isn't meant for me"

Verse

Dear old friend of mine
What-else is new?
How many members you've got in your Rock N Roll Band?

That's great! That's good for U!
I've been there before
People I keep drifting through
But it's been along time since I've really kissed someone

Chorus:
Let's just sit down
I'll buy the first round
It will never be this way again
I'll never feel this way again

It just takes time
Buck up, you'll be fine
And I said
"Oh Love...it isn't meant for me"

Part Three

Verse

Sitting in your tower content
You're the Woolly Bully Pirate King
I wait for U
Oh I wait for U

Through a small window U see blue skies
Those who are Dapper Dan
While U get high
I wait for U
Oh I wait for U

Chorus:

Your cruel and callous sense of humor
Adds a layer to your armor
That's what U want
U hold on to what you've got

And stewing on the fact your princess is gone
And burring your love won't bring your treasure home
Ahoy she's coming back
Your hearts still under attack

Hahahahahaaa

Verse

I bow your majesty, I bite my tongue
Do a jester's dance, sing wicked wenches songs
I wait for U
Oh I wait for U

I touch your hand, share my dubloons and food
But it don't stop, your shitty mood
I wait for U
Oh I wait for U

Chorus:

Your cruel and callous sense of humor
Adds a layer to your armor
That's what U want
U hold on to what you've got

And stewing on the fact your princess is gone
And burring your love won't bring your treasure home
Ahoy she's coming back
Your hearts still under attack

Part Four:

Sick of writing these sad songs
Sick of going to parties all alone
When U can just give in
And let your guard...down

And I know I'm not that pretty
But personality goes along way
And I do my best to be honest
Within every lie I say

And I laugh at all your stupid jokes
Until it hurts inside
And I see more in U
Then I have ever seen in mine

I'm sick of being the weird one
I just wanna be your loved one
I just wanna be...........
Happy".

Kristen Stewart isn't dazed or confused

"It's something that Stewart addresses in the September issue of the British magazine Dazed & Confused. And it's a fitting topic following the photos that surfaced of Stewart and co-star Robert Pattinson getting cozy at a Kings of Leon concert last weekend in Canada.

"The fact is, the paparazzi and most interviewers, they want your soul," she said in the magazine. "It's so scary because your persona ... and I guess I now have one, because people think of me in a certain way ... is all based entirely on quick snippets of crazed moments in your life. And that is what people then base their entire opinion of me on!"

She added that in those interviews, people can misconstrue what she says in any number of ways. "Anything you say can come and bite you in the ass," Stewart said. "It's not even like you say things you don't mean, it's just that sometimes they come out wrong."
