This song was also featured in Bratz: Motion Picture Soundtrack, sang by Joanna Pacitti. It was originally written for britney, for her blackout album, but she didnt take it so they gave it to joanna, however britney was and is the only one who can use it as a single, and she still could use it for future albums if she wanted to. So here is the song featured in her latest album, Circus
Out From Under - Britney Spears
Breathe you out
Breathe you in
You keep coming back to tell me
you’re the one who could have been
and my eyes see it all so clear
It was long ago and far away but it never disappears
I try to put it in the past
Hold on to myself and don’t look back
I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under
So let me go
Just let me fly away
Let me feel the space between us growing deeper
And much darker every day
Watch me now and I’ll be someone new
My heart will be unbroken
It will open up for everyone but you
Even when I cross the line
It's like a lie I’ve told a thousand times
I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under
And part of me still believes
When you ay you’re gonna stick around
And part of me still believes
We can find a way to work it out
But I know that we tried everything we could try
So let's just say goodbye
Forever
I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna dream about
All the things that never were
Maybe I can live without
When I’m out from under
I don’t wanna feel the pain
What good would it do me now
I’ll get it all figured out
When I’m out from under
When I'm out from under

Just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me,
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is a 1922 short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It has been adapted for a 2008 film of the same name directed by David Fincher.
The story begins in 1860, just before the beginning of the American Civil War, with the birth of the protagonist, Benjamin Button. Benjamin Button is born with the physical appearance of a seventy-year-old man, and when his father first visits him mere hours after his birth he is already able to speak. To avoid embarrassment, Benjamin's father forces him to shave his beard and dye his hair in order to look younger.
As the story progresses it soon becomes apparent to the Button family that Benjamin is aging backwards. At the age of eighteen he attempts to enroll at Yale University. However, having run out of hair-dye on the day of his interview, the officials at Yale send him away believing that he is a fifty-year-old lunatic.
Several years later, while attending a party with his father (who now looks to be the same age as Benjamin), Benjamin meets the young Hildegarde Moncrief, the daughter of a respected Civil War general. Hildegarde tells Benjamin that she would rather be with an older man because they treat women better. He dances with her, and they quickly fall in love and marry. Benjamin soon takes over his father's hardware business, and he proves to be highly adept at the job--while growing fabulously rich.
As Benjamin "grows younger", he begins to feel healthier and happier, as Fitzgerald says, "the blood flowed with new vigour through his veins". However, his wife ceases to attract him as she ages, and he soon decides to fight in the Spanish-American War. He serves with great distinction and receives a medal for a wound he received at the Battle of San Juan Hill. When he returns home his relationship with his wife deteriorates further, and he becomes more detached from her, and he often leaves the house and goes to lavish parties and dances, while his wife is more settled in her ways.
In 1910 Benjamin turns over control of his company to his son, Roscoe, and enrolls at Harvard, with the appearance of a 20-year-old. His first year at Harvard is a great success, and he dominates on the football field. However, by the time Benjamin reaches his senior year he is a frail sixteen-year-old too weak to play football and barely able to cope with the academic load.
After he graduates from Harvard, he learns his wife has moved to Italy, and Benjamin goes to live with his son who treats him somewhat disdainfully, telling Benjamin to call him "Uncle" when other people are around. One day Benjamin receives a commission in the mail to serve as a brigadier-general in the United States Army. When he goes to report he is only just able to persuade a clerk to give him a uniform, for he looks to be only sixteen years of age. He is soon forced to leave.
Benjamin returns home, and as the years progress he goes from being a moody teenager to being a young boy and is reluctantly cared for by Roscoe. Eventually, he looks to be the same age as his own grandson, and even attends kindergarten with him. As his body grows younger, Button slowly begins to lose his memory of his earlier life. The toys and games that he spurned as a newborn begin to interest him. As he reaches the end of his life he becomes a baby, and his nanny takes him for walks and teaches him to say words. His memory deteriorates to the point where he can't remember anything except the immediate present, and eventually, all goes dark.

Joeniar Arief - Rapuh
Today my sister sent me a song called "Rapuh" by Joeniar Arief.
I have to admit this is a good sad song.
For those who are Leona Lewis fans, you will listen some parts of this song resemble "Bleeding Love". Not just that, if you noticed long enough, the sample drum machine is similar with those used by Timbaland in their song "Apologize".
Rapuh - JOENIAR ARIEF
Kau tak tahu betapa rapuhnya aku
You don't know how fragile i am
Bagai lapisan tipis air yang beku
Like a frozen glaze
Sentuhan lembut kan hancurkan aku
A gentle touch will crush me
Walaupun cinta tak sempurna menghampiriku seketika
Although a flaw love approach me instantaneous
Kuingin kau tahu betapa rapuhnya aku
I want you to know how fragile i am
Kau tak tahu betapa rapuhnya aku
You don't know how fragile i am
Masih terasa luka di masa lalu
I can still feel the hurt from my past
Ku pernah mencintai sepenuh hati
I once loved someone with all my heart before
(namun cinta itu lari)
(but it is gone now)
Dan aku terluka
And I was hurt...
Luka membekas
Hurt that left a trace...
Bekas membuat
A Trace that makes me...
Buat slamanya
Makes me forever...
Selamanya ku
Forever I...
Ku kan selalu
I will always be...
Ku kan selalu rapuh
I will always be fragile.
Kau ingin tunjukan kepada dunia
You want to show to the world
Tak hanya ada karena masa lalu
We are not only living from the past
Tapi masih ada harapan bagi yang baru
But there is still a new and fresh hope
Kau tawarkanku sejuta harapan
You offer me a million hopes
Namun kenangan itu tak pernah hilang
But this memory will remain
Kuingin kau tahu betapa rapuhnya aku
I want you to know how fragile i am
Kau datang bagai hujan
You come to my life like a rain
Basahi tanah hati
Pouring my heart land
Tapi kau lihat sendiri
But you see it yourself
Luka ini.....
This wound...
