silence works. sometimes.

Old songs with much relatable lyrics.
Somehow sometimes I hate it.
Today might be the day I "absorbed" entirely.
Absurd.

Do all the things 'you' should have done

Well we have all once let one go.
Probably that's how we learn, but trusting another.. *sigh
Guess one will come to learn from mistakes or maybe not.
Hence I am not holding on any longer.
But damn you, the lyrics.


- -

Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

It all just sounds like oooooh…
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should have gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man

My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, ohh…
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes

It all just sounds like oooooh…
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should have gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man

Although it hurts
I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know

I hope he buys you flowers
I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours
When he has the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man

with or without meant nothin' anymore

You know, I heard this song like ten thousand trillion times before...
but.. but never ever noticed her lyrics.
It is quite "power-talking". Haha.

It finally caught my attention when I was driving home earlier from a long day of work..
It was on air.. and well it hit me on the chorus; right on the sec I was thinking of something similar. Anyway the song was Demi Lovato's Skyscraper.

It was this part at first..

As the smoke clears, I awaken,
And untangle you from me,
Would it make you feel better,
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken,
But I'm standing on my feet.

then...

You can take everything I have,
You can break everything I am,
Like I'm made of glass,
Like I'm made of paper,
Go on and try to tear me down,
I will be rising from the ground,
Like a skyscraper.

Dumbstruck and I laughed out loud. 

How ironic.

How coincident things can be. 

But I am happy today.

Somehow or rather the clouds hid away and the sun is back.

Hope tomorrow will always be a better day.  

*fingerscrossed*

喜歡不是愛

Somehow stumbled onto the instrumental guitar version of this song on some guy's blog.
Caught my attention hence I googled it.
Never a big fan of mandarin pop songs.. never knew who sang which..
Hmm.. just very selected few but this song kind of bugged-on me.
Well in a good way, sorta. Lyrics are pretty much related in a few phrases..
Anyway I like it and I think she's adorable.




我閉上眼睛　貼著你心跳呼吸
而此刻地球　只剩我們而已
你微笑的唇型　總勾著我的心
每一秒初吻　我每一秒都想要吻你

就這樣　愛你愛你愛你　隨時都要一起
我喜歡　愛你外套味道　還有你的懷裡
把我們　衣服鈕扣互扣　那就不用分離
美好愛情　我就愛這樣貼近　因為你

有時沒生氣　故意鬧脾氣
你的緊張在意　讓我覺得安心
從你某個角度　我總看見自己
到底你懂我　或其實我本來就像你

想變成你的氧氣　溜進你身體裡
好好看看在你心裡
你有多麼寶貝　我愛你

就這樣　愛你愛你愛你　隨時都要一起
我喜歡　愛你外套味道　還有你的懷裡
把我們　衣服鈕扣互扣　那就不用分離
美好愛情　我就愛這樣貼近　因為你
我們愛情　會一直沒有距離　最美麗

Her official MV *here*

Wishes.

Eight hours of sitting in front of my laptop today, the video shared below is the last song on my 3-songs-only playlist. Kept repeating alongside with Tamia's Officially Missing You and Enrique's Somebody's Me.
Sappy songs to 'accommodate' the bottomless pit of my negativity today.

Piece of Love.

I purchased a CD last night. Piece of Love. 

Description stated by today's most outstanding female audiophile voices.

Woke up early to a quiet house this morning.

Put my headphones on and start to inch away from the blinking emails, over-piling papers and unnecessary thoughts.

If only I can gaze out the window the entire day, listening to these inspiring love songs and wander off into my own space. Weather is perfect today.

Sky is still grey after the morning rain.. a slight breeze, after-rain smell. 

Hmm. it's comforting.

It's a musical rainbow to set you in the mood.

it's blue and the blues.

That's my favourite color lately.
Electric Blue.
And Monday never felt sooooooooo blue for the longest time.
I'm so dreading my feet to work. Arghhhhh~

Yeah BB King.. blue blue king. Lol.
Somehow after this song. I felt even... blue-r.



Your love is like a cigarette.. How blue can you get?

habits are hard little buggers to kill

Bad habits are hard to die.
But who to define they are bad.
Good. Bad. Habits are habits.
Especially when habits involved a person.
What if one day this habit just die off without my consent?
What will happen then?
Habits that are hard to kill and the fear of losing someone..
simply sums up to... err..
I'm still figuring out the answer or maybe I refused to. Just let it be.
If there's no "failure", that might possibly lead to a good "routine".



But whatever happens, tomorrow will always be a better day.

I can never remember much Chinese song titles or celebrities except maybe the really famous ones. I was searching for some instrumental jazzy songs on YouTube yesterday and somehow stumbled onto these songs.
Piano Covers for  鄧福如 - 如果有如果 and 田馥甄 - 還是要幸福.
Easy on ears. Nice. The 感受 is undeniable.

playing side by side

I think this is pure genius.
Just playing side by side and that's a great new song.

Songs:

- New York, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down.
- Elevator to the Gallows.

Cool eh?
Thanks to Evan.

sensed an existence

你存在，我深深的脑海里，我的梦里，我的心里，我的歌声里.

oh btw. me likey this.

(if only i can insert an emoticon with heartshaped eyes. i'll probably put 5. haha)

Goodnight.

a failed fairytale

I never like Alanis Morissette or Karen Mok. Karen Mok is like the asian Alanis.

Till today, a close friend told me Alanis's "Ironic" song best define my current situation.

After listening to it, comprehending the lyrics.. Trying not to let it get me. I laughed then sulked.
Yeah, she's right. Unfortunately to my case.
Her exact words would be, "This doesn't happen all the time ok, re-enacting a scene from a song. Lol"

Damn she's right and she thought it was bizarre and funny. Ugh. Fxxx me.

Google can be the best, most useful tool ever invented to dig any dirty stuff or throwing answers to any impossible question regardless of right or wrong.
It's EVIL, I must say.. to my case.
Found out some little fishy details about this particular particular.
I am sorta kinda burnt. 

I know, KNEW I shouldn't play with fire but I lead the fire to start.. a little. 

Good thing was.. the fire was killing small.. mere sparkle.. still able to kill cool it.

A traffic jam when you're already late

A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break

It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife

It's meeting the man of my dreams

And then meeting his beautiful wife

And isn't it ironic...don't you think

A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

Yes. Go figure, all you clever bastards.
Screw me.

I'm not happy.
But I will not think this tomorrow.
This will end today.


I shall rest my case.


I mean it. Period.

下一个天亮

Two songs to keep me acompany while I'm clearing the messy messy crazy lines in that bloody complicated drawing. UghhH!!!
They're supposed to soothe me out of my "uncomfort zone" but kinda not helping.. haha..
but I still like to listen to them.. sing along 我爱他 轰轰烈烈最疯狂.. Haha.

I think I should stop humming on these songs and start hammering on 30Secs to Mars Bury Me.
Hey Bonjovi will do the trick!! =P

he's my heartache

Work is kinda slowing down lately.

Not sure if that's a good sign or not but well, at least I have my ME time.

Was watching this Korean Drama, A Gentleman's Dignity *click*..

Not bad. Who will not want to watch a drama with 4 eligible hot Korean guys with totally different personalities? A male version of Sex and the City.

Fell in love with the song, Heartache which I have embeded below. 

Such a sexy voice for this love ballad. ahhh~ 

*drools*

Nice right?
me *hearts* it.

it's maroon five-ish

They are coming this September. Can't wait.
Never used to be a big fan of Maroon 5 but was until...
I watched Adam Levine on The Voice and was blown away.. far far away. =P
Anyway I'm excited but not as crazy as Tess. She drooled since watching them since no idea when. Hah.

I think this vid is cute.
Watch it.
"I'm on a payphone trying to call home~~~~"

Il Volo fantastico

Il Volo was awesome.

Their live version was as amazing as the CD itself.

Goosebumps-generators!

Enough said.

Guess they almost crashed Bentley Auditorium's sound system with their fantastico vocals.

Haha. =P

My my baby blue

Wow. A week just breeze by.. seems like seconds i last pen here last Friday.
Haha Life has been ridiculiously hectic lately.
Running from one site to another was hellish and very tiring.

Anyway that's work.

I have a latest "at-the-moment" obsession. Heehee.

Steve Tyler. Don't you think he's adorable despite his age..

He's 63 but still sound AMAZING!!

Funny watching him on American Idol, all those hilarious moments and expressions.

His drugs past put aside (which i don't care), he's really a damn good vocalist.

His nickname of "Demon of Singing" hella impressive.

Love his colorful outfits with his trademark scarves hanging from his microphone stand.

Chill ran down my spine listening to his ggreaatt songs.. Ja-ja-jadedddd..~~

Singing along with his songs, very stress-releasing in a different way.. Hehe

Would love to go to one of his concerts, but nahhh he probably wont be allowed in Malaysia.

Those silly too-rock-bad-influence crap rules.

His live performance!! AMAZING!~

I wonder if I can find his old Aerosmith cd at the stores now.. hmm

Your thinking's so complicated...

I've had it all up to here,

But it's so overrated..

Love and hated,

Wouldn't trade it..

Love me jaded...

who can resist John Corbett?

I have a huge crush on John Corbett ever since I watched him on Sex and the City.

Yes still having a bigass crush even though the series was like 10 years ago?

I still and will always find him really hot and sexy despite his older age now.

This vid below is one of Trisha's BIG song.
Meaningful lyrics with very nice vid to go alongwith.

Of course "plus points" for me is that John's starring in it. =)

We don't have to do this..

We don't have to act like friends,

As much as I would love to,

I really just don't think I can...

Me, the one who really knows you

Me, the one whose heart you've broken..

Me, the one who was still hoping..

You might be missing.... me.

I really like the lyrics. *click* Find it very down-to-earth.

Practically everyone would go through this kind of phase in life.

Can so feel it.
