  • Cake – Short Skirt, Long Jacket

    Why would Cake want a girl with a short skirt and a loooooooong jacket? 

    I wonder. 

    Let me know if you know why.

  • Bright Side of Life

    Some things in life are bad,
    They can really make you mad
    Other things just make you swear and curse
    When you’re chewing on life’s gristle
    Don’t grumble, give a whistle
    And this’ll help things turn out for the best
    And…

    …always look on the bright side of life

    Really really love this track (Python Monty – Always Look on the Bright Side of Life)! I met many stressful friends, relatives, or colleagues. Everyday is a bad day. Not only Monday, she/he hates all days of the week.

    I happened to listen to this song (learn more about this song), and gosh,… i believe you all will feel better after listen to it. Yeah, maybe not instantly feels good (or smile), but at least, better! Trust me!

    You’ll see it’s all a show,
    Keep ’em laughing as you go.
    Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

    Try the whistling part, yes you can do it. Nod your head once or twice. Always look on the bright side of life! Always!

    Life’s one, live it!

    Don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been
    But I know where I want to go

  • Follow Your Dream

    I read about Yip Harburg, he’s the lyricist of the very very famous Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Hmm, i kinda like this one:

    Look, look, look to the rainbow
    Follow it over the hill and stream
    Look, look, look to the rainbow
    Follow the fellow who follows a dream.

    Of course, to me, lyric of Somewhere Over The Rainbow is extremely powerful. Love it:

    Somewhere over the rainbow,
    Way up high
    There’s a land that I heard of
    Once in a lullaby.
    Somewhere over the rainbow
    Skies are blue
    And the dreams that you dare to dream
    Really do come true.

    I guess y’all agree with me, dont you?

  • Naim

    I happened to catch The Ellen DeGeneres, earlier this morning, when i woke up. She introduced Yael Naim (she’s popular as her song was picked as the soundtrack of MacAir ad). Never heard of her, her music, or the ad; until today.

    AMAZING! Love the voice, love the music, the melody. Gosh, hear it now! If you dont like the “…la la la la…” part, well there must be something wrong with your mood today! 🙂

    Also, pay special attention to the piano. I am lucky enough to watch her perform in The Ellen DeGeneres. Go Naim! (Note: I haven’t downloaded any mp3 of Yael Naim. Still in the ‘reduce piracy’ campaign month).

    I embed the video here.

    I’m a new soul
    I came to this strange world
    Hoping I could learn a bit bout how to give and take.
    But since I came here,
    Felt the joy and the fear
    Finding myself making every possible mistake
    la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…


  • Pavement

    Weeks since the last time i logged in. Anyway, cable tv goes out, probably because i havent paid this month’s bill 😀 hehe, kinda forget and bit of hope that Astro forget my due date, they are not. Happened to catch Adele earlier this morning, and tell you now that i love her voice. Check her out.

    Should I give up
    Or should I just keep chasing pavements
    Even if it leads nowhere,
    Or would it be a waste
    Even if I knew my place should I leave it there.
    Should I give up
    Or should I just keep chasing pavements
    Even if it leads nowhere
    Don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been
    But I know where I want to go
