Our Songs

Ok, I know you're gonna be mad at me knowing that I prefer writing in this blog to revising my thesis. Well honey, I need a break :D. Now, we've been together for years. We have two gorgeous children and they are very gorgeous, indeed. The spirit of our lives.
To remember the old days, I want to list our 10 memorable songs. The songs that accompany our stories. In other words, These are our soundtracks. FYI, you introduced me most of the songs in the list. You brought me a new life. New chapter in my life. Hence, let's start to countdown the list, shall we?

10. Jealousy - Queen

Aha, our very first song is the romantic and melancholic song by our favorite band, Queen. In today's word, lagu galau. Haha...  I fell in love once I heard the song. So beautiful. Actually, you gave me this song accidentally. If I'm not mistaken, at that time, I asked for a song, but then you copied me several songs including this one. This was one of my favorites, moreover the situation was so supportive. I was the one who sought for a chance, at that time. The song matched the circumstance. Oh how wrong can you be, to fall in love was my very first mistake?
*was it my mistake to fall in love with you?

09. She - Elvis Castillo

Next is another beautiful song sung by Elvis Castillo and it is also the OST of Notting Hill. Okay, I knew the song before I met you, but it was you who searched and downloaded it for me. You knew so much about songs downloading at the moment. Personally, I like the word She. It represents someone who is destined to be mine. She may be the reason I survive. The why and wherefore I am alive ... Feel like Hugh Grant when singing the song with you.

08. Where are You Now - Jimmy Harnen

Where are you now? is someone there tonight holding what was mine?
haha... what a possessive lyric.

07. Nuansa Bening - Gang Pegangsaan

This is beautiful. Really. In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written by Indonesian musician. O tiada yang hebat ketika kau lewat di hadapanku, biasa saja... 

06. I love you - Sofie

One of the OSTs of BrokeBack Mountain. Actually, this is your song and I believe that there are only few people who know this song. But lately I also like the song. This song is "different". Then, I love you becomes my magic clause ever since- You know what I mean.


05. We could be in love - Lea Salonga & Brad Kane

I used to say we could be in love but now I proudly say, We are in love. XOXO

04. I loved her first - Heartland

When I listened to this song, I imagined that you were marrying somebody else. I listened to this song when our relationship reached its fragile condition due to our own situation. If you had married someone else at that time, I would have said to him, "I love her first!"
*actually, this is a song from a father to his daughter

03. Love hurts - Nazareth

Love will feel so much hurting when reality is against our hope. I listened to the song when we were on the bus after having lunch in Sari Ater. Love hurts, babe!

02. Love of my life - Jim Brickman

Honeymoon song... every morning, every breakfast time... this song was played and played, over and over again... At first, you had no clues whose song it was, then I told you. Now, every time this song is played in Mall, Restaurant, my memory goes directly to our Honeymoon time. Lovely.

01. Old flame can't hold a candle to you - Dolly Parton

I bet you are not so familiar with this song. This is the clue, I played it in front of your house at your birthday while flipping my "cards". This is very good song and Dolly Parton is a good singer as well.
The last card said, "To me, you are PERFECT".

Well, sweetie, those are my 10 perfect songs for us. They are the soundtrack of our love story. The story to be told to our children. We are different, but we are one, in the name of love. I Love You.
