Symphony yang Indah

I'd like to post another beautiful song. It's called Simfoni yang Indah-A Beautiful Symphony. The song was composed by Robby Lea and was firstly sung by Bob Tutupoly, a famous singer who started singing in the 1960s. Nevertheless, the version I am familiar with is Elfonda Mekel's version. Once, his stage name released the song in 2010. The song itself is very beautiful with romantic lyrics. 

It tells about love, love in the broadest sense. It could be love from parents to their children, love in the romantic sense, and also it could be love to God, as stated in the lyrics Merasuk sukma kalbuku. Dalam hati ada satu. It is said that the is only one God to worship.

In this song, being with someone you love can uplift the spirit and can encourage you to face the challenges of life. It can also heal your ache and all the pain will disappear.

Berpadunya dua insan. Simfoni dan keindahan. Melahirkan kedamaian. Melahirkan kedamaian. Syair dan melodi. Kau bagai aroma penghapus pilu. Gelora di hati. Bak mentari kau sejukkan hatiku.

Enjoy this beautiful song, by Once!

Happier

This morning, as I drove my car to the office, the radio played this beautiful song by Ed Sheeran. To me, he is a genius. Most of his songs are simple, but deep in meaning, and not to mention the process how he composed those songs, so simple but catchy. Back to the Happier, let's check out the lyric.

Walking down 29th and Park
I saw you in another's arms
Only a month we've been apart
You look happier

Saw you walk inside a bar
He said something to make you laugh
I saw that both your smiles were twice wide as ours
Yeah, you look happier, you do

Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody love you like I do
Promise that I will not take it personal, baby
If you're moving on with someone new

'Cause baby you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
And until then I'll smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you

Sat on the corner of the room
Everything's reminding me of you
Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you're happier
Aren't you?

Ain't no no body hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't no body need you like I do
I know that there's others that deserve you
But my darling, I'm still in love with you

But I guess you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'd feel it too
I could try to smile to hide the truth
I know I was happier with you

Baby, you look happier, you do
I knew one day you'd fall for someone new
But if breaks your heart like lovers do
Just know that I'll be waiting here for you

songwriters: Ed Sheeran/Benjamin Levin/Ryan Tedder

So, are you happier now?

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.

Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody

This is really nice song...
The song was written by the lead vocal the fantastic Freddy Mercury for Queen's 1975 album, A Night at Opera. This song became the most popular song around 70s and 80's and to be considered as Queen's Magnum Opus. The Most Renowned Achievement.

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy (poor boy), I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me, to me

Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

It's too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody - I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooo - (anyway the wind blows)
I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, scaramouche, will you do the fandango?
Thunderbolts and lightning - very very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo,
Galileo, Galileo,
Galileo Figaro - magnifico

I'm just a poor boy nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has the devil put aside for me
for me
for me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh baby - can't do this to me baby
Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters - nothing really matters to me

Anyway the wind blows...

Thank You

This is Dido's first single. I love Dido. she's pretty and she has an angel voice. This song became popular at the first released since Eminem took its chorus as a part in his smash hit's Stan. Ever since, Dido has become well-known worldwide.
"to my dear, thank you for cheering up my days. it's truly wonderful seeing and being with you on each and every single day of my life"

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why
I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey,
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad,
it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay,
my head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today,
I'm late for work again
And even if I'm there, they'll all imply
that I might not last the day
And then you call me and it's not so bad,
it's not so bad and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last
and I'm soaking through and through
Then you hand me a towel
and all I see is you
And even if my house falls down,
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life

Sampai Nanti

Ini lagunya Kahitna. Sebenarnya lagu ini biasa aja. standarnya kahitnalah. lagu cinta. tapi saya sangat suka sama liriknya. penuh cinta (tentu saja). juga menggambarkan pengharapan tuk selalu bersama selamanya.
"semoga kita juga bisa bersama sampai nanti ya, yang."


Indah rambutmu mengurai kata cinta
Tiada indah dunia tanpa kehadiranmu
Deru hatiku menembus batas rindu
Jelas artinya surga teduh aku dekatmu

Sampai nanti tak berbatas inginku
Harap ini takdirku tuk selalu denganmu
Sampai Nanti jiwa ini kutunggu
Bukan hanya sumpahku tuk selalu denganmu
oh dewiku

Keluguanmu hapuskan beban dunia
Ini arti suciku tegas inginkan kamu

Sampai nanti tak berbatas inginku
Harap ini takdirku tuk selalu denganmu
Sampai Nanti jiwa ini kutunggu
Bukan hanya sumpahku tuk selalu denganmu
oh dewiku

Dekatkan aku selalu
tuk gapai indah hasratmu

oo..e ya.. oo..e ya...

Sampai nanti tak berbatas inginku
Harap ini takdirku tuk selalu denganmu
Sampai Nanti jiwa ini kutunggu
Bukan hanya sumpahku tuk selalu denganmu
oh dewiku

na..na..na...na...

Kangen

ini aslinya sih lagunya Dewa 19 versi Ari lasso. Tapi saya lebih suka pas dinyanyiin ma Chrisye duet bareng Sophia Latjuba. Gimanaaaaa gitu. suka aja. Kenapa posting lagu ini? lagi kangen juga ma yayang... i miss you so, dear.

Ku Terima Suratmu T'lah Ku Baca Dan Aku Mengerti
Betapa Merindunya Dirimu Akan Hadirnya Diriku
Di Dalam Hari-harimu Bersama Lagi
Kau Bertanya Padaku Kapan Aku
Akan Kembali Lagi
Katamu Kau Tak Kuasa Melawan
Gejolak Di Dalam Dada
Yang Membara Menahan Rasa Pertemuan Kita Nanti
Saat Kau Ada Di Sisiku

Semua Kata Rindumu Semakin Membuatku
Tak Berdaya Menahan Rasa Ingin Jumpa ...
Percayalah Padaku Akupun Rindu Kamu
Ku Akan Pulang Melepas Semua Kerinduan
Yang Terpendam ...

Kau Tuliskan Padaku
Kata Cinta Yang Manis Dalam Suratmu
Kau Katakan Padaku
Saat Ini Ku Ingin Dalam Pelukmu
Dan Belai Lembut Kasihmu
Takkan Ku Lupa S'lamanya
Saat Bersama Dirimu

Jangan Katakan Cinta Menambah Beban Rasa
Sudah Simpan Saja Sedihmu Itu
Ku Akan Datang ...

Thank you for loving me [Bon Jovi]

It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Chorus:
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies

Chorus:
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

You pick me up when I fall down
You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me

Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Chorus:
Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

When I couldn't fly
Oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me

Umbrella

ini lagunya Rihanna feat Jay-Z. kenapa posting lagu ini ya? hmm...karena sekarang lagi musim hujan kali ya...hehehe. selain itu lagunya juga asyik kok, lumayan buat nge-dance. nah lagunya kayak gini...
(*honey, you can stand under my umbrella*)

[Jay-Z]
Ahuh Ahuh (Yea Rihanna)
Ahuh Ahuh (Good girl gone bad)
Ahuh Ahuh (Take three... Action)
Ahuh Ahuh

No clouds in my storms
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Coming down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
We fly higher than weather
And G5’s are better, You know me,
an anticipation, for precipitation. Stacked chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
Rihanna where you at?

[Rihanna]
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
May be in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because

[Chorus]
When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because

[Repeat Chorus]

You can run into my arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
Come into me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because

[Repeat Chorus]

It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come into me
Come into me
It's raining
Oh baby it's raining

Fernando

Kemaren saya ke Gramedia Merdeka. Di salah satu konter buku diskon, saya melihat majalah lirik lagu milik ABBA. Begitu saya melihatnya, tanpa sengaja halaman pertama yang terbuka adalah lirik lagu Fernando. Saya langsung saja nyanyi sendiri, karena ga tau bagaimana awalnya, saya tanyakan saja pada mba' dewi. Mba' Dewi ikutan nyanyi deh...
Lagu ini mengingatkan saya pada sebuah artikel yang membahas tentang Fernando Torres, bomber baru andalan Liverpool. Tapi sekarang lagu ini tidak hanya sekadar 'Fernondo Torres' tapi juga 'hal lainnya'. menurut saya lagunya bagus. Suka.

Can you hear the drums fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I’m not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando

Now we’re old and grey fernando
And since many years I haven’t seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the rio grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando

There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There’s no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando...

Polyethylene

by Radiohead

Go.
Disjointed we scare ourselves with all that we wanna be.
Just got paid and now you’re going, how long should you be? I
f I get scared, I just call you.
And i, miss your glow as I unsettle,
Oh I’ll always feel,
I’ll always be.Right.

One, two, three, four.

So sell your suit and tie, and come and live with me.
Leukemia, schizophrenia, polyethylene.
There is no significant risk to your health.
She used to be beautiful once as well.

Plastic bag, middle class, polyethylene.Decaffeinate,
unleaded, keep all surfaces clean.
If you don’t believe in it, sell your soul.
If you don’t get into it, no one will.
Oh...... oh........

Menikah

By Java Jive

apakah kau tak pernah tahu
betapa indahnya dirimu
biarkan rambut yang tergerai
jatuh dalam pelukanku

kucium hatimu damai
tatap matamu harapan
saat kita erat berpelukan
oh indahnya berkata

oh ... menikahlah denganku
oh ... bahagialah selamanya

musim demi musim berlalu
menuai usia kita
biar dua hati bercanda
di padang yang kita bina

kucium hatimu damai
tatap matamu harapan
saat kita erat berpelukan
oh indahnya berkata

oh ... abadilah cintaku
oh ... jayalah dunia berlalu
oh ... bahagialah kasihku
oh ... bahagialah selamanya

sampai waktu yang memanggil kita
ku kan tetap berkata

oh ...menikahlah denganku
oh ...bahagialah selamanya

love is Cinta

lagi pengen posting lirik lagu Indonesia. Ini soundtrack film Love is Cinta. Seseorang pernah berpesan kepada saya, kalau saya benar2 serius, maka jaganlah main2. jangan hanya karena cinta terus semuanya jadi terburu2, jadi buta. Ingat, Love is Cinta. begitu katanya. dia punya daya magis yang dahsyat.

Ada Cinta

Ucapkanlah kasih
Satu kata yang kunantikan
Sebab ku tak mampu membaca matamu
Mendengar bisikmu

Nyanyikanlah kasih
Senandung kata hatimu
Sebab ku tak sanggup
Mengartikan getar ini
Sebab ku meragu pada dirimu

Mengapa berat ungkapkan cinta
Padahal ia ada dalam rinai hujan
Dalam terang bulan juga dalam shedu sedang
Mengapa sulit mengaku cinta padahal ia terasa
Dalam rindu dendam hening malam cinta terasa ada

Think of me (from the Phantom of the Opera)

Think of me,
think of me fondly,
when we've said goodbye.
Remember me
once in a while -
please promise me you'll try.
When you find that, once again, you long
to take your heart ...
When you find that, once again, you long
to take your heart back and be free -
if you ever find a moment,
spare a thought for me
We never said our love was evergreen,
or as unchanging as the sea -
but if you can still remember
stop and thinkof me . . .

Think of all the things
we've shared and seen -
don't think about the things
which might have been . . .

Think of me,
think of me waking,
silent and resigned.
Imagine me, trying too hard
to put you from my mind.

Recall those days
look back on all those times,
think of the things we'll never do -
there will never be a day, when
I won't think of you . .

Apa Artinya Cinta

Semalam, waktu nonton STV, tiba-tiba ada lagu ini, ga tahu kenapa, jadi pengen aja nge-post lagunya. Ini lagunya Melly feat Ari Lasso yang dijadiin OST pada film yang berjudul sama.

Tiba-tiba engkau ada
kemudian engkau hadir
laksana kerdil ku memeluk
lihat aku lebih dalam

di matamu ku melihat
ada cinta yg tersirat
sirami hati merebak

barangkali aku salah
ku terdiam bukan bisu
tahu engkau besar malu
tutupi rasa gelisah

*
biar saja waktu nanti
yg menikmati kisah ini
bersamamu aku senang

reff:
belum juga kah kau menyadarinya
akulah yg pantas untuk kau cintai
di bawah langit biru aku bersumpah
diriku tanpamu apa artinya cinta

arti cinta ini sudah menelan waktuku
siang malam hanya untuk pikirkan engkau
sejuta kali aku berani bersumpah
diriku tanpamu apa artinya cinta

Peter Pan

baru-baru ini, salah satu band fenomenal di Indonesia asal Bandung, Peter Pan, merilis album terbaru mereka yang bertajuk Hari yang cerah. Peluncuran albumnya sendiri sangat besar-besaran, disiarkan langsung oleh enam stasiun tv nasional dan live dari dua kota di dua negara, Bandung dan Kuala Lumpur. menurut saya, hits baru peterpan, menghapus jejakmu kurang oke. tak sedahsyat perkirakan orang-orang, mungkin karena ekspektasi masyarakat terlalu tinggi kali ya...
dari sekian banyak lagu peterpan, saya cukup menyukai beberapa lagu mereka, diantaranya, "Yang Terdalam" dari album Taman Langit dan "Ku Katakan dengan Indah" dari album Bintang di Surga.

Yang Terdalam

Kulepas semua yang ku inginkan
Tak akan ku ulangi
Maafkan jika kau kusayangi
Dan bila kumenanti

Pernahkah engkau coba mengerti
Lihatlah ku disini
Mungkinkah jika aku bermimpi
Salahkah tuk menanti

Takan lelah
Aku menanti
Tak hilang
Cintaku ini
Hingga saat kau tak kembali
Kan kukenang di hati saja

Kau telah tinggalkan
Hati yang terdalam
Hingga tiada cinta
Tersisa dijiwa

Ku Katakan dengan Indah

Ku katakan indah dengan terbuka hatiku hampa
Sepertinya luka menghampirinya
Kau beri rasa yang berbeda mungkin ku salah...
Mengartikannya yang ku rasa cinta

Tetapi hatiku selalu meninggikanmu
Terlalu meninggikanmu, selalu meninggikanmu

Kau hancurkan hatiku, hancurkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu
Kau terangi jiwaku, kau redupkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu

Membuatku terjatuh dan terjatuh lagi
Membuatku merasakan yang t'lah terjadi
Semua yang terbaik dan yang terlewati
Semua yang terhenti tanpa ku akhiri

Membuatku terjatuh dan terjatuh lagi
Membuatku merasakan yang t'lah terjadi
Semua yang terbaik dan yang terlewati
Semua yang terhenti tanpa ku akhiri

Kau hancurkan hatiku tak tertahan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu
Kau terangi jiwaku kau redupkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu

Kau hancurkan hatiku, hancurkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu
Kau terangi jiwaku, kau redupkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu

Kau hancurkan hatiku, hancurkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu
Kau hancurkan hatiku, hancurkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku, hancurkan lagi
Kau hancurkan hatiku tuk melihatmu
Oooo...ooo...ooo...ooo...melihatmu

Lagu-ku (chapter 2)

nah, selain suka ngedengerin radiohead, saya juga suka ngedengerin band-band lain khususnya yg dari Inggris. band-band tersebut hampir mirip dengan radiohead, baik secara musikalitas maupun personalitas para personelnya. satu hal yang sangat menarik dari band britpop-istilah yang lebih ngetop untuk band asal inggris- ini adalah lirik lagu yang menyentuh dan karakter sang vokalis yang khas banget dan tentu saja alunan musik mereka yang berbeda.
nah, berikut 5 lagu yang saya suka banget...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suede: Everything Will Flow

VERSE1:
Watch the early morning sun
Drip like blood from the day
See the crazy people run
So many games to play
See the blue suburban dream
Under the jet plane sky
Sleep away and dream a dream
Life is just a lullaby

CHORUS:
Ah Ah Ah
And everything will flow

VERSE2:
Watch the day begin again
Whispering into the night
See the crazy people play
Hurrying under the light
A million cars, a million trains
Under the jet plane sky
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Life is just a lullaby

CHORUS

VERSE CHORDS

CHORUS

ENDING: (same chords as a chorus)
The neon lights in the night tonight will say
Everything will flow
The stars that shine in the open sky will say
Everything will flow
The lovers kissed with an openness will say
Everything will flow
The cars parked in the hypermarket know
Everything will flow
-------------------------------------------------------------

Coldplay: Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream, down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I..

Tears stream, down your face
I promise you I will learn from the mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I..

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

Muse: Muscle Museum

She had something to confess to,
But you don’t have the time so,
Look the other way.
You will wait until it's over,
To reveal what you’d never shown her,
Too little much too late.

Can you see that I am needing,
Begging for so much more,
Than you could ever give.
And I don’t want you to adore me,
Don’t want you to ignore me,
When it pleases you, yeah.
And, I’ll do it on my own.

I have played in every toilet,
But you still want to spoil it,
To prove I’ve made a big mistake.

Too long trying to resist it,
You’ve just gone and missed it,
It's escaped your world.

Can you see that I am needing,
Begging for so much more,
Than you could ever give,
And I don’t want you to adore me,
Don’t want you to ignore me,
When it pleases you yeah...

Oasis: Stand by Me

Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday I've
Gotta lot of things to learn
Said I would and I'll be leaving one day
Before my heart starts to burn

So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new...don't you know
The cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away

Times are hard when things that have got no meaning i've
Found a key upon the floor
Maybe you and i will not believe in
The thing we find behind the door

so what's the matter with you
sing me something new...don't you know
The cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away


(chorus)
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows
Yeah, nobody knows the way it's gonna be

If you're leaving will you take me with you?
I'm tired of talking on my phone
There is one thing I can never give you
My heart will never be your home

So what's the matter with you?
Sing me something new...don't you know
The cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away

Oh,oh...

(chorus)
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows
Yeah, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
The way it's gonna be, yeah
Baby I can see, yeah

Don't you know
The cold and wind and rain don't know
They only seem to come and go away

Oh, oh...

(chorus)
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows the way it's gonna be
Stand by me, nobody knows
Yeah, God only knows the way it's gonna be...

Love of my Life by Queen

Love of my life, you hurt me,
You broken my heart, now you leave me.

Love of my life can’t you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Don’t take it away from me,
Because you don’t know what it means to me.

Love of my life don’t leave me,
You’ve stolen my love now desert me,

Love of my life can’t you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Don’t take it away from me,
Because you don’t know what it means to me.

You will remember when this is blown over,
And everything’s all by the way,
When I grow older,
I will be there by your side,
To remind how I still love you
I still love you.

Hurry back hurry back,
Don’t take it away from me,
Because you don’t know what it means to me.

Love of my life,
Love of my life.

Love Hurts by Nazareth

Love hurts, love scars,
Love wounds, and marks,
Any heart, not tough,
Or strong, enough
To take a lot of pain,
Take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

I’m young, I know,
But even so
I know a thing, or two
I learned, from you
I really learned a lot,
Really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when it’s hot
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
They’re not foolin’ me

I know it isn’t true,
I know it isn’t true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh,ooh love hurts
Ooh,ooh love hurts

[guitar solo]

I know it isn’t true,
I know it isn’t true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh...

Lagu-Ku (chapter 1)

tak selamanya kita merasa senang dan bahagia, seringkali kita juga merasa bosan ato Bete. nah kala saat2 seperti itu, saya selalu berusaha untuk menghilangkan kejenuhan dan kesesakan hati dengan mendengarkan lagu. kalau lagi bete banget (seperti saat ini), saya selalu mendengarkan lagu2 Radiohead. menurut saya, lagu2 mereka sangat dalam, menyentuh dan begitu indah. lirik2 romantis dipadukan dengan karakter vocal Thom Yorke yang unik. Lagu2 yang sering saya dengarkan biasanya dari album OK Computer (menurut saya ini adalah album terbaik dari semua album yang pernah dirilis oleh Radiohead). these are below two fab songs from Radiohead from the album Amnestic and OK Computer.

Paranoid Android

Please could you stop the noise, I'm trying get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)

When I am king, you will be first against the wall
with your opinion which is of no consequence at all
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)

Ambition makes you look pretty ugly
Kicking, squealing gucci little piggy
You don't remember
You don't remember
Why don't you remember my name?
Off with his head, man
Off with his head, man
Why don't you remember my name? I guess he does...

Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me

That's it sir
You're leaving
The crackle of pigskin
The dust and the screaming
The yuppies networking
The panic, the vomit
The panic, the vomit
God loves his children, God loves his children, yeah!

they are really great, aren't they?
