The Space Between

20th Mar 2010 by Chris

Ambient music takes me to a point of silence and peace inside my head.  Sometimes its so noisy and filled with so many thoughts that I can’t hear what “I” truly want to say.  Then there are emotions that you’d want to drown out in this peace, but sometimes can’t because they are rhythmically and painfully louder than your thoughts.

I always knew countless music/melody that were my favorites were mostly melancholic.  Nonetheless, I loved listening to them.  Zero 7 has that kind of sound that thugs on the sad strings of my personality.  The lyrics are sometimes obscure and that the real meaning for the song becomes dependent on the listener.  Like this one..  Right now, this is how I feel. more…

Smile

17th Feb 2010 by Chris

The song is inspiring. :) Heard it at 96.3 while I was working.

Artist: Uncle Kracker
Title: Smile

You’re better then the best
I’m lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that’s right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it’s ok, yeah it’s ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you’re gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Don’t know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

(That’s) All I ask of you

9th Feb 2010 by Chris

My sister was watching The Phantom of the Opera for her project, and I thought I would join her.  This gave me LSS afterwards.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful to keep wishing for a love as sweet as this?  Love is a wonderful emotion.. but when its gone, its an ugly feeling.  I only wish I’m not human enough to keep wanting to fall in love.  Sigh..

Why can’t it be?

24th Jan 2010 by Chris

Artist: 3rd Avenue
Title: Why can’t it be?

You came along, unexpectedly
I was doing fine in my little world
Oh baby please don’t get me wrong
‘Cause I’m not complaining
But you see, you got my mind spinning

REFRAIN:
Why can’t it be
Why can’t it be the two of us
Why can’t we be lovers
Only friends
You came along
At the wrong place, at the wrong time
Or was it me

Baby I dream of you every minute
You’re in my dreams
You’re always in it
That’s the only place I know
Where you could be mine
And I’m yours (Baby I’m yours)
Only till I wake up

REFRAIN:
Why can’t it be
Why can’t it be the two of us
Why can’t we be lovers
Only friends
You came along
At the wrong place, (you came along) at the wrong time
Or was it me

REFRAIN:
Why can’t it be
Why can’t it be the two of us
Why can’t we be lovers
Only friends
You came along
At the wrong place, (you came along) at the wrong time
You came along at the wrong place
At the wrong time
Or was it me (Or was it me)

Why can’t it be…

Out Here on My Own

17th Jan 2010 by Chris

We have family and friends.  They are always around us.  People surround us.. but in the end, we are really just alone.  When you think about something, its just you speaking.  Its your own voice you hear and your own thoughts you see and ponder on.  There is nobody inside you but you alone.  In your life, there is only one timeline.. your own.

The thought of it makes one realize the essence of being alone, but not leading to “loneliness”.  Its not about being sad that we are alone.  I think its the confrontation of this fact that makes me realize that I can cross different timelines and be a part of other people’s lives.. but in the end its my own that will matter.  And so, I shouldn’t bother about making myself known to others.  Its more important for me to love and know myself.  Its a tough world we live in and everybody is just out on their own. more…

Where are you now?

8th Jan 2010 by Chris

This is really inspiring.  I just heard the music in the cab on the way to work.  I think its great thinking that everyone we’ve met in our lives are all important.. not to miss those who gave us heartaches and the joys.  Thank you everyone!  Acquaintances, old friends, new friends, former enemies, and new best buds.  If it wasn’t for all of you, I would never be who I am. :)

Looking for Inuyasha

3rd Jan 2010 by Chris

I thought about my 2009.  Found myself thinking about things that make me happy and things that I tend to look for.  I watched a bit of Inuyasha, and ended up looking up my favorite Inuyasha songs.  Not only do these songs sounds good for me, the lyrics are also touching.

See and listen to: My Will, Fukai Mori and No more words more…

With me

31st Dec 2009 by Chris

Title: With me
Artist: Sum 41

I don’t want this moment to ever end
Where everything’s nothing without you
I’ll wait here forever just to, to see you smile
‘Cause it’s true, I am nothing without you more…

Getting to know each other

24th Dec 2009 by Chris

Fancy I hear this song twice in a span of 10hours since last night after almost a decade of not hearing it. lawl. :)

Artist: Ariel Rivera
Title: Getting to know each other

I call you and you call me
It’s funny how we get on so easily
We’re just friends aren’t we
You’ve got yours, I’ve got mine
And friends are all we ever could be
( But ) We’re getting to know each other
A little too well
( Getting to know each other )
( A little too well )
We’re starting to show our feelings
And people can tell
( Ooh, people can tell )
Ev’ry time that your eyes meet mine
I light up like a neon sign
Yes, We’re getting to know each other
A little too well…
( Getting to know each other )
( A little too well… )
We have lunch ev’ry now and then
And I find myself humming love songs
Again and again…
Too many nights I’m workin’ ’till ten
And I hope that you know
That It’s hopeless to go on when…
( Repeat chorus except last line )
( Getting to know each other… )
Getting to know each other…
A little too well…
( Getting to know each other… )
( A little too well… )
