Mazzy Star - Fade Into You

I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath thats true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
Youll come apart and youll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with whats not there.

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew

A strangers light comes on slowly
A strangers heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think its strange you never knew
I think its strange you never knew

Lisa Loeb - Stay

You say I only hear what I want to
You say I talk slow all the time so

And I thought what I felt was simple
And I thought that I don't belong
And now that I am leavin'
Now I know that I did somethin' wrong 'cause I missed you
Yeah, yeah, I missed you

And you say I only hear what I want to
I don't listen hard, don't pay attention
To the distance that you're running
To anyone, anywhere
I don't understand if you really care
I'm only hearing negative
No, no, nos

So I, I turn the radio on, I turn the radio up
And this woman was singin' my song
Lover's in love and the other's run away
Lover is crying cause the other won't stay
Some of us hover while we weep for the other who was
Dyin' since the day they were born
Well, well, this is not that
I think that I'm throwin', but I'm thrown

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure
You try to tell me that I'm clever
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you

You said that I was naive
And I thought that I was strong, oh
I thought, "Hey I can leave, I can leave"
Oh, but now I know that I was wrong, cause I missed you
Yeah, I missed you

You said, you caught me cause you want me*
And one day you let me go
You try to give away a keeper, or keep me
Cause you know you're just so scared to lose
And you say, "Stay"

You say I only hear what I want to

23

This is not a review on the the recent movie The Number 23.
But instead, it's about me!

Happy Birthday to me!

This year's celebration was better than what i had expected. I usually hate birthdays because i don't know what i'lll be doing on that day, or whom i'll be spending it with. More often than not, i usually get so paranoid about having to spend my birthday by myself like a loser.

Anyway, on the eve of my birthday celebration, i hung out with my sydney friends. We had such a ball of time. From dinner at some Ramen restaurant to clubbing at St James Power Station. I found a new love ie St James Power Station. It's not your typical Zouk/MOS-like club. When ppl say they go to St James to club, i don't think they meant clubbing per se. Well, the thing about St James is that, there's so much more entertainment value than any of the other clubs i've visited. Instead of mindless, never-ending trance mixes, what you get are excellent live bands performing at different arena. You have the canto-pop arena which plays cheena JJ Lin songs + ahpek Thai songs, followed by techno; there's an arena for trance/house.whatever. I can't tell the difference, there's also a latin/salsa arena. And last but not least, a place which played decent music ie: Boiler Room. For a moment, i felt like i was clubbing in Walas. The band was pretty good so to speak. They played a wide genre of songs from rock to retro to bubblegum pop. All in the great name of fun. It also felt like i was attending a gig. Me standing right in front of the stage, with the amplifers driving me almost half deaf.

It was a terrific experience nonetheless, considering it was only $15!. The best part: I didn't have to feel like one of the sardines in a can. There's definitely ample space to walk and dance. The crowd however is unlike what you usually see at zouk. You can tell ppl there are from the working class. Hence, i fit in. Haha. One day, i willl drive there with my mazda....RX8!

Birthday dinner with the folks was better than usual. No more typical Long Beach seafood, or NYDC or Marche. My mum suggested the Esplanade, and we settled for dinner at Harry's. They have pretty good food. I had tenderloin steak. Heh. And guess who was performing at the waterfront? EIC, together with Shirlyn from The UnXpected. Cuz i think it was a launch of her new debut or something. Quite my lucky day huh, good food coupled with great music. And then i had a Belgian Waffle from Max Brennar. Talk about guilt. Eeks.

Last but not least, i would like to thank everyone who wished me on my special day. Those relentless smses that keep coming in really made my day. To those those whom i haven't met or haven't spoken for yonks, but still wished me, i truly appreciate it alot. All of you still have a place in my heart. Awww.
And to my goood friends, thanks for the overseas smses and calls. I love you guys!
And my folks for that excellent Strawberry Cheesecake from Spinelli's.

Big hugs and kisses to you guys.
These songs are dedicated to all of you! And both they're titles are called 23






Right now, i've got my M9 to study for. Exams in a week's time. How not to feel stressed? I can finally be a student again until May. So whoever wants to ask me out to study, feel free to do so.

You - Switchfoot

Mix Tape - Butch Walker

My love for Mark, Tom and Travis

Anyone who was with me throughout my adolescence years would know that i was an ardent fan of Blink 182.
Blink 182 was an 'unknown' band, only when they started releasing their 4th album entitled Take off your pants and Jacket (pun intended, it was meant to be jack it) Hehe. The first time i heard Blink on radio, i was disappointed. They became a pop punk band from then on.

People think that oh, listening to Blink makes them a cool punk. That was when i was wrongly accused of being some punk rock chick.

What rubbish i tell them.

I knew about Blink 182 when i was in Sec2. The first song i heard was Dammit which was on their Dude Ranch album. No one knew about this band. No one has ever heard of their Cheshire Cat, Dude Ranch and Enema of the State albums.
In my opinion, these albums were the best. No doubts about it.

And may i present to you, the best of Blink 182

*cheers for Mark Hoppus* for he has the nicest set of teeth EVER! He is so hot!

Carousel (Live)


Dammit


Adam's Song


Stay Together For The Kids

Bush - Inflatable

In all honesty, i think this is a very good song for some nice romantic sex, and not the wild rahh rahhh sorta sex. What do you think?

And Gavin Rossdale is so so hot, looks abit like Jude Law. No?

Life Is Beautiful - Vega4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYHNuAt1hds

or click here for the live version

Life is beautiful
We live until we die

When you run into my arms,
We steal a perfect moment.
Let the monsters see you smile,
Let them see you smilling.

Do I hold you too tightly?
When will the hurt kick in?

Life is beautiful, but it's complicated.
We barely make it.
We don't need to understand,
There are miracles, miracles.

Yeah, life is beautiful.
Our hearts, they beat and break.

When you run away from harm,
Will you run back into my arms,
Like you did when you were young?
Will you come back to me?

I will hold you tightly
When the hurting kicks in.

Life is beautiful, but it's complicated,
we barely make it.
We don't need to understand,
There are miracles, miracles.

Stand where you are.
We let all these moments pass us by.

It's amazing where I'm standing,
There's alot that we can give.
This is ours just for the moment,
There's alot that we can give.

Life is certainly beautiful.

How To Save A Life

If you've been a fan of Grey's Anatomy, then this song should be familiar to you.

Featured on Season 2, on this episode about Superstitions

Insensitive

Dashboard Confessional - Hands Down

I would pay a hefty sum, just to attend their concert. When the fuck are they coming to Singapore? Not that Singaporeans would appreciate their music. I'm better off flying to Aussie to watch them.

周杰伦 - 你比从前快乐

If you don't like this song or Jay, you're definitely biased against mandarin pop.
How can anyone not like Jay? (not anne's bf)
Me is effectively billingual
I can even type chinese characters



I love jayyy chou!!

Dishwalla - Somewhere In The Middle

My all time favourite band!

The Afters - Beautiful Love

Boston - Augustana

in the light of the sun, is there anyone? oh it has begun...
oh dear you look so lost, eyes are red and tears are shed,
this world you must've crossed...you said...

you don't know me, you don't even care,
you don't know me, you don't wear my chains...

essential and appealed, carry all your thoughts across
an open field,
when flowers gaze at you...they're not the only ones who cry
when they see you
you said...

you don't know me, you don't even care,
you don't know me, you don't wear my chains...

she said I think I'll go to Boston...
I think I'll start a new life,
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather,
I think I'll get a lover and fly em out to Spain...
I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new tow, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset,
I hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice...
Boston...where no one knows my name...

Deep Blue Something

You'll say, we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say, the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care

And I said, "what about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I remember the film
And as I recall, i think, we both kind of liked it"
And I said, "well that's, one thing we've got"

I see you,  the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now, it's plain to see we're over
And I hate when things are over
When so much is left undone

And I said, "what about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I, remember the film
And, as I recall, I think, we both kind of liked it"
And I said, "well that's, one thing we gots"

You'll say, that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care

And I said, "what about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
She said, "I think I, remember that film
And, as I recall, I think, we both kind of liked it"
And I said, "well that's, one thing we gots"

Green Day - Give me Novacaine (i thought it was novocaine?)

Take away the sensation inside,
Bittersweet migraine in my head,
It's like a throbbing toothache,
Of the mind,
I can't take this feeling anymore

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight,
And everything will be alright,
Tell me that I won't feel a thing

Give me novacaine

Out of body and out of mind,
Kiss the demons out of my dreams,
I get the funny feeling and that's alright,
Jimmy says it's better than here

(I'll never get high)

Drain the pressure from the swelling,
This sensations overwhelming,
Give me a long kiss goodnight,
And everything will be alright,
Tell me Jimmy, I won't feel a thing

Give me novacaine

FYI, novacaine or novocaine is a anesthetic drug, to numb pains (eg, during tooth extraction)
If only it could numb emotional pains.
Aka Procaine (the generic name). Novocaine is just the tradename.
