Tears

   

I was in an friend's flat getting some stuff organised for him, and there was no available music to play, so I thought of putting the telly on, and tune in to MTV to get some music happening in the background.

Gosh, I can't remember the last time I watch telly (telly: Brit expression for TV). I watch films often on video, and occassionally in the cinema. That's why I'm clueless, when colleagues and friends asked me about what happened to this soap-opera or that TV program and all. But I must admit, am pretty happy not to watch TV these days, as most of the programming are rather dull, and that whole concept of having to remake TV series and dubbing are so uninteresting.

Sorry about the fastidious attitude. I guess this is what happen, when you hang out around people who talk their heads off with "interesting" stuff.

Anyway, going back to the original subject of today's blog.. I was watching this music video by Fall Out Boy called "I'm Like A Lawyer" - and suddenly "tears" rolls down on my face.. and I kept sobbing for more than a minute. I'm not sure if it's because of the actual video, or is it just because I have not cried for awhile.

Mmm.. interesting hormones/psychological reaction.

About Grief

A friend sent me a link (*) and it nailed how I feel about grief: As for grief, you’ll find it comes in waves. When the ship is first wrecked, you’re drowning, with wreckage all around you. Everything floating around you reminds you of the beauty and the magnificence of the ship that was, and is no more. And all you can do is float. You find some piece of the wreckage and you hang on for a while. Maybe it’s some physical thing. Maybe it’s a happy memory or a photograph. Maybe it’s a person who is also floating. For a while, all you can do is float. Stay alive. In the beginning, the waves are 100 feet tall and crash over you without mercy. They come 10 seconds apart and don’t even give you time to catch your breath. All you can do is hang on and float. After a while, maybe weeks, maybe months, you’ll find the waves are still 100 feet tall, but they come further apart. When they come, they still crash all over you and wipe you out. But in between, you can breathe, you can function. You n

Last night, I attended this month's Terno Inferno at Cafe SaGuijo! Line up was Giniling Festival, Swissy, Musical O, and my favourite "Up dharma Down". It was great hanging out with the bands, and friends. And of course, it was great to hear new two songs by Up dharma Down, the two new songs is titled: Every First Second & Blessed. Also played a down-tempo version of Flicker, which Armi said will be included in the sophomore album. You can check out the photos at the official Dharmalites site.

Paula Cole - Greatest Hits: Postcards from East Oceanside

Image
Seven years of being absence in the music scene, Paula Cole is back, well not really back... but her formerly label Warner Brothers in collaboration with Rhino Entertainment, decided to released a "greatest hits" album; Featuring two previously unreleased tracks -- "Tomorrow I Will Be Yours" and this greatest hits' title track, "Postcards from the East Oceanside", plus the Johnny Mercer's "Autumn Leaves," and of course, songs from her three Warner Bros. albums: "Harbinger," "This Fire," and "Amen." This obviously "let's release this record cos she's not with us anymore" scheme, left her fans the belief that label like Warner Bros, is totally about money and not really "real" musical skills. The questionable "greatest hits," includes the 1997 Best New Artist Grammy winner's sole Top Ten single, "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?" with its simple, st
