Season of the Sakura February 22, 2008

The one thing that I love about the season of Spring is because it’s the blooming time of the Sakura (: !

I’ve always been amazed by many Japanese musicians who’ve composed and performed songs that inspired by Sakura.
Their works are totally cool and very heart warming x)

Well, I can share some examples too.

Mika Nakashima – Sakurairo Mau Koro

“This song is a lyrical and heartwarming love song about lovers parting in springtime. Mika uses her extraordinary singing skills, blending her tender vocals with the stirring piano and strings accompaniment. The song is written by an upcoming singer/songwriter Kawae Minako, who was inspired by Mika’s strong presence and wrote the song in a day.”

Angela Aki – Sakura Iro

“Even now my home is gently
echoing throughout my heart
I can hear that song right now…

Oh my beloved, if I close my eyes
I can see the two of us, way back then
the sight of you, colored by the Sakura
the image of myself, colored by the Sakura
oh that time, of the Sakura color
I will never, ever, never
ever, forget”

Sakura-Iro notes:

This song is not a romantic love song, even though it could be interpreted as such. According to Angela herself, it is a song about her grandmother and how the time they spent together during her youth strengthened her.

And lastly,

Hoshimura Mai – Sakura Hiyori

I’m sure those Bleach’s fan out there will find this familiar right? (;

Okay, It’s kinda sad that I couldn’t really find the translation lyrics :x but by listening to the song, it certainly warms your heart eh? haha!

Our Obsession February 9, 2008

Now playing: Corrinne May – If You Didn’t Love Me
via FoxyTunes

I still find it hard to understand how this thing can actually changes everything.
From the day we were born and until we die, we simply want this thing to stay with us all the time.
The love of our music, friends, family etc… it’s hard to live without them isn’t it ?

Whatever it is,  Please do remember not to give up on it.
Because it keeps us moving on from time to time, it never stops

“You know… for me, love is… the perfect thing to sing about.”

- Celine Dion

 

 

That was one of my favorite song from Celine Dion, “Color of my love”, written by my favorite song writer too (: David Foster!

I’ll trace a hand to wipe out your tears
A look to calm your fears
A silhouette of dark and light
While we hold each other oh so tight I’ll paint a sun to warm your heart
Swearing that we’ll never part
That’s the color of my love

“Moving on to love, something that I very obsesses with.
I think about it all the time
I write about it a lot…
certainly, searched for all my life, i found it… it’s a wonderful thing.
But this song is about
the fear of love
the fear of commitment
but at the same time not want to look back on your life with lots of regrets
well, really screw things up…
Live now.”
-Sarah Mclachlan
” I will Remember you”

Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin’ in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

I’m so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn’t let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don’t let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

 

 

 

 

A simple math calculation (: February 1, 2008

Filed under: Gospel, deep thoughts — sandiriffic @ 12:15 am

Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their work

If one falls down,
his friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls
and has no one to help him up!

Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?

– Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

Oh look! We’re heading to end of year 2 soon!
So far, I have to say I really enjoyed a lot, especially this semester (:

Just some random thoughts that came to my mind.
Well, just wondering….

those irony thoughts and things that come from us.
A good example is …
Sometimes you wanted to have people around you, However sometimes you might prefer to be alone.

perhaps you didn’t know you actually waiting for an answer.
From one of my favorite Celine Dion’s song, “I knew I loved you”

Here in the incandescent glow
We are all we need to know
As we softly please each other
‘Til the stars and shadow glow
And we sleep
With our dreams around us.

so hey, what would it be like… if I meet anyone of you like 2,3 years earlier?
haha. just random-
