A Little Song for You

This song is originally from Bryan Adams - Heaven. Just a short cover by me and my Him, who is also the keyboardist. It's not that pro and yet it was recorded with just an Iphone only. =)

Lyrics:

Oh, thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more

[Chorus]
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Yeah, nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh, there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
'Cause our love will light the way

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Yeah, I'll be standin' there by you

For a friend that is now far far away at Heaven.

We miss you so much.

Love.

Band Performing 3 Jan 2012

One of the video

We are performing Ding Dang's 'Wo Shi Yi Zhi Xiao Xiao Niao' 

(Small Small Bird) =)

Finally is the day we perform in cafe. Although is a small cafe, unlike Station One or any other famous cafe, but i was freaking excited. Performed around 10 songs. Thanks for my bay arranged this performance for me. Thanks my friend Roxz who performing guitar for us too.

Two days after that i went pub singing with my colleagues. The sense of accomplishment made me excited and happy. I able to grab the attention of group of strangers to sing along with me, they screamed and clap during ending. Most probably the effect of alcohol but i'm still proud to say this is what i've wanted. The feeling of making people happy and enjoy. Tho i cant speak well during performance in cafe, but i willing to learn. Thanks for the chances given, thank you cafe boss. 

A very good and unforgetable memory my Bay arranged for me. Thanks. Thanks for everything. I'm glad that we have quite a number of common interest. =) Before i forget, thanks too for friends who came support.

Cheers readers. =) 

Ps: Sorry for the bad quality recording =)

Chris Medina - What Are Words

2011 American Idol castoff Chris Medina

The guy who touched everyone's hearts and possibly made us shed a little tear with his heartbreaking love story about his girlfriend who currently suffers from brain injury due to a car accident.

Chris Medina - What Are Words

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

And I know an angel was sent
just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, they never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

I'm forever keeping my angel close

The Story Behind :

Chris Medina fell in love with Juliana the first moment he saw her and the two became engaged in the coffee shop she worked in 2007. They had planned to wed two years after getting engaged, but shortly before they could walk down the aisle, Juliana suffered a brain injury in a tragic car accident. On the exact day the were supposed to get married, he shared a song he wrote for his ladylove on Facebook. His heartfelt lyrics.

" I am giving all i have got to give

To pull you through

To set you free

More than the vow

Through thick and thin

I am living it

In your darkest hour i will be your light "

What are words if you really dont mean them when you say it? What are words if they are only for good times? I like this two sentences in the song " What Are Words". Meaningful. Understandable promises and compliances made during sweet times of couples. But what is the meaning of those words when you dont even fulfilling them? What is those words mean when they only for the sweetener of times. I heard before this quotation from guys, "promises are made to be broken". Well what i can say is, promises are not meant for broken. Promises are debt unpaid. There is a price to pay. So whenever you have made promises and words, seriously you are reliable for it then. 

Dont break the heart of your loves one. They are the one that you shouldnt be selfish with. Nowadays who will be able to do that? He is definitely one in a million. Promises are love. They never go away, they live on even when we are gone. Chris's selfless love to Juliana. They made me believed in love, again. True love does exist in this world!

All the best for them.

Stage

A stage is the world of performers 

Is performers' everything

Is where they earn money, is where they live

Yesterday being set up by my friends, being called up stage to perform a song during a singing competition organized by a temple here in Kampar. Tonight the official anniversary dinner of the temple, i ran away. Although it was just for the ending of the show, it was just for fun, i still feel shame shame. Although i got very good respond from down stage, my friends, my god daddy and brothers, although everyone was having fun, but still i dont deserve to stand there. For me, a stage is a very serious place, you have to be qualified to stand there and perform or being a mc. Because everyone is looking at you and there is no second take, no mistake is permitted. 

Oh, anyway, thank you dear god brother *lol* standing beside accompany me, in fact he is the one who got me involved. Thank you mc duet with me, although people said he actually was making noise pollution instead of duet. Thank you my Bay and friends, gang of Team Orion standing down there giving support with a lot of claps, whistle and screaming, although i still havent finished the song. *lol* Thank you for those audiences, auntie uncle pause there standing there listen when i have started to sing, although it was the ending song for the day and they were on their way to leave, thank you for holding back your steps for me. *lol* Thank you for some compliments from elders, although i know it was a good deed, for being kind. *smile*

Anyway, is a good experience. I totally forgotten when is the last time i standing on a stage for any purposes. The one that i able to remember i guess is when i was in secondary school, my daddy get me involved in his school's open singing competition out of no where. Got a consolation prize only. *lol* And it's like ages. Then reminds me of something. Something called "stage fright".

It's an anxiety, fear or phobia for those people who need to perform in front of an audience. I used to be very nervous and heart beats extremely fast, sometimes even feel hard to breathe when standing on stage facing faces that i dont even know single of it. But i guess now i am ok. At least yesterday didnt nervous didnt panic, but just feeling kind of shame.*lol* Anyway, stage fright is something everyone should try to avoid or overcome, seriously imagine if you have a very serious fright, how are you going for interview or so? I guess the most important is to boost up confidence. 

Boosting up confidence is good individually, but not overdoing it like some other person. Over-confidence caused a lot of issues. Have some confidence on yourself by knowing where is the limit is the best.

Have a nice day everyone. :-)
