Pure Morning: based on true story

A friend in need’s a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better,
A friend with breasts and all the rest,
A friend who's dressed in leather,

A friend in need’s a friend indeed,
A friend who'll tease is better,
Our thoughts compressed,
Which makes us blessed,
And makes for stormy weather,

A friend in need’s a friend indeed,
My Japanese is better,
And when she's pressed she will undress,
And then she's boxing clever,

A friend in need’s a friend indeed,
A friend who bleeds is better,
My friend confessed she passed the test,
And we will never sever,

Day's dawning, skins crawling [repeat three more times]
Pure morning, [repeat this three more times]

Kadang, gak perlu ungkapan ribuan kata untuk dilontarkan mengeluarkan seluruh perasaan dalam hati.
Kadang, hanya butuh 3 atau 4 menitan lagu yang utaian liriknya nonjok, buat memetakan perasaan itu.
Tapi terkadang pula, untaian lirik lagu itu sulit menonjok hati yang terbuat dari batu.
Bukan salah liriknya, tapi salah material dasar hatinya yang gak bisa ditembus.

Mencuri satu kalimat dari Placebo, “A friend in need is a friend indeed...” [cynical mode: *ON*]
Benarkah?
Itu yang masih gw pertanyakan.
Is there any true-friend outthere?
Tanpa disadari, kita mengklaim telah berlaku sebagai “teman baik”, tapi apakah memang benar, kita sudah menjadi “teman yang baik”?

Definisinya apa?
Ciri-cirinya apa?
Berapa persen dari ciri-ciri itu harus dimiliki sebelum mengklaim diri sendiri seorang "teman baik"?

Tell me then my ‘so-called’ good-friends...

[cynical mode: *still going ON*]

musical break: Travis

Travis - Love Will Come Through



If I told you a secret
You won't tell a soul
Will you hold it and
Keep it alive
Cause it's burning a hole
And I can't get to sleep
And I can't live alone
In this life

So look up, take it away
Don't look da-da-da-down
The mountain

If the world isn't turning
Your heart won't return
Anyone, anything, anyhow
So take me, don't leave me
Take me, don't leave me
Baby, love will come through
It's just waiting for you

And you stand at the crossroads
Of highroads and lowroads
And I've got a feeling
It's right
If it's real what I'm feeling
There's no make believing
The sound of the wings
Of the flight

Of a dove, take it away
Don't look da-da-da-down
The mountain

Oh, look up, take it away
Don't look da-da-da-down

If the world isn't turning
Your heart won't return
Anyone, anything, anyhow

So take me, don't leave me
Take me, don't leave me
Baby, love will come through
It's just waiting for you

@sedikit flashing-back ke beberapa waktu silam bersama ‘the invisible band’ Travis@

Selalu suka sama lagu-lagunya Travis yang, walau menggusung jenis lagu begini duluan, kalah tenar dari Chris Martin cs. Lagu-lagu Travis lucunya selalu simple tapi ngena. Yah, banyak memang musisi yang kayak gini.
But still, you can tell the difference between Travis, Coldplay, or... even Keane.

To those who just experienced a ‘heart-breaking’ or desperately seeking a true love out there... just remember not to look down, because ‘love will come thru. it’s just waiting for you’

Sshh!!! Quite please... Genius at WORK

How satisfied and lovely it is to see a genius playing.
And last 2007 Masters Cup Final, it just happened again.
Federer is just too strong for Ferrer, but must salute David for such a good-unpredictable play in this tournament.

Well, I quoted Rafael Nadal’s comment on the day Roger defeated him in semi-finals, “when he’s 100 percent, he’s playing in another league. It’s impossible to stop him.”

Uhm… indeed!

Relax Rafa there’ll always be ‘next time better’.
You played well but what d’ya know, he played VERY well. [like you said, ‘he was playing in another league’]

...how to save a life...

Step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

When the tide of life turns against you
And the current upsets your boat,
Don't waste tears on what might have been,
Just lie on your back and float.
[anonymous-quoteland]
....who knows i’ll be on your very side, reaching out the hands, waiting for you to finally grasp them then you are saved...

lagu ‘kehilangan’, entah kenapa selalu bisa menyedot seluruh energi dan pada akhirnya, menghasilkan satu scene yang cantik. In my case, lagu bertema ‘lost’ inspires me the most.
Kheh, what do you know.... “every crowd has a silver lining” [phineas taylor barnum] ^_^

...have heart then you’ll know how to save a life...

musical break: kula shaker

Tattva

tattva, acintya bheda bheda Tattva [4x]
like the flower and the scent of summer,
like the sun and the shine
well, the truth may come in strange disguises
send the message to your mind

tattva, acintya bheda bheda Tattva [4x]
at the moment that you wake from sleeping,
and you know it’s all a dream
well, the truth may come in strange disguises
never knowing what it means

tattva, acintya bheda bheda Tattva [4x]
for you will be tomorrow
like you have been today
if this was never ending,
what more can you say??

@kula shaker. album ‘K’@


Kemana ya band ini? Itu yang mendadak merasuki gw saat mendapati sebuah kaset rekaman jaman gw SMA dulu yang isinya satu album pertama Kula Shaker bertitel “K”. Dan jawabannya gw dapati saat search ini band di wicked-pedia. Ternyata mereka ngeluarin album baru berjudul ‘Strangefolk’. Yippie!
Baru dengerin satu singlenya sih yang judulnya ‘Second Sight’, versi live pula. Hmm... menarik. Walau udah reformasi [dan menua], mereka tetep eksis dengan alirannya yang dipengaruhi India itu.

Untuk merayakan kembalinya ‘Kula Shaker’, gw menghabiskan sisa memori USB-flashdisk gw untuk men-download beberapa [beberapa?! Kayaknya buanyaak deeh ^_^V] lagu versi live act yang diedarkan bebas di situs ini. Lumayan, bisa sedikit mengingat-ingat masa lalu.
Sebenernya sih, dengerin Kula Shaker itu paling oke klo kondisi lagi ada di ‘perbatasan’, sambil merem-melek trus menggoyangkan tubuh ke kiri dan kanan secara perlahan. Aiiih....mantaab [pake ‘b’ niiih].

Dari semua hits Kula Shaker yang sering beredar di radio, gw paling suka Tattva. Enak.
Ooh, kata mbah wiki, Tattva itu... “Tattva is a Sanskrit word meaning 'thatness', 'principle', 'reality' or 'truth'”

...well the truth may come in strange disguises...
indeed.
