Not Emo-ing but loving emo songs :)

12 Sep 2009, Saturday

I'm not emo-ing at all, and I very seldom go into emo state, but I really like emo songs. HAHA

I just love songs that I can relate to. It doesn't have to be my own story, sometimes I listen to a song and I'll think of a friend and his/her plight or something, or some past experiences, or what I perceive to be their experiences. I dunno... I dun emo, but these songs really get to my heart, does that make sense? Hurhurr~ =p

Having said that, i'll admit i'm very partial to Eason Chan's songs and Lin Xi's lyrics. They're really emo, but really nice and applies to situations as well. The stories I personally experience, or see, or perceive unravels around these songs from time to time. And then i'm really lucky because sometimes i get (new to me) nice old songs into my song vocab and i get all excited over them that i just can't stop listening. So fun! Music is fantastic, it is it is it is~! =D It's my form of Harry Potter magic in this non-magical community of ours. Some songs are like the cheering charm; they make me so happy, think I'm Yours and In the Mood. Some songs tear me apart like crucio; think Tank's If i become a memory, and Damien Rice's The blower's daughter. Some songs do touch me so as well, think Endless love. I'm still waiting to discover my dose of Felix Felicis though ;) I want a song that makes me feel lucky~!! :)

Here's a dose of "Crucio"~
*Caution Note*
Dun emo cos of it huh ;)

Wish they didn't add in the scenes from Closer into the MTV though, cos the original scenes seem to relay the story of the song much better :l

The blower's daughter




Lyrics
And so it is just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me most of the time

And so it is the shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes... (off you)

And so it is just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time

And so it is the colder water
The Blower's Daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes... (off you)

(From gal)
Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind... my mind...my mind...

'Til I find somebody new ......

Here's the live version... I think it's so full of feel and super super nice! ;)
