new wave

New Wave is a sub-genre of rock music that emerged in the mid to late 1970s alongside punk rock. The term at first generally was synonymous with punk rock before being considered a genre in its own right that incorporated aspects of electronic and experimental music, mod subculture, disco and 1960s pop music. 

New Wave, as a term, has been used to describe all post-punk rock music, yet, it distances itself from other post-punk movements as it displays characteristics common to pop music, rather than the more "arty" post-punk.

As a genre, it incorporates much of the original punk rock sound and ethos, such as an emphasis on short and punchy songs. As a term, New Wave is often used to describe music which was quirky and eccentric, yet also catchy and pop at heart, incorporating clear melodious hooks. In such a way, its style varies greatly, ranging from 1950s and 60s rock revivalism, ska and reggae-styled music, to synthpop-oriented dance.

Foo Fighters - Learn to Fly

Run and tell all of the angels, this could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution ‘cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughin’ and watched the last one die

Yeah, I’m lookin’ to the sky to save me
Lookin’ for a sign of life
Lookin’ for something to help me burn out bright
I’m lookin’ for a complication
Lookin’ ‘cause I’m tired of lyin’
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high

I think I’m dyin' nursing patience
It can wait one night
I’d give it all away if you give me one last try
We’ll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything’s alright

I’m lookin’ to the sky to save me
Lookin’ for a sign of life
Lookin’ for somethin’ to help me burn out bright
I’m lookin’ for a complication
Lookin’ ‘cause I’m tired of tryin’
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high
Make my way back home when I learn to…

Fly along with me, I can’t quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own
Fly along with me, I can’t quite make it alone
Try to make this life my own

I’m lookin’ to the sky to save me
Lookin’ for a sign of life
Lookin’ for somethin’ to help me burn out bright
I’m lookin’ for a complication
Lookin’ ‘cause I’m tired of tryin’
Make my way back home when I learn to

sunshine in a bag

I love the song and the music vid!

Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
I'm happy, I' m feelin glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long the future is comin' on

behind love stories

Man loves action movies and maybe suspense. Ladies are usually seen watching comedy chick flicks, drama and love stories. Both men and women loves fantasy or horror. I may be specifically wrong but, whatever your preference is, it will be easily identify by gender.

Unlike me, I prefer it in the opposite haha. I love heavy action, suspense and thriller then, though as we all know, usual comedy chick flicks will start in impossible-reality and every ending is almost the same, it’s my preference as a comfort movie. I may not be into heavy drama and predictable love stories but - I surely love watching movies.

It is rare to me to recommend any movie without any action, but then there were some that, for me, is exceptional, something that is more than just a romance. Expect me to be amazed, (not to mention a very creative flow of story) every time that I find something “different” or something that the writer or maker had exposed unexpected ORIGINALITY.

The real essence in every story is when you dig deeper, but then the question is, if you really have something to dig in. If there is, then that’s what I am talking about. I prepared at least three:

City of Angels

People of the 90’s who doesn’t know this movie? If you really found out that city of angels (awaited movie back in the last decade) is just a trying hard to be a unique story – in short “corny” (I agree).

Then you should had listen to the soundtrack - no single word had been outcast because, its lyrics, line by line, was perfectly connected to its movie:

OST: Goo Goo Dolls - Iris

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

500 Days of Summer 

As the movie started with my favorite line "This is a story of boy-meets-girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story"

The perfect characterization of Tom and Summer made the movie so special, the love story is made perfectly bound not to be predicted.

This postmodern love story is never what we expect it to be – it’s thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn’t quite go where we think it will.  - Facebook Page

Especially when this movie is demonstrating REALITY vs. FATE, DESTINY vs. COINCIDENCE, you’ll wonder what will take place.

And how’s it gonna be with a  couple who doesn’t have a  perfect relationship but made their time together the very best. I definitely love this movie!

The Notebook

If you’re a fan of classic then, The notebook is one of the rare modern movie that is to be set in its best that it can, way back in 1940’s-50’s, expect its vintage vibes along with its classic story.

Almost everyone knows that this book turned movie is written by a best-selling author, Nicholas Sparks, whose forte is generally in love stories.

The movie started with a usual scene that an old man is telling a story.

The movie is quite long and I bet you don’t mind because by it scenes and settings alone, are very attractive (as I said, it’s classic) and it will really make you think what will happen, what would it be?

Some parts may make you think it won’t, some parts will make you think it will. But this one? It ends happily, without making it very predictable in the first part of conflict.

Because you're inciting pity by yourself

Because you're inciting pity by yourself i have nothing to do with that really :)) i'ts like assuming that you find out something negative happening that you barely know.

Well i tell you this, you found out exactly the same things you do to your neighbors. You are making this easy, accusing people that they had done something exactly the same thing you do to them? FUNNY HOW YOU DEFINE YOURSELF. Sometimes people deserves to be pathetic, you and your pathetic friends. =))

You are now having the same feeling that you had made them feel before, it's called karma.

Kudos to my friend who had bring out the best in your own settings of priority. cheers! But i notice you're unaware on the character of a person you are becoming. :)

This is a music video link dedicated for you. Such a perfect song that fits very well in persons like you.

No offense and no worries. Why? There's always plenty of reasons:

1. Because you will never ever see me against your true being, this will be the last time i'll pay attention to this, if you continue then it's your choice.

2. I don't want to pay attention to details because you're someone i should barely confront right? because that's what you do to me, so okay i will deal with that :)

3. This post expresses my concern, it's up to you if you're mostly comfortable acquiring this against you. Attitude Problem wasn't my problem anyway, by the word itself - it's yours.

I emphasized the bolded lines in the lyrics for you. :) and the music video link ready

Bat your eyes

girl.

Be otherworldly.

Count your blessings.

Seduce a stranger.

What's so wrong with being happy?

KUDOS TO THOSE WHO SEE THROUGH SICKNESS...yeah

Over and over and over and over...........

She woke in the morning.

She knew that her life had passed her by

She called out a warning.

Don't ever let life pass you by.

I suggest we

Learn to love ourselves,

Before its made illegal

When will we learn, When will we change

Just in time to see it all come down

Those left standing will make millions

Writing books on ways it should have been

She woke in the morning.

She knew that her life had passed her by

She called out a warning.

Don't ever let life pass you by.

Floating in this cosmic Jacuzzi

We are like frogs oblivious

Soon the water starting to boil,

Now I flinched and we all float face down

She woke in the morning.

She knew that her life had passed her by

She called out a warning.

Don't ever let life pass you by.

Pass you by.

terminate

Kung wala ka nang gustong sabihin

Huwag ka nang tumigin ng ganyan,

Kung bukas ako'y kalilimutan

Sana naman ngayo'y
di mo na isiping ako'y tawagan

[Pre-refrain]

At habang may panahon

Huwag na nating hintaying, lumalim pa

At masakit nang tanggapin

[Chorus]

Ang pag-alis ng iyong liwanag
Na gumising sa mahabang gabi

Ika'y langit ngunit baka masanay

At di na kakayanin ang iyong pag alis

Kung wala ka ng gustong marinig

Ako'y aalis at mananahimik

Ang kahapon na nais kong limutin

Sana naman huwag ng manumbalik,

At bigyan pansin

(Repeat pre-refrain)

(Repeat chorus)

Found Thought

I love the lyrics so much as well as the whole music, been listening to it for the past few days; over and over again.. i wish this song is longer, like 10 minutes. Haha.. sometimes i am amazed realizing that i will find out the exact words in such lyrics; the words i barely can't deliver:

HAPPY VALENTINES! :)

Here Is Gone

You and I got somethin
But it's all and then it's nuthin to me, yeah
And I got my defenses
When it comes through your intentions for me, yeah

And we wake up in the breakdown
With the things we never thought we could be, yeah

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
We got to move you darlin
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

And I want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

I am no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me, yeah
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me, yeah

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
We got to move you darlin
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

And I want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

And I dont need the fallout
Of all the past that's in between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

And I want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

And I want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling

I know it's out there
I know it's out there
And I can feel you falling

I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone, yeah

I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone, yeah
