7

i don't know what so special about this number but somehow i like it so much. i always mention it whenever people asking me about anything that need number on it. so my father.

but today, this morning, i like most then any other time. that's when i got text massages from my hubby. "happy 7th month of our marriage", he said. yeah, it tears me in burst. i don't care if it sounds so shallow.


i know we didn't have a perfect marriage like in the fairytale. the happily ever after thing. we argue a lot. live separately. communication just by text messages. i know it's not good and a healthy live. but this is what we have right now.

then, by noon i find this song. a song from jason mraz latest album. with this song he show me thing like you teach me. to believe in love (again). and i know definitely that this was us. so i dedicated this song just for you for us....

i won't give up

When I look into your eyes
It’s like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There’s so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you’ve come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up

And when you’re needing your space
To do some navigating
I’ll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

‘Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We’ve got a lot to learn
God knows we’re worth it
No, I won’t give up

I don’t wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I’m here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you’re still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn’t break, we didn’t burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I’ve got, and what I’m not
And who I am

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up
Still looking up.

I won’t give up on us (no I’m not giving up)
God knows I’m tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We’ve got a lot to learn (we’re alive, we are loved)
God knows we’re worth it (and we’re worth it)

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up

Song to Listen and See (1)

Musik buat saya satu hal yang tidak pernah bisa dipisahkan dari kehidupan. Dosa besar tuh kalau ada yang berani mencoba membuat musik hilang dari dunia hihihi lebay. Biarin ah. Tapi benar saya benar-benar belajar banyak dari musik dan segala hal tentangnya. memang sih saya sering telat tau kalau lagu itu bagus. Biasanya sih kalau udah ada pengamen yang bawain. Nah itu biasanya berlaku buat lagu-lagunya GIGI (Hihihi punten nya kang Armand). Sering saya baru ngeh kalau lagunya oke setelah mendengarkan versi pengamen. Mungkin karena bener-bener fokus buat dengerin. Beda kalau saya mendengarkannya sambil siaran. Tapi beda banget dengan lagu-lagunya Katy Perry. Penyanyi yang makin seneng buka-bukaan tapi gak setuju ML sebelum merit ini, lagu-lagunya justru saya nikmatin setelah dibawakan dengan cara yang berbeda oleh penyanyi lain.

Misalnya saja Teenage Dream nya. Saya baru "Ngeh" dengan liriknya yang kuat banget setelah denger versinya Boyce Avenue. Dalam banget liriknya. Begitu juga dengan lagu Firework nya. Oke lah selain denger versi Boyce mulailah saya cari klip nya. Dan.... ternyata emang oke banget lagunya. KEREN. Dalam banget.

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
 So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Coba deh, siapa kira lagu ini bener-benar asyik buat dinikmatin syair dan musiknya? Two tumbs Up.


Tapi coba nikmati juga versinya Boyce dengan liriknya yang agak sedikit beda. Lagu yang bener-bener dalem.

Bener-bener lagu yang asyik buat menyemangati di saat kegalauan melanda.

If you only knew what the future holds. After a hurricane comes a rainbow Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed. So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road.
Don’t let them to take your life for granted. you’re the only one who needs to rule your world. When life leaves you feel empty-handed. Lie low and show ‘em what you’re worth.
