As a writer, words, especially lyrics, resonate with me
and feed my soul. The power of words
never ceases to amaze me; they can pump you up, tear you apart, leave you
breathless or empathize with you when you need it the most. My father work around Europe for his entire
life and when he come back home, he always bought a cassette from various
artist like Celine Dion, Abba, The Kelly Family, even Britney Spears’s first album.
So, at the age of 11, listen to westerner’s music was my hobby.
At that time, I don’t
understand what they have said or meant in their lyrics but I keep listening to
it. That was when I know that I loved
music. When I was in high school, I
understand the westerner’s
lyrics in their songs and once I understand it, I embrace it – because they were describe what I felt and what I have
been through in this beautiful word.
I was 21 when I bought my first laptop. I downloaded so
many songs and also tried to recover all the songs that I have been listening
when I was a kid. Since I have a very big collection of music, I bought myself
a hard drive but now it sits in my drawer with the dreaded sad-face, meaning
the hard drive is shot. I had a matching
sad face for months.
Honestly, I was one of truly luckiest person alive
because I manage to copy (not all files but still lucky) before it been worse.
I take the experience as a lesson so now, I have 2 hard drives. Safer that way, I guess.
Scrolling through what seem like a millions of songs, I
can clearly pinpoint each and every stage of my life throughout the past
years. There were those when I was on
top of the world with happiness, others when I was trying to find myself and
some where life had become too much, too soon.
Like a scrapbook (but I don’t
have one), my hard drive is infused with memories, dates, and emotions.
I have many categories of playlist like Hurt Playlist,
Cooking Playlist, Jogging Playlist, Up Playlist, Down Playlist, Damn Good
Lyrics Playlist, Touching Inspirational Playlist, Move on Playlist, Extraordinary Roller-coaster Inspirational Love Playlist and even Break up Playlist.
I think I like to share with you my Extraordinary Roller-coaster
Inspirational Love Playlist for the ladies/ guys that so in the cloud – smiling, giggling and chuckling or crying and yelping
for some extraordinary roller-coaster inspirational love moments. Words and lyrics are the beauty in the song
of life. What’s your song?
