I Won't Give Up

I Won't Give Up
Song and Lyrics by Jason Mraz


Hmmmm ... Hmmmm ... Hmmmm ... Hmmm ...

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

NAIF- Karena Kamu Cuma Satu

Diperdengarkan pertama kali sama Rahma di studio Audiovisual, I'm instantly falling in love to its music and lyric. And here's its official music video!

....

denganmu semua airmata

menjadi tawa suka ria

akankah kau selalu ada

menemani dalam suka duka

denganmu aku bahagia,

denganmu semua ceria.

janganlah kau berpaling dariku,

karena kamu cuma satu,

untukku..

C.N. Blue

C.N.Blue. Code Name Blue

Gara-gara Umroh Rani kasih nonton Heartstring, saya jadi sukaaa sama lagu-lagu Korea. Hampir semua soundtrack Heartstring saya download. Bukan cuma itu, Jung Yong Hwa, yang jadi aktor utama serial drama itu, ternyata lead vocal sekaligus rhytm guitar dan main rapper dari band C.N.Blue. Nah, dari situ saya googling lagu-lagu CNBlue dan berhasil jatuh cinta sama mereka.

Pertama dengar dan lihat videoclip "Lovegirl" di Youtube. Trus liat lagi MV nya "Intuition". Berhasil download lagu hits mereka "I'm a Loner" dan "Lovelight" yang ternyata mirip-mirip akustikan I'm Yours nya Jason Mraz. :)

R.I.P. Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse

One of my favorite singer with her unique style and voice. Unfortunately, she died on really young age, 27 years old.
"Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us..."

Fall For This Song- Somewhere Only We Know

Oh simple thing where have you gone?

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin


And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything

So why don't we go

Somewhere only we know?

Rectoverso

Okay..
Alhamdulillah, 2 hari yang lalu sudah menyelesaikan Rectoverso dalam satu kali duduk! Ha!
Rectoverso karya Dewi Lestari ini merupakan gabungan antara kisah dan lagu. Buku ini menyajikan 11 cerita fiksi dan 11 lagu yang dirangkum dalam sepaket buku dan CD lagu. Saya membacanya sambil mendengar lagu-lagunya dan they are all amazing.
Saya jatuh cinta pada kisah-kisahnya, lagunya, lirik dan ilustrasi musiknya.

Rectoverso sendiri merupakan pengistilahan untuk dua citra yang seolah terpisah tapi sesungguhnya satu kesatuan. Saling melengkapi.

Recommended!
Dengarkan kisahnya. Baca musiknya. Selami ilustrasinya.


Love,
Sunshine

Idola Baru

Ini dia idola baru saya:

BRUNO MARS

Nama Aslinya, Peter Gene Hernandez. Lahir di Waikiki dekat Honolulu, Hawaii, pada 8 Oktober 1985. Karir bermusiknya diawali saat tampil solo di lagu "Nothin' on You" bersama B.o.B, dan "Billionaire" nya Travie McCoy. Kemudian dia merilis hit singles "Just the Way You Are" dan "Grenade". Kemudian di Oktober 2010,dia pun merilis album pertamanya; Doo-Wops & Hooligans. Dia dinominasikan 7 Grammys di Grammy Awards ke-53.

cover album Doo-Wops & Hooligans

Lagu yang paling saya suka di album ini berjudul "Marry Me" dan "Talking to the Moon". Walaupun "Lazy Song" nya jadi lagu wajib di setiap hari-hari santai. "Just the Way You Are" dan "Grenade" nya? Jangan mi lagi dipertanyakan lah. Bruno Mars menjadi penyanyi yang lagu-lagunya paling sering saya dengar beberapa bulan belakangan ini.

Trivia:
Bruno Mars itu nama pemberian dari ayahnya. Ayahnya mengadaptasi nama Bruno Sammartino- seorang pegulat yang gendut-chubby- karena saat dia masih kecil, pipinya juga chubby. Sedangkan Mars, diadopsi dari ayahnya karena "I felt like I didn’t have no pizzazz, and a lot of girls say I’m out of this world, so I was like I guess I’m from Mars."

Sunshine

Smile- Charlie Chaplin Cover

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by
If you Smile through your pain and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
For you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time (thats the time) you must keep on trying
Smile- What's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile.

Mine Lyrics Taylor Swift

This is the first single of her upcoming 3rd album, "Speak Now".

LISTEN HERE

Taylor Swift “Mine” Lyrics

Oh oh ooo o

Oh oh ooo o

You were in college working part time waiting tables

Left to small time never looked back.

I was the flight risk with the fear of fallin

Wondered why we bothered with love if it never lasts

I say ‘Can you believe it?”

As we’re lying on a couch

(?) And I can see it

Yes yes I can see it now

Do you remember we were sitting there about the water

You put your arm around me for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Flash forward and we’d been taking on the world together

And there is a drawer of my things and your place

You learned my secrets and you figured out why I’m (?)

You said we’d never made my parents’ mistakes.

But we’ve got bills to pay

We’ve got nothing figured out

When it was hard to take yes yes

This is was I thought about

Do you remember we were sitting there about the water

You put your arm around me for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Do you remember all the city lights on the water

You saw me start to believe for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Woah oh oo

soundtrack of my hospitalized day 3

Saya tak akan menyangka akan sebosan apa jadinya saya jika teknologi internet wifi ini tidak available di Rumah Sakit ini. Di kamar saya. It's day 3 for today. Mau ma pulang rasanya. Cabut selang infus lalu lari pulang ke rumah.

Well, this is the soundtack of this day. Lagu lama sih. Cuma tetap asik didengar sekarang. Sudah cukup lama juga cari lagu dan liriknya baru dapat sekarang.

GEMINTANG

Andien

Gemintang
Awali indahnya cerita
Melantunkan rasa
Nyanyikan
Denting nada dan senyuman
Menghadirkan cinta

Resahku menepi indahku bersemi
Mengingat utuh bayangmu

Hatiku mengucap kata merindukanmu
Laksana nyata manis nuansa
Dan jika gemintang tiada lagi melagu
Kisahku yang mencinta dirimu
Kan slalu abadi

Rembulan
Temani indah malam ini
Menyatukan asa
Lukiskan
Dekap hangat yang kau beri
Mengartikan kita

Gemintang nyanyikan
Rembulan lukiskan



SIMPLY
Dewi Lestari


I stand here with a thousand words and tons of hopes
But blankness is the place they ended up the most
I'm lost in the frequency of the oddities
It feels so hard to breathe
I'm like a hapless piece of symphony that no one really cares to hear

You simply inspire me
Collide into me
But no one's there
So why don't you hold me
Why don't you move me
So I know you care
I wonder how far to go
To simply have you and simply keep you

And now, when everything has been said and done
In silence I can only wish I am the one
I'm floating like a bubble that will pop and be gone
Just trying to make you see
The simplicity of lock and key
And how you're never ever there to free me

books, music and movies

I begin this day when I wake up at 9 am. Inspired by Julie Powell who write her cooking blog on Nora Ephron's movie, Julie&Julia. Well, suddenly I want updating my blog too. But you know, I will not write about recipes or how to cook poultry or something like that, I just want to write what's in my head now:

Three things will make my life feels really live; Books, music and movies. Without them, I utterly dead. I mean, I need them soo much to runaway from my "real" life. For me, books, music and movies is a good escape from all the things happened in my life. Imagine, six days with work, study and house stuffs, without any compromise, push and force me do what I have to do. And the next day, Sunday will receiving me with wide open arms, like saying, "Baby, this is all your day! Do what you want to do, go reading a book, or listening Jason Mraz, or having a movie or two! Wake up and enjoy your day!"

That was exactly what I really love when weekend comes.

So, I will completely wake up. Take a bath, spending two three hours just for shower and wash my hair. And then I will take my "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter", Carson Mc Culler's book, reading until I fall asleep. When I wake up in the afternoon, I'll turn on the radio, playing my lovely singing, Jason Mraz and sing along with a max volume. And then, after having it, I will really satisfied if I've watched like example, Spike Jonze's "Where The Wild Things Are?"...

I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground.
And I'm hearin' what you say,
But I just can't make a sound.
You tell me that you need me,
Then you go and cut me down...
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry,
Didn't think I'd turn around...
And say...

That it's too late to apologize.
It's too late...
I said it's too late

Take a fall, take a shot for you.

David Cook wins American Idol (7th Season)

Akhirnya pertarungan antar David berakhir juga. Rabu kemarin malam merupakan malam final American Idol, dengan 97.5 juta suara yang masuk. Dari suara sebanyak itu, Cook mendapat 56 persen dan Archuleta mendapat 44 persen suara.

"This is amazing. Thank you," Cook said.

Saya sebenarnya lebih prefer ke Archuleta. Namun setelah diumumkan bahwa Cook yang menang saya rasa, "It's okay". Secara kita bisa menikmati suara khas masing-masing David. Siapapun yang menang, it doesn't matter anymore. Well, semoga saja David Cook bisa lebih berjaya lagi dibandingkan jawara Idol sebelum-sebelumnya. Bravo Cook!
