Everything in moderation. Search for the middle path. Look under the surface, but don't delve too deep. That is when you arrive most often at what is closest to the truth.

I'm like a Bird



Nelly Furtado. I wonder when she'll get back to a less... commercial style.

~~~I am a Dreamer...~~~ Platinum



Cardcaptor Sakura third opening - Platinum

Singer - Maaya Sakamoto
Composer (I think) - Yoko Kanno!

This guy is great. Classical guitar? Also see his cover of 'Innocent Starter' (Nana Mizuki, Opening of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha).

P.S. Notice how he changes the position of the capo??

Memory of Running

While searching for some old songs I liked, I came across this.



I knew the version I played on piano was not true to the original, but I had forgotten how different it was!

I think my arrangement actually sounds nicer. Hehee..

Volver a Comenzar - Café Tacvba

I heard this on a game called Little Big Planet. A Spanish song called Volver a Comenzar.

Lyrics - "Starting Over"

If I made a list of my errors
Of the least to the worst
That exposed all the wounds,
The failures, disaffection and lies

I will offer the aroma of amber
I will offer the cedar of my tears
With the patience of the sea I will wait for life
To heal the confidence
If I could start over
I wouldn't have time to repair

If I made a voyage to my insides
And survived the laments
I would ask for the force to say how sorry I am
If I made a voyage to my insides

If I would start over
I wouldn't have time to repair
The spilled water is
The thirst that I feel will not satiate

-----------------------------------

How many things can I keep?
How many things can I treasure?
Sweet temptation
To leave it all

How much space do I want to occupy?
(Even the memories don't fit in this place)
How many things can I take?
(The last move should be the lightest)
Sweet temptation
To leave it all
Sweet temptation
To give it all away

If I could start over
I wouldn't have time to repair
The water spilled is
The thirst that I feel will heal me
The water spilled is
The thirst that I feel will heal me



The original music video by Café Tacvba is actually a bit sad.

Original Spanish Lyrics:

Si hiciera una lista de mis errores
de los menores hasta los peores
que expusiera todas las heridas,
los fracasos, desamores y las mentiras

Ofreceré el aroma del ámbar
ofreceré el cedro y mis lágrimas
con la paciencia del mar esperaré toda una vida
a que sane la confianza
si volviera a comenzar
no tendría tiempo de reparar

si hiciera un viaje a mis adentros
y sobreviviera a los lamentos
pediría fuerzas para decir cuánto lo siento
si volviera de un viaje a mis adentros

si volviera a comenzar
no tendría tiempo de reparar
el agua derramada está
la sed que siento no saciará
 
si volviera a comenzar
no tendría tiempo de reparar
el agua derramada está
la sed que siento no saciará
-----------------------------------------
cuantas cosas mas puedo guardar?
cuantas cosas puedo atesorar?
dulce tentación
de dejarlo todo

cuantas espacio mas quiero ocupar?
(hasta los recuerdos ya no caben en este lugar)
cuantas cosas mas me puedo llevar?
(la ultima mudanza debe ser la mas ligera)
dulce tencacion
de dejarlo todo
dulce tentacion
regalarlo todo

si volviera a comenzar
no tendría tiempo de reparar
(uu uu uu uu)
el agua derramada está
(uu uu uu uu)
la sed que siento me sanará
(uu uu uu uu)
el agua derramada está
(uu uu uu uu)
la sed que siento me sanará

Sleep Cycle Crash

My sleep cycle and motivation levels have officially crashed.

A friend gave me 2 books to study. I have to study.

I need to catch up.

I am..

This is me?
