Spirit Riser: OneRepublic, The Script New Tracks

Did I just hear new songs?
Well, heck yes. Finally and thank God, these two bands have finally released their newest single for their latest album. The Script's album will be entitled as #3. It'll be out in Ireland on September 7 and September 10 in UK. This August 21st, the music video is ready on youtube to be the next most viewed and this is proofed that it's only been ten days, the video has been watched by over 1,000,000 viewers. How awesome is that?


There will be two emotional tracks that came from the band members' own experience. "Six Degrees of Separation" is inspired by Danny O'Donoghue's traumatic split up with his former girlfriend and "If You Could See Me Now" is an emotional tribute for Mark Sheehan's parents who died within months of each other when he was just twelve years old. Bad memories not only have bad effect but they bring out inspiration as well. I hope the album will be a hit.

OneRepublic die hard fans, let me hear your scream for their upcoming album !!!
I'm just too excited about writing it even tho I'm still in the dark when it comes to the album's title. In OneRepublic's wiki page is written that the upcoming third studio album will be entitled as Life In Color but that won't matter if they have finally released an awesome music video for the track? On August 28 2012, One Republic released a music video for their new track titled "Feel Again". It's a good song for the lonely soul who is still wandering out there. Listen to it. It will make your numb heart feels love again because they put so many colorful lights in the video. Very colorful that I was blinded by awe and happiness.And one more thing that is good about this song is they will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sales of the single to Save the Children's Every Beat Matters campaign to support training frontline health workers around the world OneRepublic always produces amazing quality songs and that's why I've been keep an eye for another update about the album.Good job, Ryan.






Feel Again

Okay, August 31st 2012 is one of the the wonderful days. I've got friends, I've got sore from the PE and yeah I've got the feeling that I thought I wouldn't feel anymore. Finally yeah the flower has bloomed in my garden.
Only took one month and yeah I've risen up and I will try my best this time. Just send me your prayers <3


It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
And I've never went back trying to replace everything that I've had till my feet went numb
Praying like a fool that's been on a run
Heart still beating but it's not working
It's like a million dollar phone that you just can't ring
I reach out trying to love but I feel nothing
Yeah, my heart is numb
But with you
I feel again
Yeah with you
I can feel again

Yeah

I'm feeling better since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me

It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
And I've never went back trying to replace everything that I broke till my feet went numb
Praying like a fool that just shot a gun
Heart still beating but it's not working
It's like a hundred thousand voices that just can't sing
I reach out trying to love but I feel nothing
Oh my heart is numb

But with you
I feel again
And with you
I can feel again

But with you
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
I feel again
(I was a lonely soul but that's the old me)
Yeah with you
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
I can feel again
(I was a lonely soul)

Woo-hooo

(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)

I'm feeling better since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me
A little wiser now but you show me
Yeah, I feel again
Feel again...

One Republic, Feel Again

Birdy - Just A Game


I don't know where I am
I don't know this place
Don’t recognize anybody
Just the same old empty face
See these people they lie, and I don’t know
Who to believe anymore
But there comes you to keep me safe from harm
There comes you to take me in your arms
Is it just a game? I don’t know
Is it just a game? I don’t know
Pleading eyes that break my heart
So homesick, I can't feel
But I know I must play my part
And tears I must conceal
There comes you to keep me safe from harm
There comes you to take me in your arms
Is it just a game? I don’t know
To keep you safe from my bow
Take my hand and my heart races
The flames illuminate our faces
And we’re on fire
Blow a kiss to the crowd
They’re our only hope now
And now I know my place
And now I know my place
We’re all just pieces in their games

Just A Game


This the second post I write about Suzanne Collins' master piece. I've bragged about her awesome trilogy. Yeah, as you can see that I'm already obsessed about the trilogy and less than a week or maybe about 36 hours I've finished reading the second book. Is that something that I must be proud or ashamed of? If it weren't because I was afraid of an end, I could have finished the book less that 24 hours.

Well, yeah, enough with the book. Now, I'm here to talk about one of the song in the soundtrack. On march, they released an album named "The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond" . I like the idea mentioning District 12 on the title. Very Hunger Games-ish ? They put 16 songs and 1 bonus track in total.and it has been certified with Gold by the RIAA. Taylor swift with her ​​magical voice, singing more than one song, the album had reached number one on the US billboard and sold 175,000 copies on its first week.

I know Taylor sang two songs titled : "Safe and Sound" with The Civil Wars and another song titled "Eyes Open". Good songs but I have my own version of highlight. There is Birdy, British musician who is well known by her cover of Bon Iver's Skinny Love. Her song in this album titled "Just A Game". The piano, the voice are amazing.The Lyric is so representative about what happen between Katniss and Peeta in The Hunger Games. Birdy's song which is very touching, has the magic to tell the story about Katniss Everdeen who was very confuse and felt lost and then she put emphasis to the part which I think is about Peeta Mellark comes and offers Katniss the feeling of safety in the middle of the game and that making Katniss more confuse and wondering to her self and maybe questioning "Is it just a game?".

When I read the lyric, i think the song can be a soundtrack for the current monday couple in Korean Variety Show "Running Man". Some say the boy, Kang Gary, the pure guy, has never been lied about his feeling toward her Monday Couple Parner, Song Ji Hyo. They've been acted as a couple for one and a half year and abruptly, there was a news about Song Ji Hyo's dating her own boss and you can tell maybe Kang Gary has felt the same as Peeta Mellark in The Hunger Games. Betrayed and Fooled about the girls' reaction to their true feeling. But fortunately, Peeta and Katniss have a good ending. They end up together yet Monday Couple is still rumored to come back. I wish Kang Gary and Song Ji Hyo for the best.

Have you heard about ex-friend?



Is it me or something else is weird. I never heard anything such as ex-friend.
I thought the word 'ex' was never fit to be put before the word 'friend'. I thought we were still friend despite of the cliff and the distance that making us a little bit far from each other. I have to confess-okay, frankly-I was angry and yeah a bit jealous because of what you did. But i'm trying to get rid off of it. Do people not know that I'm trying to change here?
Okay, making a distance like what I did back then, i was trying to put the fire out of me so I wouldn't be burnt down by the fire of anger and jealousy. Dear, friend-or yeah whatever you name it if you still count me as friend-don't say something was trying to burn down our friendship. I was the one who was searching for a new atmosphere to make my self better and not hating you for what you did. Honestly, I'm trying to make my self comfortable again around you but there's just something that make me stay away. It's in my blood. I do that a lot when somebody did me wrong. If you want to be friend again, please help to make your self feel comfortable around me and the rest, I will try to make my self so.

I don't want to lose anything anymore. It's enough to lose some boys who I cared so much but losing you?
Na-ah. I don't buy that. Please understand :)

love you, L

The Trilogy

Vivian Greene said "Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning how to dance in the rain."

Therefore, I'm making my move to step forward and learning that with the blaming my self-thing is nothing but waste of time and energy. The boy has finally made a decision and unfortunately that decision is not my self. I have no rights and there is nothing a human-being can do to stop others from falling in love. I would breaking the human rights for trying.

So I've decided to stop thinking about it and drowning my self in to my old, abandoned hobby. Which is reading fictional books. I'm glad that I rented movie at the night when I was about to go on a family trip. And voila I didnt make the wrong choice to pick The Hunger Games . Suzanne Collins brings me back my 'normal' life.
And because of her pieces of art, I'm starting to have my self forgot.

Now, I've seen the movie and I'm crazy about it. I'm working on Catching Fire, the second book of The Hunger Game trilogy. I'm just feeling so great that a trilogy saves my butt for the second time and just fyi, for the first time Twilight Saga saved me from the grieving few times ago.

I hope everyone outside there is just as ready as me to take a step forward, leaving their grief of losing someone and I wish that everyone is also saved by something and can move on happily just like me.

Salute to Suzanne Collins and her trilogy !
