there's a certain je ne sais quoi in every verse of this song
the song itself is just effortlessly beautiful, soulful & makes me emotional in a way that it hurts me.. but also makes me feel warm
i have a few interpretations of the lyrics, yet i still have no clue how should i really feel about it... or perhaps some things are just not meant to be figured out
this song always helps me go through the night
i love listening to music. i think music has a great power to change people or situation. it bonds us together, it alters emotion, it delivers feelings, it builds a certain vibe. i think music isn't just simply affects our brain, it affects our lives too. there's gotta be a particular song that makes us feel a certain way. and this one, never fails to make me feel so alive. since 2010.
who would ever thought a song about sex could be so deeply, emotionally attaching?

selalu ada satu specific genre yang mendominasi playlist gue tiap tahunnya. it's just my thing and happened unintentionally
2016 was full of chill out, rnb music. fkj, hounded, chelsea cutler, ta-ku, hermitude, mura masa, medasin, etc
2017 is.... indie rock! lately i've been into indie rock and oldies rock so much. i LOVEEEE day wave geez how could an entire album be so perfect. my favorite song is promise, wasting time, and home. selain day wave, gue suka banget sama fazerdaze, plastic plastic, vancouver sleep clinic, dan simcoe. also i've been into the beach boys, the monkees and rolling stones too! listening to em songs made me thinking WHY DIDN'T I LIVE IN 60s IN AMERICAAA. why am i stuck here instead.
ok this is such a random post to write in 6 am. but i miss blogging so much, i wanted to write something, bodo amat apapun itu pokonya pengen nulis aja di blog, that's why this random post exist. however, postan lo yang mana juga yang kaga random cha. hm bye.
it's just a quick write sebelum gue ke library buat ngerjain tugas, paper, dan belajar ilneg (why uts harus 9 bab why???) dan pih dan agama and others which i actually don't give a fudge.
BYE
Have you ever discover a song that it's so beautiful, it's so you, that it speaks some kind of words and things you have no idea how to say? Cause i just have found one.
I wanna get you in my spaces I wanna take you different places I know the touring is romantic I know you see me as a frantic girl But I can give you what you want I know you like the way I held my temper When I gave you to the world, gave you to the world I can be your heart to let go 'Cause I've been scared of crowded places Come with me, I'll take you home 'Cause I've been scared of crowded places Come with me, I'll take you home
Sometimes you find yourself trying to let go of something
But it's like, you have been swimming on the ocean for a very very long time
And you feel like you belong there
You are one with the waves
The warmth of the water
And your body moves in sync with the ocean
And you swim around just trying to stay afloat
Then you get tired and you start to drown
And you swim back to land
When you get there you just feel so heavy because you lost touch with gravity for so long
And you collapse on the beach as you try to find balance again
And then your feet finds gravity
You stand up and you look at the horizon one last time
And you just know that no matter how beautiful the sea was
And how good it made you feel
It was never yours to keep
And somedays you'll miss it, you know
And you feel yourself moving with the waves and you dream of diving in
Then you realize your feet was meant for land
And not cut out for the ocean
Maybe you're meant to climb trees, or hike hills, or just run really fast
Letting go is not easy
There's nothing quite like swimming in the ocean
Just like how it's natural for your feet to find gravity
It's natural for you to let go
And find your true purpose in life again
The sea is the sea
And you are just you
I have to let go
But sometimes I find myself waking up at the beach again

Yuna; i've been recently listening to her songs lately. But this one--, this one is my favorite. Either the poem and the song were authentically just so brilliant or it's just me feeling so relate to them. It's Yuna's thing to read poem before she starts singing. I love her songs, her poems and her deep thoughts. What's not to love?

this. is. fucking. beautiful.
Mendengarkan sekaligus menikmati visualisasi video musiknya Jack Garatt yang satu ini bikin saya reminiscing sama jaman-jaman SMP dulu, waktu saya ikut lomba story telling provinsi. All my life people convinced me that i'm not photogenic dan selalu nggak kobe. Saya nggak ngenyangkal, sih, emang bener i always look awkward on photos and on real life. Entah itu dari sekedar gesture atau facial expression. Maybe that's what made me unchoosing theatre as my extraculicular, padahal dulu hampiiirrr banget masuk! Hahaha. Never ever i realized that i was accepted to compete storytelling, apalagi awalnya hanya karena dapet tugas storytelling tampil di depan kelas aja. I made it to top ten in province, actually.
It certainly was one of the best moment ever in my life. Facing my biggest fear, doing things i used to hate, succeed things i was afraid of, doing things what people told me i'm fucking not good at it. It was liberating. It was good. It was beautiful. It was great. Not only i did surprise everyone else, i surprised myself to experience one of the most beautiful thing in life; losing my fear.
So, what's your 'surpising yourself' moment?
...
and we run,
and we run,
and we run
until we break through
You looked at me with certainty
I couldn't look away
Took your jacket off like
Like you were here to stay
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
And your plastic love
There goes my mind
Let it go
You’re that lace trimmed danger
One day you’ll be the face of a stranger
I couldn't look away
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
You’re mine
You’re sinking’ in my soul
Chasin’ your pretty thoughts
In intervals you’re sinkin’ in
You’re sinkin’ in my soul
Thought to myself:
“Don’t, don’t you lose control”
Started to undress you, with my wandering eyes
Told myself you’d be gone by sunrise
‘cause you’re that lace trimmed danger
One day you’ll be the face of a stranger
SHIT. IT'S JUST. TOO. GOOD.
much luvvvvvvvvv!!!
