Umbrella

29/9, a rainy day, nothing special, just having lunch with my best friend.When it talks about rain, I think of love story between two people.

2 umbrellas, 1 line, that is!

ERROR

My body has bugs, my system is not functional now.

the speed of my motion becomes slow and slow and slow.

These suck things are just eating all my motivation!

Cuz I am sick.

On the street...

Last friday, i saw this guy on the Mong Kok street.......many ppls like me, looking at him!He stood on a chair, and kept at a silent motion, in front of him is a small banner noticing that "Don't input money, he will sing if money is inputed!" , near the banner is a box for receiving money!

I hadn't input any money, but just waiting for the others to do so! When someone inputed money, he ran out from the silence and sang a short song immediately and then also immediately returned to silence. Actually, the guy didn't sing very well, but the dialogue posted on the banner motivated the ppls around to input money. He was one of the performers on the street of Mong Kok, there were many many street's performers on that day. (maybe everyday)

I am always appreciated what street's performers do. Not matter what their performances are, they are brave. I can sing(quite well) but I couldn't be them, cuz I don't have the courageous!

From the angle of audiences, they would try to observe and see what can I show and perform to them, and if they see nothing special, they will go away and forget me immediately. So performer's job is to give their all.

On that night, I had seen different performance, Dancing, singing Michael Jackson's song......., not all of them are good, attractive and memorable. But they had shown their all...

...is effort.

MIKA

I know MIKA through the youtube, after listening his new song called" We are Golden", I m interested more in this young singer. "We are Golden" is a pop song, many ppl said pop songs are so common and they dun like this type of song. But I think a good song is a good song, which isn't depend on which type of music it's from. And "We are Golden" has an energetic melody, once u listen to it, u'll naturally sing along! And the lyrics are direct and I like this part the most!

"Teenage dreams in a teenage circus

Running around like a clown on purpose

Who gives a damn about the family you come from

No giving up when you're young and you want some"

When we go for our dream or target, we are just running around, and cannot really get what we want! But if u're still young, u still have the "fire", plz dun give up and carry on to run around until u succeed in one day!

Beyond the music, the cover of his new album really attracts me, the style of the cover of all MIKA's CD is childish, like the illustrations of old children's books. But when the child-like cover matches MIKA's pop song, things become stylish!!

MV of We Are Golden

Actually, if the CD cover is the just a picture of mika.....i won't have the interest to listen to his song(i know this's not a good habit, cuz i would miss many fantastic songs!). And that's why the CD cover is also very important! As the CD cover somehow can show the personalities of that singer and what style of song he/she is singing! And ppl nowadays can easily download(legally and also illegally) music from the internet, so a good cover of the CD can somehow attract more buyers. And this time MIKA's CD cover really attract me....

P.S. I also found that a book released by MIKA called " Songs For Sorrow"...when u look at his picture, please also have a look to the lyrics of the songs, they are related!!!!!!!
