And I Choose You...

... to be by my side.

I recently heard this song through a link shared on my Facebook wall. Ever since that fated day, I don't really watch proposal or wedding videos of some sort. If you're my friend, you'll know why. But I got curious with this video shared by a friend on his facebook timeline.

The video is about a guy who go through different proposals for his girlfriend. And when you get to see what the guy is doing, you might want to wish that someone will do those things to you too (just like me!). What I like about the video is that the guy did those various ways to propose to his girl (just like other videos you see on YT). It was fun watching the guy doing everything that he can just to send the message across to the girl. But what I love most is that he included his and her girlfriend's family  in the proposal he made. Pure sweetness! 

This is the description of the video on YouTube:

On April 13th I proposed to my girlfriend Emily at the restaurant where we had our first date. I told her I was running late, had the restaurant opened just for her, and set up hidden cameras all around her. When she sat down at the table, there was a TV in front of her set to take her on a journey that would lead to the proposal of a lifetime. This is what happened...

The video:

I had fun watching! Did you? :D

And the song (in the last part) played in the video is what I've been listening to YouTube for days now. The lyrics touch my heart. Oh, how I wish... I'm just wishful thinking here (so much for a hopeless romantic).

Here goes the song:

It is a lyric video so there is no need for me to post the lyrics. :)

What do you think of the song? Please leave a comment if you like it!

Umagang Kay Ganda of Noisy Neighbors

I first heard of this song when I was in my first year of college. Thanks to my brother who listens to the song every morning during that time. Whenever I listen to it (until now), somehow it gives me the feeling of having 'a brand new day'. In spite of the not-so-good things that is happening to our lives, there is still hope for another good day to come.

Halika na pumikit limutin ang problema

Hihintayin ang umaga

Magpahinga, panaginip ang ikaliligaya

Darating din ang umaga

[Chorus]

Basta't tayo'y magkasama

Laging mayroong umagang kay ganda

Pagsikat ng araw

May dalang liwanag

Sa ating pangarap, ooh

Haharapin natin

Simple lang, kasama ka naman

Kung ayaw nila sa akin, ok lang

Kung di mo makuha sa tingin

Idaan mo sa taas, kung ayaw pa rin

Gumising na (gumising na)

Araw ng pag-asa'y narito na

Dumating din, haharapin natin

[repeat Chorus]

Haharapin natin

[repeat Chorus except last line]

Gonna Give All My Secrets Away

Every weekend, this reality show on Philippine TV has been trending over the country. And every time I watch the show, it dawned on me. Someone is also trending inside of my heart. This may sound OA (over acting) as someone puts it. But, who cares right?

Music. I simply love music. It ran right through my veins. So, I thought of putting another song in my blog. Well, this song reminded me much of someone from the reality television singing competition. The one that is trending in my heart (chos!). Every time it is played (replay button is overly clicked), I always see him singing this song in my mind. I just wish someday that he'll gonna sing this one.

The Question: Are you gonna give all your secrets away?

(Image from Wikipedia)

The Song:

Secrets from OneRepublic. (This video is not mine. I just got it from YouTube and chose the one with lyrics so you can sing with it while the video plays.)

This song was sang by one of those aspiring artist, John Philip Duka, who joined the Voice of the Philippines. He is a DJ (disc jockey) from a local station in Davao City. During his free time, he is doing gigs for an alternative rock band in the city.

Bamboo, please sing this song for me someday! <3

Rorouni Kenshin's The Beginning Music Track

Every anime fan must have heard and go ga-ga about Rorouni Kenshin's movie showing on SM Cinema all over the Philippines. I am a bit one of those who went an hour travel on the first day of showing but didn't had a chance to lay my eyes on Himura Kenshin (Takeru Sato). But no fret, I've seen him already (in the movie) and would probably will see him again in my dreams (hehe..).

The movie is awesome from the production, soundtrack and by choosing the best Himura Kenshin portrayal from the anime series. A double thumbs up for the movie and the people behind it! (We all hope for a part 2 of it.)

This video below is one of their soundtrack. Thanks to the uploader for inserting movie clips so it is worth the watch. Have fun and enjoy Kenshin's moves! :D

Just give me a reason 

To keep my heart beating 

Don’t worry it’s safe right here in my arms 

As the world falls apart around us 

All we can do is hold on, hold on 

Take my hand 

And bring me back 

I risk everything if it’s for you 

I whisper into the night 

Telling me it’s not my time and don’t give up 

I’ve never stood up before this time 

Demo yuzurenai mono itta kono te wo hanasanai 

So stand up, stand up (Just gotta keep on running) 

Wake up, wake up (Just tell me how I can) 

Never give up 

Kuru wa shimi hodo setsunai 

Just tell me why baby 

They might call me crazy 

For saying I’d fight until there is no more 

Fureri wo fukunda senkougankou wa kankakiteki shoudou 

Blinded, I can’t see the end 

So where do I begin? 

Say another word, I can't hear you 

The silence between us 

Nanimo nai you ni utsuteru dake 

I take this chance that I make you mine 

Tada kakusenai mono kattate yori misekakete 

So stand up, stand up (Just gotta keep on running) 

Wake up, wake up (Just tell me how I can) 

Never give up 

Kanashimi to setsunasa 

Just give me a reason 

To keep my heart beating 

Don’t worry it’s safe right here in my arms 

Kudaketenaide saite jita kono omoi wa 

So blinded I can’t see the end 

Look how far we made it 

The pain i can’t escape it 

Kono mamajya mada owarase koto wa dekinai deshou 

Nando kutabarisou demo kuchi hateyou tomo owariwanaisa 

So where do I begin? 

Nigirishimeta ushinawanu youni to 

Te wo hirogereba koboreochisou de 

Ushinau mono nado nakatta hibino dasei wo sutete kimi wo 

Just tell me why baby 

They might call me crazy 

For saying I’d fight until there is no more 

Fureri ukanda senkougankou wa kangakiteki shoudou 

Blinded, I can’t see the end 

Look how far we made it 

The pain i can’t escape it 

Kono mamajya mada owaraseru koto wa dekinai deshou 

Nando kutabarisou demo kuchi hateyou tomo owariwanaisa 

It finally begins..

Upside Down of Two Minds Crack

Who loves New Wave songs?

The band was formed on the year 1980. Yes, that's right. They are now 22 years old. Two Minds Crack is a New Wave band from Wales. They are known for their singles "The Hunger and The Greed" and "Cry Cry Cry".

The song below has been one of my personal favorites ever since I have heard this on my sister's playlist. It's an 80's song (yes I know, Lol!) and I've grown up in the 90's music. But I have appreciated much their music just like Fra Lippo Lippi, Wilson Phillips and others. 

And this song turns my whole world Upside Down...
