Turn

Turn - Travis

I want to see what people saw
I want to feel like I felt before
I want to see the kingdom come
I want to feel forever young
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I belong
I want to live
I will survive

And I believe that it won't be very long
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
So where's the stars?
Up in the sky
And what's the moon?
A big balloon
We'll never know unless we grow
There's so much world outside the door
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I'll be strong
I want to live
I will survive
And I believe that it won't be very long
If we turn, turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Turn, turn, turn, turn
Turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Learn to turn

I have been listening to my old cds recently. Why? Cos i got no money to buy new ones. Why? Cos im in OZ Land where everything is just more expensive. I wanna buy X&Y!! But they selling at AUD$30 here!!! MY bloody gawd.

anyway, i really enjoy listening to old cds of mine. Most of those CDs, i bought them when i was in my teens. 15, 16? 17? 18? im an adult now.
Like Smashing Pumpkins. God....that was like my FIRST band. I used to listen to 93.3 all along till i was about 14 or 15. Then when i first heard Smashing Pumpkins' ADORE cd, i was hooked. The rest is history. I started my journey of rock and punk and alternative listening to Third Eye Blind, 3Doors Down, Pearl Jam, Limp Bizkit, RHCP. Then i start to find my niche, and slowly cultivating my taste in music. The only chinese songs i listen to are Faye Wong & Wubai cos those 2 are my idolised ones when i was listening to chinese music.

After the times of heavy metal and really hard core rock songs, i mellowed down. Then there was Travis, Coldplay, John Lennon, Sarah McLachlan, Cranberries etc.

Then even now-er, im listening to The Strokes, The Thrills, The Killers....

Just suddenly thought of posting that piece of lyrics from Travis. From their older album called THE MAN WHO. I used to know what tat title of the album means.... i have since forgotten.

Someone once heard the songs that i listened to and asserted that i listen to RADIO MUSIC. BIGGEST JOKE I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

then Joss stone, Akon, Eminem, Britney Spears, Michael Buble, Backstreet Boys, Justin Timberlake, Beach Boys, Foo Fighters, Coldplay all share the same genre.

RADIO MUSIC? Well, it depends on which station you listen to isnt it? You dont hear Class 95 playing Beach Boys, do they?

I seriously have not heard of a bigger joke and met a bigger moron.

Anyway, i should stop digressing.

How i wish i can be like what they depict on the lyrics. I too, wanna live in a world where i am strong. How i wish i can learn how to turn.

If only life is so easy.
