One of Best young guitar player in Taiwan, 陳彥宏. He've got the first prize of several "All college guitar contest". The most famous original of him is this one, Flame of fire. His music is really hard to describe, just listen to it, and tell me how you think about it.
YES!! The musics this time really rock my heart! I got those musics from my junior's FTP. You can directly download those in here. And I hope anyone of you guys can help me to recognize some of them. Now from my music player, I can only recognize and find out four of them. The rest are all yours!! Enjoy it!! OH~also I put pictures I take on my flickr, the direct link is here.
These two songs are really popular in Ballroom dancing club. As you can hear, this is a slow song with 4 steps, a typical Rumba music. Rumba is dance of love, so you can use any romantic songs for it. Mariah Carey and Enrique both sing a song called Hero. I like Enrique more. His sings without much skill, but he really have a manlish and sexy voice.
Listen to these songs and imagine you with the one you love. Dancing slowly with full of love....
Actually, I do have use Enrique's Hero to dance one time...But it already be three years ago, my skill is not so good that time. It's a performance after I learned for 1 year. Just to see the feeling of dancing in Rumba~
It's always a good topic while writing blogs. After we got a lot of data, how can we quickly search it out? Of course google do that for you...But with tags, we can gain more information without thinking of key words. It's like a menu for reader (or us) to choose the channel (which writer), the style ( Rock or Pop) or even the anouncement ( "Black Board" tag in this article). Just like in the restaurant, you want to see a clear menu. So what we need to do might be keeping tags to be less. Only left those in the key role, or in the same level of channel, style... How to do that? For channel I'm sure that it's only five of us. For style? Any one can give out some fair classification? Sometimes it's hard... Maybe we can think by standing on the reader side first.
Tag could be a useful thing, and need everyone got a common sense about it. Here are some Questions to be considered:
What kind of classification would you like to see? Like ShoutCast, seperate by 70's? 80's? or Rock? Pop?....
Before, I classify the area people live, but it's quite a redundancy. Since G-sus already represent the one in Peru, and I'm the one in Taiwan. So maybe it's better to classify into Language? English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Taiwanese...and so on.
Maybe we should make a list of every kind of classification. Could anyone list about the style of music first? for us to discuss.
Do we need more kinds of Classification?
Later on, if you see a beatiful Tag Cloud like the first picture, you'll feel it's really worth to do it!
Since I just get familiar with this song, unchained melody. I would like to introduce some version of it. It's a really well-know one, and the voice from the original singer is really like an unchained melody. Spreading all along the lyrics, and gives out a manlish style with LOVE. Also recently it's one of my vocal project! With this one, I can practice more about connection between words, and the feeling of melody. While my friend play guitar for me to sing, he also tell me on that age, Pretty woman is also the most famous one. So I gather this two for you guys and try to remember the flavor of those years! Unchained melody by Righteous Brothers & Pretty Woman by Edarem.
Unchained MelodIES:
Elvis Presles @ Last Concert ->With piano, even Elvis can be so romantic! (Actually it's my first time to see him) Gary Gates @ The Dome, Germany ->Why Righteous is manlish? After listen to Gareth Gates you'll know....But he really got a good sound without any doubt.
Which melody you like most? Mine is Righteous Brothers, and you?
Forecast: Later on, I'll give you some songs that we used to dance!! Which is also in WFw series!! Are you expecting that also? lol~
Don't forget the Old songs! - Picture from lacmusic
This week, maybe we can try this kind of topic. What if you're in the ShoutCast.com, and helding a channel called the Olds? I think a lot of songs that we are familiar with, like unchained melody, I don't even know its name until last month! But for those people who always forget about names of song, maybe we can help them to recover the link to their favorites. Ok...I might say that I'm also one of "them". So let us try to get a series for this week! Those We are Familiar With Series!
What should be in this series?? like 70s, 80s? NO! There's no any limits about songs to chosen. Just find out some songs you heard a lot, and it's quite Famous and last for at least several years. Dig out those songs that you want to introduce to us! The one who write first get the most popular one! Let's GO!
OK... this is the theme song of a movie that I like, and I have recently watch it again(last midnight). All of it is just instrumental, but I feel like "someone is watching me" everytime I heard it. You might think that is a creepy song... maybe you are right.. anyway it got a good beat.
It's the song we sang yesterday, which I noticed that Jesus made some beats with. Amei, I think most of foreigners already know her well. (I've seen a poster that she even held a concert at north California.) But what about Jam? He became famous from Taiwan TV show "Super Star Avenue I". His outstanding performance overwhelmed all audience. Never had a man sing like him. I also like his songs a lot.
Guang Liang is one of the first chinese singers I heard of. I really didn't know he was also quite famous in Taiwan. "Tóng Huà" (aka Fairy Tale) is by far the most popular, even in Peru I heard about it. Even I know part of the lyrics~
This is a heavy music band from Brazil, even though, the sing in english.. Like many other bands, the first members were students. They began to get popularity as the years got going. But their big success was stablished in Japan rather than in thier home country. They became known in brazilian music charts about 7years later! I had been captivated with the studio album titles: -Angel cry -Holy land -Fireworls -Rebirth -Temple of shadows -Aurora consurgens
And the song that I like the most of this group (at the moment) is called Carry On.
Simple minded brain, for now you succumb Nothing changes your way This worlds insists to be the same based on our mistakes The flowers fade along the road Don't blindfold your eyes, so loneliness becomes the law of a senseless life
Follow your steps and you will find The unknown ways are on your mind Need nothing else than just your pride to get there... Go!
Now we have to face another day You won't be alone This life is forcing us to stay - For how long? Cold is the wind and thunder struck on a stormy night But can't you see, I'm by your side We are marching on!
Follow your steps and you will find The unknown ways are on your mind Need nothing else than just your pride to get there...
So, carry on, There's a meaning to life Which someday we may find... Carry on, it's time to forget The remains from the past, to carry on
Follow your steps and you will find The unknown ways are on your mind Need nothing else than just your pride to get there...
So, carry on, There's a meaning to life Which someday we may find... Carry on, it's time to forget The remains from the past
So, carry on, There's a meaning to life Which someday we may find... Carry on, it's time to forget The remains from the past
Carry on, it's time to forget The remains from the past, to carry on The remains from the past, to carry on The remains from the past... ----------------------------------
yeah, I like this song~ but the beating is like a cardiac arrest. haha
There is a J-pop group called 403 which I consider very talented. If your not familiar with web errors "403" will mean: forbidden. This group was stablished in highschool for a english contest, and since then all their songs are in english. They also got a funny way to speak english. Nevertheless, the music is enjoyable and I think the lyric is meaningful. I like the song titled "Southern Cross". If you cannot understand what they sing ('cause its 'engrish' haha) I'm adding the lyrics.
Southern Cross ----------------- You are standing here as true as you were born on this earth. Don't pin all your hopes and your dreams on somebody else's lives.
The Southern cross is twinkling and watching us. Far beyond, so far away from us. The Southern Cross is a holy light. We are the crusaders of the Southern Cross.
Go, if you come up against a hurdle. Fight, fight for the things you believe in. Passion, Joy, Sorrow, pain and tears. All they will be pabulum of your life. Go, if you come under the wet yourself. Fight, fight for the person you believe in. Destiny is calling you... “Obey me, or defy me”
[PianoSolo : 403]
The Southern cross is twinkling and watching us. Far beyond, so far away from us. The Southern Cross is a holy light. We are the crusaders of the Southern Cross.
Go, if you come up against a hurdle. Fight, fight for the things you believe in. Passion, Joy, Sorrow, pain and tears. All they will be pabulum of your life. Go, if you come under the wet yourself. Fight, fight for the person you believe in. Destiny is calling you... “Obey me, or defy me”
[PianoSolo & GuitarSolo : 403]
Is there a thing which is superior to love in this world? A man is living with loving someone and then being loved by others. We are standing here as true as we were born on this earth. The moment of yesterday when we lived is never waste.
Go, if you come up against a hurdle. Fight, fight for the things you believe in. Passion, Joy, Sorrow, pain and tears. All they will be pabulum of your life. Go, if you come under the wet yourself. Fight, fight for the person you believe in. Destiny is calling you... “Obey me, or defy me”
“......”
This little time that you live here may be treasure when you are old. Go, if you come away from your way. Find, find your own way that you believe in. Destiny is challenging you... “Obey me, or defy me”
We cannot turn back to our past. We cannot change our past. However, we're heading for the future. So, let us reach out our hands.....our hands! ========== ~~~~~~~~~~
I almost have forgotten some parts of the lyrics. It makes me feel like: OMG, It is really good! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Once, I saw a music blog which writes a lot about Japan music, called "J-Pop Now". I heard about this song. Later on, it makes me feel happy every time!! The music video shows a humor of Japanese movement, and also their good sound. Even Japanese can't speak English well, they still think it's cool to sing it. It's quite funny~ Just use this music video to cheer you up! 1,2,3 for 5~~!!
I don't know if you already know about this group but they are amazing! They sure know how to play the guitar and the battery These are two of the songs that I like from this group: The lyrics seem so epic... you can imagine whatever you want! Even in a war, or in a clear landspace or just the city (that would be so wrong...) hehe I hope you enjoy it.
Fury of the Storm ---------------- We are riding for the battlefield in force tonight Fury of the darkest evil cry for war Far beyond the boundaries of hell and starlight On the road to lands unknown forever more
Through the caverns far below our quest will lead us Onwards through the ice and snow forever more Standing fighting full of hate the time has come now Stand and sound the guns of glory cry for war
On wings of glory we will carry on Far across forgotten lands towards the distant sun And in the darkness shining far beyond the starlight Lightning is striking from the dark dawning shadows And in the kingdom of the everlasting sun When the glory of the master's time has come!
Into the fires of forever we will fly through the heavens With the power of the universe we stand strong together Through the force in our power, we will soon reach the hour For victory we ride, Fury of the Storm!
Here we are the chosen ones we can not fail now Spilling all the blood on the fires below Smashing through the boundaries with the fire and fury Killing all the mortals down the winding road
Hellfires are raging the storm growing strong On the path to victory towards the distant sun And in the darkness shining far beyond the starlight Lightning is striking from the dark dawning shadows And in the kingdom of the everlasting sun When the glory of the master's time has come!
Into the fires of forever we will fly through the heavens With the power of the universe we stand strong together Through the force in our power, we will soon reach the hour For victory we ride, Fury of the Storm!
[167.3756 second Instrumental]!!!!
Into the fires of forever we will fly through the heavens With the power of the universe we stand strong together Into the fires of forever we will fly through the heavens With the power of the universe we stand strong together Through the force in our power, we will soon reach the hour For victory we ride, Fury of the Storm! For victory we ride, Fury of the Storm!
My Spirit will go on ------------------- Life is a misery, don't know how it's come to be Death, the epitome of all of our days In the past we had no choice to hear or to be the voice Close your eyes and visualize the demon to arise
You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be And now that misery has taken a new stand In the land of a thousand souls we will carry on through the rain In the sun we will move along with the memories of the slain When I see this humanity and the evil that they have come to be We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just...
One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understands My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity
Foreign the currency, your payment in blood to be Death is the destiny for all of our ways In the dark you hide away for who or what you can't say When I see the power of the demon come alive
You know that sanity is not as it was meant to be And now that misery has taken a new stand On the wings of eagles flying staring on to the sun Reaching for the gold horizon when the war shall be won Can you see the debauchery and the blade of death that has come for thee In winds of torment forever more you will cry for just...
One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understands My soul and my spirit will go on, for all of eternity
In the land of a thousand souls we will carry on through the rain In the sun we will move along with the memories of the slain When I see this humanity and the evil that they have come to be We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just...
One more time to escape from all this madness One more time to be set free from all this sadness And one last time to be the one who understands My soul and my spirit will go on, my soul and spirit will go on, for all of eternity
In KTV, everyone know that it's a taboo to order this song. On the other hand, everyone know this song. It's from a band called "Shin", the vocal is as the name called AShin.(like Amei) As G-sus might emphasize on beats, I focus on the voice of vocal more. It's might be a reason that I didn't learn any instrument well before. Even I always admire people who can play instruments well and make others be touched instantly, I still not yet learn one. After some experience of KTV, I always feel touched while listen to good singer. Later on, I just think of human voice as an instrument, too. So whether a voice could make you have the so-called "Chicken skin" or "Electrical Shock on neck" is the way I judge music. As you might noticed, some popular singer always sing songs without meaning, just repeat some good sentences and a simple melody. It's so-called "Grava Singer" in Taiwan. A lot of people hate and refuse to listen to this kind of commercial singer. But for me is different, I feel eased while listen to simple music with a good sound. If the sound is good, and matched with rythm, I'll say it good. But this song is different, Shin version is really made me feel coooool!! It was remade from korea, and now here is an English version coming soon. After listening to it, just tell me how you feel about it!!
This man was once rejected by music company, but a good sound would never disappear. After a long time, even when the singer is started to work in office, a manager go to find him and finally make his first album. He was called "No Name" for the first time. It's quite cool that he only published an album without any ad, then he already became so famous. This song is in his second album (after more struggle between singing and job in office), called "Sunshine on white bedcover".
Recently Taiwan is promoting a slower life style, and call it "Happy Living". Matching the feeling of slower down our rush life, music in this album, Love Slower, is easing our pressure of frequent situation. This song is not just telling you to be lazy on bed, but about time with the girl you love deeply. With her on bed, we talk about dreams, past. While love her deeply, you won't need to hide anything while you wake up in the morning. Then, you'll enjoy the sunshine, her scent. Now, just let us listen to his pure sound.
Track: Sunshine on white bedcover Album: Love Slower Published on: 2006.03.24
Music, yeah, its kind of (...) sometimes, but you know its part of our nature to be (...) sometimes. You can take this example to get an idea: Our body is a unique machine that works mind and body at the same time with some criteria. Some ills in our bodies can be quickly overcome if we have already little amounts of that ill before. That's why as childs we take vaccines with some weakened virus in order to avoid any similar virus in the future. Bodies can process that virus "information" in order to find an own treatment and cure. Our mind should work the same way but with our subconscious. That might be called "acquiered experience". A sequence of predetermined thoughts and feelings can help us deal with some situations in the future.
So.. why I'm writing that? ... I almost forget... oh, yeah Music. It could give little amounts of the feelings of many people (weakened feelings maybe), so even if we never thought about it, we could have a more conscious response based in the "subconscious' response" from the past. Music is a special situation, it would give a collective response. Maybe that's why we keep using it to express our feelings. Maybe that's why we think in (...) everytime.
These are my favorite songs at the moment (one for each language),
This blog uses MixPod.com player, all the musics are from database of them. Search the music and make a player by one song(you can add more for sure, but for one article, just add as much as you're going to introduce). Songs will always play automatically. So I adopted a ".....Continued" Button to hide the later part of article, for not playing all the music while others see the home page. Be sure to put music player after your introduction, the "Continued" function will deal with it automatically.
For viewing our blog easily, function of TAG is really important. While creating a article, there's a form on the bottom side of the editor. You can choose existing tag, and also add a new tag. We should make tags as simple as possible, maybe we can just divide into three big classification.
From which area: like American or French or Chinese or Peru etc...
Type of Music: like Funk, Rock, Popular, etc...
Channels (Editor): Since we got different type of music to share, we are like channels of broadcast, just the music could be repeated again and again. So this tag could be like Troy, Jerome, Jordan, Hihic, Jesus, etc.....
What else??
After this, you can click a botton on the sidebar, "Choose tag", and you'll find out a tag cloud. Hopes that the cloud could be useful and beautiful!
So now we are already have a platform of sharing all the music that we want to share! Hope we can know each others more by Plan "M"! Oh, btw, M is only stand for Music. I just want to make it cool, lol~
前幾天突然想要看看Aerosmith的長相，Youtube就很自動的跳出I don't want to miss a thing 的mv，而看完之後對主唱簡直就是萬分崇拜，很自然的繼續看其他的MV，聽到了這首Pink，我又被電到了！雖然主唱這時候看起來娘娘的，但是歌聲卻超級讚，那是甚麼外星人滑音阿！！整個很誇張卻很好聽！廢話不多說！就讓我們來聽聽看吧～
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing Watch you smile while you are sleeping While youre far away dreaming I could spend my life in this sweet surrender I could stay lost in this moment forever Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Dont want to close my eyes I dont want to fall asleep Cause Id miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing Cause even when I dream of you The sweetest dream will never do Id still miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating And Im wondering what youre dreaming Wondering if its me youre seeing Then I kiss your eyes And thank God were together I just want to stay with you in this moment forever Forever and ever
Dont want to close my eyes I dont want to fall asleep Cause Id miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing Cause even when I dream of you The sweetest dream will never do Id still miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing
I dont want to miss one smile I dont want to miss one kiss I just want to be with you Right here with you, just like this I just want to hold you close Feel your heart so close to mine And just stay here in this moment For all the rest of time
Dont want to close my eyes I dont want to fall asleep Cause Id miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing Cause even when I dream of you The sweetest dream will never do I'd still miss you baby And I dont want to miss a thing
Dont want to close my eyes I dont want to fall asleep I dont want to miss a thing
