Ehmmmm…

Yang.. hujan turun lagi

Di bawah payung hitam kuberlindung

Yang.. ingatkah kau padaku

Di jalan ini dulu kita berdua

Have you ever heard these  lyrics ? ( i knew it would be funny question )

I think you’re gonna say “YES”… but did you remember what song it’s called ? who’s sing that song ? ehmmm… I’m sure you probably FORGET about that…hahaha

Honestly, I’m with you too… I remember there was women singer ever sang that song… but who was she ? I didn’t  even know. OK for simple thing I went to google and found it out, the song was “Antara Benci dan Rindu” by Obbie Mesakh, a popular singer-songwriter from 80′s . Ratih Purwasih has  covered the song, she was  women singer whom I mean it. Now, we’re not talking about “between hate and love” (sorry, I change rindu into cinta because I couldn’t find phrase for “hate and missing” in english).

I’m still listening some Love Song of  the 80′s or early 90′s though I don’t know who sing those songs. My dad  is the one who introduces them, he used to play them on Tape Recorder  when I was in middle school. He has so many casette music from 80′s, one of them is The Mercy’s . Now our tape recorder is broken so he can’t listen it again, but sometimes I look my dad is watching Old Love Song Show on Television.

anyway, there’s one old song has made me curious for long time, the song is called ” Jangan Sampai Tiga Kali“. My friend of mine always play it with his old guitar while we are hanging out together. We’re so happy when he sings this song, because he has good voice and I’m pretty sure he could be good singer one day.

here’s the lyrics :

Satu kali kau sakiti hati ini masih kumaafkan
Dua kali kau sakiti hati ini juga kumaafkan
Tapi jangan sampai tiga kali
Jangan oh janganlah
Cukuplah sudah cukuplah sudah
Jangan kau ulang lagi

Reff:
Sedari dulu sudah kukatakan siapa diri ini
Sedari dulu sudah kukatakan jangan kau sesali
Tapi mengapa kau selalu menyakitiku
Hati bertanya mungkin ada yang lain yang kau sayangi

Kalaulah memang ada yang lain
Yang kau sayangi selain diriku
Katakan sejujurnya janganlah oh jangan kau bersandiwara
Aku tak mau… Aku tak mau
Kalaulah memang begini adanya
Lebih baik berpisah dari pada nanti
Hati ini kecewa

“Wishing Well”

It cursed us all on our way home
We passed the sights like passing stones
And I will never go back there again
The tourists and the army men
The prostitutes this evening
Will start to sink under my skin
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

He is the shrieks I am the fear
That yelling man rings in my ears
Out of his mind he’s my conscience
Hour after hour pill after pill
He is my bellyache I’ve taken so much medicine to kill

I know there’s something wrong
‘Cause this night just drags on and on
The clock still says it won’t be long
‘Til all your hard earned money’s gone
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

And I will never go back there again
The tourists and the army men
The prostitutes this evening
Will start to sink under my skin
The dust and sand is what they sell
The flashing lights and ringing bells
A wish as far as I can tell
Inside this dried up wishing well

Phantom Planet _ Wishing Well by Sam Farrar

Back To High School.…Phantom Planet  band favourite saya waktu SMA. masih inget dulu bela-belain nabung uang jajan  hanya untuk beli kaset album “The Guest” yang harganya kalo gak salah sekitar  Rp 22.000. Sebenarnya saya belum mengerti apa itu album setau saya ya beli kaset yang didalamnya terdapat lagu kesukaan saya that’s it. band yang melejit dengan Single “California“… ya lagu ini yang membuat saya jadi suka ama band ini. dulu  waktu zaman MTV masih berjaya saya sering banget tuh jadi tongkrongin depan TV  cuma sekedar pengen lihat video klip California, kalo MTV muterin senengnya bukan main. hahaha… Saya suka semua lagu-lagu mereka di album “The Guest” salah satunya  Wishing Well lagu yang bertempo naik turun dengan suasana lagu yang gelap. Anyway, Sebenarnya inti saya suka dengerin lagu dari band/artis dengan genre-nya ya karena musiknya itu sendiri enak didenger atau gak, kalo enak pasti lanjut dengerin lagu-lagu lain dari artis atau band itu.

Makanya kalo saya dengerin Lagu-lagu Phantom Planet khususnya album The Guest rasanya nostalgia dengan masa-masa SMA dulu (ketauan kalo udah tua sekarang).. btw, kaset phantom planet itu  sudah hilang  dan saya juga tidak punya keinginan untuk membelinya lagi saya hanya sekedar mendownload lagu-lagu mereka, mungkin itu ya yang disebut fake fan…hehe

Happy Wekeend Everyone
