I’ve been listening to this song for the past few months and I just realized I hadn’t pimped it here yet. Just goes to show how much I’ve been neglecting posting here lately, opting to go through the easierroutes instead. At least this post remedies that. A bit.
Dig holds a certain… significance for me. It reminds me of someone. I’ll leave it at that. :) Personal meaning aside though, it’s a damn good song. It’s signature Incubus, you could say.
We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify.
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness;
We’ll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you’ll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we’ll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try.
We all have someone that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you’ll act as a clever medicine.
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we’ll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Certified awesome brought to you by anberlin (am still unsure about the capitalization of the first ‘a’).
Do you memorize theatrical lines
That seem to lead them in
Play the role with the good girl heart
Hide the tangled webs within
Who was it that led you on
That makes you want to hurt me so
Who do you want to forget
Who forgot you long ago
Do you still feel him
Calling in the air tonight?
Do you still feel it
Seems like you’ve done this before
You make breaking hearts look so easy
Seems like you’ve done this before
You’ve got breaking hearts all but down
And you’ve done this, you’ve done this before
You make stealing hearts look so easy
Where is the girl I adore?
You’ve got breaking up all but down
And I can’t love a thief anymore
Do you collect the souls you’ve lost
In the top of your dresser drawer
Count the number of tears displaced
On lonely bedroom floors
Now the shape where your heart once was
Slowly takes the place of you
Will they hold the memories now
Of the love I thought I knew
Do you still feel him
Calling in the air tonight?
Do you still feel it
Seems like you’ve done this before
You make breaking hearts look so easy
Seems like you’ve done this before
You’ve got breaking hearts all but down
And you’ve done this, you’ve done this before
You make stealing hearts look so easy
Where is the girl I adore?
You’ve got breaking up all but down
And I can’t love a thief anymore
You make breaking hearts look so easy
You’ve got breaking hearts all but down
You make breaking hearts look so easy
Seems like you’ve done this before
You’ve got breaking hearts all but down
And you’ve done this, you’ve done this before
The best you could hope to be is,
Now just a bitter sweet memory
And you make breaking hearts look so easy
I recently got around to experimenting with Hobnox’s excellent browser-based DAW, Audiotool. Played a bit with the newly added ToneMatrix into it, and out came this.
A friend of mine linked to this amusing little music toy. It’s basically scaled notes which are played by activating them on the 16-step sequencer grid.
The neat thing about it is that sharing with whoever wants to listen is easy. Get the numerical values of your random creation by right click – copy – pasting it. Load values into it by the same way.
Today’s post on TIGSource got me very intrigued. A community-driven comic, limited only by the ideas of those who contribute. The key is (or rather, are) numbers: the more participants there are, the more it grows outlandish and fun to join in. And as I saw, it can lead into hilarious results.
I’ve got my own community of insane web-warriors right here. Maybe I should raise the idea with them. Who knows to what new low we can sink. :D
On a side note, I love how punishingly difficult 9 is. Yes, I know it’s months old, but true to it’s old-school aesthetic, it’s the kind of game you can go back to again and again.
Yup, I can literally see the tumbleweed, uhh… tumbling through here. I’ve not updated this place in a while. Just like that last time last year, remember that? Hur hur hur.
Quick update on what’s been happening to me (which you can probably glean from my Twitter posts): I’ve been really busy at work, these past two months have been a killer. I’m also going through some bit of stress lately – again, work related. Thing is though, after I make it through this phase I feel like I’ll know for real whether I can continue doing this or not, like I can do anything and everything again. So yeah, I guess I’m psyching myself up to make it through this month.
Straight to the finish line, dude. Go straight to the finish line.
The latest song from Rico Blanco. The lyrics speak to me in a very real way, it’s melodic (that piano solo at the end of the bridge is awesome), and it’s funny. Which means it’s just like Business Time. Which is golden.
Iniwan ka na ng eroplano
OK lang baby
Wag kang magbago
Dito ka lang
Humimbing
Sa aking piling
Antukin
Kukupkupin nalang kita
Sorry wala ka nang magagawa
Mahalin mo nalang ako
Ng sobra sobra
Para patas naman tayo
Diba?
Sasalubungin natin ang kinabukasan
Ng walang takot at walang pangamba
Tadhana’y merong tip na makapangyarihan
Kung ayaw may dahilan
Kung gusto palaging merong paraan
Pinaiyak ka ng manghuhula
Hindi na raw tayo magkasamang tatanda
Buti nalang
Merong langit na nagtatanggol sa
Pag ibig na pursigido’t matyaga
Long as we stand as one
Ano man ang ating makabangga
Nothing will ever break us
Wala talaga
As in wala
Hahalikan nalang natin ang kinabukasan
Ng buong loob at yayakapin pa
Tadhana’y medyo overrated kung minsan
Kung ayaw may dahilan
Kung gusto palaging merong paraan
Gumawa nalang tayo ng paraan
Gumawa nalang tayo ng…
Baby, gumawa nalang tayo ng paraan
