h a k u n a m a t a t a.

this is my song of the day. i sang this song, together with iveta, almost every time today.



hakuna matata is a soundtrack from lion king, one of my favorite disney movies. hakuna matata is swahili phrases that translated as "there are no worries". this song is a really great song. it has that fun feeling when you hear or sing the song.



it just makes me wanna watch lion king again and again and again.


Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata?
Yeah. It's our motto!
What's a motto?
Nothing. What's a-motto with you?
Those two words will solve all your problems
That's right. Take Pumbaa here
Why, when he was a young warthog...
When I was a young wart hog
Very nice
Thanks
He found his aroma lacked a certain appeal
He could clear the savannah after every meal
I'm a sensitive soul though I seem thick-skinned
And it hurt that my friends never stood downwind
He was ashamed
And oh, the shame
Thought of changin' my name What's in a name?
And I got downhearted How did ya feel?
Everytime that I...
Hey! Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!
Oh. Sorry
Hakuna Matata! What a wonderful phrase
Hakuna Matata! Ain't no passing craze
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna matata! Hakuna Matata!
Hakuna Matata! Hakuna matata!
kuna matata! Hakuna Matata! H
Hakuna Matata! H aakuna--
It means no worries for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free philosophy
Hakuna Matata!
(Repeats)
I say "Hakuna"
I say "Matata"

it's you.

it's my all-time favorite song from super junior. i fell in love with this song since the first time i heard it back in january 2010. this song also made me fall in love with super junior.

this song is a really great song. in my opinion, it's super junior's best song so far. it has amazing lyrics and beautiful lyrics, and every members got lines to sing! many people love this song so much. even the members, they love this song too. it also has amazing dance moves. my favorite part? the chest pumping dance during the "oh oh only for you" part. everyone dance it in sync. it was beautiful. i must say that i love it's you more than sorry sorry (both song and choreography). the play count on my itunes? more than 1000 ;)

what makes me love this song more is the fact that it was the very last mv that have all 13 members appearing together. we know that kibum wasn't participating on super junior's 3jib until now. months later, kangin's controversies makes him can't appear on TV and now he's in the military for almost a year. and our beijing fried rice, hangeng.... well, i don't know what to say but he chose to leave the group and we can't do anything about him. hearing this song and seeing the mv just makes me all 13 members together :')

너라고 (it's you) is very special cause it has 3 versions of music video. the first version is the dance version where you can see all 12 members (yes, 12 because kibum isn't dancing at all) dancing in sync. such a beautiful dance move.


the second version is the drama version. in this mv, you can see all 13 members appearing one by one singing their own lines (except for kibum. he only appears in the beginning and at the end of the video). a little trivia: they filmed the first 1-2,5 minutes of the video without making any cut in it. so, if in the middle of filming one member makes a mistake, they will have to do it from the beginning all over again. such a different and creative concept.


the third and final version is the original version mv. it contains cuts from both dance and drama version of mv. i must say this is also my favorite mv of super junior. it's the best mv of them so far. even kyuhyun said so :p


and here's the english translation of the lyrics:

It’s you
It’s you
It’s you
It’s only you
It’s you
It’s you

I don’t need anyone else, it’s only you
When you ask again, it’s only you
Even if you already have another love
I can’t forget you, I can’t turn back around
Oh ~
The moment my eyes began to burn
The moment my heart was captured by you
I have no regret, I chose you
That’s right, it’s you

Chorus :
Oh whatever anyone anyone says, it doesn’t matter to me
Oh whoever whoever curses me, I’ll only look at you
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

Oh when you tell me you love me
When you tell me thousands and millions of times
Even when my heart sets on fire, my dry lips wear out
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you

It’s you
I don’t need any words. it’s just you
“ It’s too late “ , but for me it’s just you
I know our love is wrong
I can’t give up, I can’t let you go
Ah Ah

My lips, cold as can be, are even more blue
I cry out to find to find your warmth
I call, even though I call for you
And there’s no reply, I’ll wait for you

Chorus :
Oh whatever anyone anyone says, it doesn’t matter to me
Oh whoever whoever curses me, I’ll only look at you
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

Oh when you tell me you love me
When you tell me thousands and millions of times
Even when my heart sets on fire, my dry lips wear out
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you Oh oh only for you
Oh oh only for you
For me, it’s you, it’s you
Why don’t you know, why don’t you know?
For me, it’s you, it’s you

Oh whatever anyone anyone says, it doesn’t matter to me
Oh whoever whoever curses me, I’ll only look at you
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

Oh when you tell me you love me
When you tell me thousands and millions of times
Even when my heart sets on fire, my dry lips wear out
Even when I’m born again, it’s still only you
(Still Still) Even as time goes by

It’s you
"On the outside, I'm laughing
But on the inside, I'm crying"

I have to forget you, I miss you so much
Even if you never know how much it hurts, I will forget"

letter to J.

dear Opa,

how are you? it's been a month since you're very last day with us and sometimes i still can't believe that you're gone already. we're fine here and we're moving on. but one thing for sure, we miss you. too much.

there's really a lot that i wanna say to you, i wanna share with you. i wanna thank you so much for being here together with us. thank you for being a really great grandpa for almost 19 years in my life. thank you for always bringing all of us together. thank you for teaching me everything. thank you for everything.

19 years. it's really a lot. many of my friends didn't have that opportunity to know their grandpa for that long. but i was and i'm grateful for that. there's lots of memories that we spent together. and i know, we will never ever able to forget that.

you were there when the first time i came to this world, 19 years ago. you were there when i celebrated my 1st birthday. you were there when i went to school for the 1st time. you were there when i graduated from elementary school, junior high school, senior high school. you were there when i was 17. you were there last christmas, last new year, last chinese new year.

one thing that i always remember that you are the only one that keep encouraging me to learn mandarin. even though i refused that a lot, but you always said that it's going to be useful someday. i realized that now, Opa. i promise that i'll learn mandarin before it's too late and i promise that i'll make you proud.

i miss you, Opa. but i know that we'll meet again, someday :')

in memory of our beloved Opa, Juwana Setiawan

lonely.

no. that's not my current mood. but it's 2NE1's newest track!

both song and music video just come out not long ago, to be exact at 10pm sharp. and i'm addicted already :)

this song has a very beautiful melody and NO auto-tuned! yay! i feel very happy because honestly, i HATE auto-tuned songs cause it ruined the singer's beautiful voice and i'm so disappointed because most of the new songs right now are auto-tuned songs. even the previous album of 2NE1 were full of it. so when this song came out and there's no auto-tuned on it, i'm very excited. as a result, i keep abusing the replay button on my laptop ;p

check out the music video below:


here's the english translation of the lyric:

The words I’m saying right now, I don’t know if they’ll hurt you
They’ll probably make you hate me forever
You, saying that I’m not the same as I used to be, is not completely untrue
This changed me is a stranger to myself as well

You are so kind but
That’s the way you are but oh
I don’t know I don’t know
Why I am like this
We were so in love, and you’re here now but oh
I don’t know
I want to find myself now

Baby I’m sorry, even when I’m with you, I’m Lonely
I must be lacking when it comes to love, please forgive this person horrible person I am
I’m sorry, this is your and my story
I must not be worthy of this thing called love, even though I’m by your side
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely

You didn’t do anything wrong, I’m the strange one
It seems I’ve already been prepared long ago, for our breakup
I really wanted to treat you well, out of all the times, why is it when I’m confronted by love
I am shrinking away & am lonely endlessly

You are so kind but
That’s the way you are but oh
I don’t know I don’t know
Why I am like this
We were so in love, and you’re here now but oh
I don’t know
I want to find myself now

Baby I’m sorry, even when I’m with you, I’m Lonely
I must be lacking when it comes to love, please forgive this person horrible person I am
I’m sorry, this is your and my story
I must not be worthy of this thing called love, even though I’m by your side
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely

Cuz I’m just another girl
This night is lonely, I
Can’t take any more, Good bye
Cuz I’m just another girl
I’m so lonely
Even though I’m by your side right now
Baby I’m so lonely

Lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely
Baby I’m so lonely lonely lonely


the generous after school.

if you asked me about who's the best performance group in south korea, then my answer will be after school. why after school? what's so good about them? why not the other group?

last year, they made a comeback with a marching band concept. they appeared on a drum-line with their newest addition member, lizzy. when asked, they said that they have practicing to play the drum for 5 months. and i think, the result is beyond expectation! their performance really blown everyone away. and here's the music video of let's do it (the drum performance):


seems like it's not enough, this year they made another comeback with tap dance concept. they came in with the powerful dance moves and also with their newest addition member, e-young. this time around, they also practicing the dance for 5 months. and when they performed it live, everyone were once again blown away. and here's the music video of let's step up (the tap dance performance):


seeing their performance and their all-kill comeback concept, we all know that they're really trying their best to give the best for their fans.

and can i say that i'm waiting for their next breakthrough performance?


so into u - f(x).

this is my favorite song at the moment.

so into u is one of the song from f(x)'s newest album, pinocchio. unlike the other songs that are up tempo and cheerful songs, this is a ballad track that showcase victoria, luna, amber, sulli, and krystal's vocal and singing ability.

you can listen to the track here.

besides the soft melody, the lyrics of this song has great story. it tells us a story about a girl who wants her guy so bad, she never wanted to be parted with him. but this guy appeared to be someone that she doesn't recognize anymore. she wants to tell him that she's so into him and she needs him, but those words are hard to say.

here's the english translation of the lyric:

It’s like you’re uninterested, it’s like you’re always busy
And it’s like you think if you call first
You’re losing a game

I’ve always been like that too
You’re different this time
You’re a different person somehow, listen

I don’t want to lose you
I don’t think you’ll ever come back again
So tell me what’s up
To have my heart
Without having to hide
With a little more love
I want to deliver my heart
And tell you, looking straight into your eyes
So into U

Although I miss you; although I want to hold you
As if it was a habit to back off when someone approached me

I’m someone who did that to everyone
You’re different this time
You’re a different person somehow, listen

I don’t want to lose you
I don’t think you’ll ever come back again
So tell me what’s up
To have my heart
Without having to hide
With a little more love
I want to deliver my heart
And tell you, looking straight into your eyes
So into U

Everyone says
“Girls are prideful,”
So to you too
Even if you try to protect me
I Need You, I Want You
These words are hard to say
But I’ll find the courage to say them, Oh

I don’t want to lose you
I don’t think you’ll ever come back again
So tell me what’s up
To have my heart
Without having to hide
With a little more love
I want to deliver my heart
And tell you, looking straight into your eyes
So into U

I don’t want to lose you
I don’t think you’ll ever come back again
So tell me what’s up
To have my heart
Without having to hide
With a little more love
I want to deliver my heart
And tell you, looking straight into your eyes
So into U
