The Saddest Song Ever

I thought I had written before why I thought “Shadow of Love” is the saddest song ever. Seems not. So, here goes… There are so many sad songs out there, a good number on break ups and the aftermath, but this one is on longing. The longing to be with someone, to have someone to hold on to. My previous…

Lost Heart

Omg. I think I have found another (powerful) sad song. I’ve listened to it quite a few times, but I guess I never really paid close attention to it. The tune is nice as many Yebles will attest to. It’s handsome oppa boss Yesung’s “Corazón Perdido (Lost Heart)”. I have no idea why, but today I really LISTENED to it…

Because Pretty Things Don’t Last

Was listening to Olivia Lufkin’s songs, the inspi’ REIRA ones in particular. I’ve always said “Shadow of Love” is the saddest song ever, but really, all the inspi’ REIRA songs have a tinge of sadness to them even if they sound more rock. I guess they truly fit the character of Serizawa Reira and Olivia brings out the character really…

Sakihokoru Thoughts Part I

The purpose of this post is to share my thoughts on Yesung’s title track “咲き誇る時を待つのは” of his new Japanese album. I know I have been yapping a lot about Yesung lately, but this one is really not a result of my fangirl moments. I felt like he kept asking fans about the song and MV — what they thought about…

You Can Feel the Pain, Don’t You?

I kinda like the pace like that. Not too bogged down with IG work so I have some time to blog my thoughts. I have been using Spotify a lot lately. Gone are the days of downloading mp3s. This is much more convenient. Doesn’t take up space in my laptop too. But one thing irks me. I can’t find certain…

i dreamt i talked to shin-chan

There’s no fancy way of putting it, but simply, I dreamt I talked to Shin-chan from AAA. Not as a fan at a fan meet, but as a friend. We were sitting in the back seat of a car, waiting for some friends or family? Not certain who we were waiting for. We were listening to some Japanese music. I…

dear AAA

Dear members of AAA, The high touch (high five) session was a pleasant surprise during the fan meeting, but it went by so fast that I couldn’t really register everything. Frankly speaking, after Chiaki, it was all a blur. I wish there was more time to interact with each member because there’s just too much to say to you guys.…

takizawa kabuki

After all the years of hoping to go to a JE concert and/or seeing a JE boy, the first one I saw was Takki. (Luckily it was Takki and not some newbie small fry JE kid boy.) I believe this is the first time any JE-related event is held in Singapore. I’m talking about this — Takizawa Kabuki, which was held…

jayesslee concert

We almost couldn’t get a chance to go to the Jayesslee concert because the tickets sold out so quickly. But two more concert sessions were opened up and we managed to get tickets to the concert on Saturday night. Off I went to the concert with Serena, Marissa and Lynette. If you don’t know who Jayesslee are, they are a…
