溫柔

last sun, watching 五月天 perform in SuperBand finals, brought back fond memories

7th September 2001 你要去哪裡？巡迴演唱會 Singapore Expo. This concert marked 五月天's temporary hiatus of two years.

I attended the concert with xiaodi when i have not even heard of 五月天 lol

well it was a concert of a lifetime.... 五月天 was not that famous yet, but had a cult following... a band that writes its own songs were rare back then...

superb live band, made a fan out of me after one concert... 五月天 is made for live concerts....

the concert hall was not very big, round stage at the centre, we have very good seats, few rows from the front... once concert starts, the crowd went wild... went forward and bounced that night away... though i really have not heard any of their songs, mandarin or hokkien.... big Beatles fan, they threw in a few Beatles song... at least something familiar for me :)

its oso the closest i have even been to the stage in any concert... can even feel the sweat lol

this is my alltime fav from 五月天....



溫柔

走在風中　今天陽光　突然好溫柔
天的溫柔　地的溫柔　像你抱著我
然后發現　你的改變　孤單的今后
如果冷　該怎么渡過
天邊風光　身邊的我　都不在你眼中
你的眼中　藏著什么　我從來都不懂
沒有關系　你的世界　就讓你擁有
不打擾　是我的溫柔
不知道　不明瞭　不想要　為什么　我的心
明明是想靠近　卻孤單到黎明
不知道　不明瞭　不想要　為什么　我的心
那愛情的綺麗　總是在孤單里
再把我的最好的愛給你
不知不覺　不情不愿　又到巷子口
我沒有哭　也沒有笑　因為這是夢
沒有預兆　沒有理由　你真的有說過
如果有　就讓你自由

不知道　不明瞭　不想要　為什么　我的心
明明是想靠近　卻孤單到黎明
不知道　不明瞭　不想要　為什么　我的心
那愛情的綺麗　總是在孤單里
再把我的最好的愛給你
不知不覺　不情不愿　又到巷子口
我沒有哭　也沒有笑　因為這是夢
沒有預兆　沒有理由　你真的有說過
如果有　就讓你自由
自由　這是我的溫柔

why? this is one of their less cheem song (O level C6 after 4 attempts)

one that i can actually read off the screen and sing without checking dictionary

well at least 80% of the song lol

abba mania

blast the speakers!



ok i'm not that old, when abba was hot i'm not even a teen, so its technically not my "era"

but this is an all time fav on the dance floor, during my cheong days, miss those dancing days, maybe i should dance again?!?

anyway just need a break from very stressful flat selling, so while i wait for my Lord to provide the buyer, i shall butt out

Be Still and Know that I AM GOD

Hosanna

I was humming this song this morning on my way to work, in fact, the past few weeks, this song have really ministered to me.

Last week has been quite bad. Trying to rent a new office. Stress out with selling my flat. Even more stress out with buying my "dwelling place"

Over the weekend, the Lord reminded me to build up my faith in Him. In fact, while i was typing this, the Lord reminded me...

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. John 14:1

We sing Hosanna, but what does it mean? Found this to be interesting.

The Meaning of Hosanna
source: sproutingseeds.wordpress.com

Here is a little misunderstood word.

Hosanna - it means “liberate us!”. Or “Set us free”, “save us”.

Shocking? Lots of people think that it just a praise word, but it is actually more than that. So picture Jesus making his entry into Jerusalem on the back of the donkey and the Jews were shouting”Hosanna!”.

The Jews were acknowledging Jesus as the promised Messiah, whom they thought would free them from the Romans. They were asking Him to liberate them from the Romans (which they thought the promised Messiah was going to do). Imagine their shock when Jesus went instead to clean out their religion.

We of course know that Christ has done much more than the Jews thought He would. He has liberated us from sin and death. He has set us free from legalistic religion. So next time we sing”Hosanna!”, remember the meaning and remember what Christ has done for us.


Hosanna


I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes
Yeeeah

I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing

[Chorus]
Hosanna Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest [x2]

I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith

I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees
We're on our knees

[Chorus]

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity

[Chorus x2]

Hosanna in the highest
