A little song

I'm in the sun
I'm in the sun
Does that mean I'm nobody?

I'm in the sun
I'm in the sun
I'm just like everybody *repeat

Chorus:

I'm nobody but me
I'm nobody but me
I'm nobody but me

I am no one else but me...

these are lyrics to a song I wrote like... I think when I was still in J.C. ... hey, that's like X *censored no of years ago!

I was really into Nirvana then and so as you can tell the style of my music had a lot of its influences from the now defunct band. It was a forced departure since Mr Cobain shot himself in the head. Sad...

But he was a really good song writer cos besides the Beatles, he started the next revolution in the music industry. Broke away from the clutches of Record Moguls, totally defied the convention of big-haired, sleazy drug and roll rock bands of the 80s and gave the generation of children born out of the remnants of divorce and apathy a new voice.

The name of the voice is GRUNGE

I shall not go into the details cos it wasn't a really healthy culture to begin with. :) I'm glad I'm delivered from the spirit of self rejection and pain that came with this movement. Much like what Woodstock gave to America its free sex and drugs (marijuana and whatever nonsense) It was the beginning of the Fall...

But what I really admire is his God-given talents! - Yes, everyone is given talents and gifts by the Lord, whether you believe in Him or not.

Goodness, I mean this man's lyrics really cuts deep into your heart because of the reality of what emotions he portrays!

I wish I could write lyrics like that. Most songs only begin with "I love you"s and "how my heart breaks" etc, etc... you know the usual commercial fluff that comes out of the BIG MACHINE (shan't mention names here, lest someone stumble upon my blog and I get sued...)

A sample of his lyrics from their most favourite, albeit overplayed song, "Smells Like Teen Spirit"

With the lights out... it's less dangerous... here we are now... entertain us... i feel stupid... and contagious... here we are now... entertain us... yeah...

I mean who hasn't felt like that once in a while when you were a teenager... angsty, nobody understands me... I'm really bored, let me break some stuff in your house... ??

Truly. Teen Spirit. Words squeezed out like pure orange juice with all its natural goodness in one glass.

Except in this case, it's bitter and sour lemon... eew...

But what the heck, I wish I could write like that. :) words written from the heart that touches the souls of many so that they can catch a glimpse of what I'm seeing... and identify, and decipher and understand what it all means. What does LIFE mean?

I believe that's what songs are for. To touch the human soul and give them a new perspective to life.

So... forget the fluff... and give me the real deal.
