Finally, a new song

but it was nice to meet you (working title)

center stage, the stars are aligned, a special night, a special moment
23 candles to signify the start
two kids, who had a connection, one spark, divine intervention
and great conversation

i know it was brief, but you made an impression

new year’s eve, we shared our first kiss, it was awkward, and i knew that i missed
i messed up the chapter of this fairy tale
you were my princess, was i your prince? did you need saving? could you save me?
your signals were confusing

i know it was brief, but you made an impression

now you’ve packed, and you’re ready to go, on a plane, all on your own
wish i could be there to see you off
but i aim to be more than a thought, not a memory that you forgot
this song should last longer than me

i know it was brief, but you made an impression

breaking into school, laying under stars
fingers intertwined, kisses on the lips
sharing couple seats, girlfriend for a day
head pressed on my cheek, hearts beating in time

i know it was brief, but you made an impression

and I want
to be the boy that you miss
when you’re thousands of miles away
and you’re thinking of home

and I hope
that everything you do
reminds you of me and everything that we’ve done
this song is for you

I woke up this morning inspired, and wrote and did a rough recording of this song, you can check it out on myspace.

Gig #18

And so, I still haven’t got my internet back yet- but the streamyx people told me it would be this week, so let’s just hope they deliver. I have loads of stories to share, but no time to blog them when I’m out, so stick around for a while more! This blog isn’t dead :p

And just a quick announcement, I’ll be performing at the doppelganger open mic stage on New Year’s Eve at Soho KL, around 5-ish. So if you’ll be there for NYE, do come check me out!

My gig on Sunday was amazing! Loads of friends turned up, the acts were solid, and everyone had a great time. Definitely looking forward to more doppelgangers like the last one!

And I just gotta plug my favorite band this year: My Favorite Highway. I’ve been listening to these guys all week on repeat non stop, and they’re now up there as one of my favorite bands of all time. Check out Getaway car, Steel City, and Simple Life. They aren’t heavy and they write great tunes with great lyrics. Band of the year for me 😀
