M-flo: Deep Within (Planet Shining 2000)
I was asked one day, if I had a can of memories
Would it have an expiration date to forget or not to forget
Can I choose to drain away my heart's resounding blues
Just when I thought I reached my destination
I was only back to where I first started
Becoming who I've always hated
the unbecoming unleashed
So won't you speak to me...
Bad sense of humor, uttered softly, you just spilled some coffee
you stained my clothes as well as my clear conscious, probably accidental
But the thoughts that crossed my mind would leave you petrozoomin by
unrecordable with pad and pencil
Anyway I tremble symbolizing my temperature rising,
reminiscing the times when I'd so anything for you
But not knowing why, like Abraham sacrificing Isaac
I worshipped you, you were my idol, silly, silly of me
But right around now, I find no desires,
as a matter of fact, I'm biased against all your opinions, like dry rose,
once lively and captured your heart
But now destined to be crushed and become dust,
till death do us part ashes to ashes
I once died for this world, but now born again,
oh lord I'm born again my barefeet on cold cement,
waiting on the day of resurrection irrelevant,
small talks with you that take us no where
I don't know how I was able to bear, the way you didn't show care
I guess I harbored resentment this whole time, kept it within
Never exposed what's been on my mind, but now you know
Self denial... used to numb my pain
But nowadays I can't find the novocane ways to hide what I already know
I'd rather you shout nonsense than to whisper hurtful truth
Just when I thought I got all I wanted I realized I lost just about everything
Saying what I've never said to anyone breathing murderous thoughts
So won't you speak to me...
Three words of truth shine deep within me anchoring my stormy heart
I need faith, to see what I can't see yes I need hope, to keep me going and
I need love, your love, safe and sound, maybe that's all I need, from deep within...

This song is so blue, so emotional and poetic that I can't help but put this up. I guess I have always been attracted to sadness in one way or another. So here it is again, another bluesy jazzy song. I just want to share with everybody this song which is sung by my favouritest jpop group: M-flo. Even though Lisa has left the group and gone on to establish her own singing career, I still enjoy Lisa's unique singing style and voice. (although I know her fanbase has dropped bcos of this decision.) Her vocal range is huge, from deep low to pitch high and that is where her talent lies. I'm a soprano and i can't hit anything lower than alto. Asking me to sing a guy's song (Z chen style) is really painful for my throat. Verbal and Dj Taku still rocks and I look forward to more m-flo albums and collaborations with other artists. Lisa is mixed blood!!Labels: DJ Taku, Lisa, M-flo, Verbal
