23rd May 2012 (What I Miss About You – Katie Melua)


Today’s song is “What I Miss About You” by Katie Melua.

What I like about this song is the way that it tells it story. At the beginning, the lyrics talks about a girl miss her boyfriend through the things that they have done when they were together. Then later on, we found out that her boyfriend lied to her, he turns his light off when she knew that he is at home, indicating that he have got a new girlfriend. At that point she realised that he is a player, she believe that he is using the same old trick on his new girlfriend. The song is rather sad, as Katie sung this song without much emotion, it defiantly doesn’t sound anger, so it gives me the impression that the protagonist is sad and lost. Hope you will enjoy the song.

24th Mar 2012 (The Closest thing to Crazy - Katie Melua)

The song of the day is “The closest thing to crazy” by Katie Melua. I love this song, and it brings back lot of memories.

I remember when this song first came out, I was still in high school, in fact the last year of high school. It was the time when I was so busy preparing for my final exam. One day when I was having dinner, I heard this song on TV in an ad. I instantly fall in love with it. I don’t know what about the song that I love, but it just stuck in my head. Back then, internet wasn’t that fast so it was also hard to track down more info on the song. So when I heard the song the second time on TV, I quickly grabbed my pen and paper and copied down the song name and the artist. It was the first time I heard the name Katie Melua, but her voice have already stuck in my head. Each day I quite look forward to dinner as I know that sometime during dinner I would hear some part of this song (in the ad, of cause). I remember I promise myself, after my final exam, I am going to buy myself this CD. And 2 months later, I got this CD overseas during my vocation. It was the first ever English CD that I got. I remember the first thing that I do was to play this song and then play it again and again. I think after a few days it already became the most played song in my iTune play list. So here you go today, hope you will enjoy this song as much as I do.
