I haven’t updated the video section of my website in a long time with any new music. I came across this South Korean band called Big Bang. I looked at a few of their songs, I could only one I liked and it is called “Love Song”. It is really catchy.
Although I have no idea what they are saying, except for “I hate this love song” (I think that’s what they are saying), the beat, tune or whatever you want to call it; is pretty catchy. Plus it is Korean, I have generated a new thinking towards Korean’s considering my girlfriend is Korean. (From the South of course) 😀
The only issue I have with South Korean music is that when they perform, they try to solely focus on the dancing. But in my opinion the dancing style in most Asian or Korean artists I’ve seen are terrible.
I actually came across this music video in a compilation of a video game that I used to play. So I looked up the song and it turns out the song is pretty bad ass!
Possibly two of my most favourite songs. I remember singing their songs in the car when my Dad used to take me out. I didn’t really care about my voice back then and just sung as loud as I possibly could. 😀 Or on the way to school I used to sing this. Good memories.
When I was a kid I was quite stubborn. I thought I was going to be some sort of athlete until I broke my leg in 2005 or was it 2006? The thing is I didn’t want to learn at school, I just wanted to practice running and keeping my stamina up especially when playing games like “it” on the playground. The only real subject I liked at school was history, I liked World War 2 and used to watch the history channel all the time. At the moment right now I’m still very interested in history. Although I’ve passed by World War 2 and probably won’t watch a program on the history channel if I can help it. (As I’ve probably seen all of them) – I actually like Chinese history with the Dynasties, emperors, kings and warlords. Enough about history.
So I was quite a stubborn kid. I wanted to learn how to play the guitar but it really wasn’t my thing, I tried the flute and I liked it. But the one thing I have always wanted to play is the piano. I guess I never took music as something serious. If there is one other thing I’d change about my life (There are actually quite a few things I’d change). it would be learning the piano. I would have loved to have learned how to play the piano. This is kind of a recent thing or this has sparked up over some inspiration from a guy on YouTube called Kyle Landry. I love Queen and he plays Bohemian Rhapsody in this video:
If you also look at a couple of his other video, this guy is immense. I just wished you could download these types of skills in your head and you’d have the same knowledge and understanding of how to play the piano. Although that wouldn’t be creative, it would be a lot easier and cheaper than learning how to play it all from the basics.
I would love to learn. My mother does play the piano, but she probably won’t teach me and or take it seriously if I asked her to teach me. I don’t like her playing style anyway, but even so, even if she could teach me, I would eventually develop a style that I like.
Whatever the case, I wish I could play just like Kyle Landry. That guy is my inspiration. One day I will learn how to piano.
I often find that it is music which can cheer you up or just forget about everything that is going on. I guess gaming does this as well. I game quite a lot and gaming helps. It makes you forget, it makes you think about other things going on which really mean nothing in the world. But for those few hours, you feel different, you feel you aren’t in trouble anymore. There is no one on the planet but yourself that matters and you use that self-importance to help others which you’d like to do in real life. Anyone reading this probably won’t understand, but that’s fine, because I understand.
I loved this version of “I’m coming home”, but this was sung differently to what I’ve heard and is an nice acoustic piece. It kind of relates in someways to my situation. It doesn’t offer a solution out, but states that someone is coming home and it doesn’t really what happens, because that person is going to where he/she belongs. Maybe I need to have that feeling of being able to belong somewhere as opposed to having to stay somewhere just for the sake of things. I guess that is another thing I have learned and maybe I’ll feel like I belong one day and “Let the rain wash away all the pains of yesterday”.
