やっぱり、一人だよね、僕は。
一人でいて、もう疲れたけど、人生は続けていくのね。
仕方ないな。生まれてきたから、生きてゆこう。
リズムを変えてみよう。

Maybe it was the beer. Maybe it was the rhythm. Maybe it was the deejay. Or maybe it was stuff in the beer, I don't know. What I remember was the beat vibrating though the stool, though the wall, and ultimately under the floor though which everyone was inexplicably connected to the music. And suddenly it was smooth, and suddenly it was heavy, and I could feel it beating in me, as if my organs were too, were beating to it. Suddenly the lights were flashing, suddenly the beat was in me. And then, just so suddenly again, the beat took over me. I could feel the pulse in my legs and arms, and my body began to move in unfamiliar half-beats. It was my body, assimiliating the drumbeats into my system... there was something strange and unfamiliar about it... but I should quite think, that that night, I was dancing.

KL。友達がいるなんてうそみたいに一人だな。
旅は、楽しいはずかな。
普通やってないことをやるのは、面白いが、それは「楽しい」には限らない。
それだけで旅を続けられるかな?
長い旅をしている方々は、どんな心境で流離の人生を歩んでるかな。
一人で旅しても楽しい行きかた、それを習いたいな。

Okay I've been looking for this song for ages, and am finally coming to this. If anyone knows this song, please mail me:

Genre: Japanese Pop
Singer: donno!
Lyrics: donno!
Composer: donno!

シンガポールは立派なお国になってるよね、昨日二つのシンガポール人のアルバムを買って、聞いて、そう思ってた・・・

Bought Huang Yida's new album just because one section of one song on radio. It's his music... luscious, organic, orgasmic. It wasn't like I heard exactly what words he sang, but the words and the music came through well. And so it was his music that drew me in. Somehow this time round, I don't really care too much what the lyrics are, just happy that the lyrics agreed with the music... usually, I'm drawn in first by the music, then the lyrics - and then I start liking the song really a lot and a lot because of the lyrics. Maybe it's just that this time it's just the sound that mattered...

But then, the sound of the lyrics could change the sound of the music. Anyway...

So are you a music person or a lyrics person?

Put it in another way, is it the looks or the personality that you look for?

Kinda the same thing, ain't it?
