I always find how amazing it is to compose countless tunes by just using seven different notes. Music tunes from classical, oldies, pops, R&B, whatever genres you can name of.
I started listening to pop songs (it’s actually 80s to be precise, but it was pop at that era) when I was in Grade 4. My classmate lent me some Hong Kong singers’ cassette tapes (yes, CD wasn’t that popular then). I immediately became madly in love with pop song since then. I started purchasing lots of albums. My parents started becoming worried about me. They were scared that I would neglect my studies because their daughter had been tuning in the radio days and nights and even sang along whatever music was playing on the radio while she was supposed to do her schoolwork and study! Not only that, I introduced my siblings to listen to the music I loved. I was even torturing my little brother; at that time he was just like around 1yo. Every morning I would blast the radio loud and made him dance at his small bed with me. Up till now, once in a while when I go back for vacation and while my sisters are back from summer break, we would have our so-called rave party. What a wild bunch of kids huh?!
I listen to quite a variety of songs. Yet I have my own favors. There are still some old songs I’ve listened for many years. Certain songs would just naturally remind me of certain events directly associated with the songs. Sometimes some songs have nothing to do with any events yet when I listen to them; the songs would project certain specific events.
I am also a bit obsessive when it comes to music. I can keep repeating a song for a continuous period. I’ve even made friends and sisters to come directly to my face, “Can you change to another song. I’m really sick of listening to this song thousands times!”
I received a request from AA few weeks back to put up Savage Garden’s “I knew I loved you” music video. Did I tell you guys that I love this song too! But I am reluctant to put this song up because I’d put it up few months back when I was having this track on repeat. Another reason is I am currently having a few other songs on repeat; I listen to these few songs when I am at home, at work or even singing in my mind. So what are these few songs? One of them is PCD’s Stick Wit U that you’re listening now (if you’re having your speaker on). These few songs have been accompanying me going through all the busy moment at work or when I crave for some sweet. Nope, you didn’t read wrongly, I did mean these songs taste so sweet. The sweet tune has the power to make me felt energized and happy when I was getting impatient at the stuff that I was doing.
If you hate the current music video now or if you’re getting a bit sick of Stick Wit U, I’m afraid you just have to mute your speaker. I’m not planning to change the track that soon. Hey, but just in case you happen to like this song too, I hope you’d feel energize, because I am. : )
