music: well rounded

people have been asking me if im gonna go to this event called FETE de la MUSIQUE. its actually a really great offer to those who really dig pinoy stuff cause there's so much for everyone going there to enjoy. there'll be different stages located around the el pueblo area. all the stages represent different types of music featuring different bands and singers from their genre. here's the different types of music featured: the undying blues, the raging rock, the fubu hiphoppers, the screaming electronica (or whatever you wanna call it), the never senseless alternative and the soulful jazz.


ahhhh. who ever came up with the idea that MUSIC BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER is such a genius! the language of the soul, if i must add. sometimes you can tell a person by the type of music he or she listens to. but thats only SOMETIMES ok. music is such a vague, peculiar thing that i cant even describe it. but i love it. its my stress reliever. my instant get away. no doubt about that.

people show their emotions through music. we cry our hearts out when that suuuupppeeerr sad (and sometimes old and pathetic) song suddenly plays on the radio during our heartbroken days as if its teasing us pa. people write those super major heart warming songs about and for their loved ones when they really feel like it. cheeziness galore. grabe i think ogie alcasid and ryan cayabyab are like the veterans already when it comes to song writing. (haha i laughed when i mentioned ogie. so pathetic. hehe)we dance when we listen to a super dancy song. we scream our lungs out when we listen to those 90's OPM songs (especially of eraseheads'. to those who dont know them and their songs, gawd our age difference must be so big!) as if noone's listening. yeah right.

different people listen to different types of music.
--->take for example my dear friend jacq. she's a certified rocker (not to mention a vocalist pa). she knows all those rock bands, even the underground ones. ive always wondered how the hell do rockers know those never-played-on-the-radio songs they listen to all the time. its like when i talk to jacq about music, we really dont have anything to talk about (unless its about spice girls, backstreet boys, etc). but let her talk about music to some rocker about their music and they'd get along pretty fine. oh, and whats with rockers and their gothic looks anyway? not really connected to "music" but what the hell. even aidz got into this genre. everytime im in his car, its all raaaaahhhh! and waaaahhhH! (love you bub!) ah, the screaming voices of rock. nothing against it. just not for me i guess. all good? all good!

--->alternative for me is way better than rock. although theyre closely related, i dont know, but alternative is.. ewan. basta. i think its better. eli is an alternative kinda guy. thats why i love listening to his cds. alternative to me has something more to give than those mushy senti sh*t. alternative is so diverse yet still specific when it comes to topics. plus! most of their lyrics are deep stuff. not just those ordinary lets-rhyme-words kind of lyrics. bands could talk about serious matters concerning life and would still manage to sound really good. gawd. isnt it obvious im such a big fan?

--->senti music. high school music. haha! when i was in high school, i was so inlove with this type of music. i guess everybody was. malamang. thats the time when you start discovering the actual feeling of falling inlove, getting hurt, blah blah blah. so malamang. its when you actually relate to a senti song that you suddenly just had to download every senti song with the same idea. haaayyy now, i only listen to these kind of stuff when im actually deppressed.

--->dancey music. trance, house, hed kandi, the likes. all in all, i remember dian. my dear dear friend dian. what can i say, dancey songs could really make you stand up and dance the night/whats left of it awaY!

--->tiff for me is the biggest fan of OPM. (tama ba tiffy?) ;) hihi i love OPM too. we've got so many pinoy talents here! gotta support them first! i love eheads. too bad theyre not together anymore. i love kitchie. i love bamboo. and mojofly. (o cge na nga) and rivermaya. not spongecola sorry (but i must admit, there songs are so singable!). fine. i love mymp also! and moonstar88 sometimes. i LOVE stonefree. and the list goes on. dont be too impressed. the list is not that long. forgive me for being too honest but i HATE radioactive sago project. i think they suck. sorry again.

--->pop culture phenomena. tsk tsk tsk. sometimes, even if the song is really good, i start hating it just because the whole "masa" loves it too. uhh. im so bad. its hard kasi when its traffic and you hear jeepneys playing your current favorite song. la lang. dont get me wrong, i love pop too. secretly nga lang sometimes. how could you say you love me? i memorized the whole thing! hehe!

--->rap/hip hop. i must admit, i loved rap before. rap and hiphop could actually be okay if only we take out all poser Filipinos who actually go out of their ways just to look like rappers also. i just hate it. those Filipinos who wear big chains, baggy everything (shirt and pants), cloth on their heads plus (take note!) fake bling blings pa! tsk tsk tsk! sorry for being so judgmental here. sorry for the nth time.


anyway, its really weird talking about music. like what i said, its so general. oh well. cant do anything anymore. gawd i gotta sleep na.

its already 4.58am. goodnight/goodmorning!
