but fails miserably due to artist block.

hello everyone!

Could you see the aisles of women?
Could you see them screaming and weeping?
Could you see the storm rising?
Could you see the guy who was driving?
Could you climb higher and higher?
Could you climb right over the top?
Why does a multi-millionaire
Fill up his home with priceless junk?

The wind is whistling
The wind is whistling
Through the house

Elvis are you out there somewhere
Looking like a happy man?
In the snow with Rosebud
And king of the mountain

Another Hollywood waitress
Is telling us she's having your baby
And theres a rumour that youre on ice
And you will rise again someday
And that there's a photograph
Where youre dancing on your grave

The wind is whistling
The wind is whistling
Through the house

Elvis are you out there somewhere
Looking like a happy man?
In the snow with Rosebud
And king of the mountain

The wind it blows
The wind it blows the door closed


"King Of The Mountain"
-Kate Bush

I've been off the radar lately. been a bit pre-occupied with a little sideline job. but mostly because my internet connection sucks! (ugh where's the internet connection when i need it the most.) i was a bit surprised i have a connection as of this writing (which why i was able to post a journal and submit a new artwork) but i'm betting it'll be gone in the morning (hopefully not). in addition to that, i haven't watched tv for almost a month (si gloria pa ba ang nakaupo? maunalad na ba ang Pilipinas? haha). It feels like i've been a hermit for almost a month.

so. how's everyone?

I got this idea from who took this test countless millenias ago

30 excerpts of lyrics from 30 random songs in my playlist (some are not in my playlist and was just included for fun lol)
Try and guess as much as you can.
some songs are english. others are jpop/ chinese songs. some of the lyrics are almost give-away.
i wonder if anyone can guess


1. "love, love, is a verb/ love is a doing word/ feathers on my breath..."


2. "baby, sometimes i'm so carefree with the joy that's hard to find/ and sometimes it seems that all i have to do is worry/ and then you're bound to see my other side"


3. "now take me dancing at the disco/ where you buy your winniebago/ i wanna ride on a white horse/ i want to ride on a white horse"


4. "Karma Police/ I've given all I can/ It's not enough"


5. "I go through all this before you wake up/ so i can feel happier/ to be safe up here with you"


6. "you will always gonna be my love itsuka/ dare ka to mata koi ni uchi te mo"


7. "it's late at night/ and i'm feeling down/ there are couples standing on the street sharing summer kisses and silly sad eyes"


8. "while you are away my heart comes undone/ slowly unravels in a ball of yarn"


9. "Please could you stop the noise, I'm trying to get some rest/ From all the unborn chicken voices in my head"


10. "so little time/ try to understand that i'm trying to make a move just to stay in the game/ i try to stay awake and remember my name but..."


11. "every word you say finds a home in me/ nothing that anyone could ever say could hurt me like this/ baby please don't light that cigarette"


12. "you'll be given love/ you'll be taken care of/ you'll be given love/ you have to trust it"


13. "see you in my dreams/ got me spinning round and round/ turning upside down/ but i only hear you breathe..."


14. "i was frightened/ but i just feel too tired to be fighting/ guess i'm not the fighting kind.."


15. "excuse me/ but i just have to explode/ explode this body of me"


16. "Destroy everything you touch today/ Destroy me this way/ Anything that may desert you/ So it cannot hurt you"


17. "if travel is searching/ and home what's been found/ i'm not stopping/ i'm a hunter"


18. "go on, go on/ come on leave me breathless"


19. "omoi dase ba/ aru ka ha haru ka/ mirai wa..."


20. "suddenly something has happened to me as i was having my cup of tea"


21. "arigatou to/ kimi ni iwareru to/ nandaka setsunai/ sayonara no...."


22. "you're alright/ there's nothing wrong/ self-sufficience please/ and get to work"


23. "shake it to the left/ shake it to the right/ poin to the east/ and point to the west/ shake it baby/ shake it baby/ baby, baby, baby shake it now..."


24. "lumilipas ang panahon/ kabiyak ng ating gunita/ ang mga punot' halaman bakit kailangan lumisan?"


25. "you only see what your eyes want to see/ how can life be what you want it to be.."


26. "now i'm a mom, my ego's let free/ now get the camera back on me/ i'm higher, eensy-weency spider"


27. "Ice age coming, ice age coming/ Let me hear both sides/ Let me hear both sides/ Let me hear both..."


28. "puso'y umaalog-alog-alog/ tumatalbog-talbog-talbog"


29. "She's addicted to nicotine patches/ She's afraid of the light in the dark"


30. "Oh baby, baby, baby/ My baby, baby/ Wo jue bu neng shi qu ni"
