I took a trip down memory lane today, when mummy and I listened to the hailed pop duo Savage Garden on the way to the moon (i mean, workplace) and back.
Man. What an era. Those were the days.
It was the first concert I attended - pure adrenaline, way back when pop was catchy and melodious and the lyrics meant something (unlike the hiphop-infused monotonous crap they have nowadays e.g., Party Like a Rockstar, Umbrella-ella-ella-what-on-earth-are-you-singing). I remember seeing Darren Hayes from afar, sashaying up and down the stage-walkway, oozing style and confidence. I remember hearing the crowd scream as Daniel Jones made wonderful music on his guitar, and then threw his guitar picks into the crowd, much to the fangirls' joy.
Daniel Jones was my very first pop-star-idol. I loved him. Haha. I just amazed me that he could write such beautiful melodies that could compliment Darren's lyrics so well.
To the Moon and Back
She can't remember a time when she felt needed If love was red then she was color blind All her friends, well they've been trialed for treason And crimes that were never defined She's saying, "Love is like a barren place, And reaching out for human faith is It's like a journey I just don't have a map for"
Tears of Pearls
Is love really the tragedy the way you might describe? Or would a thousand lovers still leave you cold inside? Make you cry... These tears of pearls
All these mixed emotions we keep locked away like stolen pearls Stolen pearl devotions we keep locked away from all the world
We twist and turn where angels burn Like fallen soldiers we will learn Once forgotten, twice removed Love will be the death... The death of you
Santa Monica
But on the telephone line I am anyone I am anything I want to be I could be a super model or Norman Mailer And you wouldn't know the difference On the telephone line, I am any height I am any age I want to be I could be a caped crusader, or space invader And you wouldn't know the difference Or would you?
