The song that we keep singing in church… And I never get sick of it…

There is so much power when you call upon the name of Jesus… Cos when you do, every knee must bow, every tongue must confess that Jesus Christ is Lord… Every single problem or trouble must bow before the throne of Jesus…

And when I remember that, I know God is with me thru everything and He brings me reassurance and peace…

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
There is something about that name
Master, Saviour, Jesus
Like the fragrance after the rain

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Let all heaven and earth proclaim
Kings and Kingdoms will all pass away
But there’s something about that name

A song from happy times… A song about happy times… A song to remember happy times…

Kiss Me - Sixpence None The Richer

I’m in a love songs mood tonight…

It’s the night air… The moon… The riverside… The lights…

And of cos…

Michael W. Smith’s “I will be here for you”

[youtube]ItST3T29oyA[/youtube]

I really shouldn’t listen to Class95 in the evenings…

Ivan sang it at Kbox… and I was completely floored!!

Became one of my all time favourite Kbox-must-sing songs… =)

The lyrics are amusing, and so is the MTV… If you can’t understand Mandarin or Jap or both, I’ve included the translation…

Enjoy!

My Anata - David Tao

[spoiler '[+] Click for Lyrics’ ‘[-] Hide Lyrics’]

三更半夜 SABISHII的我
只聽見OJISAN騎著單車賣著饅頭
YOJI HAN DESU 你究竟在哪裡
難道你又是在KURABU唱著NAKASHI喲

哦 不知道你 還愛不愛我
我哪裡做錯 請你快告訴我
我打不還手 我罵不還口
只要你說一聲AISHITERU 別說SAYONARA
BAKA

HITORI DE 孤苦伶仃的我
苦等著ANATA兩年三個月沒有消息
哦 快要發瘋 我聽到門鈴聲
SUMIMASEN宅急便說他要找的在隔壁

哦 我懷疑你 已經不愛我
想要離開我 我求你不要走
我為你減肥 我為你喝醉
請不要說你已不愛我 親愛的ANATA

我要你知道 我永遠愛你
如果失去你 我就活不下去
我們最MATCH 我不會怪你
因為有一天你會看見我爬出電視機

Translation: (From Tingdong)

Past 3:30, lonely me
I only hear an old man riding his bike, selling steamed bread
It’s 4:30, where are you?
Is it possible you’re in a club again, singing Nakashi?**

Oh, I don’t know if you still love me
Where did I go wrong? Please tell me
I won’t hit back, I won’t yell back
Just say the words, “I love you” don’t say “goodbye”
Stupid…

Lonely me all alone
Bitterly waiting for two years and three months with no news of news of my anata
Oh, I’m almost going crazy, I hear the doorbell ring
“I’m sorry,” the person hurriedly says, the ones they’re looking for are next door

Oh, I suspect that you don’t love me anymore
You want to leave me, I’m begging you not to go
I’ve lost weight for you, I’ve become drunk for you
Please don’t say you don’t love me anymore, beloved anata

I want you to know I’ll love you forever
If I lose you, I can’t go on living
We two match the best, I won’t blame you
Because one day you’ll see me crawling out of your TV set…

I’m shocked that I never watched this MTV sooner… It’s even more beautiful than the song…

我的爱 - 孙燕姿

It’s also rather apt that she’s on a plane and everything… Cos at the time when this post gets posted automatically (yes, wordpress does that…), I should be on the plane and off for my holiday in Vietnam!!!

Be back on Tuesday!!!

And in the meantime, my little guest bloggers can go wild again…

P.S. If you would like to guest blog on TBP… Do let my friendly-neighbourhood-very-brilliant-and-cute (he put me up to this) IT guy know… He’ll hook you up with a password and teach you the ropes… Just leave a shout on my shoutbox…

Another cool song… Putting it here just for the heck of it…

G D
So your standing on a ledge,
Cadd9
It looks like you might fall. So far down,
F G
Or maybe you were thinking about jumping.
D
Now you could have it all,
Cadd9
If you learned a little patience!
F
For though I cannot fly,
G
I’m not content to crawl!…
D
So give me a little credit,
Cadd9
Have in me a little faith!
F
I want to be with you forever,
G
If tomorrow’s not too late!…

But it’s always too late when you’ve got nothing

G/D D Cadd9
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow,
G/D
Before the sun rises today…

Chorus:

G
If I am!
D Cadd9
Another waste of everything you dreamed of,
G/D
I will let you down…
G
If I am!
D Cadd9
Only here to watch as you suffer,
G/D
I will let you down…

So your walking on the edge,
And you wait your turn to fall.
But you’re so far gone,
That you don’t see the hands upheld to catch you.
And you could find the fault,
In the heart that you’ve been handed!
But though you cannot fly,
You’re not content to crawl!…

But it’s always too late when you’ve got nothing
So you say!…
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow,
Before the sun rises….

If I am!
Another waste of everything you hoped for,
I will let you down…
If I am!
Only here to watch you as you suffer,
I will let you down…

So you’re standing on a ledge,
It looks like you might fall…

If I am!
Another waste of everything you dreamed of,
I will let you down…
If I am!
Only here to as watch you suffer,
I will let you down…

The answers we find,
Are never what we had in mind.
So we make it up as we go along…
I won’t mention tomorrow.
And we won’t make those promises that we can’t keep…
I will never leave you!
I will never let you down!
I will never leave you!
I will never let you down!

Kay has this cute little dancing hamster that he got as a present…

On a particularly boring day, he took the hamster out of its dusty little corner and showed it to me… I was so amused I made Kay take a video of it, using my daddy’s Canon Powershot G7… and then uploaded it to Youtube… (That’s another reason why I love my dad’s new camera… It’s so easy to upload videos!!!)

[youtube]y-kh0HHQKTw[/youtube]

It’s such a happy, funny thing… Good stress reliever for those who are currently mugging very hard for their exams… I actually found another video on youtube of this same hamster! But the video quality of this one is way better… Haha!

One more thing: If you look very carefully at the computer monitor behind Jailhouse Rick (the name of the hamster), you can see some shadows moving…

That’s me, dancing along with the song… ;)

Had a real good time in cell today… For one thing, everyone was there! We haven’t had such a crowded cell in weeks…

Clemmie and Maomi shared grow… About forgiveness and reconciliations… And they really shared from their hearts… My cell leader really bared his soul today… Something he doesn’t do that often, but he should… Cos i think everyone was touched… Even those who didn’t know the details…

Yuqing was on a roll… She kept firing question after question… Reason? She had a 50c Mac’s ice cream before cell, and was on a sugar high… ahaha!

It was good of cos… Lively discussions are always fun…

Then there was the joke of the day…

Question: Name the two girls who are in charge of cell ministry expressions.
Answer: Cassandra & Casserine

Hahaha! That name came up cos everyone kept calling Cat, Cass… So Yuqing renamed her Casserine. It’s not a very good name to keep calling cos after a while, we all couldn’t pronounce “casuarina”!!!

But then, a name change is a name change… Don’t forget to call her name right on Saturday!

Catherine - David Tao

Oh yes… Someone got a haircut today, and the hairdresser says he looks like David Tao!
