Man in the Mirror

June 26, 2009 Leave a comment

We had a small party earlier tonight, for colleague Davey’s son, Daryll’s 3rd birthday.

It was fun! The food was great! We had spaghetti, ice cream, muffin, roasted chicken..
Then there’s the Videoke mic.
You may ask, what is a Videoke? LOL!!!

Videoke is a very popular form of entertainment in the
Philippines. An entertainment in which amateur singers or just anybody who wants
to try singing, sing along with recorded music using a microphone. On video, the
voice of the original singers are removed or muted and the lyrics are displayed
with corresponding moving cursors and changing text colors so that one can
easily follow the song. These serve as a guide to successfully deliver the song.
It can be in a plain TV with an attached player or it can also be a videoke
machine wherein you press the corresponding buttons to enter the number of your
song and then play it.

I saw in the booklet, Man in the Mirror – Michael Jackson. Something very hard to pass. It’s one of my all-time favorite song, the lyrics so beautiful. I remember listening to my cassette tape during high-school years, just to get the lyrics. Sorry, internet was a very far technology then. hahaha! Indeed, change must start in ourselves.

Anyway, I guess with the good music MJ shared in this lifetime, he will be greatly miss.. Great song, brilliant artist.. here’s to MJ!!!

Melchor installed me a Real Player here in my laptop, that I can now listen to the radio stations back home.. LIVE!! hehe! It’s been awhile since I last listen to Wave 89.1 FM.
I guess I just find it really cool, and a bit happy… It’s Sunday night now, and I still remember the Sunday night soft and calming music.. and can lull you to sleep! hahaha 🙂
I’m not sure if I’m sleepy yet now, I just spent the afternoon dozing off, after the De La Hoya-Pacquiao boxing fight! haha! Well, congratulations to Pacquiao! Good fight indeed!! 🙂
Pretty cool!!

Time of My Life Lyrics – American Idol Winner’s Song 2008

I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
