MuteMath and Manipulation

Now.... i thought they were just an ordinary pop band once i just randomly looking for a song, BUT THIS?!?!



I found this while just looking for any video that has the keyword : "backfire", then this came out:



The song is all modernly produced, so i just stereotyped it for a while but after seeing the first video(unique presentation of percussion playing and spontaneous arranging) it kills me..

See... i got this one big problem... I usually say the things i want to say in the wrong way. Its not my intention to manipulate the words, but i just dont have the discipline to adjust my words properly first. Then sometimes, it shows that im disrespecting people.

Of course, i can't lie, sometimes i do have this evil side of me... of underestimating... im sorry... BUT NOT ALL THE TIME!

PLEASE FORGIVE MY IRRESPONSIBLE MOUTH

well.. here's the lyric for

Mutemath - Backfire

Please tell me,Why are we,Trying so hard.
Why worry,It's over,
We always fall right back,
To where we start.

There goes another one of our,Sure-fire plans,
It backfired again,
We try to think it through,The best that we can,
I bet it's gonna backfire again.

Take what its,Given you,
How does that sound,
Everything is,All thought through,And fool-proof,
Now watch it all,Crumble down,And down again.

There goes another one of our,Sure-fire plans,
It backfired again,
We try to think it through,The best that we can,
I bet it's gonna backfire again!,
Backfire again,
It's gonna backfire again!.

Knives dont carry,Laws that vary,
They're just what we fought on,
Save me coffin,Scars are talking,
Tell us where we are,
(Where we are now)
Where we are now,
(Where we are now)
Where we are now,

They ah! A ah! A ah! talking,
They ah! They ah,!
Were telling them a story!.

Marunouchi Sadistic. Living the Rock 'n' Roll life

Tokyo Jihen is one of my favorite bands. And one of my favorite songs from them is Marunouchi Sadistic.. This song is about a person who just live the rock 'n' roll way. She mentioned all her gear to live is just music stuff (Marshall, RAT, Rickenbacker 620 etc.)

"I’m looking for a good way to fly
I’m searching for a way you can’t buy
You know I know a kickin’ way to die
It’s rock and roll, martyrs keep the fans high
Still floating, as time rolls by"

Scroll below for more translation of the song

It all started because of this video first:


it was actually a single from Shiina Ringo's Album. When Shiina did her Tokyo Jihen band, they played with a new arrangement


then.... later on, When Tokyo Jihen released their "Adult" album, they did another new arrangement. This one is my favorite one. which is this one:



here's another video, i just love the drums and Shiina's semi-seducive cute act:



NOW.. this is the latest that i've found... go to 3:55 to skip to Marunouchi Sadistic:


She actually changed the lyrics to english.. that is something new.. This time, the arrangement is slower than the new one but still cool. TOKYO JIHEN is just soooo... sooo.. whats that word...?

oh heck, forget about it. here's the original arrangement of Shiina Ringo's Marunouchi Sadistic:



Here's the translation of this song:

Playing cops and robbers ’neath Ginza signs
All who chance to prosper shall go blind
Won’t you buy me a Ric to play
What I got ain’t enough to pay

I’ll play a riff

Plug me into Marshall, I’ll blow out your window
And trip my way up to eternal heights
RAT and I will lay down and shake out your eardrums
A hit of this distortion makes me high

The reward’s on the parallel lines after joining a company
I love Tokyo but there’s nothing there
Gimme a receipt
No tax accountants here Korakuen

I’ll rip into those robes and pursue the Dharma
A Buddhist monk of my own would feel fine
Selflessness and cessation get you Nirvana
If Kurt would beat my Gretsch, I think I’d fly

In the future I want you to be a monk and get married
Every night on your bed just playing games
I wanna try being a pizza place girl
And then Benzie smacks me with his Gretsch

I’m looking for a good way to fly
I’m searching for a way you can’t buy
You know I know a kickin’ way to die
It’s rock and roll, martyrs keep the fans high
Still floating, as time rolls by

The first song that came into my mind when I woke up today

I woke up because i felt something on my leg which tickles, tengok2 si chukey tengah gigit-gigit. sakit hati.. but the funny thing is,

the first song that came to my head was this:

Oasis : Stand By Me

That's why i searched it up at YouTube to share it on my FB(I always do that)..

I never knew what the song meant till i watched the video

NOBODY KNOWS THE WAY ITS GONNA BE

In life, we can never expect what's gonna happen to us in the future. You just gotta live with it.

But no one could live their lives on their own. That's why we should Stand by ourselves to be more careful in life

well.... that's my point of view though.







Thanks for reading.

I love music so much, next thing i know

I end up making a blog so that i can share about my music life and all..

I started out doing music for fun,
then the eager to do something in the music industry builds up,

thats when i struggle..

My parents once never let me took music as a career, but now... 2011, i am a Music Student in UiTM.

Its kinda fun yet really tiring, my first composing assessment is to compose 2 songs , well. My idea is to remake my Kembali... but the hard part is i have to turn it in scores... wow.. thats just new for me... i need to install Sibelius for that.. i finished the guitar part, but my head says that i just gotta add the orchestric strings ensemble... tu yang bikin penat senarnya...

so you guys are gonna hear a new version of Kembali soon... do wait for it aite
