AES817 I Guess I just Feel Like
I'ts been awhile since I write something about music. I guess this is one of them then. A lyric that really resonated with what I was feeling lately... Somehow a song from John Mayer just clicked as I hear him sing the lyric bellow. This is from his song entitled I Guess I Just Feel Like. Heard this song so many times but somehow it sounded differently this morning as I was cleaning up the house this morning. I stopped, turned up the volume and check the lyric... Yes, definitely what I have been feeling lately.
Well yes, I think that the world has gone mad...as the Javanese people said, jaman saiki jaman edan.
Everything seems to be in chaos, people, are in conlict, countries are in war. Disasters everywhere. People hurt people even in families.
Seems like everyone is telling lies. Even we can not believe what the media is saying. It's hard to tell what is the truth. People seem to have forgotten about themselves, about what it is to be a human being...
Yes the world has gone mad.Which is why people drown themselves in anything that could escape from the madness, just hiding themselves, taking refuge from all the noise.
But somewhere within the lyrics John mentioned the answer too. Love is the answer. Isn't that beautiful...
Love, I believe is always there. Never goes anywhere, I think it is just hidden, forgotten, burried somewhere beneath all the madness. We just need to find it again.

Kali ini saya mau menulis lagi tentang musik. Salah satu lagu yang saya suka dari Natalie Imbruglia. Penyanyi cantik yang suaranya ciamik. Entah kenapa saya sangat suka lagu ini, aransemennya kuat banget ya. Mungkin juga karena musik pembukanya didominasi nada-nada berat - termasuk permainan bas ya…
