Yet another movie

One sound, one single sound
one kiss, one single kiss,
a face outside the window pane,
however did it come to this?

A man who ran: a child who cried
a girl who heard, a voice that lied
the sun that burned a fiery red
the vision of an empty bed

The use of forge, he was so tough
she'll soon submit, she's had enough
the march of fate, the broken will
someone is lying very still

He has laughed and he has cried
he has fought and he has died
he's just the same as all the rest,
he's not the worst, he's not the best

And still this ceaseless murmuring,
the babbling that I brook,
the seas of faces, eyes upraised
the empty screen, the vacant look

A man in black on a snow white horse,
a pointless life has run it's course,
the red rimmed eyes, the tears still run
as he fades into the setting sun

The Distance - Evan and Joran

The sky has lost its color
The sun has turned to grey
At least thats how it feels to me
Whenever youre away
I crawl up in the corner
To watch the minutes pass
Each one brings me closer to
The time youre cominback

I cant take the distance
I cant the miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im callinyour name
But I cant take the distance

I still believe my feelings
But sometimes I feel too much
I make believe youre close to me
But it aint close enough
Not nearly close enough

I cant take the distance
I cant the miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im callinyour name

I brave fire and I brave rain
To be by your side Id do anything
I cant take the distance

I will go the distance
I will go the miles
Thats how much you mean to me
cause I cant take the distance
I cant take these miles
I cant take the time until I next see you smile
I cant take the distance
And Im not ashamed
That with every breath I take Im callinyour name
I cant take the distance

Its hard to remember
As long as youre away
When I find solace
Theres only one way

Dil Se Re....

A very nice song sung really well by Rahman...

Amazing....

Really dont want to write much about it... watch it.... wonder whether there are many who have such amazing talents....

They really do use it for more things than just one ;-)

On love and its loss or on hope and faith??

A very beautiful song that I have always loved... something that I always used to sing... still do more so...

love the lyrics... the way its been sung... the visuals... everything about it makes me feel good... gives me hope... love it completely....

sometimes I think how silly it is of me.... to believe in it... to think of all this... to be like this... but then again.. I begin to realize... this is like my second skin.. this is the way I am.. this is how I feel.... this is how I love...

does everything that I feel hold no truth... is it just something that I dont realise and understand... are the people around me telling the truth... should I stop believing in myself? Should I stop believing in the one thing that I have always believed in and stood by... my self... my conscience

I wonder where the road leads .... I wonder what role I am to play....

For those who get to read this do listen to it as well....

The minds in a turmoil....

From the City of Angels....

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am



And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

In the Jungle... the mighty jungle....

A song that I had always associated with the series "Friends"..... an amazing sing-along.... can almost see Joey taking the high tone... :)

Not sure from which movie this is...but my guess would be Madagascar.... its nice... nothing too great to write about... however at the same time not something you should miss out on.... its like one of those things that you wouldnt keep going back to but would still like to have it with you....

A lifetime's story itself in it... Well here you go... hope you enjoy it...

Another all time favourite.... Guna

This is another all time favourite of mine... The song "Kanmani Anbodu" from the movie "Guna"

They say that music knows no language... and I agree... music is beyond any language...
however in this one... the language... the lyrics is music to the ears in its own... one while listening to music enjoys it even though the meaning might not be clear... but when one understands what the song means.. whats being conveyed... when the two are coupled together... its a whole new dimension... one begins to understand the devotion... the essence of the song... the music...



As Always I present the lyrics as well for those who are interested... and send me a comment or something if you are interested in knowing the meaning or essence of the song... atleast I will try to explain my interpretation of it from however much I know the language....

kanmani anboadu kaadhalan naan ezhudhum kadidhamae
ponmani un veettil soukyamaa naan ingu soukyamae
unnai ennip paarkkaiyil kavidhai sottudhu
adhai ezhudha ninaikkaiyil varththai muttudhu

(kanmani)

undaana kaayam yaavum thannaalae aarip poagum
maayam enna ponmaanae ponmaanae
enna kaayam aana poadhum en maeni thaangik kollum
undhan maeni thaangaadhu sendhaenae
endhan kaadhal ennavenru sollaamal aenga aenga azhugai vandhadhu
endhan soagam unnaith thaakkum enrennumboadhu vandha azhugai ninradhu
manidhar unarndhu kolla idhu manidhak kaadhalalla
adhaiyum thaandip punidhamaanadhu

abiraamiyae thaalaattum saamiyae naandhaanae theriyumaa
sivagaamiyae sivanil neeyum paadhiyae adhuvum unakku puriyumaa
suba laali laali laali laali
abiraami laali laali laali

The music is composed by Maestro Illayaraja sung by the versatile KamalHaasan and S. Janaki
