Music that I can't forget

I guess everybodies' life have some official soundtrack. This whole array of songs that really sings that life. Some people, like me, have various soundtracks for different parts of their lives. Was reading through my notes during a random Spring Break day and these songs of my NSF soundtrack came back and broke the silence. [why the silence?! cos my ten bucks speaker retired prematurely.]

Its the one-third that contains angst and frustration. Pre-recorded as the 2nd half on my MD and usually i'm on the train towards Yishun or walking to the ADA camp. But more often than not, Zoe Jane sooths me down and somehow made me feel better about booking in. Music breaks into the silence when I'm alone in my small cubicle, or 2 men bunk in camp. Most of the time i live alone in the 7th floor. All stayed out, officially or riskily. Cars swooshing by on the main road. human contact seemed so near yet so far. so apt. so near yet so far.

Its the one-third thats happy. I rarely listen to happy [at least on the surface] music. Cos theres little happy alternative music out there. especially in UK. I usually associate happy music with punk[usually the band members like to take off their shorts and flash their butts i don't understand why they feel butt-cheeks are worthy of display] or bubblegum-pop. Even though I sorta only like the 1st half of the album, its charming enough to outplay any other albums i have. "Babies" "Do you remember the first time?" "lipgloss" "disco 2000" - all my favourites. Its the type of music I'm not ashamed to sing along [softly] while walking, especially "Babies".

The remaining third that makes me feel all-powerful, rebellious and at times defiant. The music will just reach out for you and make a connection to you out of nowhere when you withdraw yourself from the office politics fray, or any other remotely similar circumstances. Usually starts with the groovy bass from "Reptilia". and then comes and chorus to blow you inside out.
