My 2 most favoritist anime intros

Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 at 11:39 am

I caught up on House a couple days ago…rewatched all 7 seasons. I’m not doing that again…it was fun the first time. Tedious the second. And I won’t rewatch it ever again. That’s not to say I won’t watch some episodes…but yeah, House isn’t something you re-watch.

Since I caught up on House, I’ve been watching some anime….Gundam Seed Character Theater, which I apparently missed for years. And that led me to start listening to anime music again. I haven’t been lately…I’ve been doing radio and pop music. As I went through my anime intro list…these two songs still resonate with me as the ones I can never get tired of. I love Gundam Seed Destiny Opening 1, and other Gundam Seed Intros…I like some Naruto ones…but these two just hold a special spot on my list. I get this…intense feeling of incoming epicness when I listen to Clannad and I get a tranquil feeling of serenity when I listen to Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu?. Anyways, just thought I’d re-post so I can listen to them easier at work :)

Clannad After Story (Season 2)

Full Metal Panic! Fumoffu?

Daily Randomness…a no point post. But good music.

D-Arts Zero became available for pre-order today…so guess what I did ;)

Which led me to start singing this song (also my iPhone ringtone)
Megaman 9 – Intro Theme

Which led me to start singing this song (they’re kinda similar)
BoA – Valenti (JAP)

Which led me to start YouTubing BoA Videos
BoA – Waiting (JAP)

BoA – Jewel Song (JAP)

I used to like BoA so much in early university…her old music still holds up I find….haven’t heard any of her new stuff but I don’t imagine I’d like it. Artists have to evolve to stay current, despite that fans enjoy what made them popular in the first place. People want and expect something new but complain when the style is different from what they’re used to. People are such idiots.

Anyways…will write more tonight…maybe

Portal Endings Music

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011 at 12:29 am

*SPOILER ALERT*

Portal and Portal 2 Endings.

Absolutely love both songs. Nothing more to say…I basically just posted this so that I don’t have to keep 2 tabs open on my browser all the time.

Singing Contest

Wednesday, March 16th, 2011 at 9:46 pm

I recently tweeted:

No1 at the office means I can sing aloud w/o fear of sounding terrible, which I most certainly do. If the monitors could shatter, they would

I love to sing. But I’m also quite bad at it. Not terribad, but bad.

Anyways, my friends in highschool and I used to have an N’CHYNK group (…like N’SYNC…but chinese). Like, it wasn’t an “official” group, we never officially preformed, but there were 6 or 7 guys who enjoyed singing occasionally.

Anyways, I lived with 3 of them in UWaterloo first or second year. One time, we had our old highschool friends come visit from Toronto and we were kinda bored and trash talking each other, and decided to have a singing contest.

It was best of 3 songs, me VS my friend. I chose a song, he chose a song, and the judges chose a song…I lost 1-2 and while I don’t remember what songs I lost to, the one I won to was:

Don’t Wanna Lose You Now – Backstreet Boys

As I’m singing to myself, quietly, I was just reminded of this moment and thought I’d write about it.

On another note, the song above has always been a favorite of mine. It’s probably my favorite non-single from the good ol’ pop days.

/back to work but might write more tonight and this wasn’t my intended post for today…

The Mixed Tape

Saturday, November 6th, 2010 at 12:39 am

Jack’s Mannequin – The Mixed Tape

Where are you now?
As I’m swimming through the stereo
I’m writing you a symphony of sound
Where are you now?
As I rearrange the songs again
This mix could burn a hole in anyone
But it was you I was thinking of

I don’t know, something about this song and it’s discussion of a making a mixed tape has reminded me of various songs which I associate with people I’ve liked or have liked me (or both). And I’m wondering “Where are you now?”. I have no idea where the majority of them are or what they’re doing. There are few I keep in touch with, some I have as friends on Facebook but don’t talk to ever…and it’s odd because again, spending/talking to someone, enough that there’s a one-way or two-sided attraction….and then down the road, there’s nothing except a memory. I mean, people change but at some point, there’s a moment in both these people where a romantic relationship exists. Is it that difficult to have and maintain a lifelong romantic relationship with someone? Some people find that connection early, some people find it later, and some never find it at all. But at some point, I hope everyone in their life experiences that potential for a lifelong romantic relationship. The feeling of liking someone and having that feeling reciprocated…is awesome.

Wow, I just started randomly listening to another song…which happens to relate specifically to what I’m writing about….well, the start of the song:

Backstreet Boys – I Still…

Who are you now?
Are you still the same
Or did you change somehow?
What do you do?
At this very moment
When I think of you
And when I’m looking back
How we were young and stupid
Do you remember that?

/remembering the past…and smiling at how young and stupid i used to be…
