When Andre Harihandoyo and Sonic People are back!

It's been so long since the last time I watched their performance. It's so good to see them back on stage.

when: Saturday, 11 February 2017
where: Institut Francais d'Indonesie
who: Andre Harihandoyo and Sonic People 
brought to us by: konserku

When I realize that I'm just too scared to start all of this

my nowadays playlists.

There are moments when I don't know if it's real or if anybody feels the way I feel. I need inspiration, not just another negotiation. And if I open my heart again, I'm hoping you help me to start again. You know that I'll be there for you in the end.

Way Back Into Love - Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett

I've broken my heart so many times, I stopped keeping track. I get all worked up, then I let my self down. But, I know someday, that it'll all turn out. You'll make me work so we can work to work it out. And I promise you that I give so much more than I get.

Haven't Met You Yet - Michael Buble

I'm fighting a war that I can't never win. I can't fight this feeling, it's rushing through my heart. Don't ever make it stop, it's tearing me apart. Please don't let me fade away. I am surrender.

Surrender - Bondan Rastika

this is the original one from Rihanna.

BUT

in my opinion, these covers are better than the original. sorry, riri. :p

by Conor Maynard

by BoyceAvenue

by Mike Tompkins

the song is sweet. but sweeter when a guy sing it for you.

my fave is the second one, cover by Boyce Avenue.

reasons? maybe there is a guitar and a nice lyric. hehehe. you know me, don't you? :p

so, tell me which one is your favorite.

maaf, saya khilaf sudah lama tidak ngepost

hey. sudah lama tidak menulis nih. maaf ya blog. uhmm jadi sekarang saya bingung harus memulai dari mana *seperti biasa xD uhmmm let me see..

terakhir post saya itu tentang sidang seminar proposal kan yak. okei, sidang proposal UTS saya berjalan dengan baik. saya mendapat banyak masukan. setelah banyak potong sana potong sini hal2 yang tidak relevan dengan penelitian saya, dosen penguji saya berkata: "oke, setelah hal2 gak penting itu dibuang, you're ready to go!" ketika saya mendengar ini, saya tidak dapat berhenti tersenyum! :D

uhmm berikutnya apa lagi ya.. ini agak tidak penting sih, hari ini (11-10-2010) Mandy (my beloved blekberi) tepat berumur satu bulan. sudah satu bulan kamu menemani saya loh! saya lebih irit pulsa berkat kamu. smooch*

ohiya, bloggie, kemarin itu saya sempat dapat kesempatan MC formal acara lomba paduan suara dan karawitan jawa loh di kampus. dan saya harus mengenakan kebaya, rok batik, sanggul, dan make up. dengan kustom seperti itu dan lengkap dengan iringan karawitan, saya berasa mau dipersunting raja2 jawa kuno -________- saya harus mengucapkan gelar-gelar tamu kehormatan yang panjang dalam satu napas. wow. it was a very priceless moment! :D

uhmmm ini agak telat sih, tapi gakpapa deh. download yah single terbarunya Bondan Rastika - Not in Love di http://notinlove.bondanrastika.com lansung aja di donlod. dijamin langsung not in love deh! :p

see you, soon!

Where the big blue sky collapse

Adhitia Sofyan - Blue Sky Collapse

As I walk to the end of the line
I wonder if I should look back
To all of the things that were said and done
I think we should talk it over

Then I noticed the sign on your back
It boldly says try to walk away
I go on pretending I’ll be ok
This morning it hits me hard that

Still everyday I think about you
I know for a fact that’s not your problem
But if you change your mind you’ll find me
Hanging on to the place
Where the big blue sky collapse

As I stare at the wall in this room
The cracks they resemble your shadow
When everyday I see time goes by
In my head everything stood still

I’m waiting for things to unfreeze
Till you release me from the ice block
It’s been floating for ages washed up by the sea
And it’s drowning, thought you should know that

You see people are trying
To find their way back home
So I’ll find my way to you

ps: hey, you. still wondering why you choose this song. anyway, it was pretty. thanks for covering this song on my birthday.

When you love someone

sebelum baca post ini, mungkin ada baiknya jika anda mendengarkan When You Love Someone nya Endah n Rhesa dan menyimak kata-katanya. uhm atau mau lebih gampang si, search aja di google untuk liriknya. hehe.

saya tidak lagi jatuh cinta. tapi untuk orang-orang yang sedang jatuh cinta, khususnya mereka yang jatuh cinta diam-diam (ups) lagu EnR itu sih sangat memotivasi untuk menyatakan perasaan. tapiiii pada kenyataan nya gak semudah itu kan?

kalo orang yang lo taksir itu sebenernya juga naksir lo balik mah gak masalah. malah bagus dong. lo suka, dia suka, lo bilang suka, dia seneng, lo seneng, jadian deh. simple dan (semoga) hepi ending.

nah, kalo orang yang lo taksir itu bahkan tidak tahu sama sekali keberadaan lo, bahkan gak tau nama lo, masa tiba2 lo bilang "hai, selama ini gue selalu memperhatikan lo. gue suka ama lo. pacaran yuk." (okei, emang gak sesimpel ini sih, tapi intinya gitu deh :p) bisa-bisa lo disangka pervert yang selama ini ngikutin dia dari jauh, poto dia diam2, dan hal aneh lainnya yang bisa dituduhkan kepada lo.

dan yang paling ribet *menurut saya* adalah ketika lo suka ama orang yang selama ini temen main lo atau bahkan sahabat lo sendiri. nah loh. okei kalo lo suka dan dia juga suka, jadian lah kalian dengan bahagia dan bisa deh bersenandung "lucky i'm in love with my best friend" nya Jason Mraz dan Colbie Caillat. :p nah kalo ternyata dia cuma nganggep lo gak lebih dari teman/sahabat? bisa-bisa hubungan pertemanan yang kalian bina bisa hancur atau paling enggak berjarak lah akibat "aku suka kamu. pacaran yuk." nah loh.

saya tidak membenci lagu ini. saya malah menyukainya. seperti yang tadi saya bilang, lagu ini (juga pernah) memotivasi saya. he he he. tapi ya tadi itu. saya rasa, enggak semudah dan se-happy ending itu deh. masih banyak yang harus dipertimbangkan toh?

just like they said:

"I love you but it's not so easy to make you here with me."

Coco Papa Lala Dada

enjoy (:



***


in my opinion, this song is a mood-booster. haha. walaupun awalnya saya tidak bisa men-download file mp3 dan hanya bisa menikmati via web nya sambil membaca Marmut Merah Jambu nya Raditya Dika, tapi saya suka sama Coco Papa Lala Dada ini. enggak usah ba-bi-bu-ba-bi-bu, langsung aja download deh! gak akan menyesal :p

Menyusup ke Depok

kamis kemarin, saya menyusup ke Fakultas Psikologi Universitas Indonesia untuk melihat Dapur, acara yang diperuntukkan bagi para wisudawan-wisudawati yang baru saja diwisuda paginya. acaranya berupa apresiasi seni musik hiburan gitu. seru deh. kayaknya saya pernah nge-post ttg dapur juga de.


saya agak lupa dengan tema dapur kali ini. intinya kayak 'homey' gitu deh. maaf ya saya lupa redaksionalnya.


ini mahasiswa barunya. mereka gokil.

ini penampilan psikusi. mantap. cewek2 cantik berkustom macam2 main perkusi? mantap! itu yang kustom dokter itu temen saya tuh! :p

it's Bonita & the HusBand. tidak bisa berkata apa2. suara mbak Bonita itu sangat enak didengar. halus bagai sutera *perumpamaan yg tidak tepat* :p intinya: wow!

it's cozy street corner. sempet bawain lagunya John Mayer *kalo gaksalah sih* tapi di aransemen ulang. okai deh. saya tidak lihat full. soalnya saya jajan di kantin :p

perkenalkan: Sugarfree. suara vox nya mantap!!!! *daritadi ngomong mantap nih. mereka mainin lagu "esok kan masih ada" dan sedihnya lagi, vokalisnya bilang kalo di dapur ini adalah penampilan terakhir sugarfree. dengan kata lain, abis ini mereka bubar. sedih ya ;'(


dan ada Bondan Rastika. ihiiiiy. tetep bawain JM's dan tembang2 lawas miliknya sendiri. sayang tidak bawain lagu "mau dibawa kemana" hehe. sayang Bondan lagi kurang enak bodi. tapi tetep asik pas manggung. ihiiiey..
overall, semua asik. crowd nya, artist nya, cuacanya juga mendukung (adem dan berangin). sayang ada satu hal kecil namun krusial: masalah SOUND. kualitas sound,mixer, dll yang saya tidak mengerti itu cukup mengganggu dengan memberikan efek "nginnng" atau "ngungggg" atau membuat suara jadi cempreng. masalah pencahayaan juga jadi gelap. artist nya jadi gak keliatan dan saya jadi tidak bisa mengambil poto dengan leluasa deh.

yah, selamat buat panitia Dapur ini :D senang saya bisa hadir *walaupun harus bolos kuliah nih!*

When Mike's Apartment hit MTA

let me introduce:

Mike's Apartment

4 guys in 1 band, a really goooooood band. They usually play 90's playlist and popular song. But check out their song called "Alay Song" here. So funny, amusing, ear-catching, and nice. I am a fan now!

When I enjoy their music, live

what: Andre Harihandoyo and Sonic People gig
where: Loca Coffee Plus, Kemang
when: Wednesday, April 14 2010
how: awesome, as always. they played some nirvana's, poker face - lady gaga, some original songs of them, and else. Too bad I left the gig after the break up song :( this is the second one I watched their gig live at Loca and never stay until the last song. I'm sure there will be another time for me.

but
feel free to find more of the band here :)

When you say those three little words, I will smile

can I get some of Gabe Bondoc?
the way he waves and says hello at the beginning of his video
his giggling-voice in the middle of the song
the way he stares, just like he sings it for me. only me :p
his sweet smile
the way he covers other songs
his soothing voice
just the way he is

please, let me get some of Gabe Bondoc :p

I already watched Audrey Hepburn's Breakfast at Tiffany's. It's an old story. But I kinda like it. I'm not a fashion follower addict, but I love Audrey Hepburn's style, especially for her eyes. so pretty.

see, her eyes hypnotized me :p

so classy


***


and, in this movie, Audrey Hepburn performed one song called Moon River. I feel a deep sentimental value while she sang it. enjoy :)

When I make it easy as 1,2,3,4

friday night, nana and I slept over at angel's house. we shared so many things. friendship, boys, and just laughing out loud. around 1 AM, we ate that conello with disc chocolate ice cream.

I had my besties, had a quality time, and had an chocolate ice cream.
it's a perfect slept over right? :p

***

recently, I listen to 1 2 3 4 by Plain White T's. for me, it is sweet, simple, and just the way it is.

some of the words from that song:

Give me more loving than I’ve ever had
Make me feel better when I’m feeling sad
Tell me I’m special even though I know I’m not
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1-2, 1-2-3-4
There’s only one thing to do
Three words for you
I love you.. I love you

***

When something's telling me it might be you

I found the song for this February.
Something's beautiful. Something's sweet.
Something that can telling me it might be you.

***


sweet, isn't it?



***


it might be you :)

When I'm singing in the rain

Malam minggu kemarin, saya 'diculik' teman saya ke Depok. tepatnya ke acara Dapur in Flames Fakultas Psikologi Universitas Indonesia. jadi ada acara yang dipersembahkan untuk para wisudawan dan wisudawati yang baru saja wisuda pagi harinya.

acaranya itu seperti pentas musik. dimeriahkan oleh Meilto, Bonita, Bondan Rastika, dosen2 Fakultas Psikologi UI (ada mas Lito yang ternyata pemain saxophone ---> selama ini saya taunya beliau adalah pengarang buku..) dan masih banyak penampilan antar angkatan yang keren2. Saya suka dengan penampilan Psikusi.. isinya wanita-wanita semua yang menabuh drum hingga galon air. apalagi dresscode mereka kemarin itu metal. so energetic!

sayang malam itu hujan nya rintik-rintik cantik mengarah kencang, jadi becek-becek basahkuyub gitu deh. ha ha ha.. tapii dekorasi nya yang dibuat outdoor dilengkapi dengan lampu-lampu warna-warni dan api dari obor (yang biasanya saya lihat kalau cuma Psycamp :p) membuat suasana malam itu jadi gimanaaa gitu :p udah dingin, lagu-lagu yang dimainkan juga kebanyakan lagu 'manis'.. haha

anyway, dari semua performer yang ada di Dapur in Flames, saya suka dengan Bondan Rastika. senjatanya suara dan gitar. sekilas saya kira akan seperti sonic people, tapi berbeda sedikit deh. hehehe. coba klik di sini untuk mendengarkan musiknya. saya suka dengan not in love karena liriknya yang catchy dan 'menampar'. juga ada satu lagu judulnya stop the time. yah silakan dengarkanlah sendiri sebelum saya mulai berkoar-koar :p


***


kurang lebih suasananya begini deh. syahdu.

Bonita, suaranya dahsyat seperti yg Sadie di Across the Universe itu loh

Psikusi

Bondan Rastika, sempat memainkan Comfortable-nya JM

ingin masuk UI jadinya :p

Here comes my man

kriteria baru dalam mencari pasangan hidup:
harus tampak bagus, keren, gentle, ganteng, dan manis dalam mengenakan tuxedo semacam itulah.

jadi, mulai sekarang cari pacar itu di toko jas atau toko bahan (yang jual biasanya itu orang India) wakakaka :DD

dodol ah.

song for today is Here Comes Your Man by Pixie

when it comes to "I need a story, a lousy one."

I had a little chit-chat with one of my best friend. and the topic was love. not in a father-and-son-love love but in a I-love-you-and-I-want-to-be-your-boy/girlfriend-love love. when it comes to love, I don't really know how to react, how to make a move, or else. I think, I forget what it feels when I am in love with somebody.


I think, I need a lousy love story.

***


anyway, I found this movie, When In Rome while i was blogwalking. just see the trailer and maybe you'll like it, like i do.


tagline: Did you ever wish for the impossible?


***


and, I think this song will be perfect for this night.

and love, such a silly game we played
like a summer day in May
What is love, what is love?
I just want you to be loved

Love by Matt White

I used too much "thinking" in this post. I really need a lousy love story.

Please, please, please, let me get what I want

So for once in my life let me get what I want
Lord knows, it would be the first time
So please let me get what I want this time
