Isi Jalan

I find it fascinating how an idea comes about. Like how the show Entourage is loosely based on the career of their executive producer Mark Wahlberg and I bet you that some of The Beatles's songs was inspired after smoking some herbal cigarettes. Ha ha.

I'm here to share with you, yes the two of you, how I came about having a not so long story made here in this blog. I wrote it , like many other post before it, with past stories in mind, a bunch of fantasies with music as my driving force for the flow of the story. So here I'm posting the songs I had listened to when I wrote that damn thing. Just for you to understand it better? and because its my blog.

Heh.

Dah macam soundtrack plak. But no worries. Like I'd care that much. So if you do not know any one of the songs and would like to listen to 'em please youtube them. I do not condone the act of piracy. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. I cried myself in laughter jap tadi.

To those who have any other songs that would go with the story please leave it in the comment box. Ha ha ha.

I haven't been able to find the songs mentioned as it might not have been in their albums..(ya,saya lebih pada full album dan bukan eps or singles)
so i have yet to relate the song to the story..tapi tidak mengapa, saya akan berusaha lagi! ha ha ha...

if all else fails i might go to the 'darkside' (bagaikan penukaran visi si Bob Kane ke Frank Miller)..ha ha ha..

theroyalcrapster said...

well the song would definitely suit best to be somewhere right before the ending, or maybe after mraz's, when it all seems to much to take in. and you decide to end it all in the midst..hence, lyrically, metaphorically and literally the title "suicide medicine". haha, such a morbid take on life.

and yeah, the guy's not typically popular, so you're welcome to cross over to the dark side anytime bebeh.

to me the ending was not something tragic. I visualized it as what life would have been. When i hear the lyrics to halfway home i imagine that life is the mid point. She (Daisy) is halfway home. but thats what i invisioned la. This is what i like about interactions. people perceive different things differently.my vision of the ending doesn't mean im right or wrong or anyone else for that matter. Thank you for your views and songlist. I will try to look at it from your perspective after hearing the song (ya, saya masih berusaha)..haha..

p/s: i have a very cheesy story in mind...even cheesier than this (5km)...whether i have the will to do it is sooo a different thing..haha

theroyalcrapster said...

believe it or not, i have halfway home on my itunes top 25 most played. hehe. people are more similar than they thought they would be, or even more than they actually want to be :p

anyways, i agree on the point of that song being in the mid. i think probably people live and experience the same things in their life; it's just a matter of time, and how they end it.

so the ending does matter..a lot. having said that, choose your finale song wisely. hahaha.

well, let's hear your cheesy story!

Zulhilmi said...

Sounds like a death threat..haha..

ya, mungkin bila ada masa..although theres lots of it masa itu bermaksud masa terasa nak buat..haha
