Time flies so fast, its Thursday again and its Girls Talk time again.
There are actually a lot of songs that’ll make me cry for no reason at all, songs that touch a human’s emotion deep down that without you knowing it, you are wiping your eyes because you’re damn moved by the song. Among Filipino artists, I love how Erick Santos conveys his emotions through songs; he’s a real hot balladeer.
But my most favored songs of all, sorry about this ‘favorite song’ cliché, I feel like I’m signing a slum book, is this Somewhere Over The Rainbow rendition of Eva Cassidy, I love Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo’ole - the big, fat, great Hawaiian singer reggae version though but I’m more drawn and get teary-eyed with Eva’s version. I’m no cohort of Eva, just in case you ask, lol, but it’s just that even their generation’s music has influenced the generation of today.
I love the lyrics of this song, it’s full of hope, and hence, I’m sharing this to the people of Japan!
the world needs this song. it gives hope to mankind. this also reminds me of the movie Selena..
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed true girl, I know if we just have to believe we still can make it.

I love Eva Cassidy! My fave of hers is Fields of Gold. She had such a lovely warm voice. Her life story is equally sad :-(
