and there she was, at West 54th Street

There is this great Indonesian singer, who is well-known around the world (i suppose) since she decided to move to France and live there. Her name is Anggun, her voice amazed me every single time. Clearly that her voice is not just the same as other’s, she has this unique tone inside her voice. Each and everytime she sings, I always feel as if she told us to shut up and listen, her eyes are sharp and it goes through your brain and heart. Her face is exotically beautiful. And there she was, singing at West 54th Street, USA. Well, how many Indonesian singer has been there? Yahaa..not much. 😛

Very proud of her, I hope I can see her live in Paris next time. 😉

Kuharap mentari pagi, tak menyambutku
Kuharap sinar rembulan, tutup mataku… selamanya
Sejak kau pergi, tinggalkan bumi, tinggalku di sini
Turunkan matahari
Usir bintang-bintang
Shun the stars away
Putarkan utara ke selatan
Untuk apa lagi semuanya
Ambillah jiwa retak ini, ku tak ingin lagi
Putuskan ari-ari bumi, aku ingin pergi
Menuju abadi…selamanya

by the way, this video is old, of you want to see her new performances please just go to Youtube. hehehe.

Glenn Fredly

Buat temen-temen yang juga sekarang sedang tinggal di Belanda dan sekitarnya, mungkin bakalan seneng karena bakalan ada konser yang bisa ngobatin rasa kangen sama Indonesia. Kalau di Belanda, tiap tahun udah jelas ada Pasar Malam Besar di Den Haag (yang bener-bener bikin kita berasa ada di Indonesia tercinta) tapi tahun ini, ada 2 artist kenamaan yang bakalan konser juga di sini. Bulan April ini, bakalan ada Glenn Fredly dan bulan Mei bakalan ada SLANK!!!

Nahh..buat Glenn Fredly, saya juga udah beli tiket. Saya dan Mbak Shaula (juga bersama 2 teman dari Jerman) akan nonton konser Glenn di Den Haag. Tiketnya lumayan juga sih ya buat ukuran artist Indo (20 euro), tapi mungkin buat nutupin ongkos dari Indo ke sini. hehehehe.

Ini salah satu lagu yang mungkin easy listening, catchy, dan bakalan dibawain sama glenn nanti. Kalau-kalau mau ngapalin dulu biar nanti bisa nyanyi bareng sama glenn, silahkan. haha.

cruising when the sun goes down
i cross the sea
searching for something inside of me

i would find all the lost pieces
hardly feel deep in real
i was blinded now i see

* hey hey hey you're the one
  hey hey hey you're the one
  hey hey hey i can't live without you

reff:	take me to your place
	where our heart belongs together
	i will follow you
	'coz you're the reason that i breath

	i'll come running to you
	fill me with your love forever
	promise you one thing
	that i would never let you go
	'coz you are my everything

you're the one, you're my inspiration
you're the one kiss, you're the one
you're the light that would keep me safe and warm
you're the one kiss, you're the one
like the sun goes down coming from above all
to the deepest ocean and highest mountain
deep and real deeep i can see now

repeat *
repeat reff
