When I was in second year high school, or last year, I learned to play the guitar. But with myself being a fickle minded person, I got bored of it. Maybe, I'll just leave the guitar playing to Char. Usually, I lose interests in things pretty fast, even though in the beginning I'd even beg just to have that thing. Moving on, as I reminisce about my guitar playing days, this was the only song whose chords I can remember! My teacher, Sir Chris from Yamaha School of Music, told me that these chords were the easiest. So this is probably the reason why this is the only song whose chords I can remember. How typical of me.

I have now realized that when I first hear a song, I don't really understand the lyrics, but I listen to the beat and melody more. I guess it's because my the tempo of the song actually affects my mood. Sometimes, I fear the media. Its effects are too powerful for me too handle. A simple song can make you like a movie. Media practitioners really know how to hook, line and sinker the audience and since we are the audience who are in comparison like fishes, most of us hungry for that worm fall for it.
