this is how much i miss her~

the song that i am currently humming to..

99 Problems - Jay-Z

If you're havin' girl problems i feel bad for you son

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

[Verse One]

I got the rap patrol on the gat patrol

Foes that wanna make sure my casket's closed

Rap critics they say he's "Money Cash Hoes"

I'm from the hood stupid, what type of facts are those

If you grew up with holes in ya zapatos

You'd be celebrating the minute you was havin' dough

I'm like fuck critics you can kiss my whole asshole

If you don't like my lyrics you can press fast forward

I got beef with radio if i don't play they show

They don't play my hits i don't give a shit SO

Rap mags try and use my black ass

So advertisers can give 'em more cash for ads, fuckers

I don't know what you take me as,

Or understand the intelligence that Jay-Z has

I'm from rags to ritches niggas I ain't dumb

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

Hit me

[Chorus]

99 problems but the bitch aint one

If you're havin' girl problems i feel bad for you son

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

Hit me

[Verse Two]

The year's '94 and my trunk is raw

In my rear view mirror is the mother fuckin' law

I got two choices y'all pull over the car or (hmmm)

Bounce on the double put the pedal to the floor

Now I ain't tryin' to see no highway chase with Jay.

Plus i got a few dollars i can fight the case

So I...pull over to the side of the road

I heard "Son do you know why I'm stoppin' you for?"

Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hats real low?

Do I look like a mind reader sir, I don't know

Am I under arrest or should I guess some mo'?

"Well you was doin fifty-five in a fifty-fo' "

"Liscense and registration and step out of the car"

"Are you carryin' a weapon on you I know a lot of you are"

I ain't steppin out of shit all my paper's legit

"Well, do you mind if I look round the car a little bit?"

Well my glove compartment is locked so are the trunk in the back

And I know my rights so you gon' need a warrant for that

"Aren't you sharp as a tack, you some type of lawyer or something'?"

"Or somebody important or somethin'?"

Nah, I ain't pass the bar but i know a little bit

Enough that you won't illegally search my shit

"We'll see how smart you are when the K9 come"

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

Hit me

[Chorus]

99 Problems but a bitch ain't one

if you havin girl problems

i feel bad for you son

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one hit me

99 Problems but a bitch ain't one

if you havin girl problems

i feel bad for you son

I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

Hit me

[Verse Three]

Now once upon a time not too long ago

A nigga like myself had to strong arm a hoe

This is not a hoe in the sense of havin a pussy

But a pussy havin no God Damn sense, try and push me

I tried to ignore him and talk to the Lord

Pray for him, cause some fools just love to perform

You know the type loud as a motor bike

But wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight

The only thing that's gonna happen is I'ma get to clappin

He and his boys gon be yappin to the captain

And there I go trapped in the kit kat again

Back through the system with the riff raff again

Fiends on the floor scratchin again

paparazzi's with they cameras snappin them

D.A. tried to give the nigga shaft again

Half-a-mil for bail cause I'm African

All because this fool was harrasin' them

Tryin to play the boy like hes saccarin

But ain't nothin sweet 'bout how I hold my gun

I got 99 problems being a bitch ain't one.

Hit me

[Chorus X3]

You're crazy for this one Rick

It's your boy

good old ...

Its that time of the month again... no, not THAT time of the month you silly... it’s the good old love ballad time of the month. Usually every month, I would find myself revisiting the love songs from 90’ and older, be it Celine Dion’s, Bryan Adams’, or even those songs from 70’s. It’s just the way for me to release my inner passion towards music without blowing my vocal cord out. And in the privacy of my own room, or should I say my own house... (Gawd, my voice’s so loud; I wonder why my housemates haven’t gone insane yet… huhu).

I could sing these songs for hours for the whole weekend. I could even go so far as to download these songs and its music video just for the pleasure of being able to sing to the tune. Hmm... Come to think of it. I am mad aren’t I. downloading songs from those decades where I wasn’t even born yet. Still, I took pleasure in just simply listening to them and maybe to the extend of singing along to the beat. Crazy I know but that is who I am, mate.

Oh, not to be forgotten. Another significant genre to me that not even my parents would be caught dead listening to it is classical. Songbirds like Andrea Bocelli, Luciano Pavarotti and Sarah Brightman (just to name a few) really makes my hair stand on its end. I might be what people call, person from the Generation Y, but then my appetite for music can only be satisfied by songs from the decades that are behind me.

In conclusion (now I sound like my lecturer...), well, I don’t have a conclusion. At least, yet. Let’s just say, I like listening to all kinds of music. But I do have some times when I’d prefer listening to particular genre just to reflect upon my past and savour the memory. So, yes, I am an oldie as you might be call your parents here in Oz but then I find that music from the past is much much more soothing that the fast paced rhythm we have right now. No offence intended since I do love listening to songstress like Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and Drake. It’s just that most of the times; they do not calm my hectic life as those ancient songs can do.

So there you have it, another meaningless blabbering post from an almost insane international student in Down Under. Period.

citizens of the world's piece of mind, voiced by MJ

RIP MJ. i grew up listening to his voice and dancing to his music. now that i no longer will have the chance to dance to his new songs, guess i had to make do with what i have all this while. one song that really caught my attention is this one.as the title of this post suggested, no word could describe his tribute to us.



"They Don't Care About Us"

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody's gone mad

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don't you black or white me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
Set me free

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
trepidation, speculation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
black man, black male
Throw your brother in jail

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't wanna see
But if Roosevelt was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation
Everybody litigation
Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

Some things in life they just don't wanna see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Kick me, strike me
Don't you wrong or right me

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us

All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
