Happiness

Sean Lennon (L) and Julian Lennon (R)-Half Brothers

It really is difficult to live under the shadow of a legendary father. I am sure Julian and Sean Lennon feels this everyday. Despite of being the children of the great late John Lennon, both of them have shone in their own, particular way. For the last few days, I've been listening to two songs by Sean Lennon titled "Happiness" and "Spectacle". Both songs have a melancholy tone, and yet they are very, very beautiful.

Right now I am listening to the remixed version of "Time of My Life" from the movie Dirty Dancing. This incarnation was released by Black Eyed Peas, and the song title is The Time (The Dirty Bit). I am not a big fan of the genre BEP represents, but I love their songs. I love the voice of Will.I.Am. and Fergie, and yes, Will.I.Am is someone's name. 

If you've seen Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li or X-Men Origins: Wolverine, you already know Mr. Will.I.Am. He played the roles of John Wraith and Vega in those movies, subsequently. None of the characters were major, but he did a good acting job. But I must say he's a lot better singer than an actor. 

Dave Brubeck Quartret

After listening to Time of My Life for 2/3 times, now I've switched to semi-classical jazz. Right now I'm playing the first track from the album Time Out by Dave Brubeck Quartret. Right now they are playing "Blue Rondo A La Turk". 

I think it'll be a good choice to switch over to Scatman John now. What do you say?

I just started playing "Only You" from Scatman's World album, but my bossed called me to his workstation like a perfect killjoy. 

Yes, I used my ipod to listen to songs. It's an Ipod touch 8 GB model. 

Random June Blog

The 6th month of the year has just started, which means that half of the year has almost gone by. I did not really comprehend the full gravity of this fact until a facebook contact pointed it out to me yesterday. I am sure after not so long a period I will wake up from sleep and realize that another full year has gone by.

However, this year is different for me, and I have a special event (or a series of events, you can say) coming up at the end of the year. My calendar should be much occupied in September, October and November, and I finally might find some time to relax during December.

I won't get in to the details of these events, but I am very excited about the ones that will take place in November and September. 

Today I've been listening to "Nothing But The Beat" by David Guetta and "Loud" by Rihanna. These are pretty good albums, but a bit different from the stuff I usually listen to . 

Not a bad way to start the month of June, is it?
