Young Folks - Peter Bjorn And John

Forget about song facts and info, just look it up in wiki, now, let's sing....


Here is the lyrics:

If i told you things i did before
told you how i used to be
would you go along with someone like me
if you knew my story word for word
had all of my history
would you go along with someone like me

i did before and had my share
it didn't lead nowhere
i would go along with someone like you
it doesn't matter what you did
who you were hanging with
we could stick around and see this night through

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you

usually when things has gone this far
people tend to disappear
no one will surprise me unless you do

i can tell there's something goin' on
hours seems to disappear
everyone is leaving i'm still with you

it doesn't matter what we do
where we are going too
we can stick around and see this night through

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you

and we don't care about the young folks
talkin' 'bout the young style
and we don't care about the old folks
talkin' 'bout the old style too
and we don't care about their own faults
talkin' 'bout our own style
all we care 'bout is talking
talking only me and you
talking only me and you

talking only me and you
talking only me and you

Yang Muda Berhaji

Image
Membaca buku Labbaik: Yang Muda Berhaji karya teman saya  Helman Taofani  sungguh sangat mengasyikkan. Kisah perjalanan berhaji digambarkan lewat cerita-cerita yang sarat akan pembelajaran dan perenungan. Hal ini menjadi istimewa karena disampaikan oleh "orang biasa", bukan oleh seseorang yang dikenal sebagai ustad atau kiyai. Haji adalah kewajiban setiap muslim, dengan syarat dan ketentuan berlaku. Hal ini kadang justru membuat sebagian orang menunda-nunda kemampuannya untuk b erhaji dengan segala macam alasan yang bisa dirangkum dalam dua kata: belum siap. Menarik sekali membaca Penulis bercerita bahwa kesiapannya memenuhi panggilan berhaji justru datang beberapa hari sebelum keberangkatan. Di sebuah bagian buku, Penulis bercerita tentang bagaimana dia mendapatkan jawaban dari Tuhan atas berbagai pertanyaan hidup. Tuhan berbicara kepadanya, di rumah-Nya. Saya jadi teringat ketika pertama kali saya melihat Kabah, tubuh saya bergetar, dada bergemuruh, air mata menga

11 Lagu Wajib Anak Tongkrongan Depan Gang Tahun 90'an

Image
Bagi saya, yang menghabiskan masa remaja di tahun 90'an tidak banyak hal yang bisa ditonton di TV dan tidak begitu banyak juga gadget yang bisa dimainkan selain Sega dan Nintendo. Zaman itu internet belum begitu mudah di akses seperti sekarang dan sekolah pun jam 1 atau maksimal jam 2 siang sudah bubar. Beberapa alternatif kegiatan yang dilakukan adalah nge-band bersama teman-teman atau nongkrong di depan gang. Bagi yang terlalu takut mabuk-mabukan ataupun makan pil anjing akan memilih bermain gitar sebagai pelampiasan.  Saya sangat bangga ketika baru bisa memainkan sedikit not dari lagu Don't Cry nya Guns 'N Roses, apalagi waktu menginjak chord terakhir yang membunyikan senar ke 5 sehingga nadanya adalah deng deng deng deng deng. Lagu yang dimainkan saya dulu ya itu-itu saja kadang hampir tiap hari. Demi memori masa muda, saya mencoba mengingat beberapa lagu yang populer dimainkan di Gang-gang pada era 90'an itu. 1. Always Somewhere - Scorpions (Lovedr
