your typical metalhead next-door neighbour with a tendency to unknowingly bring down his estate whilst fingering his trusty handmaiden, an SA Series Ibanez. tamed by coke, iced lemon tea and coffee, its always a good idea to drop him a cuppa(s). currently doing odd jobs and enjoying his last 5 months of freedom before uni starts and he is forced to join the terrible world of working-class-adulthood. he is also madly in love with this beautiful woman, rachel chang ya hui, whom he met qutie awhile back but never had the fate to be together with till oct 2010 (circa).

     Here's an awesome video for the below-mentioned song.
And here's a credible documentation for the song!

it's an amazing song honestly. to me, it's about the 'fire' in all of us that keeps the human race doing crazy things, celebrating great occasions, making new discoveries, fighting impossible fights, composing phenomenal music etc. it's the innate will to be great/be remembered deep inside us that has manisfested in individuals and phenomenons named in the song, and which is also put down by many, many laypeople. just like how when a kid says he wants to be president and his parents tell him not to be silly and politics are for sophisticated people. this song feels like it's for all these people. this 'fire' could also mean the fire of life, like something all of us share, all of us possess, that keeps the world the way it is - full of crazy things. i don't know if you can imagine what i am, but if you can, isn't it such an amazing song? it's inspirational despite it's beat and social status.

honestly, the song created a kind of concept, about this world's 'fire'. check out the videos for different time periods and the lyrics. after this song was born, it inspired people to think about the great events and happenings of different time periods. really wondered what inspired billy joel to write such a song. and lastly, did you know the song is banned in Singapore. because of references to certain people or events (of which i am not exactly sure). if you go youtube and search for this song, all original recordings of the song are muted out. only live shows are available. such is the extent of this song. go research on it, it's too phenomenal to be described in words.

Billy Joel - We Didn't Start The Fire
We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No we didn't light it

we hate to MOVE IT, MOVE IT.
     and yet another opening article adapted from the story of Twilight and the Thousand Other Fantasy Stories. in this latest article, humour (or rumour) has it that vampires drink orange juice. a petrified employee of orange julius was quoted saying "he just looked at me with those orange eyes, and then, i had no choice. i gave him a cup of orange!". orange julius CEO said that he was launching a personal vendetta against vampires as they were causing his profits to dip.

this linking passage links us to linkin park which is somewhere in my CD rack. "what a nice park," leonardo da vinci had said himself. "its full of dog shit and... eww whats this? spagetthi filled with pieces of dark flakes... ooo, wait, senor! its... chocolate. si si... si penne? no no... si fusilli." pavarotti reportedly slapped him after that for mixing up his favourite pasta.
