New Year/Awal Muharram Anthem

Friends, hear me out. Loud and clear....

I Am Changing - Jennifer Hudson (with vocal assistance by Mus)

Look at me,
Look at me I am changing
Trying every way I can
I am changing I'll be better than I am
I'm trying to find a way to understand
But I need you, I need you I need a hand

I am changing
Seeing everything so clear
I am changing I'm gonna start right now, right here
I'm hoping to work it out
And I know that I can
But I need you, I need a hand

All of my life I've been a fool
Who said I can do it on my own
How many good friends have I already lost?
How many dog nights have I known?
Walking down that wrong road
There was nothing I could find
All those years of darkness
Looking for some light
But now I can see

I am changing
Trying every way I can
I am changing
I'll be better than I am
But I need a friend
To help me start all over again
That would be just fine
I know it's gonna work out this time
'Cause this time I am
This time I am

I am changing
I'll get my life together now
I am changing
Yes I know how I'm gonna start again
I'm gonna leave my past behind
I'll change my life
I'll make a vow and nothings gonna stop me now

Don't you think it will make a great New Year/Awal Muharram anthem? I have got a long list of things to achieve this year, so I might as well sing my heart out through it. Plus, the more I hear the song, the more I convince it sings about my life.

Come to think of it, it would be a much "soulful" version, had I added some jazz and soul, stamped my name all over it and made it my own. Ahh..how I wish for that!

OK I think I'll put that in my list too.

Kan... Berangan bagai. Aku rasa mesti meletop kalau kau buat album tu. Yes.. meletup radio yang memasang lagu ituh...

Anyway, blog aku dah di 'public' kan. And maybe less writing but more comic strips. Enjoy. Dah hapdate ok. Singgah la.

Lama tak juma ngko.
Take care.
