This guy's sound is amazingly beautiful.. Godness sake.

I trudged along through each day in its turn, rarely looking up, eyes locked on the never-ending swamp that lay before me, planting my right foot, raising my left, planting my left foot, raising my right, never sure where I was, never sure I was headed in the right direction, knowing only that I had to keep moving, one step at a time.

-Norwegian Wood, Haruki Murakami

Time

Time could become deformed as it moved forward. Time itself was uniform in composition, but once consumed, it took on a deformed shape. One period of time might be terribly heavy and long, while another could be light and short. Occasionally the order of things could be reversed, and in the worst cases order itself could vanish entirely. Sometimes things that should not be there at all might be added onto time. By adjusting time this way to suit their own purposes, people probably adjusted the meaning of their existences. In other words, by adding such operations to time, they were able—but just barely—to preserve their own sanity. Surely, if a person had to accept the time through which he had just passed uniformly in the given order, his nerves could not bear the strain

-1Q84, Haruki Murakami.

probably the best duet of all time

"I want you always to remember me. Will you remember that I existed, and that I stood next to you here like this?"

— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood


"I still remember when you squeezed my hand in that classroom. After that I wanted to be your friend. I wanted to get to know you better. But I just couldn’t do it. There were lots of reasons for that, but the main problem was that I was a coward. I regretted it for years. I still regret it. And I think of you all the time.”
— Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

Yesterday 21st of August I joined all other Parawhores in attending Paramore's second concert in Singapore. The crowd was simply so fanatic they would do just nearly anything to push themselves in front including crushing girls, although that I'm not proud to say.

The moment Paramore stepped out from the backstage, the crowd literally went frenzy. They shouted, screamed, jumped, and pushed their way to the stage.


The entire concert was incredibly epic. The crowd were so awesome that Hayley for the second time said the crowd in Singapore is the best throughout their concerts (Hayley said that the crowd in Singapore is the best during their concert last year in Singapore) . The Swellers too convinced us that Singapore crowds are the best of all.


There was one part I missed. Halfway performing Pressure Hayley stopped and tell this to us, the audience..

"I got a question for ya. I wanna know how many people have been to a Paramore show before? *crowd responded 'Yes'* Really? Well thank you, thanks for coming back to see us. Means a lot. I guess the more important question might be.. How many of you have NEVER been to a Paramore show? *even more crowd responded 'Yes'* *Hayley coughs* Oh I have one thing I have to say to you and that is, welcome to our family. This is it, you ain't going nowhere. So uh, family, we got one more chorus of Pressure to sing and I need to know that you're gonna sing it louder than you've ever sung before. Because every night we play show and get up on stage, and I sing till I can't sing anymore I just don't have voice at the end of the night, every single night. And it is quite possibly the most frustrating and the most rewarding feeling I ever have. So I want you to lose your voices with me tonight. And when you wake up tomorrow and your friends ask you how the show was, I don't even want you to be able to tell them because you have no voice! It is so bad, your friends will just look at you like you are crazy because they don't understand, alright? When they are going to want to understand so bad, so next time we come to Singapore, they're gonna come with you and they're gonna lose their voices too. And they're gonna repeat. Are you ready to do this with us tonight? Let's warm it up Singapore, warm it right up."

After she finished her talking, she continued the chorus she hasn't sang. And I believe the audience felt as if they recovered their voices and shouted even louder than they possibly could. It was simply epic.


There is one very magical moment to me in this concert. I was just 3 people away from the stage when in the middle of one song Hayley looked at my direction for about 10 seconds (she was letting the crowd do the singing at that time) and then smiled before she looked away. THAT moment was so magical I thought time stopped for a while. It is also the third magical moment that I can remember having in my life.


There were 3 girls who was behind me all the time and kept telling me to push my way in. One of them told me this, 'keep pushing dude! there there push push! get in there!'. The girl who told me that was beside me at the end of the show while her other friends are nowhere near her.


Paramore ended the show by presenting us Misery Business from their past album, Riot. When the song ended, a ton of confetti was blown and filled the whole standing pen area with confetti. It was simply a brilliant way to end the amazing night. Thank you Paramore!

I told everybody that I will be in the front row, and there I proved what I said to them.
