Understanding Art: Prologue

Marhaban bikum (that's hello in arabic, kind of)

Jiggling here and there, i found out that i was unable to think of anything to write for the time being. Sachilya ('actually' in Korean Language) i was thinking of sharing several tips on how to analyse a song. Still, such interesting topic needed a few things to be considered and myself is not that prepared to jot down lengthy words for the time being.

Maybe perhaps i should share something a bit more light, not to say that light, or light itself, maybe a prologue about how to analyse the song.

It is as if a nature kind of thing when human being listen to songs or music and get attracted to it. Yes, and i would agree on that very much. How the song enlighten your gloomy day, enhance your happiness, provoke negative emotions and other effects songs and music have to human is one of a few reason why certain aspects about these two should be taken into consideration. Perhaps not towards a very scrutinize consideration, but just enough with having a thought about it.

Okay today i would like to share an OST (Original Sound Track) of a famous drama series (Korean Drama) entitled Boys Before Flowers or some translated it Boys Over Flowers. Let's take a look at the lyrics, (for the prologue purpose, i include only an english version of this song, taken from youtube.com)

'Because I'm Stupid'

Because i'm so stupid and such a fool,
my eyes don't see nobody but you,
eventhough i know you love someone else,
You could never know the pain that i felt, ohh...

You probably never think of me at all,
and i know we have no memories,
but the one who really wants you is me,
in the end only my tears will fall

I stay, you walk away,
i stand back watching you day by day
you can't see that i'm so in love with you,
like the wind you just fly right through, ohh...

(chorus 1)
There are days when i just miss you so much
there are days when i just long for your touch
'i love you' somehow flies right off my lips and so,
once again, i'm left crying for you
once again, i'm left here missing you
baby, i love you, i'm waiting for you

You'll probably have never dream of me,
and i know i'm in love all alone
that's why we don't really have memories,
in the end, i'l make them on my own

love's like a river of tears,
that will flow whenever you're not here
eventhough your heart will never be mine,
it's enough just seeing you smile, ohh...

(chorus 2)
there are days when i see nothing but rain,
there are days when i feel so much pain,
'i miss you' somehow flies right off my lips and so,
once again, i'm left wishing for you,
once again, i'm left here missing you,
baby, i love you, i'm waiting for you

Bye, bye never say goodbye,
Eventhough its not me by your side,
i need you, i just can't say it but i want you,
i cannot stop wishing for you

there are days when i just miss you so much
there are days when i just long for your touch
i love you' somehow flies right off my lips and so,
once again i'm left crying for you

repeat chorus 2

just try to observe the lyrisc first. Later i'll share with you you guys my personal view about this song particularly and songs and music in general context. i wish to include the audio but some technical problem occur, but to those who know the tune, do enjoy yourself with it.

we've done 'goodbyes' in Hangu Go and Nihon, for today let's end it in French, Au revoire.
