Day 1- My Favourite Song

I seriously can't be bias to only one favourite song. If a person knew me well, they'll know that I kept changing my favourite song every month. I decided to breakdown my list of favourite songs into genres. I guess it's fair right? 


1. Pop


OneRepublic - Apologize (Original Version)


I love the original version of this song better because it has that haunting feeling about it. I still remember listening to this song while studying for my SPM Trial exam. It really did calm my nerve a lil bit. 


2. Rock


Seventytimes7 - Brand New.


This song is about how a girlfriend cheated on her boyfriend for his best friend. Cliché much? The angst in this song is fucking aye! Somehow I can relate myself to the angst when something similar happened to me once. I got over it of course (after months). 


3. Punk


Beautiful Girl - Taking Back Sunday


The only thing made this song my favourite punk song is when Adam Lazzara (the Lead Vocal) describe his persona of a beautiful girl in the beginning of the song.


A beautiful girl can make you dizzy,
Like you've been drinking jack and coke all morning.
She can make you feel high,
Full of the single greatest commodity known to man:
Promise. promise of a better day,
promise of a greater hope,
promise of a new tommorow.
This particular aura,
can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl.
In her smile, and in her soul.
In the way she makes every rotten little thing about life
seem like it's gonna be ok."


4. Dance


Lady GaGa - Just Dance


Come on. The song itself is called Just Dance, for sure it's my favourite Dance song. I first heard it when Lady GaGa performed the song at Miss Universe pageant, and she was quite unknown at that time. I can never get tired of this song. It's like an epic dance song.

5. Electro


MGMT - Kids


Tell me who doesn't love this song? It's like Barsonic/Lapsap anthem song! This song was my ringtone for months and some people got to know the song because of it. The catchy tunes just cant get from our head and it's not annoying at all.


6. RnB


Beyoncé - Halo


I can't say much on this, the song just made a person floating. Isn't it?


7. Hip Hop (Rap)


Eminem - Stan


I honestly don't listen to much Hip-Hop or Rap song, but when I made the list just now all I can think of is this song. I love how the song used Dido's song "Thank You" and actually tell a story.


8. Alternative


The Killers - When You Were Young


Among all the The Killers songs, I like this one the best. There's a remix version that's fucking awesome too! It was a devastating news to me when I found out the band dismembered. =(


9. Indie 


Arctic Monkey - I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor


This is actually the first indie song I ever listen to. Seriously. I got to know about Arctic Monkey when I read about them on the Times magazine in early 2006. At that time none of my friends knew about them. I was so cool to "discovered" the band before them all at that time! 


10. Country


Dixie Chicks - Not Ready To Make Nice


I know I'll shocked some of my friends by not putting Taylor Swift as my favourite country but to be honest Taylor Swift's songs arent country enough, more pop-ish. This song however is a great country song, it won Grammy for best song of the year summore! 


11. Foreign


Yelle - Je veux te voir


I can't remember how I got to know about this song, I think it was from a youtube video or something. But I can't get enough of this song. Actually this song tops my iTunes most played list. =)


12. Local


Bunkface - Situasi


Band ni la satu-satunya band local yang aku dengar. Lagu ni gak la lagu melayu yang aku rasa paling most played aku pernah dengar. Gila babi beb...eh tak payah ah cakap cam rempit kan? Hahaha. Apa-apa pun, lagu ni memang best gila and di minati ramai tak kira bangsa, agama and lain-lain2. 




Here I made a playlist of all my favourite songs! Hope you enjoy it. =)
