The Ultimate Playlist

Taraaaaaa... Now im gonna spread these ear-candies. I choose them randomly, not that random sih. Tapi lagu-lagu dibawah ini sangat mewakili momen-momen tertentu saya (including that galau moment - -") . When someone asks me what's my favorite genre, well, if i were 13 years old guy who like to attend the Japan Pop Culture Festival,i'd like to answer,yeah, J-pop and J-rock. But i'm a 16 almost 17 years old guy who like to stalk people via internet, the answer are, Alternative-rock-post punk-jazzy-sometimes swing-kind of riot. Err, mungkin band yang memainkan musik alternatif kadang jazz dengan aransemen punk sedikit tambahan 8bit dan vokal ala riot-grrrl band,huggy bear? Yang pasti saya tidak begitu mengkotak-kotak an musik sekarang,mungkin ada masa dimana saya sok idealis dengan menjujung tinggi J-pop atau masa dimana saya ke hipnotis dengan Nirvana dan The Pretty Reckless sehingga anyhing goes to grunge, but now, saya enggak begitu terpaku dengan satu genre.

1. Oasis - Dont Look Back in Anger.

Yeah the top of my playlist is Oasis's Dont Look Back in Anger. Kalimat 'dont look back in anger' bener-bener stuck di kepala saya. Lagu ini kaya terapi batin ketika ada masalah, dan kadang jadi mesin untuk meng-calm kan pikiran. Saya emang lagi suka-sukanya ama Oasisbanyak lagunya yang sebenernya jadi top playlist saya, dan yang memperkenalkan Oasis ke saya adalah The Pretty Reckless, ketika Taylor Momsen meng-cover salah satu lagu Oasis, Wonderwall, saya langsung searching tentang Oasis, dan lagu lagu lainnya emang pas untuk ehm, galau.
Must listen from Oasis: Wonderwall, Let There Be Love, Dont Go Away, Champagne Supernova,Supersonic,Around The World,Rock and Roll star.

2. 30 Seconds to Mars - Kings and Queens.

Call me late, but saya baru aware dengan lagu ini sebulan yang lalu. Sebelumnya saya cuma tau Jared Letto dari perannya di 90's rebel TV series, My-so-called-life, dan lagu nya from yesterday aja. Tapi walaupun udah fall in love ama from yesterday sebelumnya, saya lebih in love dengan lagu ini. Ketika mendengarkan lagi ini,seperti mengingatkan kembali kalo the hope is there ketika saya down. Dan ketika umur saya 50tahun nati lalu anak saya bertanya hal apa yang menggambarkan the young people di dekade saya, saya suruh dia untuk check video klip dari lagu ini. And hell yeah,saya menyesal tidak menghadiri Java Rockin Land kemaren, huhuhuhu.
Must listen from 30 Seconds to Mars: Closer to the edge, From Yesterday, The Kill, Hurricane.

3. Paramore - Monster.

It's like everyone's favorite song right now. Moodbuster saya untuk beberapa minggu terakhir ini. Dentuman drum nya, lengkingan khas Hayley dan nada di bridge are so paramore. Mereka bikin formula sendiri untuk membuat ciri khas lagu paramore, i thought it will make songs of them that sounds similiar will sounds boring, but they didnt. Dan ini lagu favorit saya dari Paramore. Dan lagi-lagi saya menyesal tidak melihat konser mereka di bulan ramadhan lalu. graaaaaaaaaaa.
Must listen from Paramore: Decode, That's what you get, Careful, should i tell you more? Seems like you guys know well songs of them :p.

4.Tokyo Jihen - Himitsu.

One of my favourite band, yeah Tokyo Jihen! Saya suka musik-musik yang dibawakan Tokyo Jihen, Rock-Pop-Punk-Jazz-Swing semua ngumpul jadi satu. Apalagi personil-personil lainnya udah kaya dewa main musiknya. Dengerin OSCA deh, bener-bener sounds diffrent with the other songs. Saya udah fall in love ama Tokyo Jihen dari SMP, sebenernya Himitsu bukan lagu favorit saya dari Tokyo Jihen, tapi di lagu Himitsu formula yang dibikin Tokyo Jihen komplit banget. Ada rock,pop,jazz,alternative dan bit of r&b. Kalau ditanya lagu favorit saya dari Tokyo Jihen, jelas Sounan, Rakujitsu dan OSCA. Tapi akhir-akhir ini saya sering mendengarkan Himitsu. Pokoknya band ini jenius, jenius banget.
Must listen from Tokyo Jihen: Rakujitsu, OSCA, Sounan, Killer Tune, Dynamite, Shuraba, Service, Noudoteki Sanpunkan, Senkou Shoujo.

5.The Pretty Reckless - Void and Null.

Forget about 'make me wanna die', 'just tonight' or 'My Medicine' cause Void and Null is rule my playlist now. Sebelumnya saya memang pernah mengatakan kalo im such a big fan of The Pretty Reckless. Hampir semua lagunya saya hafal liriknya :p. No reason, i love this song, if you still asking me the reason,well i'll answer cause i love The Pretty Reckless. Oiya please, somebody tell me the chord,cause i really want to covering it! Peace Taylor Momsen's haters, she's not a Little J here, Jenny Humprey doesnt smoking.
Must Listen from The Pretty Reckless: Make Me Wanna Die, Just Tonight, My Medicine, Nothing Left to Lose, Factory Girl, Light me Up, Superhero, You, Panic,.. i think that you should listen all of their songs, pleseeeee

6.The Adams - Jikalau.

The Adams, salah satu band favorit saya jaman SD meng cover salah satu lagu dari band NAIF, Jikalau. My big sister were introducing me with this uber cool band with it's awesome song, konservatif. Lagu favorit saya waktu SD dari the Adams adalah waiting dan halo beni hehehe. Yang saya suka dari lagu versi mereka adalah bagaimana The Adams nge mix lirik yang flamboyan dengan aransemen musik alternatif dan sedikit musik elektronik. I think its better than the real version. One word, sophisticated.
Must Listen from The Adams: Konservatif, Waiting, Halo Beni, Hanya Kau.

7.The Killers - Mr.Brightside.

Saya inget pernah mendengarkan lagu ini di radio ketika SD, but the lyrics wasnt this stuck in my head like now. Saya baru tahu kalo power dari lagu ini adalah di liriknya, dan i'm officially in love with the Killers. Tapi sekarang si Brandon Flowers going solo ya walaupun The Killers enggak bubar.
Must Listen from The Killers:Human, When you were young, Boots, Read My Mind.

8.Huggy Bear - Her Jazz.

Saya beruntung dapat berkenalan dengan salah satu band yang revolusioner di zamannya. Yeah, 90's adalah tahun-nya para Riot-Grrl, walaupun banyak orang yang bilang Bikini Kill sounds better,but Huggy Bear are awesome. Dan dari lagu-lagu nya memang favorit saya adalah Her Jazz. Saya suka dengan kind of moodbuster song, dan faktor itu saya temukan di lagu ini. Vokal nya memang terdengar berantakan dan liriknya sangat rebel,tapi yah namanya aja riot-grrrl. Boy, girl, revolution yeahhh....
Must Listen from Huggy Bear: Aqua Girl Star, Pansy Twist, Carn't Kiss , Sizzlemeet.

9.The Dashboard Confessional - This Ruined Puzzle.

Another band favorit saya jaman SD. Dulu suka banget ama lagunya Hands Down. Sebenernya lagi suka dengerin ini karna lagi galau aja,walaupun liriknya enggak pas dengan kejadian,tapi feel nya dapet :p. Hahahahaha. But this ruined puzzle juga punya lirik yang bagus kayak Hands Down.
Must Listen from The Dashboard Confessional: Hands Down, Belle of the Bpulevard, Dont Wait, Stolen, Vindicated, Saint and Sailors.

10.The S.I.G.I.T - Soul Sister.

Masterpiece from the S.I.G.I.T :) Walaupun bukan such a big fan of the S.I.G.I.T tapi lagu-lagu mereka cukup banyak di playlist saya. Dan lagi seneng denegrin soul sister.
Must listen from The S.I.G.I.T: Let it go, Horse, No Hook, Midnight Mosque Song.


That's all, lagu-lagu yang hanging around my playlist recently, but mostly banyak lagu-lagu dari Oasis yang sering saya putar. Lagi suka banget ama Oasis :).

Okay, Gill.

Popcorn's Partner

HEY!
Tonight is a new year eve!
Wooohooooooo!!
I will celebrate it with my family like last years, actually i planned to celebrate it with my friends, but my mum asked me to join the family's party- -.
Well that's okay :).

Nah, i will talk about movie

I've watched a lot of movies since i were on elemantary school.
My sister used to bring me to the VCD&DVD's rental at the weekend, i was kid at that time so usually my sister give me the choices of movies then i have to pick some of them, its more "safe" cause she knew what's movie that good for a kid like me.
But sometimes she allowed me to watch her movies, at that time, i could watch more than hollywood, cartoon or kid's comedy genre cause she used to borrowing another genre from another country,and sometimes an absurd festival movie, the first movie that made me cry, i dont remember the name, but its a korean movie, actually she didnt borrowing this movie for me.
I think its not kinda sad movie,its more like comedy romantic but there was a scene that made me cry, i was about 11years old, the story is about a girl who can turned back the time, so she could meet her dead mother,i was crying when i saw the scene when she met her dead mother again, i was like, thanks God, my mother still here with me, so i shouldnt turn back the time to see her again!
But After that there was no movie that make me cry again (not yet :P),then i used to ask her to watch her borrowed movies, like "Can i watch this? It is okay for a child?".
When i turned 14 i can choose my own movies, she said that im smart enough to choose a good movie :p.
So i tell ya some of my favorite movies :).

Swing Girls.

Oh shit, this is the best musical dramedy movie everr :p! You should watch this with your dudes.
The story is about some high school- nuts - girls who accidentally make a big jazz band cause their own fault, at first they didnt like it, but finally they fell in love with it.
There's a lot of stupid scene, the stupidest scene is when a big pig chased after them at the forest, huahahahaha.
Its sucha inspiring movies, imagine a group jazz with a bunch of nuts girls inside.

Little Manhattan.

This movie always make me smile,hahaha. I dont know why, first love never wrong huahahaha.

500days Of Summer.
Yeahh everyone knew this movie, i cant tell you more, no comment, its a good movie with a good story and a good cinematography!
It's soundtracks are awesomeeeeeee! My playlist is full of the 500days of summer soundtrack, and this movie made me fall in love with Zooey Deschanel.

Nick and Norah Infinite playlist.The story is simple but still inspiring :).

Honey and Clover.

I watched it cause Aoi Yuu was the actrees :), she's so cute arghhhh. The outfits are awesome!
Like a swing girls is a japanese movie, its based on populer manga, if you have read the manga, probably you wont like this movie.
But its a good movie, the story its quite complicated, yeah its a drama.
There's many silent scene without dialogue. Some people said that they couldnt get the story, that's why i watched it twice, hehe.

Amelie.

I just wanna watch it again, love it!

KICKASS.

Its a superhero's movie with a real story.
You cant see a flying guys or a mutant here, its just a movie about the reality.
By the way, i love Chloe G.Moretz :p.

Little Secret.
I watched it when i was on elemantary school, sucha inspiring story and you know what after i watched it i just wanna make a secret keeper's shop like on the movie huahaha.

Juno.

Well i ask many of my girl-friends to watch it, cause its so inspiring for a teenager girl.
I didt really interest when i heard the story, about a pregnant teenager,bahhh, but when i see the actrees, it was Ellen Page, God, she's so cute.
After i watched it, i didnt expect that i will love this movie :p.
Its just about a responsibility, the consequence of all what you did. Dont take any risk if you dont ready for it. So think twice before you do something.

Devil wears Prada.

Another stylish movie, the story is learned me to be my own self is better than be another guy just to make another people happy.

Scott Pilgrim VS the World.
YEY its sucha fresh movie! I love the uniqe concept of this movie, like playing a videogame.

KILL BILL
(both of volume 1&2).
Yeah two movies with an inspiring figthing scenes, the story and the drama i love them all.

Inception.

The most absurd movie i ever watch- -".
But this movie is make us thinking right? The good movie its just not about entertaining, but it have to make us thinking.
I like the story concept of this movie. The thriler-action movies will never be same like this.

The Unfortunate Events.From all it's books, i just love the first three volumes, so i'm so happy that my favorite volumes became a movie :).
Ahh and i love the wardrobe's!

Edward The Scissorshands.

I watched it when i was on kindergarten! Huahahahaha, i didnt get the story at that time i was just adore the edward's costume, but after a few years i watched it again, then i just had a plan to make a scissorhands- -.
But i think i wanna watch it again,i just m,issed some scenes,unfortunately its too hard to get the VCD or DVD here.

Hana and Alice.

Yeahh Aoi Yuu again :p!
The story is kinda absurd, i have to watch it for a few time, but the only things that make it's intersting at the first sight is the cinematography's!
I love it's cinematography!

Turtles Can Fly.

Arghhhhhh i covered my eyes a lot when i watched this movie, no its not a horror, but there's many tragic scene.
You can see the condition of Iraqi's childerns at the American's invasion and how they survive againts war there.
Tragic :(.

Toy Story (1,2,3 love them all :p) .

EVERYONES LOVE IT!! YEAHHH!!!
(all pictures i found on err internet- -)

In their song Service they're changed swing intrusment become punk-rock but my favorite 'beat song' are Sounan and OSCA. And my favorite 'slow song' are Rakujitsu and Tasogare Naki.
