Deep-freeze me.
January 26, 2008Just finished downloading and listening to the latest single of Sugarfree. I got to listen to the whole song for the first time, and I mean the first time, despite of its premiere on MTV and MYX for quite a few weeks now. As usual, as I was listening to Sugarfree’s, my heart suddenly felt like an ice cube taken out of the freezer, strained in the palms of one’s hand, until it becomes useless water dropping on the floor, waiting to be evaporated by earth’s natural heat. The heck, I could simply express it as “my heart was melting,” but of course, it was more than just melting. Though it was something I am not really sure of. Nangangawit is a happy song, a hopeful song, it is a loving song, a sweet song, and also a frustrated song. What other words could I use better than melting? Not in the mood to probe Mr. Webster right now, so please just excuse me for the lack of exact words.
Ebe once more has stretched a song beyond its proper limit. He always does, in his own styles; and that is why I adore him. I don’t think anyone could stir salitang kalye up to a great emotional intensity the way Ebe does in his songs. The amount of intensity isn’t just in words, really, half of it is in his voice, tone, modulation, or whatever. Again, lack of right words, pardon me.
I just so love him dearly. That is all what I really want to say.
“Hanggang kailan ko dadalhin aking lihim na pagtingin? Kung hindi mo pa alam, ewan ko na lang.” –song’s best line for me.
