I broke my rule for not posting any personal things on the net. But I can't help it, I'm so proud of them I want to share it to the world.

And I'm jealous, they're so close. When they're having fun together, I wonder if they even know of my existence. Heh. @_@.

Song track:
"You'll Be in My Heart"
Written by Phil Collins
Performed by Usher in album "Disney Magic 2"

Only Hope

Movie: A Walk to Remember
Music Video: "Only Hope" by Mandy Moore

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But You sing to me over and over and over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now, You're my only hope

Sing to me the song of the stars
Of Your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that You have for me over again

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now, You're my only hope

I give You my destiny
I'm giving You all of me
I want Your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back

So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I pray to be only Yours
I know now, You're my only hope

Lagu yang cantik. Bait pertama hanya diiringi denting piano. Bait kedua mulai ditambah dengan gesekan cello. Biola juga mulai bergabung di refrein kedua. Semakin ke belakang semakin kaya instrumen walaupun tetap dominan di piano. Mandy Moore tanpa didukung oleh penyanyi latar .. vokalnya jernih.

Pertama kali gue denger ni lagu waktu gue nonton filmnya. The only highlight. Menyaksikan/mendengar Mandy Moore sebagai Jamie menyanyikan lagu ini sewaktu gue duduk di dalam keheningan studio bioskop yang gelap dan dingin, dengan layar lebar dan surrond sound, shot kamera yang sudutnya berputar 360 derajat .. impactnya berasa banget. Rasanya gue seperti tertelan kursi yang gue duduki, tercekat n merinding ga ada abisnya. Probably if I were there in the scene, I would kiss her too at the end of her song.

Dan semakin sering gue putar lagu ini, melodi yang gue tangkap semakin detil. I'm falling in love endlessly with this song.
