Dashboard Confessional-Stolen

Because I love anime, I picked this video. I know they aren't really a legit couple anymore (last time I checked, of course, which was forever ago-still, it would be an extremely random outcome if they actually WERE legit now...lol) but I just...like the vid. >.< Ummm, anyway, if this eventually gets removed from YouTube due to some copy write (which I don't see happening considering I've been watching this video since I was fourteen...), you can just go look it up somewhere else! lol

Ahem. This song holds so much meaning for me; not just in the fact that it's a beautiful piece, but in the fact that I have practically grown up, spend springs and summers for two years, with this song.
 I remember too much happiness, heartbreak, and precious moments when I listen to this song.

 Particularly, that one night that I spend staring up at the sky, wishing on stars, feeling like I could fly far across the world to see new places and meet new people.

 The lyrics are...okay I guess. I don't see anything wrong with them. ^^


We watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced,
Another sun soaked season fades away

You have stolen my heart
You have stolen my heart

Invitation only, grand farewells
Crash the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy-eyed, too early to say goodnight...

You have stolen my heart
You have stolen my heart

And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well
Sleep well
Sleep well
Sleep well
Sleep well

You have stolen my....
You have stolen my....
You have stolen my....
You have stolen my heart....

I watch you spin around in your highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel

You have stolen my
You have stolen my
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart........

Owl City-To the Sky


(I missed yesterday, sorry^^;;) Cute, dreamy song. Very hopeful and I like singing along or writing or drawing to Owl City. Not to mention, the movie was amazing, no? I still need to read the books though! XD (lazy, lazy, lazy...)

Shipwreck in a sea of faces
There's a dreamy world up there
Dear friends in higher places
Carry me away from here

Travel light, let the sun eclipse you
'Cause your flight is about to leave
And there's more to this brave adventure
Than you'd ever believe

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
You take to the sky

On the heels of war and wonder
There's a stormy world up there
You can't whisper above the thunder
But you can fly anywhere

Purple burst of paper birds this
Picture paints a thousand words
So take a breath of myth and mystery
And don't look back

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
(Take to the sky)

There's a realm above the trees
Where the lost are finally found
Touch your feathers to the breeze
And leave the ground

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high

So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
You take to the sky
(You take to the sky)

You take to the sky

sweetpea-강릉에서 (At Gangreung)

Soothing, sweet song. I was told that it was 'comfortable music' by a friend, lol. I like it a lot. Even before I knew the lyrics, it had some sort of quiet, reminiscent tone. Then I read the lyrics and realized that the music communicated the meaning perfectly. 


기억하니 우리 함께 했던 그때 그 바닷가

그래 그 기억이 아직도 날 설레이게 해

너도 기억하니 우리 함께 했던 그 바닷가

그래 그 기억이 아직도 날 설레이게 해

너에게 말은 안했지만 난 처음은 아냐

그래 하지만 난 우리의 맨 처음을 기억해




Do you remember that time we were together (at) the beach

Yeah, that memory is still fluttering me this year

You do remember that (time) we had with the sea

Yeah, those memories are still fluttering me this year

Owes to you (the) first time, I'm not saying

Yeah, but I remember our first time.


(No, I didn't translate this, hahaha...I understand just a liiiiiiiitle bit. ^^ Like, uri is our, and sigan is 'time'. I think yege is remember, but, who knows, hahaha. I can, on the other hand, read it all to you (weird to not know what I'm reading, though, hahahah).

Jonsi-Sticks and Stones

Cute movie, cute song. ^^ I'm also so intrigued by the fact that two of the verses are in Icelandic. Since I was little I've always been intrigued by Scandinavia (surprise! I bet you thought this girl was only concerned about East Asia! :P)

Anyway, here's the lyrics-

Eyes open wide, blinded by the sun now
Orange and white, dark red, green and yellow
Rainbow colors! Do not hide, see the view!
Step aside, go through!

Against the light, too strong, blow a fuse now
Everything bright, new songs, burning shoes
The look in your eyes! Break our bones into half!
Scream and shout and do laugh!

Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)
Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see - You'll see

Inn um ermar, upp hryggjarsúluna
Yfir skóg, flæðir niður brekkuna
Allt upp í loft! Ég mun aldrei gleyma!
Því ég mun aldrei!




(Into the sleeve, up the spine column
Over the forest, flowing down the slope
Up in the air! I will never forget!
Because I will not!)

Hleypur um, rífur, leysir flækjurnar
(Upp með rótum) Með blik í augum!
Stórmerki, undur, brjótum bein í sundur!


(Run about, scratches, loosens up tangles
(up by its roots) With a twinkle in the eye!
Wonders, miracles, breaking bones in pieces!)

Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)
Let yourself... go (Oh Oh Oh)

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Right beyond the trees
Show you how you'll be

Stay close to me
Count one, two and three
Up in through your sleeve
Busting through the seam
Open your eyes and see - You'll see

Stay close to me : Count one, two, three
Up in your sleeve : You're right behind me
Stay close to me : Count one, two, three
Up in your sleeve : Burst through the seam

Open your eyes and see
You'll see (You'll see...)
