Wish you were here

Wish you were here. That'll be my reply if you asked me to name one particular song that I found most epic. Pink Floyd has been the most powerful songwriters since the Beatles and most of their albums are well known to be legendary. Such as the Concept album, The Wall , Dark Side of the Moon and Animals. Though not many will deny that the greatest album of all time would have to be "Wish You Were Here".


As for the title song, I remember the first time I listened to it and found it phenomenal. It's riddled with questions directed to the listener. It will make you think and wonder as what Lennon did in Imagine. It's poetic beauty in its lyrics and music composition makes this song almost highly untouchable.

Watch this video and listen. That's all I am asking. Listen and ask yourself.



So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell?
Blue skies from pain?

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

Big Mac

Haven't been in McDonalds for a very long while (since the 90s?). I hung out with Dan yesterday and apparently he was dying for a Big Mac. Yes, Dan. You earned your nickname.

This will kill you.

Surprisingly though, the whole meal was filling for just a burger and fries (Fine! Large Fries). I can see now why McD is a worldwide favourite.

Demi Lovato

You might have seen Demi Lovato in Camp Rock. Yeah, that TV Disney Movie with the Jonas Brothers in it. Some of you might be looking at me like "What? Azzi? Jonas Brothers?" like when you heard Miley Cyrus in my car. Number 1, It was there by ACCIDENT because I rushed to burn the CD. Number 2, No, I'm not a Jonas Brothers fan. I'm still really Metal at heart you know.

Beneath this 16 year old is raw explosive energy. A born rocker I might say. First time I heard Get Back, I'd thought it would be an average teenager rock song. The catchy tune, however, stuck my ears into it. It wasn't until 2:14 in the video that got me really hooked.

See for yourself. Here's Demi Lovato's new single "Get Back".



Don't walk away like you always do, this time
Baby you're the only thing that's been, on my mind
Ever since you've left I've been a mess
You won't answer your phone
I'll say it once and I'll leave you alone
But I gotta let you know.

I wanna get back to the old days
When the phone would ring, and I knew it was you
I wanna talk back, and get yelled at
Fight for nothing, like we used to
Oh kiss me, like you mean it
Like you miss me, cause I know that you do
I wanna get back, get back
With you

Don't look at me that way I see it in your eyes
Don't worry about me I've been fine
I'm not gonna lie I've been a mess
Since you left
And every time I see you it gets more and more intense

I wanna get back to the old days
When the phone would ring, and I knew it was you
I wanna talk back, and get yelled at
Fight for nothing, like we used to
Oh kiss me, like you mean it
Like you miss me, cause I know that you do
I wanna get back, get back
With you

You were the only one I wanted
And you were the first one I fell for
You're the only one that I'm in need of
And I don't wanna be lonely anymore

I wanna get back to the old days
When the phone would ring, and I knew it was you
I wanna talk back, and get yelled at
Fight for nothing, like we used to
Oh kiss me, like you mean it
Like you miss me, cause I know that you do
I wanna get back, get back
With you

Get back (Get back)
Get back (Get back)
Get back (Get back)
Get back (Get back)

Oh kiss me, like you mean it
Like you miss me, cause I know that you do
I wanna get back, get back
I wanna get back, get back
I wanna get back, get back
With you

Get back!

McDonald Commercials

Tired of Ronald McDonald? Remind you too much of The Joker, and you hear his bloodcurling laugh every time you bite a Big Mac? Here's some interesting commercials for McD.

Can the guy from SuperSize me explain what does this all mean?
Well, I mean not that I'm complaining..

Does it make you want to buy the burger?


What about you ladies?

New Blogs coming Soon!

I have an announcement to make. I'm excited to tell you all that once the exam month ends, my two new blogs wil go online. It's been my plan over a whole year to make a separate blog that specialises in one of my passions.

Gaming Blog

A collaboration between the Brothers of Destruction.
That's right everyone, Zani will be joining the blogging community. He will be researching interesting videogame information where I will be writing the articles. There we will describe our critique on previews of upcoming games, our views on released games, and classic games that we always find time to play (Shadow of Colossus, I love you).
We will be collecting info from every site we can find and deliver it to our Brunei Gamer Community. We are going to aim big everyone! From your fellow gamers, Ziggy and Maximus.

Comic Blog

People are wondering about the progress on that comic collection I've been planning. Well honestly, I have a whole lot of paper around my room and mostly they're concept drawings that I've made over the years. So this blog will not only act as my diary, but also as a gallery. Then I'll just leave for everyone to comment on them and say what they think.

Since they are still in-production, I won't reveal any links yet. But I will! Please check them out as soon ^_^
