We had dinner at this wonderful restaurant. They have the best beef :p

Oh the restaurant is Justone and it's at Sathorn Soi 1.
We were supposed to go bed supper club after dinner. But grew tired after dinner, so we went home to zzz.. :p





We spent much of the second day at pratunum. Great shopping and I bargained a lot.. for the girls even.
All they could do was smile and say please....
haha
so funny!

It was quite crowded. Almost a full house. And I'm glad I was there.


I was quite prepared for a less than perfect Sandy that night.
Since her latest album is much too commercialised.

But when she started with <傾斜> , my all time favorite track, I had a feeling I will enjoy myself.
It's been a long time I find myself screaming and cheering in a concert.
I guess I really enjoyed the concert.
Sandy has too many hits to choose from but I'm glad that she has covered most of her classics.

The concert was really great. And if I get another chance, I will get the front row seat.
Hee.

As I listened to Sandy singing her songs, I thought about female singers like madonna. Their message is often "Never Go For Second Best".
But for females like Sandy, her approach is always "Love All that You Can, But If It Has To End, It Should".

I admire her strength.

女人独有的天真
和温柔的天分
要留给真爱你的人
不管未来多苦多难
有他陪你完成
虽然爱是种责任
给要给得完整
有时爱美在无法永恒
爱有多销魂
就有多伤人
你若勇敢爱了就要勇敢分

Went to watch Coldplay's concert with my brother today.


As we can see, Coldplay's really famous. But this concert proved that I'm not too big a fan. Chris Martin's (lead singer) rolling on the floor means nothing to me while I got high when Damien Rice sounded a strange high note.


Still it was a fun concert.

It was 20:31. The seat beside me is still empty.
He didn't say "Hi" or "How's everyone doing?". Damien Rice just walked onto the stage and started to sing. And I thought "That's strrrange"

He sang The Professor.

It isn't my favorite song, but it gave me an inkling that Rice's vocal is steady and the sound system is alright :)

Then immediately after this first song (to which the crowd clapped and cheered as though Damien Rice is some hot butt shaking guy - which he is.. in a geeky and non butt shaking way), he played the chords to Delicate.

Damien Rice didn't come with his band. It was only he and his guitar. No Lisa, no strings, no piano.

After 3 or 4 songs, he finally spoke after singing the lines "I remember it well...". He paused and said "This is quite an ironic song. Because I sang I remember it well, but I can't remember the lyrics"

Then he played a chord which got me really excited. I sat up in anticipation as he kneed on the floor.
"Nothing unusual.. Nothing strange.."
It is Amie. My favorite song.
"Amie come sit on my wall..." I closed my eyes to hear the word "Amie" echo through the theatre. Enough to make my heart break. And I decided that this song made the one hundred dollars well spent.

Someone in the audience shouted "Lonelily!"
And he really sang it. Unplugged from the amplifiers, he sat down and sang.
I never liked Lonelily before. But to hear it last night was wonderful. I guess that's why I never liked it on CD and why Damien Rice had wanted his guitar to be unplugged.

Few songs later, he sang Volcano. For those who knows this song, it is actually sang with Lisa.
I've always like the part where Lisa sings Don't throw yourself like that in front of me
But last night, Damien Rice sang back and forth by himself. So, I closed my eyes and sang Lisa's part in my head as he swings from the male vocals to the female vocals and back again. And suddenly the face of him in make up appeared in my head. It made me laugh. (I'm that strange I know. The people in my head have already accepted me as I am. I won't change for you.)
I've always like the energy of this song.. You give me miles and miles of mountains and I’ll ask for the sea.

I've always told people that I regretted getting Shawn Colvin's DVD. Because the interview shows her personality and it isn't like her in her songs.
But I am glad to see Damien Rice yesterday. I think I will really like him as a person.
Sad. But Happy. And Fun too.
And these aspects show when he sang Childish. A song that reflects his journey as a songwriter. And how he can be a prick sometimes and childish and self-centered most of the time. And I can relate to that because sometimes when you write and work on a piece of work, your attention is only yourself and you really need to skip out of the loop to re-adjust.

"And so it is..."
Everyone cheers.
Of course it is The Blower's Daughter!
And I hated it.
Why is this song he's final song?
I know why. But Why?
hee.
I am never liked this song.
So when he was singing. My mind drifted somewhere else. And I saw Blower's daughter! ha. I'll draw it out soon.
Anyway, back to the song..
When it finally got to before the last line "'til I find somebody new", Damien Rice improvised and sang Radiohead's Creep. He is fun.
And a break from The Blower's Daughter is great for me :p

2 hours.
A great concert.
Oh.. the empty seat beside me was eventually taken by some girl. And I thought God has arranged Damien Rice to come sit there. Maybe there's a great plan that lies ahead for us.
Come back soon, Damien!
