woohoo! 2 entries in a row. coz i found another song. this one has a super emo tune. and i tell you the lyrics are pure poetry man!!! the song is only in one paragraph coz it's supposed to be a continuous song and the artiste (Annie Lennox) sings it in such a way that it is smooth and flows through the whole emotion. but then there are pauses and disjointments here and there, expressing the persona's state of mind. it's art. (crap i sound like i'm writing a lit essay. shall stop here.) the song is totally EMO. couldn't sleep last night so i turned on the radio around midnight. then i heard this song. i really love this song. really really. =D
in the show "So You Think You Can Dance", season 2, one pair (Allison and Ivan) danced to this song. the choreography was so so astoundingly beautiful, and the technique, and what's more, the beaubeaubeautiful extensions was so breathtaking. the chemistry between the two dancers was so intense, that i could feel it through the TV screen. watched the dance thrice on TV ( 2nd time during the encore of the show, 3rd time drg the review) and all three times i was so so sooooo touched. it was one of the most unforgettable dances. it's the dance that inspired me a lot and gave me a lot of strength. coz i saw how dance can express the most intense emotions. this is Allison and Ivan doing the dance to this song from So You Think You Can Dance. this is not the TV version. the TV one got removed frm youtube. the quality is the best that i could find already. love this dance. love the song too =D haha. watch it! highly recommended!

Why- Annie Lennox
How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey...this kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me...
Why
Why
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
And I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides...Why can't you see this boat is sinking
(This boat is sinking this boat is sinking)
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside out
Tell me...Why
Tell me...Why
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel.............
