The Reason

Written By Rocky Batara on Sunday, February 6, 2011 | 12:49 PM

Sometimes, it's hard to forget the person who becomes so special to you. Or a person that really becomes part of your heart. Though many years already passed, that person would somehow flashes your mind!

This happened to me after listening to this previous hit song. This song called "The Reason" from Hoobastank is a popular hit song way back in 2004. And during that year, I was a third year ECE student who trapped inlove with the person who already flew in Dubai!

During those times, whenever I heard this song, it made me cry! It keeps me reminded with a love I already lost!

The reason why she flew to Dubai and leaved me alone is because she wants to find a good job. And the reason why I pursue engineering is to also have a better job someday and also to totally forget her!

Now after 7 years, all were just memories of the past! Am I still loving her?! Or I now fully recovered from her?! Well, my answer now is I'm finding my one true love! Yes, I already moved on from her and ready to love again!

So for my pre-Valentines offering, here is Hoobastank singing you with a song called "The Reason"! Love is really the reason why we are living and taking different challenges! c",)


The Reason

(Hoobastank)



I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you [x4]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Right Here Waiting

Written By Rocky Batara on Tuesday, February 16, 2010 | 2:28 AM

How long do we need to wait? Are we waiting for the right one to come or just we were only waiting for nothing?

Can love wait...? Or we are the one that needs to wait for love?!

Just recently, this song was heard all over the radio! And take note, the latest version of it was sung by a female singer.

Yup, I know, we were all familiar with the original version of this song by Richard Marx! This was the 80's hit love song that is still played on the different radio stations! It's such as timeless classic love song!

But this year, another new version of it was heard! And it was the version of the pop star princess Ms. Sarah Geronimo!

This is part of her current album which is Music and Me! Her new album is a collection of her hit songs, movie themes, and revival classic just like this!

In her version of this song, Sarah put all her emotions (like she always does) singing the song that makes you feel it! Hearing this, you will really feel the love you're waiting for the rest of your life! The love that you wait and the love that you think will wait for you!

This song is very much applicable to all the single individuals that until now waiting for their love to come! Of course, this is also applicable to the love affairs separated by distance or ambitions! Just like in my case, I was separated to my loves because of different reasons! Some needs to go abroad for work, some needs to pursue their career alone, some just didn't worked! But whatever reason, the point goes...all of us were waiting for the so-called right kind of love!

So while waiting for the meantime, I have here for you the lyrics of the song "Right Here Waiting" as popularized originally by Richard Marx and now by Sarah Geronimo! C",)




Right Here Waiting
(Richard Marx / Sarah Geronimo)


Oceans apart, day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
But how can we say forever

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it, baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it, baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

Wag Na Wag Mong Sasabihin

Romance in Paris...or Lovers in Paris...! All of us were very much familiar with this!

Korean or Filipino, it really created a smash hit on our TV screen. But of course, its original soundtrack also created a place in our hearts! The TV series or the song itself...it is such a love story na walang kaPARIS...!

I still remember the date. It was 2004, I was a third year student in my new collage, the collage in Engineering where I took up my ECE course when the original koreanovela "Lovers in Paris" first aired on Primetime Bida replacing the smash hit fantaserye "Marina".

We all didn't expect that the said TV series will create a phenomenon on television. It was then themed with Kitchie Nadal's original hit "Wag na Wag Mong Sasabihin"! Together, a total TV series craze was created on Philippine television. Carlo, Vivian, and Martin really touched our hearts.


The same teleserye fever was again repeated but this time with a Filipino flavor! A remake of the hit Koreanovela was revived on TV. Piolo Pascual, KC Concepcion, and Zanjoe Marudo are now the new Carlo, Vivian, and Martin! A new love-triangle heats up our TV screen.

Hearing their song which was now revived by KC Concepcion with another version from KC duet with Piolo, I still remember my 2004 love story. If they have a love story in Paris, I could say, I have a former love in Dubai! Yeah, as I told you before in my previous posts, my love flew in Dubai to look for a better future while I remained here in our country and decided to pursue an engineering course. Glad I already finished it now with flying colors!

5 years had passed. I have now my own career and creating my own future. That love I used to cherished for years were now laid in my memories. A better good and inspiring love story to look back and share!

Well, to inspire you as well, here is the lyrics of the song we all used to love! Be inspired! Let love come our ways! Let us all reminisce the past love we had...! c",)



Wag Na Wag Mong Sasabihin
(KC Concepcion and Piolo Pascual / Kitchie Nadal)

May gusto ka bang sabihin
Ba't di mapakali
Ni hindi makatingin
Sana'y wag mo na 'tong palipasin
At subukang lutasin
Sa mga isinabi mo na ibang nararapat sa akin
Na tunay kong mamahalin

Ohhhhh wag na wag mong sasabihin
Na hindi mo nadama itong pag-ibig kong handang ibigay kahit pa kalayaan mo

Ano man ang naakala
Na ako'y isang bituin
Na walang sasambahin
Di ko man ito ipakita
Abot langit ang daing
Sa mga isinabi mo na ibang nararapat sa akin
Na tunay kong mamahalin

Ohhhhh wag na wag mong sasabihin
Na hindi mo nadama itong pag-ibig kong handang ibigay kahit pa kalayaan mo

At sa gabi
Sinong duduyan sayo
At sa umaga
Ang hangin na hahaplos sayo

Ohhhhh wag na wag mong sasabihin
Na hindi mo nadama itong pag-ibig kong handang ibigay kahit pa kalayaan mo

Ohhhhh...

Ohhhhh...

Ohhhhh wag na wag mong sasabihin
Na hindi mo nadama itong pag-ibig kong handang ibigay kahit pa kalayaan mo

Wherever You Will Go

Written By Rocky Batara on Friday, May 8, 2009 | 6:26 PM

It's been five years from now. 2004 was the year she left to go in the Arabian country to go and look for a better oppurtunity. On the same year, I already completed my first course. It was also the year that I started my new career in the College of Engineering. Thanks for my second scholarship!

I was blessed with my good lucks in my career studies then. What was left to me is a broken heart. A heart broken because of the love that leaved me for the Middle East. A place were good jobs were offer.

Everytime this song was played, she keeps me reminding for my love to her. Wherever she will go...wherever you may go...my love will keep in my heart! My love will always stay even for years right now. I just keep on dreaming that someday, we will meet again. Dubai led the distance for my heart.

I always remember her wondering how she looks right now. Is the beauty of her face remains the same? Is her teeth still shinning as cute as before? Or will I stay dreaming for her? Nothing more, what left to me is the short memory that we have. Thanks for 'The Calling' that made this song a hit for all the broken-hearted persons like us because of the career goal separated by the distance.




Wherever You Will Go
(The Calling)

So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone could you make it on your own.

CHORUS:
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Well then I hope there's someone out there
who can bring me back to you


CHORUS
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind I'll stay with you for all of time

CHORUS
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

If I could turn back time
I'd go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'd go wherever you will go
I'd go wherever you will go

How I wish I could turn back time. Turn back the time that we had before. But then, the only thing I could do is just think of those good old days. Wherever you will go...wherever you will go...love just let go! c",)
