My Numa Numa Thoughts

The week came by so fast! Not that I had so many things to do but even for me, who have all the time in the world to spare...time flies fast! The whole week I had U2's "Stuck in A Moment" song in my head. I think it perfectly blends with the cloudy skies, the drizzle and the cool temperature over here. What is it with music and the weather anyway?

When you are in the beach, in my opinion, the best thing to play is Reggae. Something to the tune of Bob Marley and the Wailers or any Jamaican inspired music. When you are in the mall, it's all about standard pop music. Not so upbeat but just light music to provide as background I guess while shopping. Even an elevator has its own type of music. Elevator musics are normally the piano enhanced or some symphony in G, A or B minor or what have you's . Elevator music also translates to instrumental sounds. Why is this so? Is this purposely done to prevent people from singing along when inside the elevator?

Summer brings all kinds of music to my ears. I literally mean music genres like Rhythm and Blues or RnB, Hiphop, Dance ( ahhh all the Macarena, Spaghetti Songs, La Chupeta and the likes). There is this one particular summer dance song though that became my winter song. Everytime I hear it, I just can't help but smile and remember good winter memories watching Jean-Luc Reichmann of Attention à La Marche , Arthur of A Prendre Ou a Laisser on TF1 with family last year. Want to know the song? heck, it's not even in English, Tagalog or French. It's Romanian.

Have a great weekend!

P.S.

I recently shared my thoughts and fears on hamams, cutters,credit cards and churches in the Pinoyatbp website. Feel free to visit and read on!

Anonymous said...: Numa Numa is somewhat a dilly-dollying thoughts huh? I'm a sucker at singing. But I'm a true follower of the R&B's & "hitting-the-high-notes" kind of music - ballads and OPM are the ones that makes you remember the old times.

I've done most of my singing career in the singing chatrooms and became one of the wannabes.

And OMG, La Chupeta? hahaha. I remember I was so drunk that time in Bicol when my friends were pushing me to the dancefloor.; 10/01/2005 07:17:00 PM
