Chart toppers

Different songs remind me of the different people in my life, the events that took place or the emotion that it evoked in me once upon a time or in some cases, still do. So I decided to write a post just on that, on some of the songs that remind me of the people around me and the events that took place.

Feeling very nostalgic tonight baby.

-------------


#1 Git Fresh - Blow Me A Kiss
Diane, my ex room mate for a semester. She was the one who introduced me to this song and I was hooked. I remember singing it in S's car along with Wafa and Alan.

#2 Glenn Fredly - Januari
Break up song. Need I say more?

#3 Chris Brown - Forever
This song reminds me of Zhaf, of the time we took that ride back from Afi's place during Raya. It played and I remember being happy at that time, with my friends and that boy in my hand, right beside me. This song immortalized that moment forever, no pun intended. This was a long time back, back when Zhaf was still single, still with us and still here.

#4 Orson - No Tomorrow
I first heard this song at Nihmat from Haziq's Nokiaphone, while we were chatting with Farahin and Hakeem, during one of our tuition breaks, while eating cheese naan perhaps. Hehe good times they were.

#5 Supertramp - Goodbye Stranger
Hakeem. One of the very few people who listens to Supertramp's songs. This is one of the things that we have in common, a liking towards songs past our time. Of course ultimately this song will always remind me of the long car rides back to Ban Kuan, how we used to sing it in the car, thanks to father. Happy days.

#6 The Pretenders - I'll Stand By You
W. I used to sing this to you and I meant every word.

#7 Ne-Yo - Part Of The List
Post break up song. It hits too close to home. But then again all emotional love songs hits close to home heh heh. It also reminds me of Wafa, like how most songs of Ne-Yo do. Because he just likes Ne-Yo, a lot.

#8 Pitbull ft. Pharell - Blanco
Amir, one of the lads ;) I never liked this song that much, but after listening to them singing it in his car, I was hooked for while.

#9 Melly Goeslow ft. Jimmo - Pujaanku
I was in form 3 when I heard this. Those days when I was such a hopeless romantic, thinking love was like in the movies. I heard this in Eiffel I'm In Love and loved it, indeed. It's such a good song. Helpless? Hopeless? That's me.

#10 Madcon - Beggin'
H. Heard it in H's car and in Step 3 of course. This song never fails to cheer me up with its groovy beats and catchy lyrics. And of course, the good time I had that day.

#11 Samsons - Kenangan Terindah
I'm not quite sure who it reminds me of but I remember singing it out loud with a bunch of mates. The lyrics really suits the situation now. This one's for you ;)

#12 Jay Chou - Ye Qu (Nocturne)
This is the song I look forward to hearing on my cell. It means you're on the other end of the line :) Heard this on MTV a long time ago. The only song of Jay Chou I know heh.

#13 Broery Marantika - Kaulah Segalanya
I remember how you used to sing this to me over the phone, and how I'd sing along together when you reach the chorus. I remember being absolutely unaware of the song then, and now it's one of the songs I can't stop listening to. It reminds me of you and made me miss you so.

#14 Kesha - Cannibal
Alan made me listen to this ridiculously horny crazy song by Kesha bahahaha.

#15 The Strokes - Heart In A Cage
Haziq. He got me into listening to The Strokes. Thanks buddy.

#16 Stevie Wonder - I Just Called To Say I Love You
W. You were sad and I was too, so I called you up and left a voice sms on your cell. I sang it, and even though a tad shy to sing it, I did it anyway. I remember how happy you sounded and how you looked when I sang it to you again.

#17 Big Bang ft. 2NE1 - Lollipop
AFI !! I blame her for getting me into Korean songs (K-pop) !! She told me to listen to this and the rest is history. Who would have thought we'd jump into the wagon ay bb? Hehe lovelove.

#18 Feeling - Love It When You Call
WAWI! Because it's her caller ringtone AND well, she never calls :P Hehe Wawi if you're reading this, you know I love you ;) xx

#19 Lovehunters - Teman
Laili, my room mate during my first semester in Gombak, loved this song. She used to play this song over and over till I could memorize the lyrics. She finished school, got a job, got married and is now 6 months pregnant! Ahh how times flies. I miss her so.

#20 Bon Jovi - Always
Because you used to sing this every time we went karaoke-ing ;)

I think that sums it up for tonight, hehe.

But then again, most of the love songs or related to it reminds me of you. That's normal, I guess, you being the only one I ever wanted.


Love,
me.
