a supermassive black hole;

we had to perform a song for the grade 7s during "music assembly"

it was alright, although our singing was a bit mushed together and rushed. not really clear and everything. ah well.

the orchestra played pirates of the carribean. it was seriously awesome. our orchestra may not be the best orchestra or whatever but still, when they played it, you can feel it in your heart. you can taste the loyalty between brothers, you can feel the burn of passion in your veins, and the sound of the cymbal clashing feels like the waves are crashing on the shore. i really think that's what music is supposed to be. it stirs your heart, it causes you to feel.

it all sounds cheesy and stupid! but it's real. try it.

(edit)

hahah, i was never one for classical music. i never learnt how to appreciate it. in fact, i was never one for fine art! i was more of a pop culture/emo/indie sort of person.

but now its like, i'm being bombarded with culture! and art! and music! my right brain (or was it left?) is so much more active nowadays.

and i love this song. it's so haunting.

THOU LORD KNOWEST THE SECRETS OF OUR HEARTS -PURCELL

Thou knowest, Lord
the secrets of our hearts,
shut not, shut not,
thy merciful ears unto our prayers
but spare us, Lord, most holy
O God, most mighty
O God, most merciful Saviour
Thou most worthy Judge eternal
for any pains of death
to fall away from Thee.

Amen.

hohoho, i am so arty farty now.
