Lost Stars

Please don't see just a girl caught up in dreams and fantasies.
Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see.
Take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow.
Best laid plans; sometimes i'm just a one night stand.
I'll be damned; Cupid's demanding back his arrow.
So let's get drunk on our tears.

And God, tell us the reason is this youth wasted on the young.
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
We're searching for meaning...
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy.
'Who is me' if we're not careful turns into reality.
Don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow.
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer.
Turn the page; maybe we'll find a brand new ending.
Where we're dancing in our tears.

And God, tell us the reason youth is this youth on the young.
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
We're searching for meaning...
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

I thought I saw you out there crying...
I thought I heard you call my name...
I thought I heard you out there crying...
But just the same...

And God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young.
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run.
Searching for meaning...
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?
Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

Note : I thought I could stand not to share this song, but i was wrong. Sumpah yaa, abis nonton filmnya langsung yang mikir, ini Kiera playback or lip-sync doang kali, yaa? Eh, gak tahunya dia nyanyi beneran, dong! (ya tapi kan bisa aja dia ngaku-ngaku nyanyi padahal nyewa orang *masih gak percaya Kiera nyanyi dan lagunya menyayat-nyayat hati* *suaranya juga okee* *ya mungkin juga dibantu efek suara semacam apalah gak ngerti* *please, mbaak*)

Dan untuk lagu yang satu ini, I can't help but share this in my blog, yang bikin saya nyeees banget apalagi waktu liat bagian Gretta (Kiera Knighley) nyanyi untuk Dave (Adam Levine) , si calon bintang yang baru akan menghadapi industri musik, yang kemudian... udahlah, gedek jadinya kalo bahas Dave hakhaks xD. *i saw there would be something at next, dan ketara banget gimana (sebenarnya) cemasnya Gretta terhadap Dave ke depannya, tapi doi tetep optimis*. Sempet ikutan sebel waktu tahu si Dave ngerombak lagu ini di albumnya "on the road', langsung yang mikir, "apa-apaan lah Dave ini make-make lagunya Gretta?". Tapi kemudian inget, ini lagu kan emang dikasihin Gretta ke Dave. Dan waktu Gretta juga sebel lagunya dirombak abis, "I write it as a ballad, I don't know it becomes another stage of pop.", but next guess what happen after Gretta grumbling ngalor ngidul panjang banget, then she smiled and said, "Everything has changed.", well-done-everything-has-changed-that-we-usually-find-as-a-whatever-quote-beautifully-done-by-gorgeous-Gretta.

the saviour in this song

Sometimes I feel like , oh, don't let me fall my tears just for this cheesy song, then i found a lyric, "Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy", and thanks God i can laugh for that punch. Ya coba kamu artiin lirik yang dicetak tebal ituh, yang bisa jadi begini: "kita mah apa atuh, cuma setitik debu di galaksi"  *woooy, keterlaluan* Saya yang (again) langsung mikir, ini mungkin pencipta lagunya (Gregg Alexander) abis googling lagu yang populer di dunia, terus dia nemu salah satunya lagu "butiran debu" hahaa. Dan tahukah, lagu ini masuk nominasi Oscar 2015 sebagai best song *walau sebenarnya gak peduli juga sama award-award-an*

Sebuah lagu yang cheesy, soft & calm (tapi sedikit upbeat untuk yang bagian Adam Levine), tapi biar kata cheesy , ada juga unsur puitisnya seperti yang di bagian “butiran debu” itu dan bagian “It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run, searching for meaning.. But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?” Lagu ini dinyanyikan dalam dua versi: satu versinya Kiera dan satunya versi Adam Levine yang menurut saya, pas di bagian “I thought I saw you out there crying...”, suara khasnya Adam malah jatuhnya kayak Chipmunks gitu hahaa sorry, but i bet you will enjoy this song, as I do today. If you're not into the song, so just let me getting crazy sharing and talking all this s*i**.

another chit-chat:

lucu gimana Kiera pastinya cemas banget mesti kudu rekaman nyanyi, yang tentunya out of her comfort zone, udah gitu ada penyanyi yang udah punya kemampuan yang mumpuni lagi, si Adam Levine. terus yang Adam Levine nenangin dia dengan bilang kalau nyanyi itu easy. yang kemudian Kieranya ketawa "yeah, it's easy for you" (ya eyalaah, mudah menurut lu). Tapi kemudian pewartanya balikin lagi, "pastinya kamu bilang hal yang sama ke Adam Levine, acting is easy", Dan tentunya si cantik-keliatan-baik-baik ini bilang hal itu ke Adam Levine. What a support! Belakangan jadi tahu kalau suami Kiera itu adalah musisi, si James Righton. yah, gitu deh. How this work mean a bit entertaining, relaxing, reflecting, for me.
