Childhood's Soundtrack

August 5th, 2007.

Recently, I like to remember my childhood song. It was full with Spice Girls’, Backstreet Boys’, 5ive’s, Boyzone’s, 911’s. My cousin, Astari, introduced me with these kind of musics. From the moment I heard Spice Girls cassette played in her car, I fell for it rght away. I did fancy Gery Halliwell—ginger spice—who later chose to get out from this magnificent girlband.

You know what, my cousins and I made a vocal group, named Paradise, which had ever sang live in Lapangan Banteng. We sang Spice Girls’ songs: four songs in total. Spice up your life, Say You’ll Be There, Mama, and Wannabe. Whoaaa... It was truly embarassing and fascinating also. Hahahaha.

My favourite Spice Girls’ songs are Two Become One and Love Thing. Gery is absolutely charming and beautiful in Two Become One video. OMG, what a woman!

Two Become One

By: Spice Girls

Album: Spice Girls [Track 3]

Candle light and soul forever,

a dream of you and me together

Say you believe it, say you believe it

Free your mind of doubt and danger

Be for real, don’t be a stranger

We can achieve it, we can achieve it.

Come little bit closer, baby

Get it on, get it on

‘Cause the night is the night

When two become one

I need some of love like I never need a love before

*wanna make love to you, baby*

I had a little love, now I’m beg for more

*wanna make love to you, baby*

Set your spirit free, it’s the only way to be

Silly games that you were playing

Empty words we both were saying

Let’s work it out, boy. Let’s work it out, boy

Once again if we endeavour,

love can bring us back together

Take it or leave it, take it or leave it

Are you as good as I remember, baby?

Get it on, get it on

‘Cause the night is the night

When two become one

Be a little bit wiser, baby

Put it on, put it on

‘Cause the night is the night

When two become one...

Love Thing

By: Spice Girls

Album: Spice Girls [Track 4]

*You know I don't wanna know*

Don't wanna know about that love thing

Give me what I'm needing

You know what I'm dreaming of

Don't wanna know about that love thing

Been broken hearted before

but that's the last time it happens to me

I keep on giving still you're asking for more

Too much emotion, baby, why can't you see

I am not afraid of your love

Why can't you see I've had my share of that

You're what I want, boy

You know you got to, boy

You gotta want me, it's just what I need

I am not that easy as a matter of fast

There's no room for loving

Stop that push and shoving

*Don't wanna know about that love thing*

Give me what I'm needing

You know what I'm dreaming of

*Don't wanna know about that love thing*

Now don't go wasting my time

You're not the only thing I got on my mind

My friends are with me when you ain't been around

Your precious words and promises

They bringin me down

I've got some living to do

But don't assume I'm gonna be with you

Denying

By: Spice Girls

Album: Spice World

You think you're quick but I'd like to see you keep it up with me

You think you're slick but I'd like to see you pull a trick on me

You think you're so cool, hey big man, you're old school

You think you're smart but who the hell d'ya think you're talking to?

Everyone can see who you are

Take a look at yourself

Tell me, why keep on denying

Everything you say, denying

Everything you do

So be a fool to yourself forever more,

Trying any kind of move, tell me

So what's it gonna prove

You ain't foolin' nobody,

You ain't foolin' nobody,

But yourself

I know you're sweet but I know you don't want to be seen that way

Admit defeat, win or lose, who cares? It's just a game you play

I know you need me, if you stay that way it's never gonna be

You've got your style but I know what you really want from me

Check yourself but don't forget yourself 'cause you're denying

You get everything you are and even everything you need,

that's life, come on, check yourself!

And at that time, I think, BSB was being a boyband phenomenon. I did hope that every member of Spice Girls would end to marry every member of BSB or Boyzone. It was proven a while by Emma Bunton and Stephen Gately’s affair, until Gately’s proven that he’s a gay. Hahaha.

My favorite person in BSB is Bryan. He’s very funny. His voice is deeply touching. He’s very charming!!! Maybe the second place is Kevin when he has a haircut lie in the second album videos [I Want It That Way, Show Me The Meaning of Being a Lonely, Larger Than Life]

As long as u luv me

By: Backstreet Boys

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine

I'm leaving my life in your hands

People say I'm crazy and that I am blind

Risking it all in a glance

And how you got me blind is still a mystery

I can't get you out of my head

Don't care what is written in your history

As long as you're here with me

I don't care who you are

Where you're from

What you did

As long as you love me

Who you are

Where you're from

Don't care what you did

As long as you love me

Every little thing that you have said and done

Feels like it's deep within me

Doesn't really matter if you're on the run

It seems like we're meant to be

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows

But I guess it shows

When you look into my eyes

What you did and where you are comin' from

I don't care, as long as you love me, baby.
