behind the mirror

the one behind the mirror
is you
so false
yet so true

i remember those days
everything so new
so false
yet so true

everyday we talked, we walked
down the road, your eyes so blue
so false
yet so true

there were times you said
'I'll do anything for you'
so false
yet so true

i still think
of the lost times
so false
yet so true

one thing I need to say
I'm happy without you
so false
yet so true

the one behind the mirror
is you
so false
yet so true

so true...

Who's to say where the wind will take you
Who's to know what it is will break you
I don't know which way the wind will blow
Who's to know when the time has come around
Don't wanna see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye
- U2

something connects

I've been listening to 'The Reason' album by Hoobastank and, somehow, somewhere, the below lines from the title track connects strongly to the recent past..... wierd(!)

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you...

it SHURE rocks

Music... the way artists intended you to hear. Well, I've been listening to music right from the days when the large LP records used to rule (and Ive got quite a collection of them...!). I've heard music right from the crappy Headphones to the smoothest noise-canceling Bose Headphones. But nothing, absolutely nothing beats SHURE. (www.shure.com)

I got SHURE SCL3 some months back -

and since then I've heard people commenting why do you need such an expensive set of earphones that costs more than what your iPod does! Well, agreed - they are expensive (from 100 USD minimum to 500 USD). But you hear them once, and I guarantee that you wont go back to your normal ear/head phones. I can now hear the same song, and discover new sounds when I hear them repeatedly. Every cymbal, bass, vocal note is crisp and clear. I can hear the acoustic guitar strings vibrating on unplugged albums. I can hear the artist breathing in pauses during vocals. I can make out the difference in an 128 kbps vs 320 kbps vs an cd quality song. And never ever I can hear anything thats going around me because of the amazing noise isolation and canceling technology they've used. I may sound bogus, (probably defending my 150$ purchase! ), but believe me. You wont regret this life-long investment, if you are a true music lover.

Cheers!

I have been lazy lately (!?!??!) to do anything, let alone publish anything here... Just finished uploading some interesting pics... Hopefully will continue to do so from the chinkiland...
