The Moffatts - 10 years ago.

i don't even know how we came upon this topic today on messenger
(scott, do you remember?????)
Exactly 10 years ago,
we were 14 years old, in class 2SE.
At the back of a decade old classroom, around 2 small desks,
there were about 7 girls sitting around the desks in a circle,
with no relief teachers in sight, no prefects, no rules no boundaries,
Lay Mien, Lok Mien, Lay Ching, Sook Hui, Ko Yun, Ling Li & Myself,
and with other girls watching, like Kwan Ling & Wei Leng & Sasha .....
while the girls in circles, eyeing each other knowingly, we begin a battle.....
to sing out Moffatts songs one by one in the classroom!!!!!
YEAH! like a MOFFATTS SONG BATTLE....
can you believe how insane were we???

We were battling from Track 1 - 12 plus bonus tracks,
we actually remembered every single track!!!!
every single lyrics, every way to sing, and every expression!
(no wonder our english can improve so fast ler!!!!)
From the na na na's of I'll Be There For You - click here
to the sappy love ballad Miss You Like Crazy - click here
to the song that we scream on top of our lungs CRAZY - click here
to the soooo meaningful final track IF LIFE IS SO SHORT - click here
growing up with them.....after so many years......

and suddenly phasing into a teenage angst period, these tracks developed my taste in rock,
MISERY was a hugeeeee Moffs change!! I even thought I wanna go into the production career to make MTV's after watching it!!! So i started scripting for the next possible track; (seriously, i even send the draft to Amanda Teh my senior, and HRH Kimberly some random girl who claims to be of royal blood related to Prince William, and i bet i was such a toy to her, listening to all her famous family members stories and parties, but somehow secretly believe that its true, cos she did send me really super expensive pendants.....well, i think it is, its kinda like Opal??? ANYWAYS!!!!!) I love this track, so i make an mtv story for it - WRITTEN ALL OVER MY HEART, and it was like played 100 times more on my computer for inspiration over that Celine Dion My Heart Will Go On (and i will die if i hear it one more time!!!)...

and suddenly, life caught up .... and i didnt hear from them until the....SUBMODALITIES era, seriously!!!!!!! thats why my english improve also la, their album name also so canggih, and for the obvious reason that, for every single track, there's a reason for every single word being written, a muse that inspires them to write and write and compose and compose and make it known.... from Bang Bang Boom! - I Don't Want You To Want Me - SPY -Walking Behind - i guess gradually it makes me wanna read more and read, and i begin to like to listen to rock, something really weird i cant comprehend, but it makes total sense why i like limp bizkit, linkin park, hedley, sum41 and more...

isnt it funny...... how times seems to slip away so fast, one minute you're happy, the other you're sad, one minute you're 14, the other you're 24, and for once, even if people still laugh at my taste of music, i actually can tell them, so what??? i grew up with The Moffatts,
and they gave me super lovely great memories about being young, fun, rock, no rules, nothing matters, everything matters, following my dreams, dream big, dream crazy, jump as high as you want, and knowing that when you touch the ground, you have nothing to regret about!

thats MUSIC FOR LIFE, for you!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE THE MOFFATTS!!!!! WITH DOUBLE F, and DOUBLE T!
I DONT CARE IF THEY ARE GEEKY LOOKING TO YOU!!!!!
I LOVE THE MOFFATTS!!! I LOVE CANADIAN MUSIC!!!
I LOVE SCOTT, CLINT, BOB, DAVE!!! I LOVE SCOTTTTT!!!
I LOVE MY CANADIAN BOYFRIEND !!!!!!!!
(that has absolutely nothing to do with music...but simply la...)

im going happily high and high and drunk listening to the album now....
