How long can I stay upset at You?
How long can I run away from You?
Where can I go?
Where can I hide?
The earth is still your domain
Will staying angry at You help?
Will giving up on You, make me complete?
I can't deny I still feel empty
I can't deny that I don't feel any better
Could it be that there is something I ought to learn?
Is there a greater plan for me?
Is this a passing trial that I would have to go through
In order to be ready for something bigger?
Could it be, He is moulding the other man
Preparing him to be the perfect man, for me?
Speed your answer I long to hear...
But first. I need to sit and want to listen...
Why Lord, why?
Why a rainbow
If You planned a storm?
Why a clear blue sky
If You planned it to rain with skies so grey
Why Lord? Oh why?
Why do I feel so cheated?
Why do I feel like you don't care?
How could you? Just how could you do this to me?
My heart is heavy, I just can't comprehend...
Why has it to be me?
I hide just because it's so painful to see you
I turn away because I am crying
Give me an answer, for I can't hold any longer
Give me your reason and I'll try to stand again
I may have seem to have lost my trust
I know in my heart it's not suppose to be
For to trust and have faith is what I was taught to do
To love and to worship you was I made for
But... I am just me...
Save me Lord.. and tell me Why Oh Why
Did it have to happen this way
Why Lord... just tell me why...
I went to Nils Wogram & Root 70 Jazz Concert in Wisma Kebudayaan Soka Gakkai Malaysia after work today. Organised by the Goethe-Institut Malaysia in cooperation with Soka Gakkai Malaysia and DBKL. It was great fun that this is the first In-The-Hall-Nice-Cool-Jazzy concert that I'd been to.
Smart, nervy, hard-bitten jazz from a quartet of young players led by the remarkable German trombonist Nils Wogram. Wogram comfortably plays like the roller coaster, geniously composed almost all of the pieces performed. Hayden Chisholm, plays the saxaphone so light that’s given a weird lateral spin. Matt Penman on the big bass so very indulge as if he was dancing with his bass and Jochen Rückert on drums, awesomely off-beat!
The stage before it starts. The hall was great, solid as it's all wooden- the flooring, the stage... you could hear the acoustic!
Nils Wogram & Root 70 in action!
Their performance has got soul. The songs just sink.. and keep sinking into your heart that you could feel them. I went into imagination listening to them.
"If you listen to Bach's work, a lot of it is similar. It is beautiful music with a desire for depth is always preferable to feverishly inventing something new with every record." Nils Wogram.
*A friend of mine whom I shared the other 2 tickets was trying to find the wisma but they couldn't manage to find it even till the last song finished. then, they gave up. Kinda sad that the roads are changed and it was hard to find. But the semangat was really impressive. At last plan B executed. They went to Jalan Alor for food!
