    (Time - Pink Floyd)

    termenung kejap aku baca post ni..

    those were the days eh...

    Ko tengok lagu2 album2 tu..
    Semua pun best..
    Kiss/Rainbow/Scorpions/Bee Gees dan lain2.

    I will survive huhu..

    zaman tu, its all about music. Rock ke, pop ke, punk khianat ke, aku tak kesah, semua lagu best.

    Skarang ni, terlampau genre based pada aku.

    contoh -ada orang nak jaga imej Metal dia, kena kutuk lagu2 jenis lain gay la apa la. Nasib baik aku exposed ngan muzik zaman dulu bukan sekarang.

    Bro DepLepp,

    ..zaman tu, its all about music,
    yes i agree,

    sebab tu 30 tahun lepas tu music2 ni semua still evergreen,dan yang pasti untuk 30 tahun lagi...

    bolehke lagu 2 sekarang ni evergreen 30 tahun dari sekarang? time will tell...

    "only time will tell,
    I what we have together's gonna last forever more" - (Nelson - Only time will tell).

    nice post bro..

    thn 79 aku darjah 2 (iskh tua dah...hehe)..tak ingat sangat pasal muzik...zaman bebudak kan...tgh sibuk main je...berkubang mandi paya..nyauk ikan..main guli,gasing,layang2,getah gelang,sembunyi ibu dan macam aktiviti la kanak2 zaman tu...those were day..iskh...

    pasal muzik ingat skit2 je...aku lum into lagu2 omputeh sgt...walaupun zaman tu kat rumah aku ada kaset2 rock 70an bapak sedara aku punya...Purple,Bad Company,Uriah Heep,America dll...tapi aku tak ambik port sgt...cuma yang aku ingat sesangat...album Carefree yg ada lagu Rindu Bayangan tu...Kebebasan 2 kot..popular giler lagu ni time tu..

    masih teringat2 membelek2 LP Carefree,Black Dog Bone dan Boney M dll...di rumah jiran..nak pinjam bawak balik LP player kat rumah dah rosak...time tu rumah aku pakai cartridge...

    setuju ngan Deaf...time tu tak taksub genre sangat...Kiss pun main disko.

    deaf-angel said...
