her english is impeccable...as well as her visayan! yes, she is from "sugbu" and since, i promote anything visayan slash mindanaoan. here's my production. i discovered the videos last month during break from people-watching and tempura/kwek-kwek buyers of a hard-working mom-watching near my online spot.
nakurat jud ko ug ayo ( i was so stunned/shocked)
kay bisaya diay sya (because she turned out to be visayan)
kanus-a kaha sya mu ani sa cagayan? (when could she be here in cagayan?)
ampo lang (just pray)
i heard that obama's paternal greatgrandmother was from Cagayan de Oro!!! (breathe 3x) OK, im just pushing my luck this far. But how i wish! obama + cagayan de oro = publicity, right? pure heaven, pure delight, pure buzz!
Lyrics:
oh.. oh yeah
oh baby it's all about you
listen babe
they say that true love is sometimes really hard to find
but the moment that I saw you, I knew
youre one of a kind
and Im hoping that someday in the future
you could be mine, forever
cause before I met you I thought I was doing just fine
you walked my way, a bright summers day
the birds and the bees are humming away
right from the start, you captured my heart
you took all the pain and you tore it apart
you make me wanna sing all night and day
makes me wanna dance all my worries away
gives me butterflies each time I look in your eyes
youre my inspiration
oh baby, the reason Im singing this song
you're my inspiration
you are the reason Im writing this song
you're my inspiration
you are the reason Im writing this song, yeah
my life was a struggle and every time I tried, I was stuck
but you came along and gave me a reason
to never have writer's block
I find words and melodies came easy
never have thought of you, oh baby
our hearts beat in perfect harmony
never again when I ever feel blue
you're my peace of mind in my ups and downs
my fears disappear when you are around
you shine your light on my darkest night
you always find ways to make everything right
you make me wanna sing all night and day
makes me wanna dance all my worries away
gives me butterflies each time I look in your eyes
youre my inspiration
oh baby, the reason Im singing this song
you're my inspiration
the reason Im writing this song
you're my inspiration
you are, baby
when i taught in qing bai jiang in mainland china back in 2002, her MTV was a heavy rotation on TV! what i like about her videos is that: very simple in concept almost blending nature and inner feelings. her name is karen.
