6. When I See You Smile - Bic Runga
So I broke my glasses today.
At this point I should point out that I:
a) wear glasses; a fact that is not so obvious through this medium
and
b) while we're on the topic, I am not a 12 year old kid from Brazil.
Luckily I have enough contact lenses to keep me from colliding into the walls.
Bic Runga is from New Zealand and in famous for inventing the Bic pen. Well that and writing/performing the song 'Sway' a few years back. I liked 'Sway' even though I still can't catch and understand a few of the lines in the song. It was the bit about "tell you why, I say its in from your ???room". Is it "klichroom", "kitroom"? Are those two suggestions even words? I'm guessing no, and I did get a study score of 46 for VCE English so I should know.
However, this song "When I See You Smile" is the first track from her second album, "Beautiful Collision"; the album with incidentally does not include the song "Sway". It happens to me quite often actually, I buy a CD based on a single song by the artist, even though that one song that I actually know and enjoy isn't on the CD. It happened with Bic, and it happened with Natalie Imbruglia with "Torn"/"White Lilies Island CD".
Elseways, I leave for Thailand/Singapore in just a few days. Just a little trip for some R&R from, well doing nothing over here. That's right folks, I'm taking a holiday from taking a holiday. Don't you love the long uni breaks? Gives you enough time to get tired of doing nothing.
But the trip is looking good, I just got to get bag for my body-board, but I met some guys last night who said they can hook me up when I get to Singapore. Aren't they the nicest folks?
