Went for shopping last Sunday and tried to find an album of Roxette, instead I found a CD of Guns N Roses, "Greatest hits". I took a look at the song list at the back side and decided to buy it right a way - all my favorite songs of GNR are included in a CD: Sweet Child o' Mine, Patience, Paradise city, knockin on heaven's door, civil war, Don't cry, November rain, Live and let die. Even though Axl Rose rarely wear pants on stage and has temper problem, his voice has got wide range and can reach into your heart. Especially when he calms down and sings a soft song like Don't cry and November rain, you can feel your heart is turning water and feel like he is singing only for you.

 

People always get surprised when they get to know that I listen to rock, they think my image doesn't match hard rock. Not only angry teenagers and black dressed men listen to rock, OK? Rock is expressing human being's feelings openly and straight forward, it is using both electric and classic instruments and a lot of rock song writers are very talented, that is why a 20, 30 years old rock song can stay fresh and popular until today. Think of a pop song that is playing on the radio over and over again today, after 3 years, how many people will still remember it?

 

I recommended a few rock songs to friend Alex long time ago, he listened to them for a few days and came back to me said "November rain is quite good, but I don't like the last part." I said "the last part is the thing, the climax of the song!" He said "I didn't know you have such a heavy music taste!" The same thing happened last Sunday when I chose this CD, Peter said "Who are you? I didn't know you are a rockis!" SURPRISE~~~

 

I should admit that I am not a really heavy tasted rockis, if you listen to this CD, you'd found that my favorite songs are the relatively soft ones. The songs I often listen to are something like Smells like teen spirit, living on the preyer, iris, nothing else matters... no really hard rock.
