Too much
Was looking for Charminar from the movie Morning Raaga. Though a short piece, the depth of the melody takes me to a different state everytime I listen to it.
At some point of time, in a totally different life, there was a need for a tune to wake up to... something that would help me begin the day in the right spirit and this was the tune of my choice. LOTS of memories associated with this tune.
Anway, searching by the title, I discovered this other song by X-Japan. Pretty good stuff :)
05/30/09 - Finally, an online version of the tune. Such a short piece, but such intensity!

Gloomy Grays
In the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's there a conversation which goes something like this:
"You know those days when you get the mean reds?"
"The mean reds, you mean like the blues? "
"No. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long, you're just sad that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?"
Feels like the mean reds a lot these days or maybe I should call it gloomy grays. Nothing to be afraid of, just a lot of depressing happenings and testing times.
Too much going on, no light... actually not even the proverbial tunnel is in sight. Maybe I'm just too lost to actually notice things. You're in the hope that everything will end - sooner or later.
A break is what I need; Wait is what I will do. In the mean time will try and drive away the gloomy grays with some hard hitting beats.
