Daughtry Rocks


Dalam banyak2 peserta American Idol, aku rasa Chris Daughtry ni yang paling berjaya kot. Walaupun tak berjaya jadi juara American Idol 5, tapi dia jauh lebih menyerlah daripada juara...errr...sapa nama pompuan yang jadi juara tu, ek? Ermmm...I can't recall...whatever lah...

Siapa sangka kan lepas terkeluar dari American Idol dan lepas tubuhkan kumpulan yang dinamakan atas nama dia sendiri, Daughtry ni boleh berjaya menambat hati peminat2 muzik antarabangsa. Album pertama laku macam pisang goreng...terjual 1 juta dalam 5 minggu dan naik ke no. 1 carta billboard lepas 9 minggu dipasarkan. Untuk album kedua ni pulak, kalau tak silap aku, setakat ni album dia dah berjaya dijual sebanyak 20 juta di seluruh dunia..kalau tak silap la...kalau silap mintak maap ler ye. Album Michael Jackson yang dah beberapa minggu duduk kat no. 1 pun terpaksa mengalah dengan album Daughtry ni...dahsyat tuu...

Jadi, apa yang boleh dibuat kesimpulan atas kejayaan si Daughtry ni? Kesimpulannya kalau kita tak berjaya dalam apa juga benda yang kita nak capai atau buat, tak bermakna kita dah gagal, kan? Tak ada gunanya berkeluh kesah...peluang akan sentiasa ada untuk kita. Yang penting DUIT (Doa, Usaha, Ikhtiar dan Tawakal)...walaupun aku rasa Daughtry tak menggunakan pendekatan DUIT ni...hehe...

Yang penting jugak, kita kena ada arah tujuan yang pasti sebagai perangsang untuk kita berjaya (lebih kepada nasihat untuk diri aku yang pemalas ni...huhu). Bos aku pernah bagi nasihat (nasihat yang diberikan oleh pastor dia kepada dia dan diturunkan kepada aku pulak), "always set our goal to the highest level in whatever we do so that when we are unable to reach high, we can move a step below."

Aku rasa memang betul pun dan aku boleh bayangkan...if we aim low, and in the end we still could not achieved it, we achieved nothing at all...sungguh mengecewakan, kan? Errr...macam mana citer pasal Daughtry ni boleh termelencong ke bahagian motivasi ni pulak, ek? Merepek pulak tengah2 malam ni...tak releven langsung dengan tajuk entri...huhu...

Apa2 hal meh kita layan single daripada album terbaru Daughtry ni...tajuknya what a surprise...eh...silap, tajuknya No Surprise...hehe...



I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
And now I think that I've got it all down
And as I say it louder, I love how it sounds
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Not wrappin' this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why

Chorus
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

It came out like a river once I let it out
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
Held onto it forever, just pushing it down
Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why

Chorus
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
There's nothing here in this soul left to say

Don't be surprise when we hate this tomorrow
God knows we tried to find an easier way
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
That's why this comes as no,
As no surprise

If I could see the future and how this plays out
I bet it's better than where we are now
But after going through this
It's easier to see the reason why

Chorus
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(stayed till today)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

Our favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look that's left your eyes
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
