Music is life (from FM’s blog)


I exercise my vocals every now and then. It is my medicine. Here is a set of pictures Pia took of me. (upon my instructions I prod her to shoot at every opportunity. I always look at the photo journalistic quality of the moment) These "reality" shots are gonna be of value one day. I can use these for the documentary am doing, and probably even a book one day.

I was vocalizing to the new track that we did with Ely B. and THE NEW BAND. Yup, we will have a new band. An album of music, a documentary movie, a foundation, yes all of these will happen. AND I WAS VOCALIZING WHILE TRANSFUSING A PACK OF RBC.

I still hear the voices of Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Tupac Shakur, Kurt Cobain, The Notorious B.I.G. and Frank Sinatra to name a few. And their voices rise from their graves.

I am lucky to have been a recording artist and one day when I leave this world, just like the names I mentioned, my voice will be heard. Always. At a touch of a button or switch, I am "alive" again.

In essence music is life. Music is immortality.


........Kagabi, I was listening to eraserheads - the reunion concert cd. Then I decided to listen to FM instead. I think it’s better. I heard him rapping, as if he were alive, with Gloc9’s Lando and with Parokya ni edgar’s Bagsakan, then eheads’ superproxy. But nothing can beat the sound of Kaleidoscope syempre.

I slept late last night because I was reading francisM’s blogs. I cant help but cry. I just finished reading it this morning. My eyes were swelling.

I realized that life is really too short to waste time. We have to enjoy life's pleasures and pain. Facing reality is scary. But we have to deal with it.

His blog really hit me.
