Most of the CDs in my car are Korean or Chinese.
It's very sad though b/c I love to sing along to music but I can't sing in Korean or Chinese. I'll know certain words or phrases, but it's just not satisfying enough. I want to sing the whole song, every single word. It's like going to a party, but you can't join in on all the fun. It's also like being a bystander that tries to butt in every now and then.
I don't listen to music radio much anymore. It's mostly talk radio or the CDs. I'm not familiar with the new music that's out so I can't sing along with the radio either. Well, unless I tune to the stations that play the older stuff. But then the other day, I was so excited to hear Boys II Men on the radio... I was getting ready to belt it out... but the words slipped from my mind. Oh man! On "End of the Road?!" Sad!
Do you know what I mean about it being such a JOY to sing out every syllable... correctly? Super extra points for getting the right notes, too. Mega huge points if it's from memory. It's like, for those few minutes, you're in sync with the world.

i feel extra in sync when i sing in chinese. hahah!
very pretty.
i like your new layout choice and profile pic.
i like your new layout too. you're such an audiophile. me too =D
i wanna let you borrow coheed and cambria. i think you'll love them! they're so eccentric and talented at the same time. most ppl would say that they're not easy to sing along to, but when you get used to them, you just wanna memorize the lyrics and go beserk.
and how many points do you get for singing the wrong lyrics (eg- mourning into dancing --> morning into dancing) on the wrong pitch, but really really loud?? =D
there's this one time in my life where i was super into daniel something-or-other (chinese singer) that i memorized the chorus to one of his songs and i had no idea what i was singing.
