Acid Black Cherry - Nemuri Hime
I heard this song when I fell in love for the first time with Saga Alice Nine. I forgot how I found this song, but I like this song very much since the day I heard it. I love the melody and the lyric. His voice is also unique in my opinion. Every time I play this song, I feel "badump" in my heart so sudden. Maybe because this song remind me about Saga. It's not about the lyric, but because I was falling in love with him.
I enjoyed my life adore Saga in my way. Adoring and loving him somehow up my hope. I think I can be more optimist about my life, stronger, stop being a crybaby, and I believe I can chase my dreams. He really inspiring me. For me, he's really the idol in music.
Thing that made him decided to be a musician was Mr. Children. After listened to their song which was be a drama soundtrack, he finally found his goal. I like to sing. I love to play music. But I have no confident on my own voice. People said I sing well, but I disagree. When I sing by myself in my room, I feel that my voice is really bad. I'm an alto and can't even finish an octaf. That's really bad. I have to use my head voice to sing and sometimes I hate it. I want to improve my technic but I was too lazy to reheasal. Thing I realize hamper me is my voice not coming out. I always hold on my voice, maybe because I'm afraid make it even worse. When I try to unhold it, my voice unstable and I gave up. I shall think again to improve my voice and practice well.
Back then, I always dreaming if I were a singer. Even before entered kindergarten, I've made some songs, in my words. I was cedal back then and maybe people didn't know what exactly the words I said, lol. I played good in flute since the first time I got music lesson in elementary. I did my best when others not. But flute wasn't enough. Even now I',m still dreaming to be able to play piano someday. I know it's too too late to start a piano lesson. That's why I want to be a rich woman then I'll buy piano and hire a teacher for me, lol. In this case, I always think that there's no too late to study. I end up my dream by played pianica and ergh... of course I wasn't satisfied.
My first time held a guitar was in 1st year of JHS. My sister had to play guitar in her class then she started to practice an easy song. She always said that playing guitar is difficult. Sounded like 'You will not able to play it for the rest of your life', lol. But luckily I've made my step because I had to play it too but in last year of my SHS. I proved to myself that play guitar wasn't difficult. But eventhough my playing is so-so until now.
Hey, I talked about ABC's song and Saga but why turned into my depressing life towards music??
I buried my dream to be a singer, but still try to make songs and sing in front of many people. That's why, just voice isn't enough. I must have other ability and I choosed guitar and violin. Sometimes I feel my desire is high and I pratice hard. But sometimes I'm too lazy to practice. I know that's the one which make my singing or playing just so-so.
Saga taught me that there is no border, no limitation. It must be something beyond great. Being great isn't enough. You must try harder eventhough you've already in the peak. Once you take a rest and slow your motion, you'll be one step backward. He alway practice his bass everyday even he had became a star. Even star need higher place. He can play harmonica, guitar, bass, and keyboard. The last one is the lates instrument he play. He proved that there's no too late for learn piano. His playing is good, but you can't compare him with the pro pianist.
That's it. I love his spirit and his point of view in life. As I said before, song isn't just the meaning, but about the feeling. Though the title is "Sleeping Princess", but still the song by itself became my theme song in loving Saga.
Like the lyric said,
Itsumo kimi ga kureta egao de sukoshi tsuyoku nareta (With the smile you always give, I can be a little stronger)
Mou ichido waratte misete (Please let me see your smile once again)
Yes, Saga give me courages. That's why I try to not stop loving and adoring him because like what I said, he's my inspiration.
