Pertama dan satu-satunya di Indonesia kursus

Microsoft Elearning yang mendapatkan sertifikat asli dari Microsoft

Microsoft Elearning Courses bukanlah produk dari Multiplus maupun Wiz. Produk ini merupakan produk Asli dari Microsoft USA. Seluruh modul yang ada dalam MELC asli lahir dari para punggawa Microsoft.

Mungkan kamu akan bertanya-tanya, apa bedanya kursus di MELC dengan kursus konvensional di tempat-tempat yang lain seperti Universitas ternama komputer, Perguruan Tinggi (belum punya nama) komputer, Lembaga Pendidikan Komputer antah berantah.

Untuk menjawab pertanyaan kamu, saya ingin kamu menjawab siapa yang paling mengenal apapun tentang kamu. Jika pertanyaan itu untuk saya, saya akan menjawab orang yang paling mengenal diri saya adalah orang tua saya.

Jadi jika kamu ingin mengetahui tentang produk Microsoft (baca Microsoft XP, Vista, Office 2007) maka kamu harus belajar dari institusi yang paling mengetahui Microsoft. Siapa yang paling mengetahui Microsoft, Microsoft lah yang paling mengetahui Microsoft. Ya iyaaaaa laaaaahh anak kecil juga tau :-P . Makanya jangan belajar dari institusi yang “katanya” mengetahui Microsoft belajarlah dengan Institusi yang “absolute” mengetahui tentang Micorsoft yakni MELC.

Tahukah Kamu?

- Saat ini 75% dari karyawan diwajibkan mampu mengoperasikan Microsoft Office (IDC Jan 2007)

- Orang yang meningkatkan digital literacynya memiliki kesempatan dan keuntungan lebih besar mendapatkan peluang kerja (Spreadwiki)

- 58% responden percaya bahwa memahami internet akan meningkatkan income mereka (Swa)

- 95% responden setuju bahwa keterampilan komputer dasar utama yang harus dikuasai sebelum masuk ke dalam dunia kerja adalah aplikasi Microsoft Office (FGD Multiplus )

Manfaat MELC

- Sertifikat ASLI dari Microsoft

- Waktu belajar  yang fleksibel

- Biaya sangat terjangkau

- Suasana belajar nyaman

- Mudah, dapat diakses di gerai Multiplus & Wiz

Berapa Biaya MELC

1. Course 4119 : Core Training for Microsoft® Windows XP Profesional® Service Pack 2 $ 14.99

2. Course 5419: Getting Started with Microsoft® Office Word® 2007 $ 14.99

3. Course 5420: Editing & Proofreading Documents Microsoft® Office Word® 2007 $ 14.99

4. Course 5421: Formatting Documents in Microsoft® Office Word® 2007 $ 14.99

5. Course 5425: Getting Started With Microsoft® Office Excel® 2007 $ 14.99

6. Course 5426: Performing Calculations on Data in Microsoft® Office Excel® 2007 $ 14.99

7. Course 5431: Getting Started with Microsoft® Office PowerPoint® 2007 $ 14.99

8. Course 5432: Working with Slides in Microsoft® Office PowerPoint® 2007 $ 14.99

9. Course 5437: Getting Started with Microsoft® Office Outlook® 2007 $ 14.99

10. Course 5438:Working with E-mail Messages in Microsoft® Office Outlook®2007 $ 14.99

11. Course 6081: Windows Vista Essentials® $ 14.99

Total biaya untuk 11 modul adalah $ 165 (kalau dirupiahkan sekitar Rp 1,8 juta). Harga ini bukan harga yang saya patok seenaknya seperti  e-book-e-book yang bergentayangan di internet. Yang  mematok harga sekian puluh ribu, sekian ratus ribu yang sebenarnya harganya tidak semahal yang disebutkan. Harga 1,8 juta merupakan harga resmi dari Microsoft. Kalo ga percaya silakan cek saja sendiri di situs Microsoft, masukan kode kursusnya.

Mau pinter aja mahal banget ya biayanya, tapi kamu pasti taulah berapa biaya pendidikan di Jakarta.

Jika kamu diberi kesempatan untuk “menawar” agar dapat mengikuti MELC, berapa harga yang dapat kamu bayar?  Apakah 1,5 juta masih kemahalan, kalau masih kemahalan gimana kalau langsung dikasih diskon 50% jadi 900 ribu.  Masa sich sudah didiskon 50% masih kemahalan?!.

Berapa sich harga kursus Microsoft Office?! Biaya kursus konvensional berkisar 300-500 ribu yang notabenenya kompetensi pengajar dan kurikulumnya belum standar internasional. Dan belum tentu ketika kamu melamar pekerjaan, HRD yang akan menyeleksi kamu mengenal institusi atau tempat kamu kursus. Lain halnya jika di MELC, siapa yang tidak kenal dengan Microsoft, dan bayangkan kamu  akan mendapat prioritas dibanding pelamar yang lain hanya dikarenakan sertifikat kamu Asli dari Microsoft.

Dengan harga pasaran kursus konvensional sebesar 300–500 ribu, saya beranggapan bahwa kamu sanggup bayar dengan harga tersebut. Kali ini saya berikan penawaran istimewa bagi kamu, saya berikan kamu harga yang lebih murah, 11 modul tersebut bisa kamu dapatkan hanya dengan RP. 275.000 dan harga khusus buat mahasiswa/pelajar hanya Rp.165.000. Dan ingat dengan harga tersebut kamu bisa mendapatkan Sertifikat Microsoft Asli dari Microsoft langsung.

Jangan ragu-ragu untuk menjadi pintar dan mengetahui Microsoft langsung dari Microsoft, bukan dari tempat kursus yang lain yang modul dan sertifikatnya  kurang dikenal.

Delapan bulan sejak memenangi kontes nyanyi American Idol (AI) musim ke 7, David Roland Cook atau lebih dikenal dengan David Cook sepertinya tambah sibuk aja mempromosikan debut albumnya yang udah rilis  November ‘08 itu.

Pada 13 februari hingga 25 april mendatang Cook akan ngadain tour keliling negrinya, bahkan diantaranya dia akan berkunjung ke kampus2. Cook bilang, ada rasa nostalgia tersendiri dengan tour ke kampus2, seperti masa2 awal dulu, ia merasa senang bisa melakukan itu.

Debut album Cook bertitel namanya sendiri, David Cook. Dalam kurun waktu yang tidak lama, album Cook tersebut berhasil menempati peringkat tiga di chart Billboard. Sementara single unggulannya Light On, berhasil nangkring di posisi 28 top 40 songs of 2008 VHI.

Sebelum ikut American Idol, Cook sebenernya pernah merilis album solo yang bertajuk Analog Heart (2006) yang berhasil memenangi penghargaan Urban Tulsa Weekly Award for Indie album. Tapi lewat AI-lah nama Cook dikenal banyak orang.

Keberhasilan Cook di bidang nyanyi, sepertinya belum sejalan dengan kisah asmaranya. Cook yang sempet nge-date sama Kimberly Caldwell (kontestan american idol musim ke – 2) harus kecewa karena hubungannya berakhir. Sohib Cook, Michael John, yang juga temen seperjuangannya di AI season 7 bilang, “sejak hubungannya berakhir, dia kini punya seekor puppy yang selalu menemani hari2nya, a little scottish terrier gitu. Namanya Dublin or something.” Hehe… rocker juga manusia…….

Di awal tahun baru ini Cook dapet kehormatan kalo foto dirinya terpampang di almanak tahunan negaranya (tahun 2009), bareng dengan Obama dan McCain. (berbagai sumber)

Berikut beberapa Lirik lagu dari Cook :

From  debut album : David Cook

LIGHT ON

Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

TIME OF MY LIFE

I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something

I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

Holding onto things and vanished
Them to the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life

And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun

And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
Life
Time of my life
Time of my life

AVALANCHE

I feel alive beside you
And all at once
I am whole again
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere
Is all I’m breathing in
And in this rush
We are crushed

Carry me down
Rolling in your arms
Cause I can’t remember
Ever falling this time
Tell me tonight,
All that we have been
Was it nothin’ more
Than noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
In your avalanche

These scars we wear remind us
The more we change
The more we’re all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We fumble through and make the same mistakes
Cause we are led
To the edge

Carry me down
Rolling in your arms
Cause I can’t remember
Ever falling this time
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin’ more
Than noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche

Crashing down, crashing down,

Carry me down
Rolling in your arms
Cause I can’t remember
Ever falling this time
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin’ more
Than noise inside my head

Carry me down
Rolling in your arms
Cause I can’t remember
Ever falling this time
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin more
Than noise inside our heads
Crashing down, crashing down…

Was it nothing more
Than noise inside our heads
Crashing down
Crashing down

I feel alive beside you
Than all at once I am whole again…

A DAILY ANTHEM

Break your neck for some substance
This is temporary sanity, an exercise in vanity
So long, to the ordinary day wrought with fictitious tales
Of how there’s any other way
Hold on to anything at all
It’s a long way down between the summer and the fall
If I told you that you’re everything,
Would you sing along?
Would you sing along?
It’s a daily anthem
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we’ll all sing along,
We’ll all sing along
It’s a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I’ve learned,
Never deserved.
And we’ll all sing along,
We’ll all sing along
Now the verses take hold,
A gentle undercurrent or more years to grow old
Say goodbye to the cold
And try to begin everything: there’s life
As we sing your daily anthem,
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we’ll all sing along,
We’ll all sing along
It’s a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I’ve learned,
Never deserved.
And we’ll all sing along,
We’ll all sing along
~~~

BAR-BA-SOL

When I woke up I could see
The daylight had already passed me
It was such a fight to fade away asleep
It’s a fugue

Come on
Found to chase down the dawn
And I fell every night as it turns
Into light with my eyes just shut tight
Sailing all alone
I thought I made it home
But I threw it all away

Oh I leave myself strong now
I suppose it’s not a dream
Falling in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous
I know just what I did to deserve this
Though I know it’s not a dream
Keeping quiet

Laying low
Holding on to what I don’t want to know
Till the daylight turns to ash and blows away
Missing keys
Bloody nose
Consequences of what I chose

Keep an eye on me
Don’t all my memory
Cause it’s definitively

~~~

COME BACK TO ME

you say you gotta go and find yourself
you say that you’re becoming someone else

whenever you need me
i’ll wait for you

i’ll set you free
and when you see what you need to see
when you find you come back to me

and when you see what you need to see
when you find you come back to me

and i hope you find everything that you need
i’ll be right here waiting to see

DECLARATION

I’ll take you just the way you are
imperfect words inside the perfect song
I feel you closer than you are
I’ve been waiting far too long
too long

It’s my declaration
to anyone whose listening
you’re my inspiration
as I stand alone against the world
Cause you love

Can you bleed (?)
cause you stole my soul
and set me free
it’s my declaration

do you care what i believe
or that i wear a heart upon my sleeve
sometimes i think you never knew
the only truth i see is you
it’s you

It’s my declaration
to anyone whose listening
you’re my inspiration
as I stand alone against the world
Cause you love

Can you bleed
cause you stole my soul
and set me free
it’s my declaration

And are there any words to say
that i would ever mean enough
when the light runs from the day
will the darkness be too much
will i ever be enough

it’s my declaration
to anyone whose listening
You’re my inspiration
as i stand alone against the world
Cause you love

Can you bleed
and you stole my soul
and set me free

It’s my declaration
so tell me you can hear
these words tonight

It’s my declaration

~~~

HEROES

As the sun goes down in front of me
It reminds of me of where I want to be
With you and you alone
Pulled me in like you were made for me
I’m losing faith in gravity
I just need to let you know
And I just need to let you know

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing

You’re still standing

When the world’s confusing
I don’t care
I crawl into your atmosphere
I know you’ll make it right
You’re all I need to know

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing

I believe that you can save me
And you’ll never let me fall
I believe in what you’ve shown me
Maybe there’s a hero in us all

I’m not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
I’m not gonna come down

Not gonna come down
But you’re still standing
All these heroes come and go
But you’re still standing
All these heroes come and go…..

I DIT IT FOR YOU

Today’s
Not the same
As every day
It’s far
From ordinary
The pain I endure
You’re my cure
But my mistakes
Have led me
Far away from you

You turn away
From all those things
That I’ve been
Trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn’t have made
I did it for you

My open mind feelings
I just can’t reconcile
My heart’s on a string
these broken wings
You knew
I’d be so fragile
Far away from you

You turn away
From all those things
That I’ve been
Trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn’t have made
I did it for you

I searched my soul
and all these feelings
that I can’t control
and you’re the one thing
that can make me whole
I did it for you

Try to let you know
Try to let you know
Try to let you know

Today is not the same
As everyday
It’s far from ordinary

You turn away
From all those things
That I’ve been
Trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn’t have made
I did it for you

Oh I searched my soul
and all these feelings
that I can’t control
and you’re the one thing
that can make me whole
I did it for you
I did it for you
I did it for you

You’re the one thing
That can make me whole
I did it for you

LIE

You whispered that you were getting tired,
Got a look in your eye,
Looks a lot like goodbye.
Hold on to your secrets tonight.
Don’t want to know I’m ok with this silence
It’s truth that I don’t want to hear

You’re hiding regret in your smile
There’s a storm in your eyes that’s been passing for awhile
Hold on to the past tense tonight
Don’t say a word,
I’m ok with the quiet.
The truth is gonna change everything.

So lie to me and tell me that it’s gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we’ll make it through the night
I don’t mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
Lie, lie, lie.

Lie, lie, lie.

I know that there’s no turning back.
If we put too much light on this we’ll see through all the cracks.
Let’s stay in the dark one more night.
Don’t want to know I’m ok with the silence.
It’s truth that I don’t want to hear.

So lie to me and tell me that it’s gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we’ll make it through the night
I don’t mind if you wait before you tear me apart
So look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.

Don’t want to believe in this ending
Let the cameras roll on,
Keep pretending
Tomorrow’s all wrong if you walk away
Just stay

So lie to me and tell me that it’s gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we’ll make it through the night
I don’t mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.

So lie to me and tell me that we’re gonna be ok
So lie to me and tell me that we’ll make it through the day
I don’t mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.

LIFE ON THE MOON

Here in this crowd I’m feeling all alone
Turn me around and point me back to home
I’m getting lost more everyday
And I can’t tear myself away
From the stars in my eyes with no light

Here are my thoughs, have some faith in me
And I’ll let you be who you need to be

Life on the moon, could it be that stranger?
life on the moon, would it feel this far away?
The life that I knew is trough
And I’m gonna need you more than ever
I’m alone in this crowded room
Is the life on the moon

Flown off the ground my head’s up in the air
So counsiouns to the fault with all the pople everywhere
Is getting harder everynight, to take the punches left and right
Just to know that you are here by my side

Here are my thoughs, have some faith in me
and I’ll let you be who you need to be

Life on the moon, could it be that stranger?
life on the moon, would it feel this far away?
The life that I knew is trough
And I’m gonna need you more than ever
I’m alone in this crowded room
Is the life on the moon

Getting lost in my own atmosphere
Stars in the sky all the stars in my eyes
Is the cost of getting out of here alive

Life on the moon, could it be that stranger?
life on the moon, would it feel this far away?
The life that I knew is trough
And I’m gonna need you more than ever
I’m alone in this crowded room
Is the life on the moon

MR. SENSITIVE

Day in and day out
Watch him scream
Watch him shout through the silence
Through the silence
Give him ears
Give him eyes
Give some point to the cries and the violence
Oh, the violence
Hear him scream your name

I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The words, he’ll never let the words
Get the best of him
Get the best of him

This city feels low
Against the gleam and the glow
Of his diligence
To their elegance
Just feel anger, feel pain
Feel the sun and the rain
Just feel something
Oh, feel something
Hear him scream your name

I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The words, the words
He’ll never let the words
Get the best of him
Take all the stones
The bricks, the bones
He didn’t stand a chance they said
A little boy but ignorance is bliss

~~~

PERMANENT

Is this the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my broken promise
That you’ll never see me cry
And everything, it will surely change
Even if I tell you I won’t go away today
Will you think that you’re all alone
When no one’s there to hold your hand?
And all you know seems so far away
And everything is temporary
Rest your head
I’m permanent

I know he’s living in hell every single day
And so I ask oh god is there some way
For me to take his place
And when they say it’s all touch and go
I wish I could make it go away
But still you say
Will you think that you’re all alone
When no one’s there to hold your hand?
When all you know seems so far away
And everything is temporary
Rest your head
I’m permanent
I’m permanent

Is the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my promise
That you’ll never see me cry

I DON’T WANT TO MISS A THING

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you’re far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
When every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure.

I don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
’cause I’d miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.
’cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do
I’d still miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.

Lying close to you, feeling your heart beating
And I’m wondering what you’re dreaming
Wondering if it’s me you’re seeing
And then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we’re together
I just wanna stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever

I don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
’cause I’d miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.
’cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do
I’d still miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.

I don’t wanna miss one smile
I don’t wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you, right here with you,
Just like this
I just wanna hold you close
And feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment for all the rest of time
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
’cause I’d miss you babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.
’cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do
I’d still miss you babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.

I don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
’cause I’d miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.
’cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do
I’d still miss you, babe,
And I don’t wanna miss a thing.

Don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep, yeah
And I don’t wanna miss a thing

THE MUSIC OF THE NIGHT

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences

*Softly*, gently night unfurls it’s splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darkest side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night, of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night

BILLIE JEAN

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said don’t mind, but what do you mean I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round
She said I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

People always told me be careful what you do
Don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts
My mother always told me be careful who you love
Be careful what you do ’cause the lie becomes the truth, yeah

Billie Jean is not my lover
She is just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son

For forty days and for forty nights the law was on her side
But who can stand when she’s in demand, her schemes and her plans
’cause we danced on the floor in the round
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
Do think twice

She told my baby we danced ’til three
And she looked at me, and showed me a photo
My baby cried, his eyes where like mine
Can we dance on the floor in the round

People always told me be careful what you do
Don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts
But she came and stood right by me
Just to smell her sweet perfume
This happened much too soon
She called me to her room

Billie Jean is not my lover
She is just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid is not my son
Not my son

Billie Jean is not my lover
She is just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one, but the kid’s not my son
Not my son

ELEANOR RIGBY

Eleanor Rigby,
Picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream, waits at the window,
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie,
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near, look at him working,
Darning his socks in the night when there’s nobody there
What does he care

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Ah, look at all the lonely people
(All the lonely people)
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby,
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie,
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

HELLO
I’ve been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I’ve kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you’re looking for?

I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You’re all I’ve ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
‘Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you…

‘Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven’t got a clue
But let me start by saying,
Hello… Is it me you’re looking for

~~~

HUNGRY LIKE A WOLF

Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a fire
Do do do-do do do-do do do-do do do-do doo doo
Woman, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do-do do do-do do do-do do do-do doo doo

In touch with the ground
I’m on the hunt, I’m after you
Smell like I sound, I’m lost in a crowd
And I’m hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I’m on the hunt, I’m after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I’m hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I’ll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do-do do do-do do do-do do do-do doo doo
High blood drumming on a skin, it’s so tight
You feel my heat, I’m just a moment behind
Do do do-do do do-do do do-do do do-do doo doo

In touch with the ground
I’m on the hunt, I’m after you
Scent and a sound, I’m lost and I’m found
And I’m hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it’s discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I’m after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And I’m hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I’m on the hunt, I’m after you
I smell like I sound, I’m lost and I’m found
And I’m hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it’s discord and rhyme
I’m on the hunt, I’m after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I’m hungry like the wolf

~~~

I’M ALIVE

Take a walk, you can hardly breathe the air
Look around, it’s a hard life everywhere
People talk, but they never really care
On the street, there’s a feeling of despair

But every day, there’s a brand new baby born
And every day, there’s the sun to keep you warm
And it’s alright
Yeah, it’s alright

I’m alive
And I don’t care much for words of doom
If it’s love you need well I got the room
It’s a simple thing that came to me when I found you
I’m alive
I’m alive

Every night, on the streets of Hollywood
Pretty girls want to give you something good
Love for sale, it’s a lonely town at night
Therapy for a heart misunderstood

But look around, there’s a a flower on every street
And look around, and it’s growing at your feet
And everyday,
You can hear me say,

I’m alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I got love and love is all I really need to live
I’m alive
I’m alive

And every day, there’s a brand new baby born
In every way, there’s enough to keep you warm
And it’s okay,
And I’m glad to say,

I’m alive
And I don’t care much for words of doom
If it’s love you got, well I got the room
It’s a simple thing that came to me when I found you

I’m alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I got love and love is all I really need to live

I’m alive,I’m alive

I’m alive
And I don’t care much for words of doom
If it’s love you need, well I got the room
It’s a simple thing that came to me
And I thank God I’m alive
I can take all that life has got to give
If I got someone to share it with
I got love and love is all you really need

INNOCENT

Oh Johnny wishes he was famous,
Spends his time alone in the basement,
With a Lennon and Cobain and,
A guitar and a stereo.
While he wishes he could escape this,
But it all seems so contagious,
Not to be yourself and faceless,
In a song that has no soul.

I remember feeling low,
And I remember losing hope,
And I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

Jina’s losing faith in what she knows,
Hates her music, hates all of her clothes,
Thinks of surgery, and a new nose,
Every calories a war.
While she wishes she was a dancer,
And that she’d never heard of cancer,
She wishes God would give her some answers,
And make her feel beautiful.

I remember feeling low,
And I remember losing hope,
And I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

One day,
You’ll have to let go,
You’ll have to let it go,
No,
One day,
You’ll stand up on your own,
You’ll stand up on your own.
Yeah.
Remember losing hope,
Remember feeling low,
Remember all the feelings and the day the stopped.

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.
We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent,
We are, we are.

One day,
You’ll have to let go,
You’ll have to let it go,
No,
One day,
You’ll stand up on your own,
You’ll stand up on your own.

We are, we are all innocent

LITTLE SPARROW

Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain.

All ye maidens, heed my warning
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend.

They will vow to always love you
Swear no love but yours will do
Then they’ll leave you for another
Break your little heart in two.

Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain.

If I were a little sparrow
O’er these mountains I would fly
I would find you, I would find you
Look into your lying eyes.

I would flutter all around you
On my little sparrow wings
I would ask you, I would ask you
Why you let me love in vain.

I am not a little sparrow
I am just the broken dream
Of a cold, false-hearted lover
And your evil, cunning scheme.

Little sparrow, little sparrow
Precious fragile little thing
Little sparrow, little sparrow
Flies so high and feels no pain.

All ye maidens fair and tender
Never trust the hearts of men
They will crush you like a sparrow
Leaving you to never mend.

Oh the sorrow never ends

Beberapa lama ngilang, Marcello Tahitoe atau ello ternyata kini balik lagi dengan album teranyarnya  (realistis/idealis) dan nelurin single pertama yang berjudul Masih Ada… ello t’nyata emang masih ada, ga pergi kemana2, kirain ello kemana gituh, kok ga ada kabarnya, smua orang nyariin ello tau ga seh, seharusnya kan ello ga ngilang.. (hehe.. lebay)… Masih ada ternyata cukup asik dan energetik, yah, khasnya ello-lah (tapi kayaknya ada influence dari John Mayer yah, ato hanya pendapat gue aja, hehe)

Ello yang udah nyelesain kul-nya di diploma periklanan UI dikenal di blantika musik tanah air lewat tembang daur ulang ciptaan bokapnya (tau kan siapa bokapnya?! kalo nggak tau nanya aja sama tetangga sebelah, hehe) yang bertajuk pergi untuk kembali (rilis tahun 2005).

Dari album yang memuat pergi untuk kembali (yang bertitel namanya sendiri itu) ello dapet dua penghargaan dari AMI (Anugerah Musik Indonesia) yaitu untuk kategori album terbaik juga pendatang baru terbaik, kabarnya album ello laku terjual sampe 150 ribu copy.

Eh, ngomong2 di tangan kanan Ello ada tato angka bertuliskan 4 : 20  gituh (perlu ga sih dibahas?!), ya udah perlu, kata ello itu angka maksudnya  adalah jam, nunjukin waktu sore hari, bahwa sore hari dimulai jam segitu, dimana waktu segitu, matahari lagi bagus2nya…. wah baru tau ello suka matahari….

Back to ello’s album, realistis/idealis, menurut gue secara keseluruhan, ello sangat ekspresif di album ini. Album ini penuh warna. Lagu nge-beat hayu, yang melow pastinya hayu, reagge juga hayu.

Yang mo denger suara melownya ello, simak deh Tak Kan Ada Aku Lagi, hm.. lumayan dalem. Truz yang mo jadi anak pantai kayak Steven & Coconut Treez, (hehe), bisa ber-reagge ria di Gara-Gara Kamu. Last but not least, gue suka bangets Joni, Rock & Roll.

Ok deh, moga single masih ada bisa sukses seperti single pergi untuk kembali dan single2 sebelumnya, sukses buat ello… (berbagai sumber).

lirik Masih Ada-nya ello :

Hari-hariku lewati hanya sendiri tanpa kekasih
Tapi tetap kunikmati indahnya hari tanpa tambatan hati

Reff:
Aku ingin menjadi setitik awan kecil di langit
Bersama mentari
Walaupun kusendiri tapi aku masih ada
Masih ada cinta dihati

Kadang aku merindukan
Merindukan sentuhan
Sentuhan wanita

Ingin ku curahkan semua
Semua hasrat dijiwa
Yang t’lah lama ku pendam

Back to Reff:

Hari-hari kulewati hanya sendiri tanpa kekasih
Walaupun kusendiri tapi ku masih bisa bahagia

~~~

Gara-Gara Kamu

O… ooh..

tak senyata yang kurasa, semuanya itu palsu

karna kamu, gara-gara kamu

kau racuni hatiku dengan bisa manismu

kau buatku berharap dengan janji2mu

karna kamu… u… u..uh, gara-gara kamu 2x

o…ooh…. oo…ooh

sesaknya hati ini, saat kau bilang cinta

akan kulakukan apapun asal jauh darimu

kau tinggalkan aku sendiri

dan biarkan sepi membunuh hati

untuk mencari pengganti dirimu

karna kamu, gara-gara kamu

~~~

Joni, Rock & Roll

tapi hidupnya makin, makin hari

makin rock n roll

tiap hari, oh rock n roll

biar semua terus terjadi, biar sepi

semakin menyepi

aku ingin, ingin pergi

pantai-suwuk1wah… liburan yang seru bareng dua keponakan, yang kadang2 bandel, kadang2 manis, yaitu ryan dan sandy.

Ga nyangka kalo di kampung ponakan gue, Ryan, ada pantai yang lumayan indah untuk dikunjungi, namanya pantai suwuk. Nih pantai letaknya sebelah2an ama karangbolong, nih karangbolong letaknya sebelah2an sama warung es kopyor, hehe.. maksudnya, karangbolong terletak di sebelah selatan Kebumen, sebuah kota kecil, yang kadang2 ada di peta, kadang2 enggak, tepatnya di wilayah Jawa Tengah sono.

Jadi, bagi kamu yang secara nggak sengaja kesasar ke daerah sana, ga ada salahnya mampir ke pantai suwuk. Biaya masuk murah banget loh, cuma 1500 rupiah aja, kadang2 kalo petugas tiketnya ga liat, bisa masuk tanpa bayar… hahaha… kiding.

Di pantai suwuk,  terdapat juga beberapa binatang yang sengaja dipelihara di sana, ada kijang, siamang, berbagai jenis unggas , dan bahkan musang juga ada. Ombak di pantai suwuk lumayan gede, jadi cukup berbahaya juga untuk berenang,  tapi ga pa2, maen air di pinggir pantai juga cukup seru. Makanan khas yang ada di sana paling pecel, mendoan, bakwan udang dan temen2nya. Poko’nya nice place to visit….

o,ya kelupaan, met tahun baru to all my friends… makasih banyak yg udah ngirim SMS yah, lup yu all…. moga tahun 2009 ini lebih baik segala2nya bagi kita, amien. Moga pemilu kita sukses, moga presiden yang terpilih, bener2 yg terbaik, moga krisis ekonomi cepet berlalu, moga penghasilan gue tambah gede (hehe, ngarep), moga serangan israel ke palestina ga terjadi lagi.

malem, lidah gue dah kebakar (secara kepanasan, hehe)

di sini gunung di sana gunung

di tengah-tengah ada kali

lo bingung, gw bingung

mikirin nama itu kali


makan cabe rasanya pedes

cabe diganti sama merica

kalo tampang lo terus judes

gw sambit lo pake merica


metik mangga, mangga si manalagi

terus mangganya dibawa ke balaraja

karna harga BBM udah naik lagi

makan bubur ayam di pagi hari
buburnya bubur bang somad

karna yang jualan emang cuma bang somad

makan makaroni rasanya asin
itu makaroni emang dicampur garem sama si Yanto

Metik buah dimasukin peti
Gak lupa diikat tali
Gue bingung setengah mati
Knapa buahnya dimasukin peti

Di sana macet disini macet
Gak tau harus lewat mana
Aduh kaki gue pada lecet
Karma ketabrak bajaj pas macet

Buah mangga rasanya asem
Buah strawberry juga asem
Buah kedondong lebih asem
Trus yang manis buah apa dong?!

Buah salak, buah kedondong
Beli bunga dimasukin pot
Jangan manja dong!
Gitu aja kok repot

Bulan puasa pada haus
Dapet pahala, itu yang dituju
Tampang boleh sangar kayak candil seurius (heheh.. peace!)
Tapi hati selembut salju
