Corrine May

Finally, I have Corrine May's CD.  She's a Singaporean singer-songwriter that is now based in LA.  I first heard her song in a TV series titled Chase.  The song is SAVE ME.  It was her voice then the melody that made me noticed this song.  This was a year ago.  After so many months of postponing to go to the record store and buying this CD, I finally have it.  I just finished listening to all the songs in the album, her second, SAFE IN A CRAZY WORLD.  What's my verdict?  I LOVE IT!  She definitely has the gift to write and create songs.  There's this one song entitled ANGEL IN DISGUISE.  The song made me cry.  It made me realized that amidst all the bad things that is happening in this world, there will always be something or someone that is good and will love us for who we are.  HUHUHU!

I'm a believer of angels, actually, but it's been a while since the last time I have experienced pure goodness coming from a person.  In my 27 years in this world, I think I can only recall 2-3 instances where I've said to Sha that that person must be an angel.

I'm writing down the lyrics of the song.  I don't know if it will give you the feeling I had when I heard the song but the message is clear.

ANGEL IN DISGUISE
I woke up this morning feeling kind of blue
and I stumbled out of bed and
dragged my feet across the room
Right outside my front door was a rose
and a note that said 'Somebody Loves You'

But out on the street it starts to pour
and before I get soaking wet,
A total stranger runs to give me
the jacket off his back
I turn around to thank him
But he waves me with a smile
I can hardly believe my eyes
He puts on a halo and starts to fly

Take a look at the ordinary
Don't need to look at Paradise
You could be next to
an angel in disguise

I met a good friend for lunch
and we had a delicious meal
But I forgot to bring my wallet
I felt like an imbecile
But she was sweet, she gave me a treat and
Bought me a chicken sandwich
To take home for tea

But on the street with nothing to eat
A man and his shopping cart go
Travelling to places
Collecting social graces
I give him my sandwich
and we chatter for a while
I see a rainbow wash over his eyes
He gives me his halo and
I start to fly
