What are words by Chris Medina

One of the nicest songs I have listen to recently. Really quite an emotional song. For those who didn’t know the backstory behind the song, Chris Medina was one of the contestants for S10 of American Idol, and he released this song after his elimination, which is basically written for his financee who suffered a brain injury during a car wreck. Now with that backstory in mind. Enjoy. Anywhere you are, I am near Anywhere you go, I’ll be there Anytime you whisper my name, you’ll see How every single promise I keep Cuz what kind of guy would I be If I was to leave when you need me most What are words If you really don’t mean them When you say them What are words If they’re only for good times Then they don’t When it’s love Yeah, you say them out loud Those words, They never go away They live on, even when we’re gone And I know an angel was sent just for me And I know I’m meant to be where I am And I’m gonna be Standing right beside her tonight And I’m gonna be by your side I would never leave when she needs me most What are words If you really don’t mean them When you say them What are words If they’re only for good times Then they don’t When it’s love Yeah, you say them out loud Those words, They never go away They live on, even when we’re gone Anywhere you are, I am near Anywhere you go, I’ll be there And I’m gonna be here forever more Every single promise I keep Cuz what kind of guy would I be If I was to leave when you need me most I’m forever keeping my angel...

Just take a look at Lunar New Year celebrations, Mid Autumn festival, Hungry Ghost month, and even simple things like Wedding banquets. There’s always lots of colours, bright lights, massive crowds, and tons of noise. In all, a sense of bustling joyous activity. Being the hungry ghost month currently, there are actually 5-10 ‘getais’ happening daily around Singapore. You would probably need to buy the chinese newspapers to get the schedule and location though. These ‘getais’ or literally, song stage, are a form of free performances done for the ‘brothers and sisters’ who are released from the spirit realm during the hungry ghost month. But that said, it is always packed with people too! Recently I have a sudden craving for these performances. The friendly banter among the emcees, the dances and hokkien songs, the bright lights and  the large bustling crowds  somehow create a kind of atmosphere that’s different from say a music festival organised for the young adult crowd.
