flowers and chocolates…
flowers and chocolates, is a song that was saved in the archives of Star Fm Davao, that they don’t really play. But our good Friend Mark was quite a guy, he plays that song every night for his program slot. it is a sweet song but i really doubt if it had reached the top slots during countdowns. well the song just reminded me of the past days that we could never really live again. what done is done and what has come to pass can not be mended, it can only be rectified by learning but not altering its scenario. well mark got scolded many times by the manager for playing that song, because it was not really popular and it never really pleased the ear of the manager, but i liked it, mark liked it and even my best friend carle who was by the way working for Star Fm(that time) liked it, in short we all liked it. the song was melodic, and it is a story about a lost love, the girl was telling the guy about lost promises and empty prophecies. maybe we liked that song because in a way it showed us the reality of how stupid guys could get at times. flowers and chocolates for the first few days, love songs… and being gone after. sad realization for living a life in romance to bitter endings. i just cant forget those times when we used to listen to that song as mark would play it and we would just stay outside the booth and puff our out with the cigarette we bought around the corner. now its too long gone, mark has his own life, so is carle, and me somewhere in the middle. the song had its short lived fame but for my ears, it will always be a good song to be played.

MALAYA!
