The XX - Shelter

I am addicted to a song for 6 months now. No matter how many times I listened to the song, I never get bored of it. I'm not exactly sure why, but it might be because of the serene vocal, mesmerising music, lyrics that could touch one's soul or maybe it's all of the reasons. I guess it's one of those songs I'll never forget in my life. Here is the lyrics for the song:

Shelter (The XX)

I find shelter, in this way

Under cover, hide away

Can you hear, when I say?

I have never felt this way

நடுவண் (Naduvan)

Recently, I listened to a Tamil song. I was amazed by the song, because it is the first ever Tamil rap religious song that I've listened too! Well, it didn't exactly sound like rap for some reason, but Athiruban Manoharan Naicker, famously known as Dr Burn, has wrote the song very well that he stole my heart. I am just wowed at his excellence in writing and pronouncing Tamil words. The song is basically about Hinduism, or more specifically, Shaivism. I myself am not really familiar with the religion, but the message in the song is basically about life, death and Lord Shiva. Humans make sins, not realising that the body and life that they have is just temporary. God is eternal, and surrendering to Him shall cleanse all the sins from humans. It's something that I've heard many times before. But, like I said, I was amazed by the words Dr Burn picked to convey this message. I tried hard to find the Tamil lyrics for this song (not transliteration of the song lyrics in English, but in actual Tamil words), but I couldn't find any. So, I decided to write out the lyrics in Tamil using Google Transliteration. My Tamil usage has been rusty nowadays, so pardon me if some of the words are spelled wrongly and feel free to comment the right way of writing them. :)

“Love the way you lie – part 2”

I am addicted to “Love the way you lie – part 2”.  I’ve been listening to the song over and over again today.  Every time I listen to the song, I feel the song in my heart.  The lyrics is just awesome and addictive. So, here’s the lyrics for the song.

[Rihanna]
On the first page of our story
the future seemed so bright
then this thing turned out so evil
I don't know why I'm still surprised
even angels have their wicked schemes
and you take that to new extremes
but you'll always be my hero
even though you've lost your mind
