Brighter than sunshine

I never understood before
I never knew what love was for
My heart was broke, my head was sore
What a feeling

Tied up in ancient history
I didnt believe in destiny
I look up you're standing next to me
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, i don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine

I never saw it happening
I'd given up and given in
I just couldn't take the hurt again
What a feeling

I didn't have the strength to fight
suddenly you seemed so right
Me and you
What a feeling

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.

Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me

What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine

I got a feeling in my soul ..

So this is one of my all-time favorite songs. Don't get me wrong here, I am not in any intimate boy-girl relationship right now or for the past 3 years since then but I really really love the song. I'm sharing this because I'm a kind of none-favorite type of person. Meaning, unlike most people who have favorite color, favorite food, favorite singer, favorite cartoon character etc, the list goes on. I'm not inclined to having favorites in almost every little thing. Except for this song! My Gosh! I can't and will never get over this song. I can listen to it for the rest of the day even if it means I will have a herd time dozing off to sleep. Rest of my life even! Seriously! Actually I'm listening to it while writing this. I can't even put a finger on why I L-O-V-E this song. Kaye loves this song. This is THE favorite among the roster and type of songs that I listen to. I won't even enumerate the reasons why I'm just head over heels about this because even if I do and the list will go on and on and on like that it wouldn't suffice the reason behind me LOVING this!

Oky, I'll try.

1. Brighter than sunshine.

>> The title for me is so cool! It gives the feeling of unlimited limits! Right? What could be brighter than SUNSHINE??

But still, it's more than the title.

2. The lyrics.

>> The lyrics is simple, innocent, straight forward ( in tagalog, "wala nang patumpik2 pa!"), and how do I say this? cute, lambing in a way of surrender.

More, more points coz this ain't just enough.

3. The Melody.

>> the development of the music is just right. Fitting, crisp, not too slow, not too excited to reach the peak, not too complacent either, just right for everything to blend in. GAHD! This is it!

4. The name of the band who sang it. (Is it a band? I'm not even sure.:P) AQUALUNG

>> Diba? It's sooooo COOOLLL!!!!

Anyway, I know the list will go on and still it wouldn't be enough to reason out why this song just makes me.. Oh well, me. :)) HAPPY!
