Now You're Just somebody I used to Know!!!

You are right. I am referring to the Goyte's most recent song which has taken the music world by storm. I was introduced to this song by a dear friend. He told me that he has become addicted to this song and when Goyte won the Grammy's for the same my curiosity was piped.

This song talks about the guy's and girl's version of a break up. The guy originally thought that whatever I say and do the girl will not leave me. Or even if I break up with her I will be fine. On the other hand the girl thinks that he is a manipulator. He takes her for granted and always makes her feel that its her fault. So one fine day she leaves and never looks back. Now the guy is hurt because she treats him as stranger and don't even acknowledges what they have shared.

I feel so connected to this song. I feel that in any broken or unhappy relationship it always happen that one person cares too much and other cares too little. And as my friend put it, guys do have big ego so it becomes difficult for them to say sorry most of the times. The guy in this song too blames everything on the girl and now lament that she has become a stranger.

Whatever it is but I do agree with him regarding the 'closure'. In any relationship there cannot be a clean break. Its not something that u can just throw off. I feel that it needs to have a proper end. It always happens that one party gets more hurt in the process and though the person wont understand it at that time, will always be grateful for the closure in long run.

In any case people drift apart later and move on but if the closure is not there, the hurt and hope always remains which makes difficult for that person to move on is what i feel.

Anyways here are the lyrics of the song

Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
I told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kinda sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing
I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough

No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
Guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

But had me believin it was always something that I'd done

But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know-oh-oh

But you didn't have cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing (oh)
I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
and that feels so rough

(oh)

No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect you records
And then change your number (oh)
Guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Somebody that I used to know
Somebody (now your just somebody that I used to know)
That I used to know
Somebody that I used to know
Somebody (somebody) (now your just somebody that I used to know)
That I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know
I used to know
Somebody

So they now have just 'Become stragers who share same memories'

10 Things - I hate About You

I know its been a while I have been here to talk to you. (This I am saying to my blog) but the best thing is you never crib about it. Thats why I like you best. Anyways I promise I will try to be more active going forward. It just that its so hard to find motivation to get out of the stupor and do something different than a routine. So here is the plan. I will write something atleast once a week and we call it the '10 Things' Series. Its a deal

So today I wanted to write about the Poem '10 Things I hate about you' Its from the movie with the same name. This movie is a Romantic comedy based on shakespeare's book The Taming of the Shrew and has two of my fev actors. Heath Ladger and Julia stiles

I keep having flashes of this movie at odd times. and since last couple of weeks i keep thinking more and more about it. May be because I was watching Dexter season 5 which has Julia Stiles as guest star and this season is amazing. But later on dexter. That will require a dedicated post

So in the end of this movie Julia recites a poem for heath's character. Its mentioned below. I thought with this peom I will start the second journey on the blog



I hate the way you talk to me,

and the way you cut your hair.

I hate the way you drive my car,

I hate it when you stare.

I hate your big dumb combat boots

and the way you read my mind.

I hate you so much it makes me sick,

it even makes me rhyme.

I hate the way you’re always right,

I hate it when you lie.

I hate it when you make me laugh,

even worse when you make me cry.

I hate it when you’re not around,

and the fact that you didn’t call.

But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you,

not even close…

not even a little bit…

not even at all.
