Oh so long for this night I prayed
That a star would guide you my way
To share with me this special day
Where a ribbon’s in the sky for our love…

I love listening to Stevie’s voice that beautifully flows with the clear sound of piano, especially in the car when I drive to cross the Bay Bridge. If the sky is blue, with this melody the sky looks more blue..

I was waiting for this day: Stevie Wonder Tribute: WONDER-FULL SF @ Mezzanine, December 14, 2009.

It has been raining in San Francisco these days.  Although it was raining so hard this Saturday, Mezzanine was packed – people gather to where good music is, no matter how sadly the sky cries.

I had wonderful weekend thanks to DJ Spinna & Bobbito.  They were having another party at SOM the next day, so I stopped by after the work at gallery & party at Kevin Taylor‘s studio (←this was wonderfull too!).   I was dancing dancing dancing for two nights in a row.  They’ve got vibes, grooves!! Ah.

Music makes me cry.

“Stevie didn’t have to see to believe. All you have to do is listen to believe.”

Yes.

It reminded me of what Bill Withers said in his documentary film, which I saw recently at the film screenings at Poleng Lounge.  Bill was making a song with an blind musician, and he said to him:

“You are disabled in one thing, but you are enabled in so many other things.”

It is so true.  Half full, or half empty.

Right now my brain is occupied by this song: “Young Folks” by Peter, Bjorn and John.  How can I get away from this??
