Yeah..I'm talking about Taylor Swift. Everyone should know who she is after the Kanye outburst. But she came back strong after that incident.
I admit that I currently like this country chick as my favourite artist. She's really an artist on fire at the moment, bagging loads of awards and no 1 hits. At 19, she has achieve more that what a regular 19 year olds do.
I have the Fearless album. Usually, I only like few songs from albums of any singers, but I actually like all of her songs. Really soothing and nice to hear. I'm sure a lot of you have heard Love Story, You Belong with Me an Fifteen already,but try to listen to the rest such as Fearless and White Horse. Highly recommended.
Back to the title, why influence? Well, she has a song that she featured on. 2 Is Better Than 1, a song by Boys Like Girls featured Taylor Swift is my current favourite song now. I wasn't really a fan of Boys Like Girls before this. After this song, now I kinda like them. Maybe because of Taylor's influence. I didn't think that Love Drunk is a cool song, but now I did.. haha.
This is 2 is Better Than 1 - Boys Like Girls ft Taylor Swift
Lyrics
I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my lifeAnd I thought hey
You know this could be something
Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing
'Cause maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two, is better than one
I remember every look upon your face,
The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste
You make it hard for breathing
'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everythings okay
And finally now, we're leaving
And maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two, is better than one
Yeah, yeah
I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life
And I thought hey
Maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinkingOooh I can't live without you
'Cause baby two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And I've figured out with all that's said and done
Two, is better than one
Two is better than one
Looking forward to her next album now... :)

Cyril Takayama!
As a child of the 80's, I grew up in the time where David Copperfield was famous. Then, I started to have interested in watching magic shows, although I didn't have much chance.
Come beyond the year 2000, I stumbled upon some clips send by others in the mail about this amazing magician. Haven't had a clue on who he was. Saw him again with "THEM." Still doesn't know his name until recently, found loads of his street performance in Japan on Youtube. He is CYRIL TAKAYAMA!
I'm really impressed with his magic abilities. He did something that I have never seen in other magicians before and I wonder how it is just an illusion and not real. I woudn't compare him to other magicians like David Blain or Criss Angel because they have different kind of magic but he is in a world on his own.
Few weeks ago, I was in a video store in Kuala Lumpur and I found a dvd on Cyril's street performance in Japan. Quickly snapped it without hesitation. In there were loads of his amazing magics which some keeps on amazed me until now. Too bad most of it in Japanese and there's no subtitles :p.
Most notable performance that he can do is bringing out burgers/food from posters and eat it, then put it back half eaten. This is my favourite. Another similar instance is that he made a tap using a marker pen and stuck it in a poster of a cola drink. The cola literally flows out when he opens the tap...and it's a real thing!
Cyril can do magic in lots of different way such as card tricks, coins, telekinesis, flying and a lot more and I can't wait to see what he has stored for us in the coming future. I wouldn't be surprised if he can do something that is really impossible.
There's not much to say on whether Cyril touched my life.. but he has set a standard of magics that I'm going to expect in the future, not only from him but also from others.
A legend in the making..or is he already one?
