Post by: sir_tsarlz on September 15, 2000, 07:42:56 PM: great great music. i'm convinced that cynthia's the philippine's queen of acoustic guitar. rate this album a nine.
------------------

i listened 2 the cd first @ music1 b4 i bought the album.i was glad 2 find lyrics printed on the in-lay card. b4 i knew it i was tapping my fingers and moving my body to the melodies. but because my budget was low(i only receive allowance) i opted for the cassette tape. i excitedly went home. in my room i ripped the plastic. guess what?! no lyrics on the in-lay card. aughhhh!!!why? why? why?..cynthia?

Maybe you can write n/a records and they can send you the cd booklet or something. see http://www.narecords.com

Yeah, but they're on the CD sleeve anyway! Maybe it's a sneaky incentive to buy the CD :)

Post by: sir_tsarlz on September 23, 2000, 01:46:42 PM: no lyrics on cynthia's website. there used to be a page meant 4 the lyrics. i tried to click it be4 but was empty. i thought it was just under construction. now, they've reformatted the website and the lyrics page is gone. well, here's the chorus of "DAisy CHain" that still lingers in my mind.

"Do you need somebody
Do you need someone
Who will make the sunset
Last forever
Who will daisy chain you
To the summer"

if anybody finds a source 4 the album lyrics please email me: sir_tsarlz79@eudoramail.com. THanKS!

You have not anything.

i remember mike pedero sampled this one when we were doing a workshop..
sabi ko ganda ng mix, comment nya lubog daw boses ni cynthia.. hehehe .. which was true din , he did a simple eq'ing and the vocals were suddenly more upfront although syempre mixed down na yun eh.. so pati iba damay.. hehehe

i'm guessing this was the artist's preference ;)
