Lirik ’Please Say Yes’
Please Say Yes
lyrics and music: Joseph Saryuf
So much to tell
I’ve been dreaming about this so long
Don’t know what to say
I believe that I’m in love with u again
And you are, the one who I want to grow old with
And you are, the one who gives me joy so please say yes
And I wish you’re mine so please say yes
And I wish you’re mine
When I close my eyes
There’s a smile that makes my dreams so right
What a happy life I have
And we grow (stronger) in this busy life
Still, when we kiss and it feels like the stars are shinning bright
What you are, let me hold you again so please say yes
And I wish you’re mine so please say yes
And I wish you’re mine

rinso...
having my feet burried in the cold mud and not being able to dance while my ears captured all the sounds with a perfect details is like the most bizarre thing. I was enjoying myself tonight, and Silent Disco was awesome. Now i really need to clean up the mud from my shoes, and sleep.

Lyrics (Curiouser and Curiouser album)
Lyrics from our 'Curiouser and Curiouser' album, for you who want to sing along, enjoy!
Lirik lagu-lagu santamonica untuk yang ingin bernyanyi bersama...
Better for Us Never Don't say, don't say anything To get you out of here Butterfly in my belly tickles The temporary insanity
Of all my happy smiles Rain pours hard down inside Fireflies give me light Sadness waits in yellow sky
Chorus: Everyday I run in circle I was down with your rejection My reflection's waiting to be mine I feel so void
You've made, made it clear to me And show where I belong In the story of your life Where you put me as a joke
This flavor is now missing No need to apologize I'm drifting to my dying day Never felt this good before
Everyday I run in circle I was down with your rejection My reflection's waiting to be mine I feel so void
Bridge: Keep on guessing what I've been missing Keep on asking if this path I'm taking is right
Hearing voices long forgotten Knowing what mistakes are Too ignorant to admit one Searching for enlightenment When soberly taking another wrong step
Wanderlust A ride in my car Gleam of the eyes He smiled at me Tried not to care
A ride in my car Smiling, crooked teeth He's so unreal Wandered in doubt
Look..the complexity of my journey turned out to be Look the time is running out maybe he's not for me
A ride in my car Fixed gazed at him Fading grey shirt Taunting my heart
A ride in my car Too fast to stop Curse at my lust Tears on my cheeks
Look..the complexity of my journey turned out to be Look the time is running out maybe he's not for me
Plain Song Dear go watch the shooting star Never ever let your doubt to hold you down Dear don't let her walk away When her kisses were as sweet as lollypop
Dear fear not to fall in love When the time has come it won't bring any pain Dear stand up and flash your smile It would be the greatest gift given to her
Chorus: Why oh why you keep asking to yourself Lie and lie is the only word known to you Say oh say what really lies inside your heart Try and try never to run away again
Dear the sun will cease you fear Whenever you think that hope is out of reach Dear tears won't solve anything And the best you do is facing everything
Back to chorus
RIBBONS AND TIE All the pink ribbons Red ties and blue lashes Perfect reflection Thin smile and sweet braces
Call the freckled faces Dye and blushes Caress and kisses
Oohhhhh rain will come
Steal glance at rainbows Old fairies on green leaves Dance on assumption Red cheeks and fair graces
Shall I ask for bonbon Laid in boxes Send me some blesses
Oohhhhh rain will come
Chorus: We could fall in love like others do No one seems to know what we have here We're running so fast in order to stay We don't need fairytales we'd do it our way
Sprinkle the sparkles Mad hatter's tea parties Chase down white rabbit Make up for the mirrors
Down to magic sunrise Beat up the drums Fret to no one
Oooh rain will come
Chorus: We could fall in love Like others do No one seems to know what We have here We're running so fast In order to stay We don't need fairytales We do it our way
Fancy a lip balm Make love in the meadow Rest on the green lawn Fall into the shadow
Too high too low Too fast too slow
Descent Kill the light to grow a dream Longing for my pitch black night to fall Seek out warmth in the cradle of loneliness
Fear to share the need to care Honey comes from emptiness Misery is the only thing worth waiting
Chorus: It's high enough I'm breathing the lies I travel as far as it can go The time flies too slow Addicted to love His wiles keep me alive
To grieve for love, is trusting lies Feels so good to start again, it's true Taste the tears and now all words flow endlessly
Sunlight hurts the first of bloom Call the sea to unseen shore my love How lovely when the trace of glee is nowhere near
back to chorus
Paperdolls I am the girl who's been everywhere My feet traveled to where my heart refused to be I am the girl who's seen everything Though some that I've seen remained shut in the hidden place
You may say that I'm an ungrateful bitch You may point but decency is not my game
After the clock strikes down to five My glass slippers would finally shatter Both of my wings leave me alone Oh, how I love that time the most
Chorus: Until the last smile had vaporized Gone with the last gentleman who came to share It's time to store what's left of my heart
Oh yes you think you're the wise guy here Your eyes only look but they don't really see it I'd love to show you I have my own dreams The strength for my heart and the soul for my broken song
You may say that I'm an ungrateful bitch You may point but decency is not my game
My red lips would never say no You may detest me but save the last laugh Why try resist what you desire Soon, you will fall under my spell
back to chorus
The Boy with Stars in His Eyes What to say, you amazed me Lost in space no words to say Your voice travels so fast It takes me to different place
Charming mouth yes you bewitched me Come to me now and break the silence Show love and no more foes The distance between us soon fades away
chorus: When he smiles outshining every star in evening sky Sending warmth throughout the coldest snow in winter night Erasing doubt lies in maiden's heart, ooh he's gentle with his wand
Ooh capturing my heart
Standing on stage unawared of my feeling for him Capturing my heart as soon as his voice touching mind
Fail to Bloom Nobody's child You're the last Nobody's child Here come to rest
Be still it's a will the womb becomes a tomb it's refused to grow to follow the same path of what to become my tired earth
Lyrics from our special edition album (Tinkerwish)
Anais Lullaby Staring at clouds passing by They're milky white with silver sparkles Counting on the falling leaves For such a beauty to come my way
My nights with moon and stars My days grow under the sun My ears full of sparrows singing With lips bearing the words of loveliness
You're my birth of poetry And I'm the soft whisper of wind Floating on the tranquil lake Since you're my rainbow after the storm
My nights with moon and stars My days grow under the sun My ears full of sparrows singing With lips bearing the words of loveliness
Rain stops falling when you smile Angels come as the day begins Stars will sleep with my lullaby Blooming life all my love for you
Tinkerwish Away away and dream away And sleep and sleep do not wake up Away away and dream away And sleep and sleep do not wake up
chorus: I love you I love you I love you in silence I love you I love you I love you in silence I like it I like it I like it when you're asleep I like it I like it I like it when you're asleep
speech: I'm only sane when you're quiet When your eyes are perfectly closed When the world's making so much noise And your heartbeats making music in my ears The Boy (reprise) The boy with the stars in his eyes Standing on the stage, capturing my heart Instantly when his voice touching mind
When he smiles outshining every star in evening sky Sending warmth throughout the coldest snow in winter night Erasing fear lies in maiden's heart, he's gentle with his wand
What to say ooh you amazed me What to say ooh you amazed me
Standing on stage unawared of my feeling for him Capturing my heart as soon as his voice touching mind
DEW I wanna relish the moment when we're lying in my bed smoking watched the sun rising and inhaling each other's scents
Open the windows and let the breeze touch our skin Open your eyes let's make it worth waiting
chorus: Your whispers were spellbinding Your kisses infatuating Your caress was my oasis
Your whispers were bewitching Your kisses mesmerized me Your caress was my oasis
When I gently touched your hair I could feel you're shivering As you moved your body closer I could teel that love had come
Open the windows and let the breeze touch our skin Open your eyes let's make it worth waiting
back to chorus

PRESS RELEASE ALBUM SANTAMONICA “CURIOUSER AND CURIOUSER”
Setelah melalui penantian dua tahun lamanya, album penuh perdana Santamonica yang berjudul 'Curiouser and Curiouser' telah dirilis pada tanggal 19 November 2007 dibawah bendera Sinjitos Records. Peluncuran album ini menyusul mini album '189' yang dirilis pada bulan September 2005 yang lalu, dan telah terjual sebanyak 1,000 kopi dengan penjualan yang terbatas.
Di album ini, Santamonica memperkaya musik mereka dengan berbagai ekslorasi sound dan memasukkan unsur-unsur electro-pop, jazz, dan progressive rock ke dalam warna indie pop dan bossanova yang telah menjadi ciri khas mereka. Melalui sepuluh lagu di dalam album ini, Santamonica tidak hanya meredefinisi musik mereka sendiri, namun sekaligus meredefinisi musik pop secara keseluruhan. 'Curiouser and Curiouser' adalah sebuah petualangan audio dan eksplorasi musik pop yang harus didengarkan secara personal untuk bisa dinikmati seutuhnya.
Hadirnya nuansa yang lebih gelap dan eerie sangat terasa di album ini, walaupun warna manis dan optimis masih mendapat porsi di lagu seperti 'Ribbons And Tie' dan 'Plain Song'. Untuk mendapatkan nuansa tersebut, Santamonica banyak melakukan eksperimen dalam proses rekaman mereka dengan menggunakan vokal multi-layer, maksimalisasi fuzz noise dan penggunan analog synthesizer.
Dari segi orientasi lirik, eksplorasi yang lebih dalam dilakukan dengan memasukkan berbagai tema, seperti perbandingan kisah realita dan imajinasi berbalut humor gelap pada 'Wanderlust'; kisah seorang pekerja seksual pada 'Paper Dolls', ketakutan massal pada 'Silent Society', serta ironi dan harapan di lagu-lagu lainnya. Porsi cinta masih memiliki tempat, hanya dengan atmosfir yang lebih gelap, sesuai dengan tema keseluruhan album ini. Selain kisah nyata dan sehari-hari, Santamonica banyak mengambil inspirasi lirik dari buku-buku karangan Lewis Carroll dan Phillip K Dick, serta film-film favorit mereka seperti Un Chien D'Andalou, Rosemary's Baby, Suspiria, The Shining maupun film animasi klasik Disney.
Single pertama mereka, 'Wanderlust' telah diputar perdana pada bulan September 2007 di beberapa stasiun radio ternama di Jakarta dan Bandung, dengan sambutan yang menggembirakan. 'Ribbons and Tie' yang merupakan single ke-dua bahkan menduduki peringkat pertama di chart musik lokal, radio Istara Surabaya. Selain mendapat sambutan yang positif, album 'Curiouser and Curiouser' juga menerima banyak pujian dan review dari berbagai kalangan baik di dalam dan luar negeri.
Video klip untuk single Wanderlust digarap oleh tiga sutradara, yaitu Dibyokusumo, Rudi Hatumena, dan Anton Ismael. Klip ini akan diputar di beberapa stasiun televisi nasional tak lama setelah album 'Curiouser and Curiouser' dirilis. Rencananya video klip untuk single ke-dua dan ke-tiga akan diluncurkan awal tahun 2008 sebagai bagian dari program promosi album perdana ini.
