Love Hopelessly...
YouTube is A-absolutely-awesome-astounding-Mazing!
Seriously. You can find all manner of videos there. So after watching 'PRIME' for what HAD TO BE the 8,298,209th time (oh yes, I can watch movies I love over and over and OVER... Dee can attest to that - while tut-tutting and rolling his eyeballs at me and all), and falling in love with scene after scene again & again & again, I was spurred to do a video search of Rachael Yamagata's (oooh, I love her!) rendition of 'I Wish You Love' because that song was ABSOTIVELY apt for the last scene, which, j'adore. And by the way, to those who have seen this movie, don't you agree that the ending was sooo darn appropriate? And to those who haven't, for the love of God, GO SEE IT ALREADY! Sheesh. How many times do I have to repeat this over blogosphere?
So, anyway. YouTube. I managed to find not only the song, but my favourite scene along with it! I thank the person who put it up, who is what - spanish? Well, muchos gracias to that amigo!
What can I say - I am a completely and utterly (and embarrassingly) HOPELESS romantic. Someone should tag me that superlative on Facebook already. Speaking of FB superlatives, more on that in another entry! Soonish!
And here's a slower rendition which I also love:
I WISH YOU LOVE
I wish you bluebirds in the spring
To give your heart a song to sing
And then a kiss, but more than this
I wish you love
And in July a lemonade
To cool you in some leafy glade
I wish you health
But more than wealth
I wish you love
My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be
So with my best
My very best
I set you free
I wish you shelter from the storm
A cozy fire to keep you warm
But most of all when snowflakes fall
I wish you love

OOooh yes, this is a lovely song. i highly recommend Lisa Ono's rendition.
Hey...me loves this song too... but never hv heard of this rendition... and err.. what is PRIME? Man, I feel like I have been living in the Dark Ages since Jared arrived... :-P
Ya I love Yamagata!!!!!!!!
I started listening to her in 2003 or 2004. Bought her CD from Borders which was promoting it on their racks. Had a listen and fell in love with her raspy, hot chocolate smooth vocals.
We went to her live performance in Singapore last year and she is so down to earth and funny . She kept laughing at one point coz her voice cracked and she apologized charmingly. The audience was besotted by her. We could not queue for her autograph though as we were rushing off.
Ian surprised me with the tickets. I had wanted to get the tickets way earlier but he was concerned about budget and timing. So I thought we were not going. Then he surprised me. It was so funny coz I swore I heard him ask if I wanted to watch "Letters from Hiroshima". I was quite the crank that day and went "mmm...orh", "As if you were not interested." - he later added.
So closer to the time of the show, when I called and asked him which cinema, he was so bemused. "I SAID RACHEL YAMAGATA LAH! No wonder you sounded like you were not interested!" ROFL.
