At The End of The Day

Sumpah benerannya gw gak mau nulis entri ini… Tapi daripada gw berbusa-busa curhat separo-separo di BB tentang Adam Levine yang so fine itu mending gw puas-puasin nulis seblog tentang dia.

Buat cowok-cowok, terutama yang berasa pengagum gw, consider this a warning, click ke mana kek daripada muntah-muntah baca entri yang eni…

As I’ve said, it was an embarrassment that it took me two albums and a span of almost five years to know what a fine specimen Adam was.

I first saw him, really saw him - I should say, while watching American Idol Season 6 where he performed the new single, Makes Me Wonder.

I’ve got RCTI to thank for still not knowing who he was until a couple of weeks afterward. Due to the length of the real show, RCTI cut it here and there to accommodate it into the supposedly two hour show. Which was why I was not introduced to the delicious hunk who dressed so nicely and sang one of the grooviest songs I’ve heard so far in this year.

I watched that episode twice to try and find out who in the hell is that guy but no… Nobody seemed to want to tell me who he was.

And touchingly, it was a male student who caused me to find out.

We were waiting for the others to show up and he innocently asked me, "Miss, do you know the title of the new Maroon 5’s song? You know the one that was on American Idol?"

Playing it cool, I said,"Yeah, it was good, right? Unfortunately I don’t know the title either." All the while rapidly cursing myself, That was Maroon 5, you moron, how come you profess to like their songs when you could barely recognise the lead singer?

That was a hit with my colleagues when I returned to the Teachers’ Room and told them about it.

And still it took me sometime before I got around to buying the album and yet some more period of time to really listen to the whole album.

I was reading a too absorbing novel to do what I like to do when listening to the music, namely replaying the track I loved over and over again, instead of listening to the whole thing.

So there he went, singing track after track and I suddenly realised, Hey, everything’s good in this CD.

I put down my novel, listened to She Will Be Loved and realised anew what a seductive song it was. Add Adam to the mix and of course, women will invariably melt.

So sorry to say that it again took me sometime to find Won’t Go Home Without You. Gosh, I adore that song. (I have even ‘educated’ Faridha to like that one, too.) Whenever he sang, "I won’t go home without you," I’d reply, much to the revulsion of my friends, "I feel the same, believe me… don’t go home without me…"

My, I feel so young again. Ha.

The internet seems to share my hunger for the sight of him. Naturally there are more than enough Maroon 5 stuff out there but as far as pictures go, it is the fine Mr Levine who dominates the space.

I like his sophisticated appearance and those eyes and that look which somehow translates into a mattress and tangled bedsheets… but still this is the picture that hooked me. Hooked me good and proper.

Again, it took me some time to finally get hold of this picture. Originally it was tagged so any random fans such as myself couldn’t simply right-click and save it. It was a good thing my sister has somehow successfully hammered some HTML knowledge into me that I finally got the damn picture. Should you like to see it in its original size, click here.
