I was trying to get a few extra winks after sahur this morning but could not get 'em (due to my brain being really active this morning) & decided to get online. Then "Y! " showed a piece of music news on "Hippie song makes music industry history". Instantly, I knew that this was Jason Mraz's catchy and laid back tune "I'm Yours" from his We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things album.
It is now officially the longest running record on the Billboard 100 Chart with 71 consecutive weeks beating "How Do I Live" by Leann Rimes which held the previous record for 69 weeks. I myself like the song and it always brings back good memories when listening to it. It holds a special place in my heart and also our family.
"I'm Yours" was the official anthem for my lil' brother's, Kimi wedding last year. Even during my wedding this year, my whole family asked "Apa lagu tema along tahun ni?" (What is your theme song gonna be Along?).
Kimi is now in London & Evereux for work related training since early June & ibu got hold of the news recently that he might not be able to celebrate Eidulfitri or Hari Raya with us. Somehow like on que, her phone rang & "I'm Yours" started playing (her ringtone for our family members). She shed a few tears while answering the call from my other lil' brother Mizi, which made Mizi cried too (he's such a softy..well we all are).Hope Kimi can give ibu & us some good news by this week & get his scrawny annoying, lame ass jokes behind back in time for Hari Raya.
In the mean time, we will always have you close, my brother when "I'm Yours" starts playing.
