Whitney Houston meninggal…

Duh, gue serasa udah kayak kehilangan teman seperjuangan *belaga gila*

Shock dan sedih gitu gue sepanjang hari….

Siapa coba yang gak kenal sama Whitney Houston. Itu si Osama Bin Laden yang segitu fanatik dan extreme Islam-nya, kabarnya aja suka sama Whitney Houston. Bahkan bercita-cita pingin nikahin Tante Whitney…

Sama seperti waktu Michael Jackson meninggal. Berhari-hari gue pasang lagunya si Michael di computer gue. Begitu juga pas Whitney Houston meninggal…

Dari gue kecil, gue udah suka sama Whitney Houston. Gue terpesona sama suaranya dia yang indah itu. Hampir semua lagu-lagu nya Tante Whitney gue hapal.

Kenapa ya setiap penyanyi2 besar yang legendaris meninggal, pasti gue merasa nelangsa…seolah-olah pernah tetangga-an atau pernah ngopi-ngopi bareng….padahal mah kenal juga kagak…

Wajar gak sih? Atau gue terlalu lebay? Ahh bodo lah….tapi ini beneran kok. Gak di drama-dramain.

Mungkin nanti kalo Bono, Sting, Phil Collins, Tante Madonna, Mick Jagger, Oom Stevie Wonder atau penyanyi legendaris lainnya meninggal, pasti gue akan merasa nelangsa juga….

Padahal udah cita-cita gue tuh, pingin banget gue nonton konsernya Tante Whitney…kalo kebetulan dia nemplok di Asia. Ternyata gagal….

Yah, like it or not, people die eventually….

Well, Tante Whitney….may you rest in peace. And I bet you will create another great songs together with Michael, up there….and cheer up the heaven with your amazing voice....

So, salah satu lagunya Tante Whitney yang lagi terngiang-ngiang di kepala *dan kebetulan juga lagi nyambung sama suasana hati gue, nyeheheheeheh.....* sekarang adalah ini:

Mariii kita nyanyi bersama…..

All at once,
I finally took a moment and I'm realizing that
You're not coming back
And it finally hit me all at once

All at once,
I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell
My eyes began to swell,
And all my dreams were shattered all at once

Chorus:
Ever since I met you
You're the only love I've known
And I can't forget you
Though I must face it all alone

All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea (notsee)
Wishing you'd come back to me
And that's all that matters now
All at once, I'm drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it hurts me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once

All at once,
I looked around and found that you were with another love
In someone else's arms,
And all my dreams were shattered, all at once
All at once
The smile that used to greet me brightened someone else's day
She took your smile away
And left me with just memories, all at once

All at once im drifting on a lonely sea,
wishing youd come back to me,
and it hurts me more then (than) you know,
so much more THAN it shows,
all at once
and thats all that matters now
all at once
and im drifting on a lonely sea......

Whitney Houston : 9 August 1963 - 11 February 2012
