Its silly how i found you
through a 17+ anime cartoon
while searching for away to pass a lazy afternoon
my browser pulled a samurai cartoon
when the intro hip hop beat came on
i was in complete shock
i never heard a opening anime them with such groove ,such soul, that rocked !
i played the theme 10 times before watching the actual show
and i said to myself
Whose the genius wrote this?! this i have to know !
i searched and search YouTube until i couldn't search no more
then a song came up i never heard before
Counting stars by Nujabes!
i was so exited i quickly clicked the link
and before i had time to think
I swept away by a melody that made soul weep
such a simple melody with awesome with an amazing hip hop beat!
and before the song was fully complete
i hit the replay button to make it repeat .
Aquarian Dance, Psychological Counterpoint, Mystline
blew my musical mind !
then i read the comments on YouTube others left behind
even then i didn't want to believe it
i wanted to believe they were deceived a bit
but there was it was in black and white
but still I checked again
you died after a car accident in February 2010.
i never heard musician make music quite like you
now I'll never be able to tell you
what inspiration your
music gave to me
made me want to become musician just like you
but make music as soulful and cool as you
is something i want to do
and if I'm half as good as you I'll be happy till my life is through
Thank you for teaching what music is
