Dev - Dancing Shoes

This video is hilarious and slightly doesn't match with the song. concerning only the song, it's telling about how we feel before we go to perform something. little intermezzo, I study majoring English Literature in UGM, so I get so much things to perform. on my personal thought, this song really reflects what i feel before the show.
Back to the topic, normally every performer will get nervous every time they are going to perform something. Let's see the lyric!
I'm putting on my dancing shoes tonight
Ten thousand people waiting for me
I can hear them outside from the curtain I sit behind
The drums kick in and the lights go down
My heartbeat drowns out the sound
My hands go up, I sing my song
And a thousand voices sing along

I used to lay awake
Hear a crowd roar to every word I say
Now the stars, they used to shine so bright
They were all replaced by candle lights
And it all, makes it harder to find the places that we know

I'm putting on my dancing shoes tonight
Ten thousand people waiting for me
I can hear them outside from the curtain I sit behind
The drums kick in and the lights go down
My heartbeat drowns out the sound
My hands go up, I sing my song
And a thousand voices sing along

Can you hear? Close your eyes
Hearts are racing side-by-side
For you I sing, I sing for you
For you, I wear these dancing shoes
I wear these dancing shoes

Are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Are you out there?
Can you hear me?



see? it's like you will skimming the audience to find people you know and make sure they watch you. well, the more you perform, the more you can handle your nervous. later on, i will post my performance of reciting the poetry. at that time, i was not even 75% handling my nervous. people said that my voice was trembling. however i was thanking my partners for being perfect performers, so i could hide my trembling.
