I’ve always found it weird how when someone passes, everyone acts like they knew the person- be it if they really did or not, that’s not for me to discuss. But I’ve always found it interesting how this happened.

There are those people who really did know the person. Friends, family, so on and so forth. These are the people who are truly affected- the people that really knew the person. I’ve been in this situation, where countless friends of mine have been killed in car accidents, suicide, and other occurances. But this post isn’t about me.

The grief and sadness this inner-circle of mourners suffers is undoubtedly one of the hardest things a person will ever have to feel, but it’s something everyone feels at one point.

Then there are the people who didn’t know this person directly, but felt as they did. This feeling can be in multiple ways. A year ago, Hawthorne Heights’ guitarist Casey Calvert passed. Amber Pacific recently posted a blog about this on their Myspace, and it was met with multiple people saying things such as “we miss you”, “forever in our hearts”… Granted these people have most likely never met him in their lives, at least not on a face to face or personal level. But through his music, these people may have felt they knew him as more than just a pretty face or a guitar riff on an album. They may have felt they could relate to him in some way.

These people may have also felt they relate to the person who has passed on a more emotional level. They may have felt they could relate to the person in some way, be it they were in the same programs at school, they went to the same school, or even because they were both students, possibly even in different countries. We had a girl jump out of a building on our campus last week, and since then there have been numerous people saying how it affected them, whether or not they really knew the person.

I would keep going with this right now, but I need to go take that exam. I might continue later.

As of 10:05 p.m.,  Saturday, November 22, 2008, I am going through my entire
library, organized alphabetically by artist.

Beginning with
Back In Black – AC/DC

Ending with
Track 16 -
(It’s by One Drop, but it was ripped from a normal CD that they burned to sell, and
therefore does not have the proper id3 tags to have properly named titles or artist info!)

The video can be seen here.

Vision award honorees are selected for their outstanding creativity and lifetime contributions to the community and to the Center. Despite profound vision loss from Retinitis Pigmentosa, Posen founded both Hopeless and Sub City Records, and through his businesses, he has donated more than $1.5 million dollars to charities.

“In connection with the mission of Sub City to raise awareness and funds for non-profit organizations through our operations as a record label, we are delighted to support The Center for the Partially Sighted’s 2008 Hope In Sight Gala. As an organization for which our founder and President, Louis Posen, has volunteered and worked with by mentoring others with visual impairments, we are delighted the Center has chosen to honor him and his wife Michelle at this year’s Gala.

As we grow our record business, we hope to continue to work with other non-profit organizations and help them grow along with us. Our work with the Center on this event is our way to do our part in supporting the organization’s growth and reaching its goals”

-Alan G Person, General Manager

Founder of Hopeless Records, Sub City, and Download Music and More, Los Angeles native Louis Posen has made a name for himself by combining the divergent worlds of music and charity and creating a business model where a company’s strengths, resources, and efforts are combined with its conscience.

At the age of 19, Louis was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa, a slow degenerative eye condition with no current treatment or cure. Not letting anything get in his way of his passion, Louis started in the entertainment industry in 1992 as a director & producer of music videos while attending California State University at Northridge, where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree.

Louis produced and directed numerous punk rock videos and in 1993, founded his first record company, Hopeless Records. Hopeless has gone on to help to develop such bands as Avenged Sevenfold, Thrice, Amber Pacific, and All Time Low, just to name a few, has released over 130 albums, and has sold over 3 million records, many of which have charted in the Billboard Top 200.

In 1999, the drive to combine the company’s business successes with philanthropy lead to the launch of the Sub City imprint label, which donates funds and raises awareness for various non-profit organizations. Under that wing of the business, Hopeless/Sub City has released over 30 albums, created and operated the annual Take Action Tour (celebrating its 7th year running) and now has broken one million dollars in contributions donated to various non-profit organizations.

Starting with its first charitable recipient the Foundation Fighting Blindness, chosen due to Posen’s retinal disease, Hopeless/Sub City has gone on to raise funds and awareness for more than 50 non-profit organizations including over $100,000 donated to south central Los Angeles drop-in center A Place Called Home, from the sales of the 2002 album “The Illusion of Safety.”

Louis’ most recent project has been the 2004 launch of Download Music and More, which created the first niche-specific download store, downloadpunk.com, a site offering downloadable content from unsigned artists to the latest hits. Expanding on the operation of the digital music store, the patented software is now being licensed to other partner companies looking to enter the business of selling digital products.

On a more personal note, I greatly admire Louis Posen for his friendliness and helpfulness when I was in high school. My senior project (required for graduating at my high school) was about starting a record label and despite his undoubtedly busy schedule running his labels and projects, Louis answered my questions and was fabulous for the months I was in touch with him working on my assignment. I got an A, Louis. Thank you and congratulations!

by Amber Pacific

This is for the ones who believe their lives won’t change
Hoping that someday things will mend and be the same
And this is for the ones who have lost it all
And all that’s left to gain
Is a simple reminder that the things that we’re blind to slip away

How can I say
Say I’ll be okay

And if I fall through these days that go by without cause
Just a painful mistake has left me here on my own
And if I fall through these nights I can’t seem to go on
Just a sign that you’re with me gives me the strength to hold on

Now that the line’s been broken
I’m too afraid to just look back
The pages have left an empty space
You were all I had
Why does it have to be this way
These things they’ll never change
Still I’m left with knowing, content and happy, this is all I need

And if I fall through these days that go by without cause
Just a painful mistake has left me here on my own
And if I fall through these nights I can’t seem to go on
Just a sign that you’re with me gives me the strength to hold on

And if I fall through these days that go by without cause
Just a painful mistake has left me here on my own
And if I fall through these nights I can’t seem to go on
Just a sign that you’re with me gives me the strength to hold on

_______________
I’m really into this song for the past few weeks. I’m not an emo but I loved this one. This reminds me of my pathetic situation with my special someone. The one I used to loved, but then he left me broken. Optimistically, I thought things will be fine again but then I was wrong.

“How can I say
Say I’ll be okay”

If in reality I was not.

“You were all I had
Why does it have to be this way
These things they’ll never change
Still I’m left with knowing, content and happy, this is all I need”

I find this line irresistible.

“And if I fall through these nights I can’t seem to go on
Just a sign that you’re with me gives me the strength to hold on”

Until now, he still lingers on my mind. Yes, I’m not totally over him. It’s sad to admit that after that heartrending tale between us I’m still waiting for him.

Waiting in vain. I was waiting in vain as my friends said but I know I’m not.

I believe, soon he will see my worth. All the things I made just for him. The attention I pay on him. He will value me as I valued him.

How hopeless am I?
Is this the real me?
Ohh one thing I know.

I just loved.

By the way the rhythm of this song is so relaxing. Listen to it. Here’s the link. Enjoy!

Mas por apenas um dia. Apesar de não constar no site oficial do YC, o APAC, que ainda está em fase de testes à procura de um novo vocalista para substituir Matt Young, postou a data do show no MySpace e avisou no último post do seu blog.

O show acontece no dia 5 de abril, em Portland (Oregon)!

so there’s this band Jimmy Eat World whom people mistakenly call punk rock which they are not therefore not my favorite type anyway there’s this song called “For me this is heaven”

it starts with

When the first star you see may not be a star

The first star I see may not be a star.
We can’t do a thing but wait.
So let’s wait for one more.

Nice enough eeh? The song isn’t that good though

Now here comes my one of my most favorites songs ever…konstantine…don’t even ask by whom..God…everyone knows Something Corporate

The unforgettable lines

This is for Jimmy eat world and the nights in my car

When the first star you see may not be a star

I’m not your star…isn’t that what you said?

What you thought this all meant?

Got it? They are referring Jimmy Eat World!!! Wow….personally I’m still not sure why would Andrew link this song in particular but come to think of it maybe something personal knows who…but still Jimmy Eat World?

I’m not done yet…here’s another of my recent top favorite Amber Pacific and there song Poetically Pathetic

I’m thinking of the words to say,I’d like to think that this was fate.Reference to a song you love, Spell confusion with a “K”Like a star without its strings, I’m hanging here on these two wings.For that smile and those eyes

I’m falling

So much for stars lately…LOL…

But the links are interesting aint they? Maybe someday someone will write a song referring Poetically Pathetic…LOL
