Sweet Morning

Sweet Morning 02

This is the very first song that I wrote on the Ukulele, titled 'There For Me'.

The song speaks of God being there for me even when the whole world wages war against me. God has shown me that there is a reason to live, and He's taught me to be strong. He believes in me, even when no one else does.
My dreams will become reality, some day...

There For Me

A Parody I did, of the song 'Poker Face'.


Money Face

Money Face 03

Ben Fowler & I wrote this song together while we were on a holiday in Sri Lanka, by the beach. I played the piano, while Ben played the guitar and we did not have drums, so we used our fists and elbows to hit against the wooden cupboards to create the percussion beats for the bass. We made a maracas out of rice grains and plastic bottles.

Chlorine Beach Demo #4

This song was written by Ben Fowler and me. I sang the lead vocals, and Ben sang the back up vocals. This song speaks of the enchanting sounds of the siren, enthralling one to enter another world of enchantment.

Siren Designs Demo 2

This song was written when I was in an introspective mode.
What is perfection? To climb the highest mountains? To scale the highest heights?

Philosophy of Perfection 02

'FALLING' was the first song I wrote for my band approximately 10 years ago.
I won the SPH - 'Songs I Write' Songwriting competition championship for this song back then on 7 Dec 2007. This song also won the 'Best Melody' title (2 titles were won: 1. Championship BEST English Song category 2. Best Melody award)

I wrote this song during one of my darkest times, and I was calling out to God for help in my times of loneliness and despair.

My band members back then in our band 'QUANTUM SPRING' were:

1) Joshua Agilan (Drummer)
2) Terence Lau (Bassist)
3) Alvin Ananthan (Guitarist)
4) Fritz Lim (2nd Keyboardist)
5) Zacquine Miken (me on keyboard and lead vocals)

A Big THANK YOU to all you guys of QUANTUM SPRING to have made all this happen, and especially a BIG BIG THANK YOU to Joshua my dearest drummer for having stuck through with me all these many years and for always believing in me and my music and never giving up on me. THANK YOU Joshua, for being my Buddy :D

Falling (band version)

I wrote this song in 2003/2004. This song 'CHANGING FACES' describes my frustration with having to keep up with appearances and wearing a mask in front of others. The mask wears and cracks over time.

This speaks of one's confusion and losing one's own identity.

Now I lie in Desolate Silence
Life has reached its Ultimatum
Nothing more, Nothing Gained
Perhaps Pessimism has gnawed its way
Burrowing deep into my heart
I wished I never had a part
In this stage, a masquerade
Exhaustion comes when I display...

My Changing Mask of Cracking Clay...
My Changing Mask of Cracking Clay...

Who am I? I do not know
I can never seem to please
Idealism I cannot achieve... 
No matter what I try to do
I always end up looking like a fool...
Like a fool...

People think I'm omnipotent
I question my very existence
Can everything be done one time?
My true self I cannot find
Different faces for different people
But to myself I hold no clue
What am I supposed to do?
My changing mask of cracking clay

Changing Faces

This song was written during one of my lowest point in my life. It is about falling down, and learning to pick oneself up to walk again.
