copycat

Don't go changing, to try and please me, 

You never let me down before,

Don't imagine, you're too familiar,

And I don't see you anymore.

I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are.

Don't go trying, some new fashion
Don't change the colour of your hair,
You always have my, unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care.

I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew,
What will it take till you believe in me,
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the hea

I couldn't love you, any better

I love you just the way you are

          While  driving home from work this evening LITE FM channel played a song JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.Dah lama aku tidak mendengar lagu ini.Suara lunak penyanyinya Billy Joel mengalunkan lagu ini bukan sahaja mengundang pelbagai memori di fikiranku,even it have the implied meaning behind this song.The song was simply expressing a feeling of love because the characteristics of the woman he loves.

           Setiap orang suka pada keaslian dan ketulinan.Tapi kenapa mesti ada “Peniru” atau yang sering kita sebut “Copycat”? Apakah  mereka tidak punyai idea kreatif sendiri untuk berkarya,lalu sanggup meniru,menciplak hak orang lain?Tema dan perkataan  yang diambil untuk diadaptasikan pula dalam tulisan peniru juga kadang-kadang boleh meimbulkan tanda-tanya penulis asal. Namun meniru sesuatu yang positif  tidak ada salahnya.
Meniru daripada orang yang kita rasakan lebih pandai daripada kita. Bukankah itu yang selalu kita lakukan? Biarpun kita sendiri tidak tahu apa yang dia lakukan betul atau tidak,we just continue imitate and follow......
            
           Imitating the style atau bergaya ala-ala P.Ramlee misalnya  juga merupakan suatu plagiat yang biasa kita lihat.Plagiat penampilan individu idol kita.Siapapun yang kita tiru dan ikut,seharusnya kita jujur pada diri kita sendiri.Then back to our own originality....


    





Laman rindu : Honesty-Billy Joel juga sedap didengar.
